Played through Yuffie's story to prep for Rebirth, and boy howdy glad I sure did!
The long and short of it this side story fucking rules, combat in the remake is still good, graphics are breathtaking, music is peak, and I'm dying to get my hands on Rebirth already. I think a bit of a disappointment is that you're so railroaded overall, you can't explore the set pieces as much as I'd like. Been so long I found myself annoyed I didn't have a jump button. Game makes you interact with it on its terms. For a game as cinematic and presentation-oriented as it is, I get it. All in all a dope side story that I wish was slightly cheaper for what it is, but an excellent refresher to get myself ready for the next major title.
Also Fort Condor is actually fun this time around so insane W
