Ah no that's a shame, Reno would have been in the sequal as well - at least in the original game the Turks were around right up until the destruction of midgar

Damn that's horrible

Well that's a heart breaker

That news sucked to hear when it happened. He was such a talented VA. Personally my favorite role of his was Leorio in Hunter X Hunter.

Amém

Thank u

He's probably my favorite Turk although they're all great honestly. Especially in the remake. Can't wait to see what they did to Elena in part 2.

he is straight out of Kingdom hearts lol

it's not a 100% antagonist, if you had seen the film you can understand

Kaneki Ken if you’re talking about advent children then nope you’re wrong Reno was never meant to be a joke character

Omg my exact thoughts lmao

The Dorok Tribe seriously! Totally unexpected.

The original game Reno was always more of a threat. I really don't understand how anyone, especially Nomura during movie production, got the idea that he was somehow this wild rambunctious kid that could barely fight. He fights your party plenty of times. And he always carried that air of someone laid back and chill, but a person you absolutely wouldn't want to fuck with because he would not hesitate to kill you dead the moment he felt so inclined or was ordered. I mean he's a Turk after all, and the whole draw about them was that they were Shinra's black-ops agents and professional killers. Not to mention this is the deadliest Turk we saw when we played the original game in fact, because this was the guy that dropped the sector 7 plate (not to mention murdered Corneo in cold blood for daring to capture a Turk and annoy him on his vacation). Glad to see at least the remake is doing a good job of capturing that air of serious danger and threat about them. They were always supposed to be those guys that appeared "cool" (sharp suits, snappy tune, shades, etc.) not like complete idiots, Elena aside. At least Reno's back to being a laid back but sarcastic, savage killer rather than a buttmonkey.

@@fuckgoogle4405 You should get more likes. Not to mention, I think a lot of people don't remember, or don't even realize that Reno is the 2nd-in-command just below Tseng in Turks, if that alone doesn't tell you that he has more than beyond the slack-off, playboy-ish appearance, then you need to look harder. Unfortunately due to AC's popularity, a lot of people just think of him as this goofy character instead :/

@@fuckgoogle4405 they changed Reno pressing the button to Rude though.

LMAO that part kills me

You don't fight reno in the original

@@choyomianhae3555 what i was gonna say... people are just misremembering i guess

@@magicalgirl4 a lot of people actually haven't played it but say they have so I'm not surprised, but yea it is a old ass game so probably they forgot a few things 😂

You don't fight him in OG here (though I think that you really should have) but that was still funny.

He put up an extremely good fight he just got his ass kicked because of his arrogance later on he does much better against both Cloud, Tifa and Barret together.

Cardboard Calamity “No shit” -Cloud 2020

it's just a liver spread

I think that’s the theme for all the Turks in the game, I think Rude had the same theme later on in the game

XxLyn-zxX they nailed Reno

I didn't like how they changed Reno's personality into a joke character in AC. The remake made him a very menacing enemy to Cloud and Avalanche

Geek freak114 I didn’t either, but I understood that they wanted some kind of comic relief but I personally didn’t think Reno should have been the guy for it.

Bro FF7 remake timeline is before AC . That's why.

Fresh Beginnings I think in the original he definitely seemed more relaxed but could be a smart ass when he felt like it, like when he walked on the flowers but then told the troops not too. I liked him in AC don’t get me wrong. I think the remake has done a great job with his character, maybe in the next part while he’s on vacation we can see a different side of him.

Aerith cares a lot for the Turks and so are they to her.

@Georgia Andrea If that's true, then doesn't that mean that Aerith (or Tifa) are going to stop Cloud from trying to kill the Turks the next time they meet (whether it's where they fought them in the original game or new boss battle like they did with Reno and Rude)? Cloud made it very clear (in the remake) that has no issue cutting people down (if they'll cause trouble) and wanted to get rid of the Turks by trying to kill them on multiple occasions, only to be stopped by Aerith or the Whispers protecting them. Considering the fact the Whispers are gone now, along with Cloud have more reason to get rid of anyone related to the Turks thanks to the Sector 7 plate drop, I don't think Cloud is willing to let them go the next time they meet unless someone stops him.

@@shadowsaber4566 Yet in the OG they never killed each other even though they met and fought quite a few times. They just have a weird relationship, just like what Reno said last time they met in Midgar.

@Georgia Andrea You got a good point. Looking back on it, it's actually is kind of weird that neither side tried to kill the other. Sure, they ended up being sort-of allies in the end, but there wasn't any indication of them being like that before that. Along with the fact that (unless I missed it) anyone of Cloud's group didn't show disdain or anger towards Reno (he pressed the button in the original) next time they met him (or towards the Turks) outside of Midgar.

It was supposed to be a hint of sass by the Turks but I don't understand why they made them a complete joke in AC. Bullshit move from the writers.

Yeah, there are VERY few SOLDIER 1C's, and all of them are well-known. (Sephiroth, Angeal, Zack etc.) On the other hand, Reno admitted as much that Cloud seemed to give off the right vibe, with a "weird personality" and the Mako eyes, so it's just possible by the end of the fight Reno genuinely thought, "Woah... Maybe he WAS telling the truth and there was another cadre of First Class SOLDIERS I wasn't aware of."

@@Zaxares nah, Reno's still snarky about it in the helicopter scene, lol - "First class", quote on quote. He's a Turk, so I am going to assume he knows more about how to identify SOLDIERS. Because he wasn't wrong.

If anyone would have known the SOLDIERs it would have been the turks who directly worked with them especially Tseng, Reno believed he was SOLDIER but definitely not first he should have called him out on it more

Cloud does say later in the original game that physically he is like soldier first class because of the whole "jenova- sephiroth cloning " thing

@@Zaxares At least in the original continuity, there were a lot more first classes, as shown in the random encounters against them later in the game (we'll have to see if that gets changed in this version, though). There's a small number of them, but it's not in the single digits like the named important ones. Reno's disbelief was more likely because first classes ARE still very rare, and finding a random person inside a random place claiming to having formerly been one immediately seems unbelievable, especially given how claiming to be an ex-SOLDIER seems like the type of thing mercenaries and bodyguards might lie on their resume about to puff themselves up. It'd be like going to a McDonalds and starting a conversation with the guy on the next table over, only for him to tell you that he's on the President's secret service when the discussion turns to jobs. It's technically possible, but so unlikely that nearly everyone would call bullshit.

But boss that's what you just did!

They're ruined

YOU'RE GONNA CATCH HOLY HELL!

he did the same thing with johnny earlier in the game

Wasn't Johnny a friend of theirs as Children? I think I heard that somewhere, SOLIDER must really mess people up.

@@claudevalentine8657 (I know, this is old as hell) I'm not sure where you heard that, because they definitely make it clear that Cloud has zero clue who Johnny is, and Johnny doesn't recognise him either.

Yeah that was my problem I went in and was just going after his ass

Also equipping fire materia linked with the elemental enhancer materia on your sword makes quick work of the shinra guards before the one on one fight.

Barrier makes it a lot easier

I loved the turk battles

This boss is a major game killer. It's the boss that like 90% of people quit the game on. Every godamn final fantasy has one. Try playing FF8 you'll just cry and throw out the game.

He is not evil, he's just doing his job, anything that isn't recorded by his job, he becomes a different person, and once the Turks are gone for Advent Children, he is a different person. He has no grudge against Cloud, even helps him, even helps him more than once in the original game.

Other way around; Axel was based on Reno.

Yes. This right here. That's what happened.

He doesn't have those fighting abilities/powers because after the whole lifestream stopping meteor and all that their infrastructure was messed up and nobody was going to go back to draining the planet to make materia. No materia means no super cool abilities. It's only because Cloud had some stockpiled in a case after defeating Sephiroth that the bad guys were able to steal them and use them to give themselves badass fighting powers. So Reno could only use his normal human fighting abilities and explosives in the movie.

Literally everyone is aware of this.

Only in Final Fantasy, apparently I'm not the only one

Same lol Then I parried the shit outta him

Tbh in the original he was my first defeat also when he pyramid my whole party, I only found out to break it by mistake

Same. The first foe whom teaches you that not all enemies in this game are mere punching bags.

@@tanhongyi7180 and I learned that lesson well

Yeah that's what made his defeat lol

I feel bad for Angeal man. Look at what happened to his Sword

​@@MariusBoss11458 His sword was used to save the world. (Though it really is extremely sad. Seeing the buster sword in AC breaks my heart, every time.)

Well you aren't wrong

Ikr especially rude, playing the original I always envisioned him as a quiet surly badass who takes his job seriously and to a T but in the movie him and Reno are comic reliefs 🙄

He doesn't really have a job to lose in AC. Here, ShinRa is still in full power, thus he can't afford to be a total jokester.

I didn't see Reno and Rude as comic reliefs in AC. I saw them as two guys trying to build themselves and the company up after feeling like they screwed it all up and let others down. In the book before AC they also wanted people to see them in a better light since they need people to trust the shinra company again and they did have regrets. They also didn't have materia so their fighting wasn't going to be as strong in AC. In my opinion a character can be a badass and still occasionally be comedic and it just adds layers to the character since they had to change a bit because of circumstances, I wouldn't say they butchered his character. Reno is one of my favorites, I very much like Remake Reno, he's super cool and super sexy. 👍

i was looking for this comment! looked awesome

I doubt it’ll happen, but I’d love to see them make a reference in Part II. Where someone calls out to Reno and he says “that’s my name.” 😅

this is definitely meant to confuse people. the thing is, she might just know because hes so similar to zack. if you play canonically, cloud uses only the buster sword (check the prerendered cutscenes towards the end) and aerith would almost definitely connect him to zack

Where is this displayed?

not quite...

RaulSouza before they go to wall market

Shadow426 I had the other sword equipped during this cut scene. So....

@@andrewjames7438 canonically you don't switch weapons

This Reno feels like a mix of both. And to be honest the whole game has a mix of the original 97 OC essence with a lot of Advent's Children influence. Probably what Tetsuya wanted.

I love them both too! I remember loving Reno and Rude in the movie and they were my favourite characters. When playing this version of him I also really enjoyed it, they did really well with his character

Yes! I can see how he is second in command here and I like his sass. I wish they brought a bit more sass in though.

Yunel I got around to watching ACC a few weeks ago and honestly, I’m on the same boat as you. I completely understand why some fans are really iffy about the film, especially with how the characters are handled. But, yeah. I like both versions of Reno. Here (and probably in the original game. Never played it.), I get a threat from him and he’s suppose to be second in command of the Turks? I personally like the badass, lowkey commanding vibe from Reno in the remake. He’s even more fun and enjoyable to watch. ❤️

There's literally like....1 comment about the game not being turn based.

Speak Louder There’s actually two comments about the game itself, not just the turn-based one. Don’t try to downplay it.
