The prequels did not /hurt/ the series or plot in anyway. Why are people so adamant about hating hem just because they was written by Lucas? Not calling anyone out but the reason for all the Prequels hate seems really stupid to me.
Like seriously his point in the story didn't do anything but bolster the events of IV-VI, why is everyone so adamant about hating him cause hes unnecessary?
You don't/need/ milk in your cereal to enjoy it. But does it /really/ hurt you if its in there? No.
Unless youre lactose intolerance but there's substitutes for that.
People are passionate about the things they enjoyed the first time. Adding things that can greatly detract from the original intention will rile people. You're telling me that Sephiroth is completely excused from his response because Master Drive fucked with his brain. That cheapens the original "hero learns of his twisted past, is forever changed by it" story that was being told. Sephiroth goes from insane, unrepentant victim of circumstance with reprehensible (but maybe even relatable) recourse and instead becomes "lol popstar did it."
