''
Generally considered the weakest of the ''Compilation Of [[Final Fantasy VII]]'', and has been criticized for camera, control and targeting issues and lack of difficulty. Its story has garnered mixed reviews.
''DOC'' takes place one year after ''[[Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children|Advent Children]]'' and infamously creates a tie-in with ''[[Crisis Core]]'', released afterwards but canonically taking place before the original game. Said tie-in involves J-Pop star [[Gackt]] in a rare (for video games) live-action cameo.

* [[100% Completion]]: Doing all the missions and shooting all the little tubes to unlock everything.
Line 53:
* [[Department of Redundancy Department]]: As the [[Let's Play]] was fond of pointing out, "Nero the Sable", "Azul the Cerulean", and "Rosso the Crimson" literally translate to "Black the Black", "Blue the Blue", and "Red the Red", respectively.
** Weiss the Immaculate [[Genius Bonus|might count]], as immaculate deals with purity, a theme commonly represented by the color white in Western cultures. Only Argento and Shelke avoid this (Argento doesn't have a title as far as we know and amber is a translucent fossil resin, usually a deep yellowish-orange in color, not clear and transparent).
* [[
* [[Difficulty by Region]]: The US release removed the Easy setting, changed the Limit Breaks to items, reduced the number of max slots per item and the money that can be obtained by selling them, and tweaked the enemy AI. On the other hand, it did improve the camera controls and increased Vincent's speed by 20% (American audiences can only boggle at how the original version must have played).
* [[Difficulty Levels]]: On Hard, opening the menu doesn't stop the action. Yet, you're allowed to keep all your weapons and items from a previous "Normal Mode" game.
Line 76:
* [[Fire, Ice, Lightning]]: Materia. Nothing has elemental weaknesses, the only difference is how the spell acts.
* [[Full-Name Basis]]: Shelke always calls Vincent by his full name.
* [[Gag Sub]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20110319012233/http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedarkid/videos/1/ This trailer.]
* [[Gameplay and Story Segregation]]: Cutscene Vincent is an agile and athletic superhuman killing machine. Gameplay Vincent is befuddled by [[Insurmountable Waist High Fence|anything taller than a garbage can]].
* [[Gender Blender Name]]: Not intentionally, but seeing as Rosso and Argento are ''women'', their names should ''really'' be Rossa and Argentea (the feminine Italian equivalents).
Line 108:
* [[Limit Break]]: Available as an item this time round.
* [[Lost Technology]]: Cid reveals he found the ''Shera'' buried in a cave underground, already constructed and more-or-less operational. This may be a [[Shout-Out]] to ''[[Final Fantasy VI]]'' and how Setzer recovers the ''Falcon'', as well as the ''[[Final Fantasy]]'' tradition of having the heroes find relic airships from another age.
** As mentioned in the game's intro, the big celebration taking place in Kalm is in recognition of the "Worldwide Network" being brought back online. Yes, they're celebrating getting the internet back for the first time in three years. At least [[Square Enix]] knows its
* [[Mad Scientist]]: {{spoiler|Hojo, of course}}, and {{spoiler|Lucrecia, [[
* [[Mana Meter]]
* [[Masashi Hamauzu]]: Composed part of the music.
Line 151:
* [["The Reason You Suck" Speech]]: Azul delivered one to Shelke while preparing to grind her bones.
* [[The Spartan Way]]: Shelke describes Deepground as "a hell far deeper than any you could imagine". The backstory is pretty hellish for many of the characters.
* [[Token
* [[Turned Against Their Masters]]: The Tsviets, in the backstory.
* [[Two Shots From Behind the Bar]]: Vincent can retrieve the Hydra rifle in Edge from behind a bar inside a deserted building.
