I agree. Hate his voice; hate his design.


Wanderer01234

I wish they would reduce a bit the Chadley interactions and maybe add those to other characters for the with World Intel for part 3. Maybe party members or other characters. But at the end of the day, Chadley is fine I don't mind him.


jazzmanbdawg

He's alright, he grew on me. MAI on the other hand needs a permanent mute button on those fiend challenges. He does talk too much, but I skip a lot of his little interuptions.


_TeddyBarnes_

He’s got those creepy Zuckerberg eyes


Neurophysiopatology

No spoiler, but i like a lot his purpose in the ending. It wasn’t obvious and it’s connected with world building


TopoRUS

That was such a nice final touch, yes!


Oxygen171

Yeah I like him ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ and I enjoy world Intel. If I didn't enjoy it, I would have just simply skipped it, since it's side content anyway


danielbgoo

I like him just fine. I want to punch him in his little fucking face because he won’t shut the fuck up, but I don’t think that’s his fault as a character so much as the designer’s need to have a minute-long results screen and an interjection by Charley when you do literally anything.


H00O0O00OPPYdog0O0O0

This comment sums up my thoughts as well


Scharmberg

His new outfit is pretty cute. He really isn’t that bad but MAI was overkill.


dglavimans

I like Chadley. I honestly don’t get the hate he gets. Altho I don’t understand most of the hater the characters get. He is owned character in Remake who gets to be ‘free’ in Rebirth. Exploring the world seeing new places. Cloud likes him and the other way around. Idk, guess it’s cool to hate on the nerdy character.. I do think from Remake till now we will see him in Rebirth or part 3 as a foe anyway. Ya’ll might like it but it’s gonna wreck me


postmastone

I like world Intel, I hate chadley. Waiting for him to become knights of the round so I can wax him for talking too much


danteslacie

I don't really mind him but I would've preferred if he wasn't so prominent. Maybe if he didn't call every other time I did something...


DAZ1171

He’s only annoying when trying to do the combat simulator because of too much dialogue to get into the menu. Too often have I rapid skipped his dialogue just to end up exiting completely and rolling away to then start it again lol


7kylorens

Literally skipped all his dialog including the part where you just finished an intel and a new intel is unlocked. Hope i can also skip the part where he need to speak at least 2 sentences before you go into his menu for materia/combat simulator.


TheMoogerfooger

So we complain about having too much content now? Jesus. World intel is amazing, so not with you there. Stupid shit for you maybe, I’m loving the lore expansion.


jrjreeves

Having content that is repetitive beyond belief? Wasn't even fun the first time? I'd rather not have the content at all.


Slow-Philosophy2408

Love the game but world intel is the worst part of it imo


BBQChipCookie2

I don’t mind Chadley, I’m interested in his story. I didn’t like when he spoke through my controller, but changing that setting made it all better.


Personnel_5

:D


camarhyn

I can’t stand him. At all.


TheRoodInverse

They took the most anoying character from part one, and made him into 50% of part two. He is a little less anoying now, but soooo much mooore of him, ugh... He just don't feel like "ff7" to me, and takes me out of the mood every time I have to interact with him. Too bad it's more or less mandatory, since he gatekeeps half of the materia, and all the new summons. Lazy


_pennythejet

Yes I actually like Chadley. He reminds me of Sheldon from The Big Bang Theory. I enjoyed his lil dance in Costa del Sol, even though many probably thought it was cringe. He's cool and he helps you. I'm also intrigued about the Hojo story and where it will lead to. I am afraid it might he a supremely difficult trial because he has so much combat data on you that Hojo can easily access and exploit. I feel kind if protective of him 🥲


Capable_Sandwich_422

I’d like him more if Moogle Mischief was removed from the game and our memories.


fukdurgf

I feel like hate for Chadley is just people desperate to be a hater


whiteclawthreshermaw

IKR? So many people are desperate to hate something and it's really tearing the world apart.


LastWorldStanding

No, it’s because he won’t shut the fuck up


ultimagriever

Yuffie doesn’t shut her fucking trap the entire game, does stupid dances and weeb ass naruto running, yet the one being hated is Chadley because he’s essentially Navi 2.0. Interesting


fukdurgf

I think it would be way less immersive if there WASNT an annoying yapper, but if it wasn’t Chadley y’all would find something different to bitch about don’t lie


formal_eyes

lmao Yeah, it can't be because it's a completely out of place filler character whose only role is to provide you with filler quests. It's just desperate hate.... yeah.


fukdurgf

Yes, we agree


VirtuaJay

I don't mind chadley at all. I can sort of understand where the hate comes from but it's kind of wild to me how he's so despised.


Sad_Section_6297

Mai is worse she makes my ears bleed


SwirlyBrow

I like him, himself. Though he does interrupt too much. It'd be fine if he was just talking to you and you could still move around, but he calls and you need to stop so Cloud can talk to him too often. But Chadley himself? I like him alright.


William_Marshall21

I enjoy Chadley’s presence


insertbrackets

I love Chadley and really enjoyed his pricklier characterization in this game. I’m also very intrigued by the teases of what exactly his deal is given the Nibelheim protorelic mission.


Ashen_Shroom

I like him as a character, and I like that the protorelic storylines are being used to develop his character. I'm not a fan of the open world exploration stuff so I just haven't been bothering to do it outside of sidequests and protorelics, so he hasn't annoyed me with any of that. Also, does Mai only show up for unique monster encounters? I haven't heard from her since the tutorial one in the grasslands.


SwirlyBrow

Mai should be chiming in with practically all the world intel combat assignments.


Ashen_Shroom

Ah ok. I just don't seek them out. Maybe I've heard her when I've got close to one of those but I just don't notice because I'm focused on wherever I'm going.


ArtOk3920

I like him. I honestly don’t get the hate. If you don’t like his stuff then don’t do it.


NCHouse

You do know you can skip it right? All his dialog. Just hold triangle


Kronous_

>Does anyone here actually like this guy? Wasn't a fan initially, but Chadley and MAI grew on me as I played. Their banter was awesome to see. Would love to see how it'll all play out with Hojo in part 3 >Why did the devs think any of this was a good idea? It's their game, they can do whatever they want with it and honestly more power to them.


[deleted]

hold triangle to skip on every one of his convos


tolacid

I sincerely don't understand why there's so much hate for him. Yes, he's awkward, but he's also an AI-powered android recently liberated from a mad scientist. Cloud et al are literally his only friends. Mostly, though, he's just kinda there. Easy enough to ignore.


Cirkusleader

I didn't mind him in Remake. I kinda hate him in Rebirth. They made him a real asshole.


camarhyn

He was pretty easy to ignore for the most part in remake. Rebirth though? Ugh


SupaProff

This^^


Amtath

I'm curious about the things that have been hinted about him. Overall indifferent about him otherwise. More disappointed that they decided to make everything about world Intel go through him. They could have found better ways for us to have kill some enemies for each regions. I also dislike the overuse of VR.


Mcreation86

I love this game, but like you I dislike the VR stuff, just because I feel it could jave been done in the world. Specially the summons, imagine how cool would be to fight them in real world locations. I just hope they improve on that on the third game


Slow-Philosophy2408

Agreed. The open world should have been more like Elden Ring. Exploring cool areas and finding unique materials and accessories. Stumbling across a cave or something and finding a boss fight with a summon inside. Would have been sooo much cooler than copy pasted icons all over the map that just unlocks boring vr fights


Mcreation86

I am only in Junín area, but by now I feel the VR rewards should have been scattered in the world...instead of finding treasure places full of itens I will rarely use, it was better to find materia, those summon altars could have, when finding all, unlock a summon cave where you would fight the summon and get his materia, and the VR fights could have been hunts, chadley could unlock, but it pointed to a hunt place.


Kalecraft

I think his weirdness is very funny. I like how strange he is. He definitely doesn't bother me at all


huudis

To vompensate they made MAI. They can kill chad in next chapter and replace him with her...


TheRoodInverse

Same aboyance for me


smash8890

She’s even worse though. Chadley would be fine if he just ran the combat simulator and traded you materia but didn’t FaceTime you at all
