Going through the sewers system was interesting. I went ahead and checked the differences between this and the original and i found out they greatly expanded this section. The whole thing was a bit tedious with the gate system, but it wasn't too bad.
There's a cutscene where the bridge crumbles and cloud nearly falls in the sewage water. Aerith and Tifa were acting like he'd die, makes me wonder just how toxic that stuff is? I assumed it would just be extremely gross, but nothing a heavy duty shower won't clean off. Maybe it's really toxic though.
