I hope it's not too descriptive/in-your-face. All of the above mentioned is there within the narrative of the original game, you don't even need to play Crisis Core as all that does is add a layer of emotion with Zack and Cloud's friendship.
Sure, the translation can be tidied up a fair bit, but do leave a sufficient amount to be contemplated and figured out. 'Light bulb' moments make a good story a great story.
I always go on about how I'm not interested in stories being in games. How on earth can I appreciate anything on a Hollywood scale after playing through FFVII? It's basically the Akira of video games (the manga, not the anime).
All of the above story is in the game iirc, but as said- the translation can make it difficult. The most difficult part is probably what the black blobs are speaking "reunion" and why there are so many of them/are under thrall.
I'm tempted to try that new translation, but as someone who has played through FFVII once before (back when it was first released on PC), I should probably wait for the remake - otherwise it might be too soon when that comes.
