i did thats how i saw this
hopefully its just a joke image then, its not showing any description to me
I guess it depends on what the audience wants out of a game called Final Fantasy VII Remake. I can't think of too many high profile releases that sold itself as one thing that ended up controversial, and then kept on selling well despite that controversy, but then it's a question as to whether the people who played Remake view those changes as negatives, or if they're only negatives in a story that's a remake of Final Fantasy VII. The closest I can really draw my mind to at the moment is Raiden in MGS2, except the next game put Snake back in the main character slot and then included a character who was a big joke at Raiden's expense. Though I'm sure more informed people than me can chime in on that.
Anyway that mod that redoes the chibi models is aces. That's kinda what I always wanted "FFVII With More Graphics" to look like, though it's hard not to concede that the chibi models were a concession due to technology even back then.

Oh my god they even removed the stupid screws from Cloud's shoulderpad.
I need a gaming PC. Maybe next gen I'll free myself from consoles.
I get that and Im with you but I still wanna see key locations in full remade glory. If SE starts heavily picking and choosing I will start to questening if they simply cut stuff because it was too much work and they will not able to hide behind story reasons alone.
Yeah even though I ultimately like Remake, I think calling it "Remake" was real stupid and basically cashing in on over a decade of what basically amounted to memes.
I have to imagine the next game will scrap the Remake part entirely... Hopefully.
Could just be that Fort Condor is a legend or myth, which the board game is a based on but it turns out it's real when you actually find the place.
I mean, yeah, I think it's surface level that the game was gonna be sold as The Thing You Already Wanted, what with all the puddle deep meta commentary.
Remember when people thought red xiii wasn't gonna be in the game?
Please make the minigame into a Tactics-style thing
Floch, my boy, is that you?
But what about seeing Cid drink it in stunning 4K quality in - wait for it - Midgar?
The point of the remake for me is to have fun beating people up as Cloud and co. in a sweet combat system with modern visuals in the FF7 world. To other people it might be the music, or the character interactions, or something else entirely. I'm a super FF7 og stan and I'm good with whatever they wanna do. I don't care how many parts it takes or if they remove Fort Condor lol. I just want a fun game within the 7 universe. If they wanna add Deepground and Weiss and all that go ahead. Just make sure those parts are fun to experience.
I dunno if I've seen people saying it's NECESSARY to remove Fort Condor, I see a lot of people who are indifferent to it and making assumptions based off this cute detail we got. Fort Condor was never this pillar of worldbuilding for me. It was just a thing. I'd want it in the Remake just to see it recreated but I'm not too upset if they cut it out. It's not Cosmo Canyon or Gold Saucer or anything like that for me.
No reason it can't be a strategy mini-game you can actually play. Like the darts or whack a box thing.
The kid will give you Phoenix Materia for beating him. :P
Best part of the place was the music (which I can't WAIT for a 7R version of)

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

That's funny, my only reaction to this potential was that I hope we still get a Remake style remix of the original track. Those trumpets are too good to be left out!
It's going to be a mini game most likely. Why bring up the kids love for a board game if it isnt?
I think this would prompt a more interesting and meaty discussion if we were talking about the removal of optional content that was actually good. As it is now it's a matter of how to change content in-game that no one will miss, but maybe if you're splitting your remake of your most beloved game into three full price releases you kind of have an obligation to fit it in somwhere.
Like if we get to FFVIIR Part 2 Final Mix Director's Cut and the Golden Saucer is just a linear ass setpiece you'd probably get more of a back and forth.
The snowboarding minigame is next on the chopping block.

The Remake is what the creators want to do, and they were involved in the original. So... whatever lol
I don't think any of this implies Fort Condor being cut. Probably just a way to introduce a new mini-game in this part of the game.
Yeah so was that short story where Tidus kicks a bomb because he thinks it's a blitzball and dies.
Knights of the Round is now pre-order DLC.
But the Tifa/Cloud scene before the final Northern Crater level is 500% more explicit now
You can tell that Nojima didn't give a fuck lol this is different.
I can see them turning it into a mini-game that is actually played by the characters, seems like a smart way to deal with it, doesn't bother me at all if the "real" Fort is cut.

Kinda my thoughts as well. Like, they fucking nailed Hell House and Honeybee Inn! Wall Market in general, really. In any case it'll be very fun to revisit this thread if Fort Condor - as it is in the original, both the mini-game and, as an extension, the location - gets altered and this board game is it's replacement in terms of gameplay.
Who was the guy who decided Avalanche didn't actually blow up the reactor in Remake
That guy's a tool
I'd be fine with it being cut, but I don't necessarily think this is indicative of anything just yet.
For all we know there's a scene where the kid literally says he wants to "the REAL Fort Condor". Not gonna take the bait on this.
Jessie died thinking she was responsible for a bunch of deaths. I don't see what the problem is.
Generally speaking, the consequences and ramifications of sympathetic characters doing morally questionable things relies on them being the ones who actually commit them.
The morality of the heroes' actions was up to discussion, now it's not.
I know your avi is Caim but I'm glad that in Remake I don't have to play as murderers of innocent people
Fort Condor was always a pretty bad part of the original game. It was mostly a bad mini-game. If they distilled that down to some goofy nod to the original in the form of a boardgame you can play (Or not play), I think that's a good choice.
