Knowing modern SE this will be revealed story wise as secret VR project that Zack is going through nonstop to retool him as ultimate loyal soldier after SHINRA retrives his body and Cloud has to face him later as a boss.

You could do something really cool with a Final Fantasy battle royale if you used classic FF jobs and aesthetics.

Or you could do this.

This is probably one of the most baffling directions i could ever imagine SE to take the FF7 franchise.

What the fuck? I never thought I'd see the day ffvii became a shooter. I don't remember if you aim down sights in derge.... that was very cringe to watch

Anyone remember how forcefully they tried to make a gigantic franchise out of XV with mobile, movies, series and mini games?

It's VII's time now, lol.
We already had this exact same scenario over 15 years ago.
Movie, mobile, spin offs
So it's VII's second time now...

This happened with FF7 before, it's just a repeat of the Compilation. They milked FF7 to death back then, and they'll do it again now.

Square is repeating all their awful mistakes of the early 2000's all over again.

Time is a circle.

I see some reactions acting as if this was the only think SE announced today which would suck ass. They knew this and sandwiched it between two pieces of greatness. I see right through you SE

Hahaha, what is this? It looks so amateur, that it will be a big success if it's fun enough for multiple replays after the novelty wears off.

Well that's that
They did it
They won

If I'm Bob Gamer, why the heck would I choose to try PUBG over a battle royale based on one of the most successful IPs in the entire gaming industry. All this dev team has to achieve is get to a place where when people are comparing FF to any other battle royale they say "hey these are both pretty solid battle royale games but in this one you can use a buster sword and do cool buster sword things". I'm genuinely struggling to imagine a more straightforward no brainer choice for myself as a gamer without delving into the realm of just making something completely crazy and unrealistic up

Thats before we even start talking about if the game is good or not

Im not even vaguely a battle royale fan, I jumped once in Fortnite, I hated it, deleted it, and have not looked back but that brief FF footage already has me like "oh maybe I should try that". Same for most of my other friends. It really feels like they may have just made an entire audience of people who actively don't care about battle royales start paying attention all of a sudden + I'm sure they're gonna make it a pretty attractive offering for veterans


No hate on other battle royales out there ofc outside them just not being my thing. I'm actually super impressed with PUBG in particular for how well they've grown such a huge community and supported their esports scene but come on this is Final Fantasy

Midgar, With Love
I happily own an iPhone 6. Mobile gaming doesn't hook me at all. But at least in the case of Ever Crisis, I'd check it out if that changed. This, uh...

This is certainly a thing!

Nothing says artistic integrity like blindly following market trends.

Of course, any semblance of artistic integrity got thrown out the window with the first compillation milking contest.

Mobile graphics have really progressed quite a bit.

But still not interest in a mobile battle royal game. Touch screen controls for games like that hurt my hands. Hopefully it has controller support.
I tried COD on mobile with an Xbox pad and was was getting10:1 k/d without even trying lol. It was like shooting down targets on an in game gun range.

No idea how they allow it.

Controller players play against controller players. If you were getting such K/D ratio, then you were playing against bots. Also, despite what people may think, experienced touch players can give a hell of fight(and even consistently win) against controller players. CODM Pro Players are using 4,5, even 6 fingers at the same time to control their actions.

Looks fun enough. I'll play it, though probably won't stick to it for long unless it has controller support.

When news came out about these trademark names I would never have guessed we were getting an FF7 Battle Royal. Like...what? It looks like something I'll try but just...what?
