Final Fantasy 7 Remake Concept Art
- Thread starter TheGreatDirector
- Start date
Let's see what they next showcase since everything Cyberconnect did has been essentially scrapped so nothing we saw at PSX 2015 matters anymore. Hasimoto confirmed it'll be at E3 this year so we'll find out soon enough.
Obviously this won't be the case but imagine if, as a way to try and evoke the prerendered backgrounds of the original, the game was played with a fixed camera angle and areas actually looked like this?
That's what I'm trying to say, yeah. That's why it reminds me of FFXIII because that's how it was designed with modern tech.
Yyyeah I don't think they scrapped everything. Or at least I'm desperately hoping so. They never said that anyway. And nah, it was never confirmed it would be at E3.
Yas!
Hope they add the option to keep [strike]cesnnei[/strike]Jessie alive
Pretty sure they did because they already stated everything regarding C22.
Hashimoto said it in this interview

I think it's obvious he's the producer and brand manager of FF and KH. He also stated 2018 will be a big year for FF with major titles coming and also mentions looking forward to E3 2018 in regards to KH.
KH3 wil probably get its own event like FFXV. But it'll definitely be at E3 since it supposedly coming out this year. FFVII:R will sneak in too because those comments only makes sense for that reason.
what made FFVII so special to me was its humor.
I really hope that aspect remains in good care...

Mmh well I'm having a hard time imagining that everything was discarded. All they said was that the development was shifted internally for quality control reasons. So maybe the direction of certain cutscenes or combat elements were scrapped only? But then could they have kept the models and assets etc to rework them.
One thing's for sure though, if we do see something at E3 then they definitely didn't throw away everything.
I know what Hashimoto said but I'd rather not get my hopes up with this troll ^^
I don't think the concept art looks like, or resembles, FFXIII in any way. It just looks like Final Fantasy VII *shrugs*
Also, playing devils advocate since I want VIIR to be at E3, he does just talk about FF in general. There's a good chance he isn't even talking of VIIR =(
Stated everything regarding CC2... what? Was thrown in the trash and deleted? I don't think it was explicitly stated, or even implied, that they were starting over again. Wouldn't they have taken what CC2 made and brought it into their internal studio so they can improve the quality to Nomura's liking rather than throwing it all away and starting again?

It hasn't even been 3 years since it was announced and SQEX is actively developing FFVII Remake and it's their next big FF. It's nothing like FFVsXIII.
Fragmentary Passage was released early last year, which is basically a demo of KHIII. That's about 1,5 years before release. If they really wanted to, I'm sure they could release some 30 minute demo from the beginning of FFVIIR with DQXI. It might still be rough around the edges and with some locked gameplay systems, but they've shown gameplay shots from the first bombing mission.
I very much doubt anything was scrapped. Maybe they will make some big changes to the gameplay if they feel CC2 wasn't quite getting it right but it's ludicrous to think they'd throw away all the assets that CC2 managed to develop. They might touch them up but there's no reason to believe they'd start from scratch. All the stuff in the trailers so far look great.

Also didn't I read somewhere on GAF that SE recruited people from CC2 left and right around the time the company was ditched (insult to injury, lol). If true it would explain a lot, especially the statement CC2 made yesterday regarding their intention to mass recruit for future projects.
Yep
aw man
i know it was probably to do with hardware limitation but I liked that there were two different looking styles
This game won't have separate battle screens so there's no reason to have two different styles. It wasn't REALLY even necessary on PS1 as the latter FF entries prove.
Shit, isn't this is the tunnel connecting the different sectors together? The one with the house monsters.
Oh, nice :DYes It is. Same hand
a very short Gameplaysection would be enough - just the name of FF7 will be significant enough to garner more interest
Hell, even the logo would be enough. They revealed the remake without ever having to spell out the name Final Fantasy 7, and the world went nuts.
Where was it said that they scrapped everything Cyberconnect did? I mean I know they talked about wanting to have a higher level of quality but that doesn't necessarily mean stuff was scrapped.
Also really wish there were HQ scans of this art, ugh. Need me some new backgrounds for my laptop.
You think the darkness of the shot might be hiding Cloud's hair? It could be, but then again his blonde hair would really stand out if it was him, like here
Would be interesting if it is Zack though, because it would almost confirm Midgar flashbacks or even possibly some sections from Crisis Core.
So there was the fan event today with Kitase and Hamaguchi. Nomura was surprise guest apparently.
Showed 4 screenshots of Avalanche members and Cloud.
Everything from the previous trailer was done again, characters look different now from the trailer we saw.
Cloud looks right for his age. Apparently he looks closest to his original look?
development advancing well
Oh yeah these screenshots won't be shown to public of course.

Yeah that doesn't sound too good
Edit: But at least it's not everything got scrapped, after CC2's firing
I think everything here means the character model and the visuals, not the entire game.
Nice to hear that they've worked on the characters and whatnot. Hope it's in a good enough place for an E3 trailer.
Hoping for more details on this. Media outlets were present after all.
I doubt we will get anything more significant tbh. Unless they do a separate interview with Nomura and Kitase...
The fact that they made the images behind the scene seems to suggest they want to keep it as low as possible until re-reveal.
That's what's keeping me a bit hopeful:
The summary me and Maku's tweet put out is summary of what they talked about in that talk show. Nothing more is there in terms of talk show itself. Interviews are possible of course. But I wonder if they did any..
Ah... well they probably won't. We're just a few days away from a big KH3 event. They're not gonna do anything to overshadow it.
Where are these people that were telling me Nomura wouldn't trash CC2's work.
It only said stuff from the trailer got redone, not who did it or at what point things were redone. Character models get revised during development all the time. Not surprising stuff from a 2015 trailer a ~year into development isn't what they look like in the end product.
This I'd like more detail on, I remember hearing something along the lines of Square not how CC2 was handling the project?
Oh man, can't wait for that off-screen, extended trailer of FF7R that was shown at some obscure event :p
I'm just telling myself that after KH3 it should get better.
i forgot cloud has 21
lets see some cloud designs
its comparison time!
Crisis core at the start of FF7
Advent Children 2 years older only
FF7 ps3 tech demo
and then old design of ff7 remake
yeah in the remake "this guy are sick" more than in advent of children where he's really sick. The format of the face looks weird too
