That's a shame but i'm hoping the Devil Rides appear somehow, those are just as silly.

Part of Cloud psychosis is having a ripped bod. He's actually got a dad bod and a beer belly.
I think 9 technically reviewed higher but only had 22 reviews so I believe you could say yes to this question. Atleast on metacritic.

Looked good then but looks goofy now!😅

Definitely, and she should only do it if she wants to. But we see transitions like that in the FF series all the time. Maehiro was primarily a writer, Toriyama was primarily a writer I think (could be wrong there), hell, Nomura was a character designer to start and started writing with FFVII.
I'd love to see him directing FF XVII (or, well, XVIII...).
And, as much as I think new blood is sorely needed and as much as I hate a lot of the stuff they come up with, I'd be excited to see what Nomura and Nojima could cook with a brand new FF. No ties to anything, full freedom, fresh world and cast.
I wonder what's next for Nomura after Part 3. Beyond KH and random games he's the producer and/or the character designer of, I mean.
I don't think FFXVI hurt FFXIV as much as many like to think.
Endwalker had a lot being worked on for itself during that time. The graphics update, trusts and dungeon reworks, and the Xbox version, those are all more likely to be the cause in the dip in content than FFXVI was imo.
They can handle another FF alongside FFXIV, especially if they build off of what they already created. Hell, if they are already working on something then Dawntrail's packed content already proves they can pull both off.
We really need a girl directing a Final Fanasy, we've already have a Final Fantasy written by her and turn out to be one of the best Final Fantasy experience ever created so.... yeah.
It's a callback to what he wore in Costa De Sol in the original game. He's the only character that had an alternate sprite (albeit very briefly) in the OG. So everyone else is wearing something newly put together for Rebirth.
Weird since the original was already an openly queer love story
Ohohohohohohoho, thank you. This pleases me.

Have you played Remake?
I always recommend finishing the OG first because the Remake Trilogy is definitely designed to stand alongside it, not replace it. But you can definitely enjoy the Remake games without having played it!
One of the things that really makes me lean toward CBU3 doing XVII is simply the fact that I can't see how they would pass up on having Ishikawa at least write a new mainline FF game after Shadowbringers and Endwalker's stories were so well received.
And with Ishikawa stepping away from active writing and into a more supervisory role on XIV (getting some leadership experience, maybe?), she's almost gotta be cooking up *something*, even if its not FFXVII.

I know we are eating with FF16 and now 7 rebirth but Final Fantasy future is surely in good hands, I am so hyped
Thanks to the team they learned and finally did it. the future looks soo bright for the series now.
Yeah, Jade was over the moon with this as she played - as was I.
I'm not saying it in that way.
It's more of a question, to know if the performance mode was fixed or if the quality mode is perfectly playable.
I have heard it's a hidden boss now, which does fit, they've made a lot of the larger iconic enemies bosses
Seems like a definite improvement on FF7R. I am checking my hype a bit though, seems like every reviewer that gave it an 8-8.5 is echoing my issues with the first game (overly bloated, doesn't respect your time) so I suspect I'll feel similar about this one.
Great first few months of the year for RPG fans with this and Yakuza.

Excellent. Baby steps, but steps nonetheless.
Also love that they retained so many staffers from Remake. That is usually a great sign. So many companies don't realize that retention and long term tech/institutional knowledge lets you work with less stress and accomplish so much more.
Are you me? Literally just got to gold saucer last night on my first playthrough!
I think we'll get a better full picture if we finish the original first. (Though I have considered picking up that ever crisis game too...)

See's Tifa's bikini, never leaving Costa Del Sol, unable to finish the game. ;)
Damnn 93 hell yes, seems like 90+ is locked in even if it drifts down a bit. SE really cooked with this one!
Really stark universal acclaim compared to the lukewarm attitude many had in the demo and review predictions thread.
I always had faith!

If you mean Square Enix titles, then yup. It's one of the very few to reach 90+, the 90+ ones are (initial releases, not including rerelease ++ editions):
- Final Fantasy XII - 92
- Final Fantasy XIV Endwalker - 92
- Final Fantasy XIV Shadowbringer - 90
- Final Fantasy VII Rebirth - 93
Big scores! Reading through some reviews it sounds like it still has similar strengths and weaknesses as Remake, but the highs are even better, so if you're down with Remakes vibes you'll be very happy with this.
Interesting some of reviews saying it's almost too faithful to the original at times, while going really out there at the end as expected.
