With copies now out in the wild I guess I'll be keeping away from any other FFVII related stuff until launch.

At least this thread is safe.

I assume they'd want to release a patch on April 10th?

Just seems like a normal thing to do these days lol

Next week we should have another BTS video (I assume there's at least another episode since they didn't specify in the last one iirc), with the week after that being the reviews one (maybe a short-ish release trailer? I'm good though).

I wonder when the embargo will end; they have looked really confident in their showing of the game, so I wouldn't be surprised if it's a relatively early one, although I'm not counting on it.

Seems like RE3's embargo lift on 30th, Monday where the game releases on Friday. I sort of expect similar timeframe for FF7R so around April 6th I guess? KH3 had similar sort of embargo date.

I got the email Thursday but it didn't have tracking information. They say its on the way but it hasn't actually shipped until you get the tracking number.

Nope, doesn't apply to everyone/everywhere as it seems. I never got a tracking number from SQE in the past years. The package simply arrived 4 – 5 days after the Email. (I am from Germany)

My email also came in btw.

isn't this a bit too early? I mean even if it takes a whole week to deliver to you, you'll still have it 1 week before release

Hmm you are right. It does have a tracking number, but the information is still on "Label Created". Still, it usually doesn't take much time between the label being created and the actual shipment.

Saw on Reddit, the back cover confirms 100GB minimum HD space.

And on that note, once the other parts of this game are out... RIP in peace PS5 825GB SSD.

Mine says in preparation. I will be checking all week.

Are you guys located in Europe mostly or are there any US updates? I didn't realize I missed the launch day delivery with the March 20th cut off but I'm crossing my fingers it hopefully works out. lol

That said my account says that Shipments are "Initiated" and the email link also says that the shipments are being "Prepared", so far so good then.

...then again the Play Arts Kai for Judge Gabranth i ordered and received a year or so ago is still listed as being delivery in progress so who knows. lol

I pre-ordered digitally so should have no issues with playing on launch day. Hopefully everyone who ordered a physical copy will get there's too without delay.

I'm still pretty bummed that they haven't announced a strategy guide. 😢

Square must regret so badly not releasing this game on March 10th. I feel bad for the team, hopefully the sales impact won't be too hard.

I really hope we can freely ride the motorcycle or train around the city sectors. At least let me be on top of an automated train and let me turn the camera and appreciate the city. and be able to jump off at every station or select spots.

My hype is reaching fever pitch. I've been rewatching trailers a lot and listening to the vinyl rip on youtube while I am doing work on my computer.

Might ditch my Amazon pre-order because they won't let me change it to day 1 shipping. I will cancel it and just buy digital. I'll have to pay $40 bucks more because I don't get the E3 discount, but fuck it, it's FFVII/RE.

Kind of a silly question, but I've never done a digital pre-order before: If I pre-order after the preload goes live, can I start the preload right away?

Anybody know when the preload is going up? I take it the week of the 10th, but this is a beefy game, so I hope they'd do it sooner...
