Time to start my petition to remove Cloud from the remake.

re: OST samples

Really like the standard battle theme, I think it translated beautifully, but the boss theme lost its prog-rock vibe and it just isn't the same

Hoping for a classic OST option 🤷‍♂️
I'm with you on that one. The remake version of Still more fighting is not to me liking. Hope there's another version. It's not bad by any means, I can get used to it, but I can't deny I was disappointed by it.

Yeah exactly or like in Ni No Kuni 2. It's a diorama style open world. With the art style they have for the remake I think it would look pretty dope and would be way more engaging than a FFXV open world.

In a car driving 60mph without stopping it would take almost an hour to get to Kalm. Hour long car rides are not engaging and if you make them engaging it's now much longer to get to Kalm and at that pace this series will be in 10 parts. And yes there are tools to "quickly" make world geometry.

It seems like the only way you could sensibly keep that sense of scale/world size is to replace the driving journey with a 3-5 minute cutscene and have fast travel between Midgar and Calm instantly unlocked after watching the cutscene.

as a user said the awesome thing of ff7 its the mix of genres, costa del sol is bossa nova, if they change that for an orchestra could sound awesome but would break the style of it. its the same thing of still more fighting its not rock anymore.

Do you guys think Square could implement team attacks like in Chrono Trigger? Maybe with the requirement of spending all atb bars with the involved characters. I think it would be a great addition.

Not sure about the team attacks, but Nomura has been wanted to put team combos since the Versus days (where you switch characters to do combo attacks) so I could see it happening for the remake.

Max's breakdown actually talks about this a little, when he noticed things hinting at this in his playthrough of the demo. He even asked directly, and was told it couldn't be talked about right now.

What he noticed was that attacks directly following up on one another from separate characters seemed to do increased stagger and damage.

It would be cool to have specific combo routes like Xenoblade 2..

That's Visual Work's CG render. Maybe you are remembering ingame look? (which I don't think is bad either)

Cloud's a hottie he always look good.

Seriously though I used to think Cloud's model in AC looked amazing, and it's funny that ~15 years later it's been way surpassed.

.....of course not moping around helps with that too.

Cait Sith could just not be in the remakes at all and no one would give a shit. The whole sacrifice slow motion shit is the most forced shit ever. I couldn't believe what the hell was happening on the screen. And then dude really came back like people missed him. Man, no one even liked you in the first place.
You'll be ashamed of your words and deeds when they lean hard into the mecha aspect and give revised Cait Sith missile launchers and lasers.

Like I said a week ago, I honestly think they could remove the moogle part of cait sith and the cat just rides on top of red 13. Give him some spells he can do off of red 13.

That way you can still keep Reeve part of the story, but you don't have this stupid ass crappy moogle thing in your game that no one gives a shit about and will look stupid in your remake.

Introduce the moogle, but then reeve drops it because its dumb.

I legit forget sometimes that Cait Sith even exists.

Leave Cait Sith alone, he deserves to be in it as a full character.
I'm sure it will be glorious.

Just saw Vincent ask Cloud "What are you doing?" during his freak out at the Temple of the Ancients mural. Vincent's reactions when he's in your party make the game an 11/10

Hmmm, you know, Noctis' face in the render looks a lot like the faces in the Dead or Alive series. But the game model looks more like Square's style.
It's probably just the style. Visual Works also put together NT's CGI intro. He does look more similar between the two than the other characters though.

Edit: Tidus definitely looks better in the render than in-game whoa

I like imagining Cloud, after VII, saying "yes, I want to have edgy wolves everywhere, I'm into that now, ok".

Seto and Gi cave story line are dumb. Literally who are the Gi. Literally why did no one just tell him about his father. Literally why is his grandfather not also a dog thing.

Bugenhagen is cool but redward 13 is shrug emoji.

What's worse, Cait Sith being controlled remotely by someone in Shinra's headquarters or Nanaki calling Bugenhagen his grandfather as a way to honor him?
