Are they really going to pull this off? It looks perfect. Voice acting is a tad goofy but I don't even care.

The VA / translations still seems really poor, but it was somehow nostalgic for me.

Excited, but kind of on the fence whether to buy on launch day, or wait later and see if there will be PS5 improvements / a PS5 version.

Looks really really great.
The gym!!! :D

I dont know... if PS5 wont be so far and it will be available for it, I will probably wait for that version...
It'll be like the One X Enhanced games, download a patch and it'll look better, as PS5 will be backwards compatible with PS4. I'm expecting majority of games next year to be that way honestly.

It is hilarious to think that the characters in their Don Corneo outfits is going to be one of the things drip fed over the course of the next few trailers.

Aeris won this round, but just you wait....

How the actual fuck did they nail Don Corneo so well

Man, when this was first announced, I was a bit apprehensive, but everything they've shown thus far shows that Square actually gets it

Looks absolutely incredible.

So glad I waited for this remake to play FFVII. From everything I've seen this has the potential to be one of my top 5 games of all time.

Christ I'm trying to keep my hype in check because I have been burned by Squenix before (I''m one of those who just couldn't stand XV), but this looks better and better every time they show it off.

I think the voice acting is fine, it just always sounds weird when it's all spliced up like this.

Anyway a few things I noticed:

  • I'm pretty sure President Shinra didn't try to suggest Avalanche was working with Wutai, so that suggests the Wutai war is still on-going or perhaps tensions are flared?
  • Tifa being in the gym and assuring Cloud with Aerith suggests you'll free her before Don Corneo, which is a bit odd
  • Maybe we'll play as Aerith as she escorts Marlene to her mother's house, and then Tseng shows up? Would be awesome if she got a solo boss fight.
  • Actual SOLDIER members showing up is great, though it'll be curious how they explain Cloud not being the big shot he says he is.
  • No Quinton Flynn for Reno is a bit sad
In the compilation it shows some wutai groups exists in the shadows after the war ended.

Something i just realized is that the scene with Aerith in that dress with Cloud and the fireworks going off ; didnt that happen in the Golden Saucer? Which means the game will at least continue on past Midgard? Or am i misremembering the story?

Yeah I am pretty sure that is the date night thing from Golden Saucer, the only other thing I can think of is it's at Wall Market when she gets dressed to go into Don's mansion and they just have fireworks going off in the background.

Edit: Watching it again it's definitely Don's mansion as you can see the door behind Cloud.

I dunno, but when I saw him I felt a pang of abject terror that instantly transported me back to the time I played Crisis Core.

Please SE, no new major characters. They're going to be fucking awful, I just know it.
My guess is he's just a new boss with a bit of backstory that's meant to relate a bit to Zack and Cloud. I doubt he'll be major or take up a ton of screentime.

The soundtrack...the way they used the instruments sounded very FF12 near the beginning of the trailer...maybe the use of trumpets? dunno.

This is not what people look like :P

This is going to keep being a thing, huh? People pausing trailers to get a deep analysis on the tiddy.

Honestly, I think this might be a case of unfinished/lower quality models. Meaning, because her chest has no actual physics to it, you may get the occasional shot where they look like they're defying gravity. You see this a lot in other games, a good example being Vanille in FFXIII.

The majority of shots shown have more than proven they're being careful with the proportions here. As much as 4chan wants to believe she's smuggling massive balloons underneath the sports bra, it's clear at this point Square wants to focus on the character's best traits....such as being fit.

That said, they are obviously saving the shot of her in a dress for a later trailer. Ditto the other one.

It's Wall Market/Don Corneo's mansion, I assume.

I dont recall there being Fireworks in that part of the game, but who knows what they are going to do with the remake.

It would be a huge surprise if from all the info and trailers we have seen, they keep suggesting that its based strictly in Midgard, but on release goes way past that. Im hoping they are holding that info close to their chest and will surprise us all.

Im surprised the Turks are almost direct copies of the Advent Children designs despite everyone else changing, interesting choice.

One thing I really am dying to know is whether the English subtitles are only for the English version (dub), or whether it follows the seemingly more elaborate Japanese dialogue when you choose Japanese audio. I really want to play the Japanese version, but it would suck super hard if it still had the same dialogue as the English one.



If anyone proficient in Japanese has a chance to try both, please be a hero and check and also maybe ask Square-Enix to support both!
