Oh good, I'm getting the whole story then? I get to meet JENOVA, suffer the devastating loss of Aerith, learn about Zack and his connection to Cloud, and stop Meteor from destroying Gaia?
Not having the whole FF7 story doesn't mean it's not a complete game. Idk who came up with that but that's bad logic lmao.
Yup, if they manage to not cut anything (and in addition they've already confirmed they're fleshing things out further) then this is going to be amazing to experience as a fans of the game. The footage last night both battle and story was like what a lot of fans have dreamed about.
This right here. I'm all-in.
It's not even a complete game... you don't even get the majority of your team until after you leave Midgar. Literally more than half the playable cast!
So break this down for me.
Nah, I disagree with that but regardless of that opinion there's a lot they can put in related to forming Avalanche, Cloud and Tifa's relationship (same with Aeris), we can see the rest of the sectors in full (like they stated in one of the interviews back in 2016), there's a lot they can do here given the space. Yeah things happen after they leave Midgar but there's enough room and space for us to fill in especially given what it is.
the pillar explosion was impactful, but i understand kitase and nomura why they want to expand midgar, its really the most interesting place and with most potential. Midgar is what makes final fantasy vii fits the cyberpunk genre, its where most of political aspects of the game are worked, its where you have the second biggest enemy of the party and the one with the biggest influence in the world and story, everything is directed linked to shinra, soldier, turks, sephiroth, avalanche, cosmo canyon, and all the party members etc. Midgar is basically the world capital its a very interesting place.
You do know development was scrapped and restarted in 2017 right? And with gameplay and assets in place already, it'll be half that time at the longest. What a silly post.
Can I play as Cid, Vincent, Yuffie, Cait Sith, can I fuck around in the Golden Saucer, can I roam the world, can I breed chocobos, can I even know the actual fucking goal of this story through only Midgar?
DQ games had pretty good graphics before VII. VII was an exception. And FF wasn't a graphic whore game until VII.
And yes, people would have been fine. Look at the reception for FFVIII Remaster. Not a remake, but still a positive reception, and it'll sell well. Won't sell 10 million but there's no guarantee FFVII remake will either.
Are you telling me that if FFVIIR looked like this:
Fully voice acted. No random encounters.
People wouldn't have been satisfied and hyped? I think they would have.
A lot of people say that FFVII is a popular property. If so, it would sell well no matter what. If that's the case, why the need for the pagaentry? Why the need for the excess?
A good metric is slash it by half for each sequel part as your lower bound.
I think everyone needs to adjust how they view this game now. It's an on-going sub-series until they release the last installment. FFXIV is also an on-going game currently, and XV has already been released during its lifetime. VIIR is now in similar territory.
