And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
"toned down"? What?

Not with the presentation of the remake if it goes in a different direction.
Unless of course some nice fans mod the PC version to work like that, in which case I'd be more willing to compromise.
He was the battle director for 7 and 8.
May not count, but there's also that one part of Kingdom Hearts Coded that's turn-based.
But it wasnt...
FF VII could perfectly had another battle system, that meanwhile if was fun and had summoms, nobody would have complained about it not being how it is.
So, no. Battle defined nothing. Just a part of the package that was good, but no one says it couldnt be better.
I'm referring to Crisis Core's ending. It was overdramatic. Didn't care for the "living legacy" stuff.
But now that I think about it, they'd probably just show that in fragmented memories anyway.
Man the next few years will be great...just wait and see what sqenix can come up with before demanding this and that and being afraid of such and such.
Ultimately the company had a vision for the remake, otherwise they wouldn't have started the project.
All these years people were begging for a remake now it's "if they do this ill boycott", and "oh boy they better not touch this aspect..."
Like jeesh...

I found nothing on VII, but on VIII he was the battle visual director, not battle director (if you want to count that as more than character design, then I guess there will be one game on that list).

Just had a look at the "new" (edited) OP. Really awesome, hope it makes it into thread #2 next week.

For me Advent Children was unnecessary to begin with as I like to think that

No it wasn't the exact same system. It brought about the limit break system and the materia system eliminated specific characters having specific roles during combat. It also brought about the ridiculous summons that were minutes long but looked insane.
And sorry you don't understand JRPGs at all if you say the battle system isn't important. It is one of the pillars of the entire game. Plenty of JRPGs have been killed by horrible battle systems. I mean you spend 90% of your time within that system, so if it isn't good it really makes it tough to finish. The story then has to be REALLY good

That's why I said, different sub-systems, thus making it quite different at the end of day. The core battle system is actually very, very similar however. Doesn't necessarily mean it's a bad thing, don't get me wrong.
The materia system has to stay, it's impossible to get rid of it without butchering the whole basis of the game. The materia system needs fixing so that it's not broken to fuck with overpowered dumbshit and the million glitches in the game need removing, W-Item especially.
I am not sure why people want an ARPG. We just got 3 in a row with FFXIII, XIII-2 and Lightning returns all action based and the enemies in the game would need adjusting if it were to be an ARPG. Nomura's comments concern me slightly because characters line up in FFXHD and they don't look silly in that game so why would it be silly in FFVII?
I don't mind either way. I'm concerned about other things. The original FFVII was ridiculously easy because of the bullshit that can be done with the materia and I hope above all else that crap gets fixed. Also fix the KOTR summon, NO WAY should we be able to obtain that summon as soon as we can with the power it as to 1 shot anything in the game outside of Emerald, Ruby and Sephiroth and it can be spammed to beat those 3 as well, as well as the battle arena.

Think they'll bring it to PC like XIII?
^ FF7 was on PC and PS1 back 20 years ago, it'll be the same here eventually.
After everything is said and done, the only thing i really want Nomura and whomever is apart of this project to do is to follow what they want to make for this version of FF7.
Don't worry about external forces or 'living up to fan interpretation', it'll just end up with people unhappy anyway, that's inevitable. Just stay the course and do what you imagined for a FF7 remake.
Whatever comes out is what we get.

Hojo.
I actually liked how the original never made it clear if Sephiroth or Jenova was the mastermind. I kind of hope the remake keeps that.
it was completely different in the original compare to crisis core and it was better in the original.

Definitely not Jenova. It's been dead for centuries. Sephiroth is in full control of Jenova's cells.
So either Sephiroth or Hojo.
All I want from the battle system is to be given control of the entire party.
I don't mind if there's A.I. involved as long as I'm allowed to switch between party members whenever I want.
While FF XV's approach is interesting, FF VII gave me control over an entire party, each of them have their own limit breaks, and the remake needs to allow me to kick ass with any of those characters.
Whatever they do, turn based or action oriented, that is all I demand them to do.
As for the rest, Nomura stated that they want to make the game better than the original. So I'm confident the core of the experience from the original will be present.

Same here. I know it's a remake but if you want a unique final product you need to follow the division of the developers, not the expectations of the fans. It might end up worse but that's really not the end of the world. Just try to make the project interesting.

This.
Sure, you fight Jenova a few times but the one in control of the whole thing via the lifestream etc was Sephiroth.
I see Hojo as Big Bad No 2 because he was trying to help his son and was bat shit crazy and even though you fight Jenova she, or it, was probably never in full control of what was going on and as a cosmic virus she had pretty much died when the Cetra imprisoned her.

where's Yuffie :3
One of Jenova's abilities was mind control, if I remember correctly.

the heck?
This was such a goofy moment.this guy?
he seems pretty chill.
This game is so unpredictable tonally and easily the most complex FF in this regard.
Hope they can recapture that weirdness once again even through brand new scenes!
Obvious bait post is obvious
A good amount of enemies will certainly disappear they simply cant make ~ 100 different enemie models like in the past i would be to expensive i think.
I just hope they keep some weird ones
and to change form

Isn't that how you "saw" Sephiroth on the boat etc?
I wasnt sure about the weird ones then and even less so today lol :
they simple have to include the house enemie in the slums it was soo weird^^ and the slot machine enemie and all the crazy/horro type ones from the shinra mansion
Damn i think i start FF7 again today

QTE? Seriously?
The only thing I worry is square won't be able to re create the atmosphere of using pre rendered backgrounds into a full on 3d world.

As you posted in the other thread, the one guy in the Shinra Mansion that swings on a giant blade is my favorite. Some of his animations are hilariously overdramatic.

I just started Disc 2 before calling it quits for the night. An immaculately paced game that still holds my rapt attention on what has to be my 6th or 7th playthrough (lost count). It's been 6 years since I've played it last.
This guy are sick.

Relax you guys. That was obviously a joke. If lots of QTE doesn't already give it away, FFXV doesn't even have random encounters.
Yeah pretty funny enemie especially if you manage to drop his ass down and stop missing your attacks, how it tries to get back up awww ^^
The last two times i played was with the tifa bootleg mod but this time i go "classic"
