Final Fantasy VII Remake is a multi-part series
- Thread starter PhillipCostigan
- Start date
Sounds like when you have all parts, then you'll have the whole package.
I'm fine with that.
Third disc better be 10$

Yup. It's fake. Neither the one on Playstation's youtube nor S-E's have that. Plus the font is like basic text lol.
Man....seeing you pissed off is a bad sign lol.

yeah for sure, there is some huge downside, too. i'm not sure if it's worth it.
I think I'm OK with it and there could be some great advantages, but certainly it sucks to wait, too.
I think it depends a lot on how they handle the end... if they do this then they really really need the overworld accessible at the end of each chapter with as much or even more free roam content to pursue. If we just end on the Midgar highway and next entry just instantly starts at Kalm with a new save file, then that sucks... huge. If ends outside of Kalm and there's new free roam content in the overworld (there's a lot of things they could use from the side-FF7 games/stories) then maybe it's OK.

The fact that you think this is true is embarrassing.
Some of us would rather use our heads and think about what this could mean and trying to see the positives rather than flip a shit over a vague quote.

So Final Fantasy 7 is now a service? Makes no sense
Trying my best.
$60 a pop
Pre-Order Bonuses
Microtransactions
DLC add-ons
Then a Complete Edition in 2027 for the 30th Anniversary on Next Next Gen.
I'm only half kidding by predicting this.

They haven't announced prices, time between each episode release nor have they showed how long each one will be. Yet its unbelievable that people have doubts? Sounds more like you're just blindly believing the game will be good and a fair price.

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?
Speculating, of course but the entirety of Don Corneo will probably be skipped since the 'next episode' will probably land you right outside the Shinra HQ.
As long as this is true, I can accept it.

Yes, the worst case scenario you've dreamed up does in fact sound terrible. Doesn't mean it'll in any way resemble reality.

They have to confirm it for PC first.

$80 at launch with only Part 1 on disc, ala Minecraft.
"some huge downsides" "some great advantages" LMAO
Lord Nomura does it again.

No. That's how episodic (multi-part) games generally play out

It feels as though SE/Sony has a Definitive released date for the game thats forcing this decision.
I have a feeling if thats the case, there won't be an overworld, the battles would be scripted, and the game might launch buggy.
I would've happily waited for a Full one-disc remake, but this game isn't for me. I loved the gameplay of the first, I would've giving this new one a chance.
However this...yeah this remake is not for me.
You might think its a overreaction, but its more of a realization that I'm find with the original and that I just wanted a better looking Remake.
Still if the music is good, I'll buy the soundtrack.

THANK you. You guys need to realize that this move means the world will be more realized like this, more detailed and less half-hearted. They're not gonna simply chop up a single game's length into several pieces. They're basically fleshing out each piece and filling it up with details to make each piece into an intricate game. Not to mention that sales from each game can contribute to the budget of upcoming sequels. I'm all for this.
I'm down for 3 separate physical release episodes if it means they put more effort into every part of the original storyline.
The scale of games have changed in 15 years and trying to jam everything in one game could be difficult.
If it's digital episodes though... I'll be really disappointed.

Nomura already confirmed it, but he's lied before so.

There's nothing wrong with doubts. There should be doubts
It's the "LOL THEY RUINED THE GAME FUCK SQUARE " that's ridiculous. We have no real details

So confused right now. Wouldn't this make it download only? How does this affect the RPG elements of the game? Would they carry across?
Yeah, you know me. I'm usually a very positive person.
But episodic content really grinds my gears. And combining it with my favorite FF ever... Well... Not a good mix.
I hope not.

Oh, so no autonomy.
Did Nomura play a TellTale game and become inspired?
Did all the money get tied up in and/or spent on XIIIVS cum XV that this is the quickest, dirtiest, and cheapest way to give the people what wanted allowing Sony to blow our minds during E3 using nothing more than words and our imaginations?

cause you absolutely begged them for it and went into blubbery hysterics at the mere mention of its existence.
they just can't help themselves.

I believe they still can. Restrict optional quest in each episode. Most of optional quest in ff7 is time restricted or unlock after certain point anyway, so yes, it could be done. Unless FF7 taking xenosaga approach, with each game offering different gameplay style to tell coherent storyline, which is not bad anyway

Wait, what? Confirmed what, that Don Corneo section won't be in this pos service-based "game"?
Yup. If Nomura is to be believed. This means more is actually preserved. If it was a released on a disc you'd imagine there would be some but content.
We really need more clarification on what they mean by this.
Think of how many completely unique areas FF7 had. You had a reactor, cyber punk downtown area, a church, a theme park, a slum, a multi-level corporate building, a canyon village, and way more, all of which were enterable and explorable.
You can't compare it to Witcher 3, Elder Scrolls V, or GTA V, all of which have at most 5 different types of environments, with lots of reused assets. GTA has a fair amount of unique buildings, but you can't enter most of them. All three games have more cohesive worlds than FF7.
Doing FF7 in full 3D with state of the art graphics is a mammoth undertaking with no precedent.
