A lot of the features they tout in this port aren't in FF7's port on PC, but are on PS4. FF8 isn't on PS4, so I dunno what it does/doesn't have.

I've never seen this game without the Vaseline lens before. Looks pretty.

Waiting for impressions, and maybe for the price to hit $10. Hopefully it's good though. The only FF I've never played, not counting the FFX and FF13 sequels.
You are always my hero Falk. Thank you!
Love letter to the old Final Fantasy. Was my first Final Fantasy back then and it still is my favourite one. So much character development and awesome ones. German translation was also very good.
PS4 version of FF7 has features that the Steam version of FF7 does - most notably fast forward. The achievements list are also different and in my very expert (...) achievement opinion the PS4 trophy is list much better refined.
Bafflingly enough, FF8 Steam had fast forward added in some time after release, but they never did it for FF7 Steam. It's not the first time a feature like that has been included in a Final Fantasy game either (see: FFXII IZJS)

I'm amazed how well the game holds up given it was a PS1 game

Well, I mean I've heard the game itself is good (albeit very slow in battles), but I'm more concerned about quality of the PC port itself

my tween memories wouldnt lie to me
The main reason I'm happy this finally happened is that they can now announce the FFX/X-2 ports
After FF15 comes out on consoles. Priorities.
Nah he's mostly right. It's not the worst FF (that's 4), but it's a pretty boring nostaliga-driven entry which doesn't have much to say or offer on its own. Bad villains, silly plot, way too much omg-look-at-me-remember-me references to older FFs. Gimme something unique and different like FF8 any day. Or something that offers a truly fleshed out gameplay system like FFV's job system.

Worst part of this game was loading between battles/moves. I assume speed booster helps this immensely?
I havent played any pre-PS1 era FF's but I would actually say FF9 is my third favorite FF after 8 and 10. (I know, getting around to SNES era ones eventually)

Played two minutes.
Font/interface sadly still feels a bit mobile-y.
Backgrounds, as expected, look like muddy and upscaled in 1080p.
Character models look great though.
Edit: Oh, was basically no delay whatsoever loading into the Masked Man battle at the start. So that's a plus. But I forgot if there was the usual delay on that on PS1 or not.

All this time to port FF9 to PC and they couldn't add a 4th achievement "FLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOR!!!!!!!"
HA!
That would have been fucking great!

now im the one upset!
If only it's story was as good as 8, I especially enjoyed when they got fired into space out of a cannon.
At least it had Vivi. A far more fleshed out character than both Cloud and Squall combined.

Slow battles have been "fixed" with this version, because you can just speed through.
Makes the game even way better. Sadly the backgrounds won't look as good as they could have, but the cutscenes have been rescaled (?) and they look good. Character models have been updated too.
Let's hope the PC port is as good as this.this will probably be the cheapest it'll be for awhile. FF games don't seem to drop below $15 too often on steam
really conflicted personally... good deal but i don't feel like playing it anytime soon

I still go and read the Ultimecia time travel theory once a year. FF8 really is underrated.

i love you
True, Vivi is a good character. Cloud and Squall are pretty much dull anti-social shells for teenage players of that era to fill in themselves though. Supporting characters in FF are always more interesting than the leads.
Could you post a screenshot of the interface?
Looks like 15% already got this acievement...
I wonder if there were some really patient beta testers/developers or if they just used an achievement unlocker.
ULTROS!
People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.
FFII cuz you can kill your teammates and level up by doing that.

That's really....super depressingly accurate. On a side note, being that I never played X and up, does that trend ever change??

It's actually not that hard, you just need to listen to the hops.
It's possible, but we only know of around 40 of those that still exist out of hundreds that are in the game.
When FFII and FFXIII exist, dissing IV seems cruel.
Where can I read this?

Didn't get one with the battle commands up, and bedtime for me now.
Eh.... Tidus is whiny, but gets better and Vaan and his abs are just... there. Lightning, lol
It does get better. I'm hoping the ff7 reboot doesn't go back there entirely.

It seems there are a lot of problems, including controllers don't be recognized in the game.

FF2 is a very underrated FF which also formed a template of sorts for the Romancing SaGa games. I like it quite a lot!
I feel pretty much the opposite about everything you just said, including regarding FF8, which was probably the most disappointed I've ever been in a video game.
