Is there a Game trailers reaction to this or did they not have a live stream?

Checked their twitch archives earlier. Doesn't seem like they streamed it.

They were in the audience so no reaction this time.

My point is I have dislike almost every game Nomura has been heavily involved with in recent times so I would rather him not being apart of projects I'm interested in anymore, in any event what I want isn't gonna happen so at the very least I'll be happy for you guys.

Thank you for the consideration. Hopefully you end up one day playing and enjoying the game, even if it wasn't what you initially wanted to see.

I want the devs to make a game that is both faithful to the source material and new at the same time - so I can enjoy it as I enjoyed FFIV remake and Pokémon HG (to make some examples).

That's not going to happen. They will make what they want to make. What people consider faithful is completely objective based on the varied nature of the game.

There is literally zero way everyone was going to say this game was 100% faithful regardless of how 1:1 they made it to start.

I'm struggling with my wants for this game versus how long those wants would take to achieve.

Like a true 100% faithful remake (at least content wise) feels like it would take so long we wouldn't get the game till maybe X-Mas 2017..though I'd have no problem waiting that long if that's what it takes.

We might not even get the game until Holiday 2017 to start with, considering next year is already packed with KH 2.8, FF15, DQ11 and other SE games launching throughout the year.

Am I the only one who found the huge ass sword distracting on Cloud when he was exploring the city?

Hopefully it has a toggle off button

 

[Meliora]

Very excited about this! Now I wonder how they will handle RedXIII, he didn't look very good in Advent Children.

I'll start to play FF VII on PS4 this thursday. Gonna do this then, thanks!

 

[MagnaderAlpha]

Yeah, their "jobs" will make a difference this time, unlike the original game.

Cloud - Warrior?
Barret - Gunner
Tifa - Monk
Cid - Dragoon
Vincent - Other gunner?
Yuffie - Ninja
Cait Sith - Cat?
Aerith - White Mage?

I'd probably say Vincent's the gunner. Barret's arms aren't all guns. If there were a "robot" class with exchangeable arms(even though Barret's NOT a robot), I'd say that would be more fitting than "gunner". Though, if you still want to call Barret a gunner, you can always call Vincent a "Sniper".

[Go_Ly_Dow]

No one has talked about this version of bombing mission!

Very optimistic about the composer!

 

[ZangBa]

I watched the trailer again and I'm warming up to it after my initial disappointment. I hope it doesn't end up as boring as XV, though.

Barret better curse up a storm, Cid, too. Drink your GODAMN TEA, Shera.

Bruh Fall 2017 (which is when i expect it to release) is the earliest you can expect it.

 

[Acquiescence]

Cloud is absolutely perfect.

Barrett design and VA was even more incredible.

EVERYTHING IS RIGHT! ;_;

They did a good job nailing Barret's design after the botch job that was Advent Children. Need to see what he looks like without the sunglasses though.

 

[Epix]

Wonder if SE will have enough time to faithfully recreate all the different areas of the original in this remake. Seems like they may just keep the same main story arc and major plot points from the original but visit some new areas and leave some old ones out. Might make for a more refreshing remake to play anyway.

 

[Shin-Ra]

This bit looks so much like REmake/RE0.

 

[ZangBa]

It would be collected if they had character trailers up until release or whatever, since they can pretty much spoil everytging in this game anyway, and after all that hype building up, the day before release with a hype ass trailer with a small teaser at the end...


Genesis...

 

[cj_iwakura]

What non-major character are you all most psyched to see redone? For me it's probably the Shinra Execs. Heidegger in particular.

Sapphire Weapon is going to be godlike, he was already terrifying in FF7 proper.

(Boss fight please.)

 

[Kazuhira]

This game is gonna be so fucking awesome! i'm gonna miss turn-based battles though.
Disc 3 was the best part imo,chasing down and fighting all the weapon bosses was so much fun in the original game,can't wait to see how it looks and plays now.
And of course,Cloud crossdressing to enter the Honey Bee Inn lol

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

AVALANCHE look hawt.

 

[NIGHT-]

Liking almost everything I've seen so far. This is the most hype game for me along with RE2:remake.

Me too! 2 of my favorites from the ps1 era! Now I just need a mgs1 remake and some Dino crisis

Actually we kind of did many pages back. lol.

I think you weren't back yet but Falk said that bombing mission is from Distant Worlds. You can see its credit at the end of the trailer.

My thoughts exactly,glad to know i was not the only one

Gaaaaaaaaaaah, just thinking about all the new designs we're gonna see......

i already had a crush on Jesse when she was just a bunch of blocks
this is even better <3

 

[SolVanderlyn]

This bit looks so much like REmake/RE0.

It's the 90's inspired outfits, the way they carry their sidearms, and the running animation used. It really does look like Resident Evil.

 

[TheJollyCorner]

As much as I want a 2017 release, I believe Verendus has already stated that the dev team doesn't really care about meeting any kind of anniversary deadline.
They aren't going to stunt development just so they can put "20 Year Anniversary!" on the box.

Even if they are using UE4, this seems to me like a 4 year dev at minimum, especially if they want it done right.

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

I think you weren't back yet but Falk said that bombing mission is from Distant Worlds. You can see its credit at the end of the trailer.

That's a shame, It was perfect! Was hoping that would put composer fears to bed.

I wonder if the composer (whoever it is) will make a new version for the final game.

i wonder how much content they'll remove from the original. like weapons, enemies, locations and so on. i can't imagine that they'll do a 1:1 remake content-wise.

Yeah,me too.
It's a shame that she and the others..well you know what happens

Good thing they still have Toriyama around to give those moments the class they deserve.

 

[RPGCrazied]

I don't care the CE price for this, or if exclusive to the SE store, it will be mine.

Usually I don't like paying more than $100 for CE's, and I hate using SE's store.

 

[Inuhanyou]

I'm more curious about what they will add. More dialogue options, actually make the mini games not a chore to play through ect...

I don't think they will continue to allow us to change our character's name lol.

BTW the japanese version of the trailer has more than 700K views and the english one more than a million.

I got really used to the gang's Japanese voices, since it was a while before FF7AC was available in english after its release.

Glad to see they are all back and unchanged.

 

[Mr. Wonderful]

I mean, we knew it was going to happen, but I'm tired of action RPGs.

 

[Tankard]

I'm so stoked about this, i never in my wildest dreams expected the remake to either exist or look this good.

Also, i can't believe that they actually delivered on their promise of showing more about the Remake this year, let alone showing gameplay.

I give them a lot of heat for many of their decisions in the past years, but kudos to them on this one.

Now bring me my KH3 and FFXV.

 

[raven777]

They were in the audience so no reaction this time.

oh that's why..... shame since I love their reactions.

I hope they recorded their reactions from the show..

Agreed. It's nice to imagine that maybe- just maybe- this might be the first actual competent major FF development since FFXI.
XII, XIII, XIV, and XV (well, as Versus) all had their share of production problems.

I want to believe in the 'new' Square-Enix. :}

 

[Toparaman]

Any higher quality video available?

 

[aerts1js]

Looks great! I'm a little concerned about the voice acting.

 

[Kenzodielocke]

I still can't believe this is happening. What in the world happened at SE to fucking get on their asses and start working on games that people want ?
