Final Fantasy VII Remake |OT| The Unknown Journey Will Continue

[Himu]

Yeah, I'm actually starting to get mad it's ending at Midgar because I've been making plans for my party to be Cloud, Aerith, and Barret. But I know that party won't last long because Aerith won't be in your party too long along side Barret and I'm not big on how Tifa plays in contrast with other people.

Bro you're not an idiot man don't get too worked up we love you raphx!

[BlueTsunami]

Barrets height is hilarious. Look at how Cloud towers over normal townspeople and then look at how Barret towers over Cloud.

I guess what I'm trying to say is... its a girthy 14" at the minimum

Cloud is 5'8 though.

In the game proper he looks like he's over 6ft compared to some Midgarians

That's because it's based on Japanese people.

Barret is apparently 6'4-6'6 though. So his cock must be monstrous.

I didn't even think about that (avg height over here vs there). Makes more sense now. And Barret would tear through Japan like a BBC through wet tissue.

Holy fuck the FEELS

THE MUSIC

[Himu]

Holy crap the rooftop chat.

The character chemistry, the music, the atmosphere. It's perfect. Two of my most beloved characters brought alive. Jesus Christ I'm so emotional playing this. I can't believe this Dreams really do come true and magic truly is real. I can't believe this.

I love this game so much

Mr. Gundam and His 8 Year Old Daughter Play FFVII Remake Together.

She has some faint exposure to FFVII through the old Kingdom Hearts games and World of Final Fantasy, but doesn't know any of the big plot points from FFVII. This should be fun.

Chapter 1.

"Dad, what's up with Cloud. He's a jerk." 

"I want to know everything now! Tell me what's going to happen." "Everything will be explained, don't worry."

"Why is his hand a gun?"

"Why are you killing the security guards? Oh wait, Shinra are the bad guys aren't they."

Going down the ladder to set the bomb. "There's gonna be a boss right, where's the boss? Oh no boss c'mooooon. Yeah! There's the scorpion boss!"

"Boom! There goes Japan!" "Addie, this isn't Earth, and it's called Midgar. There's English and Japanese writing."

Now for my thoughts: The Scorpion boss fight was way easier than the demo. I felt like I did way more damage this time around.

[Himu]

When I first got my PlayStation I didn't have a memory card so I couldn't save. I did the midgar section almost every day for a month until I got a memory card. Meeting Aerith and her storyline was always my favorite. Seeing it fleshed out like this has taken me back to being 12 again and obsessed with this game.

I can't believe the inner FF fan within me was still alive after all this time. Fffiuu

Fuck that was me too. My parents had no idea it needed a memory card. So when I did get the card it made the final escape from Midgar that much more impactful.

Bro I'm positive I've done the midgar bit of FFVII at least 30+ times. No joke.

When i did finally get a card I left midgar in one sitting I was at junon the next day. The Kalm flashback blew my fucking mind.

The fact I waited a month to leave midgar, the fact it was my first rpg and I thought I'd never even leave midgar and that the entire game took place there. What a game.

[Joe Molotov]

The wait for Part Two is gonna be hard.

[Momo]

you mean 16? I'm done with Nomura and his shyte. Hoping the give Matsuno some freedom to do a return to Ivalice game as a reward for his success with 14

[Himu]

Matsuno won't direct a big budget FF ever again. He will likely write. YoshiP will likely direct.

[remy]

Yeah Yoshi P is getting promoted

[Momo]

That's fine, Matsuno is his favourite person and they work well together, as long as it doesn't come from the Nomura camp I'm good

[Himu]

It'll likely be XIV camp. Which is actually former XII staff. It's obvious they'll likely be rewarded with FF main line after XIV og almost bankrupted the company.

Although you don't like it, VII Remake is doing good job in restoring FF's name as top billing. The entire first entry is a statement that "20 years ago we were the best. Eat shit." They will capture the attention of old and new fans alike. Which is the perfect opportunity for XVI to knock it out of the park, which is why we haven't seen it nor have they announced. It's been developed for years - it's their current baby.

I'm definitely expecting XVI to be Squaresoft, not Square Enix, quality.

Can't wait.

[Himu]

Did a really fun battle with Cloud and Aerith. Tried to save video. Stupid Sony update wouldn't let me save video. Had to save game and update system. Restart and see the video is gone. Thanks Sony, fuck you.

[demi]

Now I get what recursive meant by the Phoenix Cave-like dungeon - yup, that's a thing

I want that squaresoft quality, listen im happy for people who like Nomura games, to me this is a giant trashfire but I dont begrudge people for wanting it and wanting more, there's room for the Matsuno style games and Nomura style, we can coexist happily.

I find it incredibly fun. GOTY.

Yeah once you get in the groove it looks slick as fuck. I especially like when you trigger multiple limit breaks

Exploring Sector 5. This video is for those that don't have the game to show how lived in this game is and what it's like exploring its world. I love it. It's precisely what I wanted. Only complaint is that you can't progress the story without doing side quests so it's limited in that capacity. Wish I could come back and do quests and explore the entire slums and top plate at my leisure eventually. Only real complaint with the game. Enjoy.

Finished it. Spoiler:

Hate that they're invoking some dumb god device to take  the story in a new direction.  I mean, I'm not destroyed by it -- it is only a video game, but it's still irritating that I was expecting one of my favorite games to simply be remade in higher fidelity with more thorough storytelling.  I was super naive with Square and should have known better. It's so obvious where they're going to take the story:   Aerith will still die.  Aerith's death in the original was involuntary, and they learned of the importance of it after the fact despite it being involuntary.  In the remake, the climax will occur during a tense and tender moment where they're all conscious of the fact that Aerith dying will save the planet.  They'll know ahead of time what her death means, so they're going to ham up the fact that Aerith sacrifices herself voluntarily, and it's going to be this big Jesus-like, aww isn't this profound moment.  The main crux of the game's narrative will now be about the party's personal challenges involved with willingly parting with your friend for the greater good of the planet.  This is so easy and predictable, that only Square would do it.

Ah well, still gonna be Square's little, dirty paypig and buy the rest.   :'(

To be fair, they've got the orphanage and people sector 5 are doing much better than the ones in 7.

21337's point is far more salient. By this point Cloud should have dropped the "I'm a merc" crap because he's clearly all in.

Aerith has a mailbox. Pretty soon we won't have a post office.

Man, thinking about it, 1200 gil is a lot in this game. You could do damage with that much assuming you're by yourself. If it's per person you can do even more. Got no need for weapons and stuff Cloud needs too. Just food.

edit:

Didn't they say they were broadcasting the feed of Airbuster. Shouldn't everyone in Sector 5 know who Cloud is at this point or am I missing something?

Aerith is also one of the few people with a TV, everyone else just has to stand around the middle of town to watch the feed.

I've seen lots of tvs though.

I love the CRT use in this.

[BlueTsunami]

I just want to say I was curious about how they would handle the gear in this, mainly weapons. Being the first part of three, of course we wouldn't be seeing ultimate weapons for each character. But how elegant a decision was building systems in each weapon to mitigate this? It's satisfying.

Yup they did a great job

[BlueTsunami]

Didn't realize until late game just how powerful Tifas Chi mechanic is. You can raise it one level above Omnistrike and spam triangle when an enemy is staggered to raise the extra damage level to 205%. Sheeeeeit.

I also dig how powerful spells are when used against large enemies. I'm reminded of Persona where exploiting weaknesses causes major damage. You can easily take out the annoying large mechs in this game with a couple of Thunderas. Where as with other RPGs it feels like you're still chipping at the enemy even when hitting a it's weakness. I hope they maintain this balance in the later entries.

[Great Rumbler]

The Shinra building looks so freakin cool at the start of chapter 16. 

[BlueTsunami]

My jaw actually dropped at that scene . One thing this game does is convey visual scope unlike any game I've seen. You just feel how massive and imposing Midgar is.

[Great Rumbler]

Wish the backdrop in Chapter 15 could have been as detailed, but it still did a pretty good job of showing the scale of even just 1/7th of the city.

[Himu]

Can't believe I got to hang out with Aerith. She's one of my favorite game characters and they've really did her so well. They've treated her as a damsel for so long I thought they'd make her character in this so weak but she's still the spunky, smart ass, street smart, caring woman we've always loved.

Holy fuck the layout of the bar with the clothing shop owner is verbatim right down to the purple light with the Disco ball at the karaoke stand and a dude that is holding in his shit at the toilet door because some girl (guy in this one) is sick off her ass.

I can't stop laughing throughout this entire town. This is amazing.

Holy shit the weapon shop still has a massive tank because of the mentally insane hoarder of an owner. Even the Loveless poster has the bad mid 90's bad Photoshop gradiant on the text.

I'm pretty sure the hell house took 20-30 minutes. What the fuck.

One complaint: the hell house boss fight is total dog shit and I should have just died and equipped new materia instead of slogging through it. Terrible, terrible terrible.

It did suck.
