3 Dicks Out For Trips

Chapter 2 can't come fast enough. I'm interested to see how they handle the next part since it's where the game moves into the open world. I can't decide if they'll do a world map though, have it typical open world style (skyrim/witcher style) or have it done hub style with large open areas with interconnected towns/dungeons/etc scattered around each hub. I imagine it will be the hub style most likely. I just want to jack the Midgar Zoloms shit and steal the beta skill from him tbh.

1 year later what's everyone's thoughts now?
I take back the thing I said about you won't have chocobo breeding and the sunken gelnika side quests... Someone made the point that when remaking this game, they had to address every single aspect of it because it's so many people's favorite game and any given thing could be someone's favorite part of it. There's so much pressure on this remake that they have to address every aspect of it, lest someone be left with a bad taste in their mouth because whatever obscure thing they loved about ff7 wasn't included. I enjoyed playing this game well enough but I find that I have not thought about it much after beating it. I'm like, "oh yeah, that game came out last year." The fact that they announced a remaster of the game for ps5 is just absurdly hilarious to me |

I'm definitely in the minority here but I honestly thought it was a huge disappointment and the story was hot garbage. Gameplay was good. Midgar lost a lot of its charm and I got the biggest kick out of the stupid giant robot hand randomly being turned into a dungeon gimmick rather than anything else. Wall market sucked. The story beats fell flat. Too much Sephiroth and forcing his backstory in way too early. Forgettable (apparently invincible) NPCs straight out of FFXV. Zero stakes. The way they handled the plate destruction was just straight bullshit. The fake out with Barrett was stupid. The plot armour destiny ghosts were dumb as fuck. Seeing the monsters with clear designs instead of collections of geometric shapes was nice. Not really anticipating part two. I'd rather replay the original than do this one again.

the last one will be called Final Fantasy 7 Reloaded
It's a shame that current gen games all follow this same structure of like, get an objective, follow a little arrow to it, do some real time combat, all the while they have the same exact style of the camera following behind your guy and dialogue appearing at the bottom of the screen or w/e. It felt like before the PS3 days RPG's were all different, you had some with pre rendered backgrounds, you had music setting the tone for the scenes, all different types of battle systems, different looking dialogue boxes and styles, different world map mechanics, now it all just feels the same. There's an official game that's coming out that's more like a proper "remake/remaster" of the whole FF7 timeline, including moments from the original game (tbh not sure how much of it though). Seems more interesting to me than the big remake. But i think it's only coming out for mobile or some shit |

I've reached the part where you fall into Aerith's church and are running from the Turks.
So far the shadow creatures haven't made me throw up in my mout and turn it off, like it did Destor. |

I'm wondering if with the announcement of the Crisis Core remaster that we can expect Genesis to actually play a part in the FF7 remake trilogy. I think we might because I've become more and more convinced that remake is actually a sequel.
