Final Fantasy 7 Remake Trilogy Discussion - News and Lore Yappin, Griefers GTFO

[oh no its pipkun]

I mean rockstar shits on squenix they don't have to try. And it would be nice bc grinding all my shit to max level just for it to get set back to level one was a big development flaw for a game like this

you can turn on cheats in the pc menu.

Is there a possibility with this trilogy of ff7 remake being a one-game after a patch on PC?
Cockstar done that with GTA IV, merging the DLC's in one game.

I could see them trying to double dip and entice people who haven’t played the first two games to buy a trilogy.

I personally played the first one on PS4 when it released. Thought it was mid but wanted to wait until a third one has a release date.

Might pick up part 2 and play it in December when I take off work for Christmas week. Is Rebirth worth the $20 on a Steam sale?

They were selling Remake/Rebirth as a double pack, so it's assumed we'll get a triple pack option this time around.

I feel it's very worth it at 20 considering how much time you can get out of it, just don't try to do everything in a zone at once and get burnt out. It went on sale when they announcd Revelation and still should be right now.

 

[GeorgeFloydFentanylStash]

I'm just going to say what has been said a lot. DO NOT try to play through all three games in one go. The first 2 combined are probably 150 hours or more. So far it looks like Revelations is another big one.

It’s how we like our FF7, several hundred fucking hour play through.

They couldnt even put the most iconic scene of ff history in a fkn modern game. I wanna take the drugs your on

Because a funeral scene is a downer. No, we got to have alt Aerith talk to Cloud in a field so that he gets closure. Or something.

It wouldn't be a problem if these asshats didn't split everything up into 3 games that take 10 years to release. But even so, you can still have a game that ends on a downer when we already know there's another part coming. And it would follow the 3 act structure, like the original Star Wars trilogy. 1st part establishes everything and has the good guys win, 2nd part the villain comes back and it ends on a downer/cliffhanger, then the 3rd part has the heroes rise up again to win once and for all. It's the most basic storytelling technique that has worked since the beginning of time...but I guess modern audiences can only handle pointing at the screen and clapping like seals when they see their favorite characters so we gotta fuck everything up and not make people think too hard. That and the modern developers that can't just stick with source materials and have to make changes to "prove themselves" that they know better and deserve their jobs.

Oh well, I guess I can look forward to the remake of Empire Strikes Back, where Han doesn't get frozen and there's a 5 minute dialogue with him and Leia using the force to talk to each other and Leia tells him she'll save him from Jabba. Also Luke doesn't lose his hand, he just cries like a bitch after Vader tells him he's his father until Leia shows up and pulls him to safety. Then she pulls out her own Lightsaber and has an epic duel against a giant Emperor Palpatine hologram alongside Obi-Wan's ghost where they win after the ghost of Padme also shows up and kills the hologram with a blaster. Then they all dance with Ewoks as the credits roll.

If you didn't spend at least 150.hours on a playthru was it a playthru?

The Disney fication of everything male loved is a cancer. And if they did a remake of star wars u already know luke will be a lesbian and han will be black. And there will be a whole scene dedicated to freeing some endangered species of some shit.

once again nomura is a fucking bitch for not seeing this thru and the giving it to his ass buddy hamaguchi

Every one of my PS1 playthroughs had the timer maxed out at 99:99. And this was multiple playthroughs.

most of that was grinding. the actual story and side quests was maybe 20-30 hours long.


how do i give tifa a fat ass? she's very flat ass.

 

[Racial Slurs the Movie]

Tried INTERmission but I bounced off Yuffies gameplay hard, went into rebirth and absolutely loved Red XIII's

Dogs > Asian girls.

As soon as it was clear they were doing a new story using FF7 I knew Aerith would live because that's the only, or primary, way for Cloud to complete his Hero's Journey since defeating Sephiroth is something he'd have already done.

So I was less put off by the changes to Rebirth's ending, least of all since I expected an attempt at the iconic original with VOICE ACTING to be cringe, because at least they aren't doing me the dishonor of pretending otherwise.

That said I didn't really update my priors with the Multiverse nonsense. I mean, I wouldn't really find it satisfying if some other Aerith lives in place of the one who actually did all the work to save the world. Then again I also assumed Sephiroth killed that other Aerith.

It would be funny if Square somehow pissed everyone off by reviving Aerith but also not really the same Aerith.

Also this is why Multiverse Stories are worse than Time Travel, and Time Travel is notoriously tricky, because it would be meaningful and resonant if (for example) Cloud defeated Sephiroth in the timestream so he's lost forever and events are reconfigured so that Aerith lived but never met Cloud. That's sort of how Edge of Tomorrow ended. And it's sort of the same thing as an Aerith From Another Universe living in ours in the place of the Aerith we actually knew, but isn't creepy.

Edge of Tomorrow's ending scene for context.
