Deep down inside you know the remarke wont have a world map
>>319524306
That would suck dick if it didn't.
>>319524306
I've dropped the idea of that piece of shit since the "episodic release" was revealed.
>any portions that would involve a world map are just replaced by waiting on the next chapter of the game to come out for $15 which conveniently starts at the next location
Whatever. I don't really care to be honest. The story is good and these are characters from my childhood so I will gladly play through it one more time with new graphics and new gameplay. I don't want exact copy of old game, I can play that any time.
>>319524306
1. Download FF7
2. Install New Threat
3. ???
4. Fuck the remakes!
>>319524306
Overworlds were created because of technical limitations, even the developers didn't want them at the time - if they have one here it'll just show they're no better than Nintendo and really are making a jew move rather than making an actually good product.
>>319524306
It really all depends on how they want to handle it. The only reason to have a world map is for the Highwind and Chocobos. They were iconic. Changing it to a bunch of interconnected set pieces means that Chocobos would be cut and given what they said about making sure not to cut as much as possible. I doubt this will be the case.
>>319525908
>Chocobos would be cut without an overworld
Yup, just like in FF10, 11, 12, 13, 14, and 15. I really miss them!
The original had 3 CDs
I feel like the devs figured "yeah sure let's remake FF7" and then made the Midgar footage
and are rapidly backpedaling and running damage control on the fact they are only now just realizing exactly what the fuck they've signed up for
FF7 was fucking enormous

I said the other day that if you get FF7 remade in the quality shown so far for $120 you got an amazing deal
it represents more work/manpower than any game ever made by an order of magnitude. you have to make thousands of little props to use them one time.
>>319525908
What if they make it so that the world map itself is cut but every location has a huge surrounding area

>>319526092
70 hours is long as shit.
>>319526230
>Who the fuck thought a 2 minute+ summon was a good idea?
Having shit like that in game was a fucking novelty back then. It was a selling point to people. Since it was never done before no one was thinking about how long the animation is and how slow it made the battles.
>>319526189
It's so easy to spot the FF15 kids.
>>319526386
By JRPG standards? At the time, yes, now? Not really. A lot of JRPGs reach 80+ in a normal not even 100% run, over a hundred if you want to do everything, and some of those - for example, Xenosaga's trilogy, are "episodic" like this and each game is about 80 hours long.
FF7 is an average length and average content game by the standards of PS2 and on.
>>319526515
I was talking about games in general.
>>319526494
As opposed to people who played it back in the '90s and wished it had been better?
Final Fantasy devs didn't have a clue about how massive a 'realistic sized' gameworld would be. No jRPG or wRPG have ever come closer--I guess the Witcher 3 tried with Novigrad.
I mean, a realistic-scope Midgar alone would be big enough to fill your average shallow bethshit sandbox game AND THEN SOME.
Meanwhile Bethesda's capital city of Skyrim was 4 fucking buildings and an outhouse, Population: 5.
RPG developers have always relied on the gamer to fill in the gameworld using their imagination.
>>319526515
>A lot of JRPGs reach 80+ in a normal not even 100% run
Time spent grinding isn't time that factors into time to clear a game.
>>319526587
Daggerfags are going to come shitting on you now.
>>319526230
If they have skippable animations now I don't care how long it is. And some shit I'll watch every time anyways. Neo Granzon in Supee Robot Wars: Dark Prison has a 2 minute long attack and I watch that shit every time.

For someone who hasn't played FF7but has had a lot of it spoiledis it better to pirate Steam version or emulate PS1 version on PC?
>>319526494
If you want to play the same exact game with prettier graphics you can mod the PC version nigga. And if the remake turns out to be shit you won't be buying it anyways so it will mean nothing to you. Unless you're a fag who thinks things can be retroactively ruined.
>>319526571
Back in its gen FF7 was spectacular, there's a reason people still talk about it to this day.

play it in native resolution stretched out to fill your screen. when people increase the resolution on FF7 it ruins the look of the game because you have these crisp characters over low res backgrounds.
>>319526826
I still have the original PSX version, faggot (with the FFVIII preview disc). Was impressed by the FMVs, but the battle system was a chore.

Just let it go. Good games in the 90s were only made because of technical limitations, even the developers never wanted them to be good. Fortunately the technology has advanced enough for us to finally enjoy shitty $120 episodic "cinematic action" games. Stop clinging to the past, nostalgiafag.

This is the back of an actual original FF7 case. You wouldn't know because you have never seen one.
If you think that there was an FF8 preview ready the day FF7 came out, you are beyond fucking stupid.
>>319524306
to be optimistic rather than cynical for once, it's either a Type-0/Dissidia 0012 style world map, or maybe since the numerous areas of the world map are condoned off thanks to various mountain passes, towns, caves and otherwise, that they could make each region explorable in its own right
.. yeah, nah, probably just the PSP game style overworld
>>319525986
People keep saying this and I can't help but feel one of two things: you're either a person who has never played the game and thinks the 6 hour long games now were always standard or you're a person who did play it however you haven't touched any JRPG besides final fantasy.
Remember that some parts of the overworld are inaccessible until later in the game this is the excuse they'll use when it comes to saving data and making it episodic
>>319527937
>disc got pressed a few months later
>i-it doesn't count!
Sure thing, kiddo. The PAL version was released several months after the US release (thanks, Yurop), so yeah, we got the FFVIII preview pretty soon after that.
>>319528084
>you haven't touched any JRPG besides final fantasy.
this is a really, really, really bad argument to try to make. Because while JRPGs are typically long, they are also typically pure trash, that you cannot get into if you are not okay with immersing yourself in the unchanging japan-ness of them.
FF7 was a great game that, like the back of the box above says, exceeded its competitors. It was something of a minor cultural phenomenon in the West even. Other JRPGs being long doesn't mean a damn thing, because they suck, with their weebed out designs, horrible characters, bad music, and 1/10 writing.
>>319527906
Reminder that you begged for the remake and now you won't stop crying about it.
>>319528179
it doesn't count, look how they slaughtered the back of the case compared to the subtle US version
>>319528206
FF7 was pretty weeb, but it had an equal amount of counter-weeb going on with it as well. I think the creepy Lovecraftian story balanced it out. Jenova is seriously one of the best and most interesting BBE's I've seen in any game.
The game wasn't as absolutely enormous as some people make it out to be. Infact it was filled with a bit of padding like a lot of JRPGs, as well as revisiting older areas that may of been tweaked or had new rooms / portions available like Junon. If anything, the world map basically served as one giant excuse to create a bunch of disconnected towns, areas and dungeons easily that they could throw all sorts of unique content into. Dungeons literally vary between three or four screens long, and being comparable to the SNES games in terms of a multitude of areas to go through - but usually unless there was a puzzle or extra goodies out of the way, they were often pretty damn linear for cinematic value that the SNES games could never pull off.
>>319528297
It isn't weeb at all. Japan wasn't rolling in this new cultural phase of absolute sameness until about the year 2002.
you can see the progression though... cloud is like 10% weeb
then squall is 50% weeb
then tidus is 1000000000000000000% maximum weebshit
>>319526494
How can you be an FF15 kid if the game isn't even out yet?
>>319527356
This is a different guy from me who is being a shitter. I have the PAL version with three disks.
FFVII was really good in certain ways, but was otherwise thoroughly underwhelming. It was nowhere near as freeform or interactive as I had hoped. It was only on playing Ocarina of Time and Baldur's Gate that I actually experienced games that to me, live up to the kind of reputation VII had gathered, and provided experiences impressive enough to truly awe me. I hope the remake is able to actually meet the expectations I originally had for it.
>>319527937

Jenova was quite literally The Thing from the movies, although that isn't a bad thing at all.

>>319528451
baldurs gate came out almost 2 yeras after ff7

>>319528297
FF7 had an anime-style aesthetic with Cloud and Yuffie and Cait Sith, and then you get fucking Mr. T with a machinegun arm, a big-breasted girl in a hooker outfit that fucking beats the shit out of abominations with her bare hands repeatedly, Vincent who is anime as fuck but doesn't give a shit as he shoots you in the face before becoming Jason Vorhees, and Cid goddamn Highwind.
>>319528451
I liked it overall, but found it very uneven. The world for example was genuinely interesting and felt fresh compared to most vidya at the time. The battle system, on the other hand, was just something to be endured.
>>319528482
>>319528496
Why dont you do it yourselves
>>319525986
I don't doubt that their patented laziness set in once they announced it but I think the real culprit is lack of patience. They know no matter what this is going to sell and they don't want to wait 4-5 years to release it, instead they want to push it out in pieces as soon as they can to start collecting money sooner.
>>319528653

>>319525603
No they were created because of Dungeons and Dragons and random encounters...
A world isn't immersive if you can't explore and interact with it. Fuck its part of why people still care about 7, because it was the last one to majorly create a series of interconnecting places with shit do in them.
>>319528623
Hence, why I said "only on playing". Those games came out later, and offered far richer and more immersive experiences. FFVII was a very rigid, game with piecemeal constructed systems mashed together, instead of the unified, highly interactive worlds offered by the above mentioned games.
>>319528665
I personally loved the ideas behind the materia system, and to this day consider it one of the best, if not the best ability systems in any game. It's just that, like you say, its wasted on an atrocious battle system.
>>319527772
>over 120 minutes of mind-blowing cinematic sequences
I miss the days when that was considered an exciting novelty. Now pretty much every game under the sun is trying to be a cinematic experience.
>>319528825
No, that's not how Square does things.
FFXV will come with the FF7 remake beta/demo, that's their old school tactic.
>>319529179
you're comparing a game designed for a 30mhz processor with a game designed for a 133mhz processor. you can't expect ps1 games to provide the "varied experience" you'd get from something like BG, it wasn't possible.
I get what you're trying to say but it isn't very important. The game of this era to me was Quake, not FF7, but it doesn't make FF7 less legendary to me.
>>319526587

To the games credit I think it may actually be a lie. The opening, ending, midway point where all hell breaks lose are the only CG scenes of any length. Pretty sure all are less than 5 minutes or 1/5th a MGS codec conversation. Most of the rest were quick transitions to highlight a scene or area.
Hell I may have to go dig in the files that 120 can't be right.
>>319526636
Daggerfall is procedurally generated so it doesn't count. We're talking handcrafted here.

There's a lot that are small, 30 seconds to a minute. It adds up eventually.

This was back when fancy cutscenes were new and a big thing. It was amazing, but then it got tiring when they became common.
>rereading ff7 shit
wait, so it was jenova that stabbed aeris and sephiroth was chillin in that cocoon the whole time?
it never really made sense, now that I think about it. I just put the game in the back fo my head somewhere as a comprehensive experience even if it never made sense
>>319531035
Jenova body, but Sephiroth mind.
Sephiroth was remote controlling Jenova the entire time.
>>319530556
I think the cd box designers had no idea what they were doing. Hell, they even put an image of Aeris/th death scene.
>>319531035
>>319531103
Sephiroth was also related to Aeris. Notice they had the similar bangs?
>>319529608
Everything's grey blurry and soulless
If you took the sword away this could be any other game, nothing else is distinct
FFVII has some Resident Evil tier creepy moments thinking back.
Game was pretty fucking spooky when I was like 13. Think they'll keep the horror stuff intact?
>>319531407
they aren't related, sephiroths mother is lucrecia
>>319531407

>>319528452
Dumb frogposter
>>319531103
>Sephiroth was remote controlling Jenova the entire time
I still feel the whole idea behind that is bullshit and that everything has more integrity if its more the other way around. The fact that she was apparently physically stabbed with the sword really doesn't make much sensewhich is why my theory is that they originally intended Cloud to kill her, but pussied out.
>>319531440
It won't be as scary without the janky polygon graphics
>>319531407
You mean Lucretia, since he is her son and has almost identical hair.
Sephiroth and Aerith aren't related by either genes or origin.
Sephiroth's hairstyle is a perfect blend of Lucrectia's and Hojo's
>>319531572
What is it about that shit that makes me legitimately scarier than all these incredibly detailed models now?
Low poly Resi 2 still gives me the fucking willies after all these years.
>>319531542

Fuck off.
It's been confirmed time and time again by devs and in the Ultimania.
Sephiroth was remote controlling Jenova, not the other way around.

What? Where the hell are my 2 minute long awesome as fuck summons and attacks nowadays then?
Modern cutscenes aren't shit because they're long but because they're boring
A good example of progression is some of the CGI cutscenes in FFXIII which just turn things up to 11
>>319531542
>>319531650
that does make less sense though. why would sephiroth be able to control a super ancient ultra organism thing, and not only that but one that has "reunion" where it tries to rejoin its own cells to itself
wouldn't sephiroth just have been integrated if he got too close?
>game is released through steam
>meaning involvement with valve
>game only gets to episode 2
>episode 3 is bared from Steam due to religious reasons
>>319531751
Because Sephiroth got literally made out of Jenova cells.
In a way, he's a clone of Jenova. Unlike all the people who were experimented on that had Jenova cells injected into them long after birth, Sephiroth was literally made out of Hojo's sperm mixed with Jenova cells.

Are underagers really this stupid? Do you really think that back in the 90's we were playing PS1 saying "wow, these graphics are pretty bad. I wish this looked more like the games in the future". The game was amazing for it's time. The fact that you think the game in it's original state is bad, proves that you're underage.

The realtime 3d wasn't impressive at the time. Even other PS1 games looked better. Quake, a game released 6 months earlier, blew it away. Not really a fair comparison though..John Carmack's prime vs japs

They really shouldve just continued making handheld remakes.
It wouldnt look amazing, but it would look nice enough compared to FF7 itself.
These handheld remakes generally keep most of the core gameplay the same and then tweak things to make a bit more sense.
We generally wouldnt see as many retarded changes.

I didn't even mention the bloody graphics, though it doesn’t surprise me that that's the first thing you brought up. Tomb Raider had better gameplay, was more immersive and had much more interesting level design, but you folks don't care about details like that now do you? You need to stop acting like it blew anything out of the water gameplay wise. I'm even going to be gracious and not compare it directly to the games that came out the year after for now.

>>319533980
It's the only possible way. And you know it. The game will be a lot more like ME where you can keep your exp/items/lvl going further through the episodes, and SE gonna have some tough time balancing the monsters
>>319533887
Either a coincidence or Gackt himself got "inspired" by Squall. FFVIII was unveiled in early 1998, with the designs already finalized.
>>319534090
Even Squall's earliest design from 1997 has the same clothes.

I remember LR
>oh so it's 4 big hubs
>I wonder where these long corridors go
>oh they're locked, fuck it Toriyama
>a key? What? No way
>oh fuck they lead to the other hubs
>haha, you brilliant motherfucker

JRPG world maps are immersive level select screens, they have nothing to do with open world
>>319532452
THEY SAY ALL TEENAGERS SCARE
THE LIVING SHIT OUTTA ME

>Traversing the world to go from mission to mission
What's the difference? The dedicated locations for missions?
>>319532638
>Small, tightly designed stages are comparable to a sprawling open world
i see
Why are world map themes so comfy?

Is it just nostalgia?
>>319526034
>instant kill with long pre-rendered cutscene which acts as a bad ending
>>319524306
yeah, nor will it have a good battle system nor will it have the great materia system of before nor will it have many great scenes that it once had.
I've given up on that remake.
>>319535560
It will have a better battle system by default
no main series FF game has done turn based combat right
>>319535614
>not playing X
even then, I'll take a average TB battle system over a mindless action one
>>319524306
What if it was completely open world instead?
>>319526092
eh, its more about the fact that its one of the few 70 hour games where there was so much detail poured into almost all of it. Very little of the side content is completely useless unlike so many other games.
>>319535560
>materia system
>great
>>319525957
>VII remake is episodic
>The original was on 3 disks tho!
yeah but we got all 3 disks at once numpnuts
>>319535705
I've played Atlus games, kid. I don't Square's attempts at turn based 'combat'
>>319535841
>loads of customization options not great
>>319535742
That's even worse.
>SE cuts out content
>shills: i-it was n-never good to b-begin with guys
>pls B excited
>>319525957
The reason it even needed 3 cds was because of the fmv file sizes. You were still able to visit every area in the game despite which disc you used so long as you been to that area before for story reasons. Fuck off
>>319524306
good, it's the second worse thing in that game after the combat
>>319535705
>ATB
>anything but mindless
You do exactly the same three things as in the action battle systems (attack, heal, use strongest magic), except without any positioning, parrying or skill, plus everything is arbitrarily slowed down.
>>319536241
and the solution is to improve the existing TB battle system, not throw the baby out with the bathwater in favor of an action one
Why can't you squeenix drones get this through your fucking heads?
Or do you actually think the action combat will be anything other than button mashing eye candy?
>>319525957
3 CDs that all come with 1 purchase and all having the entire game data on each one of them with the exception of FMVs which were the reason why game was divided into discs.
>>319533556
Whoosh
>>319536458
They've had 24 years to "improve" it. Maybe it's time to admit that ATB is fundamentally shit and other battle systems do strategy and/or skill-based gameplay better.
>>319524306
how will we get yuffie and knights of the round? What about chocobo breeding?
sure they could change all that, but I dont think they will remove the overworld
>>319537064
>how will we get yuffie and knights of the round?
DLC
>>319536834
>other battle systems
please name those other battle systems, anon
>>319536834
>Maybe it's time to admit that ATB is fundamentally shit
Its not.
I think its funny how people who dont like FF demand changes to the core gameplay formula.
Its just like devs making things for the CoD audience.
Will we atleast get comfy music?
>>319537667
if they're faithful to the original OST, sure
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6XVjAXaELIg
but let's be real, they'll probably water it down
>>319537952
>techno and metal remixes
>>319525941
>>319526809
to be honest there's nothing wrong with the Steam version. they've fixed the soundtrack with patches and you get better looking models by default, with the ability to play the default shitty looking graphics if you want. and you get a cheat thing that lets you max out a few things.
im enjoying it, havent played VII before so im trying to pretend i have nostalgia goggles and think "wow this was groundbreaking back then".
>>319538250
I'd take that over Japanese dubstep.
>>319538250
As long as they don't pull a FF10 HD on it I'm ok.
At least with the AC OST they showed they understood the original material and did it justice. It's maybe a bit too heavy for a game but it shows hope that someone at SE knows what they were doing. I'm really excited to hear the whole OST redone, we get remixes/remakes of a few key songs but there are so many that get ignored.
