Surprised there's no thread about this:
http://epicstream.com/news/Final-Fantasy-VII-Remake-Will-Be-Multiple-Full-Sized-Games-Plots-May-Changed-Significantly
Square Enix has clarified the Final Fantasy VII Remake's episodic structure, saying that it will include multiple, full-sized games instead of smaller episodes.
In the latest issue of Game Informer, producer Yoshinori Kitase revealed the details, saying that the team was using Final Fantasy XIII series, which comprised of a total of three games, as a model.
"The reimagined epic will be the next core Final Fantasy instalment--or rather, instalments," Game Informer's writer says. "When the project was first announced, people were confused by its multi-part nature, but the goal is to structure it more like Final Fantasy XIII than an episodic series."
The development team are looking to structure it like FFXIII, with three full, 30+ hour JRPGs spun out of FFVII's original three discs.
"Whereas with Final Fantasy VII Remake, we already have a preexisting story, so it wouldn't really make sense if that isn't encompassed in a multi-part series... So if we're just looking at each of these parts, one part should be on par with the scale of one Final Fantasy XIII game."
you're a day late faggot
The day this got announced, I went out and bought a PS4.
Release date announcement when?
>>333433034
No tifa reveal don't care
>>333433132
>mfw it comes out for the PS5 instead
>>333433132
>he went and bought already obsolete no-gaems toy
>during the era when Square's pushing all their FF games on PC
top. fucking. kek!
>>333433280
Yeah, wouldn't that just beat all?
I originally bought the PS3 when that FF7 tech demo came out.
>c'mon guys, CLEARLY they're doing a remake for the PS3!
>they wouldn't make that whole thing and not release it
>>333433383
>a few hundred dollars means something to him
Calm down there, poorfag.
So is it now pretty much confirmed that the first whole game is going to be about midgar?
So, not really a remake at all then?
>>333433383
Woah.... Didn't know Final Fantasy XV was finally coming out for the PC. Mind sharing the details with us? Better do it quickly or I'm gonna post the full goldenface and get you BTFO.
>>333433034
An entire game that takes place in Midgar.
Followed by an entire game that takes place of the hunt for Sephy and Clouds "awakening".
Followed by an entire game about beating up the weapons, beating up Shinra, and beating up Sephy.
Sounds motherfuckin BOOORRRING.
>>333433583
Game #1 ends at leaving Midgar
Game #2 ends at Cloud getting fucked up by the lifestream
Game #3 finishes the game
Disc 1, 2, and 3 changed into FFVII: Avalanche, FFVII: Weapons, FFVII: Meteor.
Like pottery.
>>333433713
>he seriously thinks it's not inevitable
>SE even stated that they're looking into potential PC version mere days ago
>FF9 coming soon, XIII trilogy was a surprise hit on Steam, etc.
>>333433749
nah I could see Game #2 ending on a cliffhanger with Cloud getting fucked up.
Then Game #3 starts with Tifa as the main character
>>333433034
Welp, lost interest already. All these 30hr episodes will be 60 bucks each and reused assets everywhere. Screenshot this.
>>333433713
>Didn't know Final Fantasy XV was finally coming out for the PC.
yeah because that's so rare for a FF game to come to PC
>>333433871
>FFIX is coming soon
Nice meme
>20 years ago
>this game is too big for one disc, so we'll package 3 discs together and sell it
>today
>this game is too big for one disc, so we'll sell them separately
>>333433816
That doesn't make sense. That's like 75% of the game in the second installment.
They already have natural break points in the original release based on the discs. Each disc ended on a cliffhanger.
>>333433932
Sure, and maybe thats interesting but at the same time the series will end up frontloaded. The last game will be such a "Come the fuck on already!". No one will even -want- to sidequest.
>>333434043
They aren't just splitting up the disks, retard. They are making each section a full-size game. This is going to be an epic remake, I just hope it comes out on PC
>>333434065
>That's like 75% of the game in the second installment.
Well they said they're taking liberties with the story, so I expect a bunch of changes. Look, obviously the third disc of FFVII originally was pretty shit. I bet they're going to add a bunch of new stuff to make it better.
This is gonna be awesome imo
>>333433034
>The development team are looking to structure it like FFXIII
I'd like to make a point of the fact that I didn't fucking buy and of the FFXIII games either.
Or any of the Starcraft IIs.
Splitting content up into episodic chunks just for money is something I'll never get behind.
>>333433034
>Let's make the most beloved FF game more like the most hated FF game!
>What could go wrong!?
>>333434301
This exactly.
>>333434290
Disc 3 had all the fun mini-games and optional boss fights.
>episodic rpg
Who the fuck is retarded enough to actually want this?
>grind to level 99, but when you start ep 2 your level is lowered to what SE deem appropriate, or each ep has a level cap
>areas you visited in earlier episodes are unavailable in later ones
>no freedom in order of events e.g Yuffie quest at Wutai happens when SE says so, not when you choose to go there
>>333434145
Here is the reason video game industry is garbage. Because people like this just support every anti consumer thing showing devs they can get away with anything.
god damn why is /v/ so full of fucking whiners
get over yourselves
I'm still baffled by the way they're splitting FFVII up into different parts. It was always going to be a massive game to remake, but so massive it has to be split up three times? In what way are they making the remake that requires three totally separate entries?
I can see the appeal of exploring areas more and having a higher graphical fidelity, but I'd much rather just have the game remade to a reasonable graphical level with the same areas implemented in the same way. You can change the major bits of the game, but splitting it up is silly.
They're just trying to drag it out for more money, aren't they?
>tfw pre-release footage is better looking than the bullshot pre-downgrade XV
>tfw it's going to get downgraded to equally ridiculous levels
These consoles are pathetic.
Cloud will die instead of Aeris
Tifas tits will be shrunken even farther
3 maybe more games
You've already played it anyways
Who would be excited for this shit other than NeoFags?
>>333434473
>It was always going to be a massive game to remake
Except it isn't a massive game. It's just a regular jrpg. It's only 40 hours long. The only reason it was on 3 discs is because of FMV file size.
>>333434340
Except XIII was a huge hit in japland.
>>333434587
Those nips are fucked in the head though.
Should have bombed them harder.
>>333434340
I would suck liquid shit out of an Indian's asshole if someone put a FF7 sticker on it.
>>333434473
FF7 is a tiny game, even smaller than 4 and 6. They're going to pad the game out with optional content. Midgar will likely be fully explorable. The world map itself is probably going to be on the same kind of scale as XV, where you can seamlessly walk between cities.Zack's grave might be a landmark on the hills near midgar.
>>333434581
It's a massive game if you wish to open areas up more rather than have pre-rendered backgrounds. And if they want to make exploring the over-world similar to exploring in FFXV then it'd be an even more insane undertaking.
It's a big game as is, bigger if remade, and massive if remade in the style of FFXV. It still doesn't require three different entries just to make it.
>>333433871
>>333433953
Yea we just have to wait 2-3 more years to play the game right boys? I'm so hype :^)
anyone know who this qt is?
>>333434578
Oh Honey Bee Inn will be neutered as well
>>333434747
>it's a massive game if you make it into a completely different game full of unnecessary open empty space
Wow.
Will Nomura deliver?
>>333434578
I am. I'm very nostalgic for FF7, but at the same time I can tell how ff7 is a horrible game with zero challenge and fanfic grade writing that makes pc rpg scripts look professional. So, whatever it is, it's going to be better thsn the real ff7 and quite a bit more in line with how I remember it.
>>333434814
that's my gf so back the FUCK off
>>333434814
Skeleton-chan, she works for FROM Software
>>333434919
Yes, deliver a shit game.
>>333433034
I dropped it as soon as they said the combat is going to be action base like FF-XIII
>saying that
I'm pretty fucking sure it won't happen the way they want it to happen and this is all talk
>>333434919
>Wanted to kill Aeris or Tifa
>next answer
>Didnt add Tifa until after we decided to kill Aeris
>>333434443
Irony police, arrest this man.
>>333433816
FINAL FANTASY VII 3
FINISH THE FIGHT
>>333433583
Thank god if so. Midgar was the only good thing about the whole ordeal.
>>333434884
Yes, and? That's exactly my point. I'm not a fan of FFXV's giant open world of nothing either. But if they do FFVII in that style then it will also be massive. And seeing as how they've basically turned it into an action game they certainly are on the path to making it into a completely different game.
>>333433034
I hope this is true to be honest. They are going to need to add a lot to the final game if this is the case.
>>333433034
>saying that the team was using Final Fantasy XIII series, which comprised of a total of three games, as a model.
NO
NO GOD NO
WHY
WHY WOULD THIS HAPPEN WHAT DID WE DO
>we're gonna pad the shit out of it
thanks f@m
>>333433034
> with three full, 30+ hour JRPGs
WOOAAAHH A FULL 30 HOURS JRPG?
Are we fucking back to the snes days or what? Because the average length of a jrpg for the last 20 years is 50-60 hours. The last 30 hours games I played were Chrono Trigger and FFVI. Even FFVII was a good 60 hours game. Now with even more cinematics and voiced dialogue the game will actually be shorter than the 30 hours ffiv,v and vi games.
So yeah, those are not 3 full games when each one will be half as short as the original FF7. You are paying for 3 games, and getting 1.5 games. Scummy as fuck.
>people are complaining about the changes they're making to the game when the original was fucking terrible as well
Take what you can get guys, at least they're not remaking XIII
I'm gonna be waiting for the inevitable and a whole lot cheaper 'Compilation Edition' in which all of the parts have been blended into a seamless experience. Final Fantasy XV shall be more than enough until then.
>>333435187
Because XIII series somehow went on to recoup the costs, and became one of the higher grossing FF titles from what I recall. People keep buying the games, no matter what platform they're released on, and it helped that after the first game in the set, SE actually put some effort into fixing things.
>>333435393
Most JRPGs are only that long due to padding and 100% things. SE isn't going to sit there and make some bold claim about how long the game is for turbo-autists, when they're trying to just keep a realistic expectation for the common fans and media.
>>333435648
And FFVII will be padded with extra shit too. So we are talking about a 10 hours game probably when we account for that and voiced dialogue.
There no common fans. Each one of the 10m sales it get will be from turbo autists. Unless each game cost 30 bucks I dont see the appeal of getting 1/3 of the game for full price.
They are calling it full games but the truth is no jrpg in the last years was 30 hours long. That was a snes thing before voice acting. Im sure if you add cinematics and voice acting to short games such as FFVI, it will easily reach 45 hours.
And keep in mind Im talking about main stories, not side quests. With side quests FFVII can last easily 80 hours.
> the goal is to structure it more like Final Fantasy XIII than an episodic series."
>The development team are looking to structure it like FFXIII, with three full, 30+ hour JRPGs spun out of FFVII's original three discs.
As someone who doesn't give a rat's ass about this remake and is awaiting FF15 and KH3 this is a REALLY bad idea.
I played FF13 from start to end and the structure and pacing is exactly one of main problems with the game. The fact they want follow this structure should be a red flag to those who are interested in it
>>333435968
I loved FFXIII up until they went and ruined it by tossing us into an open bullshit world riddled with sidequests that you were forced to complete
>>333435187
Yeah, I don't get it either. I was really hoping for a full on multi-part game that added new locations and reused the same save data, but this seems like a gimmick. Who cares if I can fully explore Midgar if I can only do that in one part. This feels like a cop out.
>>333434958
she doesn't like nerds though
so she's mine
>>333433034
No that I give a damn besides the fact t that this is over hyped over rates trash, but why dobthey need to over complicate things?
Remaster the fucking game and keep mechanics and story verbatum.
Fucking a
>>333435393
>Because the average length of a jrpg for the last 20 years is 50-60 hours.
It's blatantly obvious that you're note even 20 years old yourself. I think the extent of your "retro" JRPG gaming is FFVII, and materia grinding aside, that's around 20 hours long.
>>333436081
You must be joking, the number one complaint for FF13 was that it was too linear with no side-quests, but it was the opposite that ruined it? Come on!
>>333434359
Which you could also do at the end of disk 2. In fact, locking you out of most sidequests until the end it just dumb as hell and I hate that Square love this convention.
>>333436385
Nope, not joking. I love linear, story-driven RPGs, and had a lot of fun with FFXIII until gran pulse. That place ruined it for me and I never even bothered finishing it.
I only found out last year that you can get Yuffie on side before you even get to Junon for the first time.
>>333436186
Bullshit, FFVII, FFVIII, IX without speed running and knowing where to go are 50-60 hours each.
FFX is 50 hours. FFXII is 60 hours.
FFXIII I dropped it at 40 hours and I was trying to go as fast as possible so I could skip it fast. I dont know how it was but cant be less than 50 hours
Type Zero I guess 30 hours, but then again its just a psp title and a spinoff.
The last 25-30 hours numbered FF games I played were IV, V and VI.
Keep in mind Im talking about main story, no side quests, no grinding and first time playrun.
>>333435187
Hey dipshit, 7 had three discs
>>333435004
That's literally retarded. How could you defend the original combat system.
>>333435968
They're just gonna be remaking the game disc by disc. FFXIII was just an example to make the kids understand.
>>333436952
>They're just gonna be remaking the game disc by disc
No they're not. They've made it clear that the story is getting changed
>>333435075
It's only natural that Nomura wanted to kill the inferior girl after he saw the perfection that is Tifa so she could shine even more out
>>333436831
FF7 first time for me was 27 hours, while FF8 took me a good 80 hours. There's also other jrpgs out there than FF. How long time a game takes YOU to beat is not really relevant to the point SE is trying to make
>>333436950
I love turn based battles, are you enjoying hold X to win fight?
>>333436831
FFI - 7 - 10 hours
FFII - 10 - 15 hours
FFIII - 20 hours
FFIV - 15 hours
FFV - 30 - 40 hours
FFVI - 20 - 25 hours
FFVII - 20 - 25 hours
FFVIII - 25 - 30 hours
FFIX - 25 - 30 hours
FFX - 30 - 35 hours
FFXII - 60 - 70 hours
Unless you're a sloth, you're remembering these games wrong. They're only long if you walk into a wall or run in circles grinding for hours on end.
>>333437062
Stop making shit up.
>>333437087
But that's not Yuffie
>>333436762
Wat.
I can't believe this game is 20 years old and there's no porn for it yet.
>>333437209
If you can't see how hypocritical that is I don't know what to tell you. The simple addition of positioning and movement allows the potential of shitloads more actual depth.
>>333437321
yuffie a shit
>>333437442
Tifa a shite
>>333437209
Because pressing X to win is so much more engaging, right?
>>333437317
Read the link in the OP. They are making story changes
>>333437290
Absolute horse shit
>>333437290
You're really under estimating VII here. FFX is pretty bang on though, as you have to go out of your way to do the end game in that.
>>333435968
Theres a difference there, vii already has a premade story, so the liberties they are taking with it his acxomodating the story to each part, they are also going to put more shit like expanding on the avalanche members biggs, wedge and jessie and probably other characters like the shinra, and i'm hpoing reeve as well, hes litrally one of the main characters, and lets not forget vincent and yuffie, they wont be mere side characters any more and have a more involved part in the story as well, theyll put more story content and more ahit in each town as well as in the world, to make each part like a full rpg
now speaking of how the parts will ne devided, i dont believe that part 1 ending at leaving midgar, i reckon itll end at the ship ride from junon to costa del sol, establishing sephiroth as the big bad, showing the nibelheim shit and having the first jenova fight as the last boss, part 2 is gonna end at the northern crater and show cloud getting fucked and the weapons awakening, with part 3 having the rest all the way to the end
this is going to be completely fucked. As if the "compilation" hasnt already raped VII enough, now they gotta go and ruin the original game too.
I hate modern Square.
>>333437542

>significant plot changes
Stopped reading there.
Fuck this remake
Fuck Square Enix
Fuck Nomura
I'm never giving these faggots another dime. I knew they were going to fuck this up and I'm right. Another bunch of morons who have never heard the phrase "if it aint broke dont fix it"
>>333437290
>FFIV - 15 hours
You're a fucking retard
>>333437290
Bullshit. FFX has a shit ton of voiced content. Unless you are skipping it the game is longer than that. Those are certainly not first time runs.
FFVII is marginally longer than FFVI. They cannot be both 20-25 hours. It seems you are "remembering" the last run you did on those games, not the first one.
>>333437542
Tifa isnt a tease
>>333433034
>Whereas with Final Fantasy VII Remake, we already have a preexisting story, so it wouldn't really make sense if that isn't encompassed in a multi-part series
This phrase makes no fucking sense.
"We have a story that everyone knows about so NOT dividing it as multi-part release would be wrong".
Kitase might have meant "since this is a preexisting story we will add new scenarios to greatly expand the original plot, so dividing it as a multi-part release might seem more justified", if it's that so then he should just fucking say that.
>>333437684
FFVII is broke as shit, son. There's no way they can make it HD without making major changes and additions.
>>333437290
VII is more like 50-60 hours on average if you're not going out of your way for chocobo breeding or the excess stuff outside of character subplots. Mostly because the game has a surprisingly sizable series of events.
Like the submarine mission and the Gelnika as well as the hunt for the City of the Ancients key if you don't know where it is by guide or previous knowledge, or the Huge Materia section of the game. The plot had a few major padding moments that only served to get in everyone's way.
If the devs follow XIII's model this sounds a lot like they'd basically focus on the meat and potatoes of the plot, and the padding would either just be in your face with no purpose or extremely trimmed, utterly tearing the fat off of everything. And i'm not sure if that's a good thing.
>Unreal Engine 4
There is literally no reason for this game not to come to PC. If they announce the other "later" platform as Xbone only I'll have an aneurysm.
>>333438015
It's the translation.
There was a thread about this yesterday.
>>333438312
And there will be a thread about it tomorrow.
>>333437290
>FFV - 30 - 40 hours
More like 25-30. My save file is at 28 hours and I went out of my way to grind AP.
>>333435080
let's be honest a Final Fantasy VII-2 would be a literal river of money
I'm fine with this. Seriously. I am not waiting 10 years for another FF game. Hell, I'll even pay full price for these games. Just get it to me sooner rather than later.
>>333434439
Wait... won't it just be expansion packs like an MMO? Everything will just be added on?
Are they really just going to alter your characters like that?
>>333433034
>In the latest issue of Game Informer, producer Yoshinori Kitase revealed the details, saying that the team was using Final Fantasy XIII series, which comprised of a total of three games, as a model.
So what? Is the rest the FF7 game sgonna be built off of left over assets like 13-2 and LR?
>>333434958
chen!
show some trigger discipline!
>>333433034
>full, 30+ hour JRPGs
Sounds kinda short to me. Then again I'm used to DQ8 an 9, which were like 70+ hours if you knew what you were doing. I'll wait for all 3 to be released together.
>>333433280
The old Kingdom Hearts 3 trick!
>>333435075
Oh shit! They're gonna kill off Tifa instead! Oh shiiiit
>>333438483
They'll probably have to retcon Crisis Core now that the person they based Genesis on has become a total fucking niggerfaggot. He's basically burned the Genesis reappearance bridge in both FFVII and any future games.
>>333438970
Sounds good to me.
>>333438591
I don't see how that's possible, considering FFVII only consists of unique areas. It's not often enemies were recycled either.
Also, there are so many WTF type enemies in the game that I doubt they'll keep even 10% of the original monsters beyond the mechs and bosses.
>>333438970
you make it sound like that's a bad thing
>>333433034
that doesn't make sense, the third disc is a fraction of the playtime of the first two
watch its going to be another hallway simulator entertainment wise.
>>333439141
Only in that we'll likely never ever get an HD version of Crisis Core outside of emulation.
>>333439057
I guess so.
>Also, there are so many WTF type enemies in the game that I doubt they'll keep even 10% of the original monsters beyond the mechs and bosses.
RIP Hellhouse and weird cannon enemy.
>people are actually still looking forward to this
>>333439154
It's not gonna be a disc each.
They're probably expanding the fuck out of the Midgar section to encompass an entire game, doing the rest of Disc 1 as the second game, and Discs 2 and 3 as the final release.
>>333439256
who fucking cares
>>333433713
With how much money they sank into development and how much it needs to sell for it to be profitable, they'd be out of their minds for not atleast seriously considering, it.
>>333439172

Fuck off spic
>>333433034
>The development team are looking to structure it like FFXIII, with three full, 30+ hour JRPGs spun out of FFVII's original three discs.
Ah, okay. That's better. I was afraid they would have done a Telltale-type bullshit. The original FFVII was about 40 hours of content minus faffing about, so three games with 30 hours of content's actually pretty gnarly.
>>333439256
Crisis Core sucked arse so who cares
>>333433713
>Didn't know Final Fantasy XV was finally coming out for the PC.
Tabata said specifically that after the console versions were done and released they would start looking at a higher end PC version.
So...thanks for beta testing it for us, I guess?I actually have a PS4, but the demo's performance did not impress me
>>333434145
You're saying it's ok because they're just gonna literally call each segment a "different game"
>>333439256
Crisis Core may've had a cool story outside of Genesis but the gameplay was easily button-mashing garbage. People love to strawman and think Kingdom Hearts is "press attack to win", but Crisis Core could essentially be conquered through liberal sword spam and dodge rolls.
Also FFVII:Re can use exactly what VII and Before Crisis used - claiming the story is from Cloud's perspective, so thus you don't need to see Genesis or his bullshit since only Zack directly knew about it.
>>333439537
No he didn't.
>>333435968
THIS how would a world map even work is it's locked behind multiple disk?

>>333439657
>Crisis Core may've had a cool story outside of Genesis
No, the rest of it was shit too. Only cool parts were Cloud and Sephiroth.
They even managed to fuck up making Aeris fun. How do you mess that up?

Honestly it was moreso the voice. Still way too 'pure waifu'. But she did screw around with Zack, like the whole, "If you can do that hop to your feet thing again like we first met, then that's cool. But if you fail, you gotta take me on a date."
Then Zack fucks up the first time, asks for a retry and does it then, and completely forgot about the whole date thing.

So much for that.
>>333440215
Well there was also the time where she made a flower cart with Zack's help, then they keep adding shit onto it to the point that it looked more like a fucking weapon. And then Aerith made a killing off of a stupid Shinra scientist buying it thinking it WAS a weapon.

>A: If we had plans for a PC release, then we’d want to release it as closely as possible to the console versions. However, since we didn’t have any plans for it, there won’t be one releasing closely to the PC version. When we develop and research in the DirectX 11 generation, all the work goes into the console version. After release, we plan to do some research on a PC version while considering higher specs.

This game is starting to sound a little too ambitions.
It will either be a massive success or flop hard, there is no more "It'll be good" or "OK" option anymore.

>>333433034
I've always felt that FFVII is pretty bland and not a game that I'd like to go back to. I have been very excited about FFXV, I think it looks wonderful. Am I wrong to take this as a sign that they are giving up on XV and just pushing it out to get it over with? Between the technical problems, the nearing release date and the fact that they are already working on the sequel (since VII is the next main installment as stated) while proclaiming that the VII will be multi-part but seemingly having no interest in making FFXV sequels I'm pretty worried
>>333440920
XV was announced in, what, 2006 or 2007? It''s really obvious they're tired of shoveling money into it so they want to make as much profit as they can through multimedia shit and finally be done with the damn thing.
Meanwhile the initial FF7 on PS3 tech demo was E3 of 2005, and the confirmation of the remake was E3 of 2015, two years before the 20 year anniversary in 1997, And the game's probably been in work for a couple years too. They probably want to bring their main attention to KH3 and FF7:Re now, yeah..
Holy shit, all I wanted was for them to remake Final Fantasy 7 with graphics and audio quality at current standards. Maybe add some new side content here and there. Shit, they didn't even need to add voice acting or anything.
What the fuck is even happening anymore?
I actually kind of like the idea but the only way for this to feasibly work is if they keep all installments on the exact same engine, basically porting over the same shit into new settings like the Zelda jump from OoT to MM.
If they had done this earlier they would have to make large graphical updates to remain competitive but with this generation that is pretty much redundant. Even with XIII they had to change things up as much as they could
Maybe this was Square's plan since they first thought of remaking FF7, they will be able to give us ridiculous amounts of content and it will sell like hotcakes.
My only problem is bonus content, what happens to your efforts outside of the main story upon moving on to the next chapter? Would it just be wiped each time around or is your data carried over and completionists are just OP as hell breaking the rest of the game.
>>333441334
>What the fuck is even happening anymore?
An epic remake
>>333441252
I'd wager they uses what was left of Verses for the Remake look at the explosion again after Cloud has his spasm
>>333441534
This doesn't sound epic, it sounds like it's going to be a fucking mess.

The cover feature reiterates Square Enix's statements that they're taking liberties with the story to modernize it.
"I, along with [Tetsuya] Nomura-san and [Kazushige] Nojima-san--who are involved with the remake--were also involved with the original Final Fantasy," Kitase said. "We were the people who created it, so in that sense, we don't think anything is untouchable. That isn't to say we're changing everything!"

There are very few of them, strangely enough, but there's a metric fuckton of worksafe pixiv art.
Aeris is just one of those popular characters that gets a lot of fanart but not nearly as much lewd art.
>>333437290

Why the fuck didn't Square pick FF 6 to remake? WTF. FF 7 was already 3D you could create a bad ass next gen game using FF 6 as a baseline. Fuck them.

XV alone took 10 years. Splitting this shit into 4 games with one for each disc will take ages.
>>333439626
Each segment being a "different game" is the worst they could do. It means no real continuity, starting from square one and not being able to go back to old areas until the game says so.
>>333446908
>XV alone took 10 years.
What is development hell? The game didn't enter full production until like 2010 or 2011 IIRC, and they couldn't fully back the project because they were using all their resources to fix XIV.
Saying XV took 10 years to make is like saying Duke Nukem Forever took 13 years to make. Not to mention that XV had its combat completely reworked just so Nomura could take his original combat design with him for the VII remake.

Uh, no it didn't. It looked exactly the same as the garbage in PD. The exact same animations. The same crap. The only difference is the fake placeholder HUD is now gone and you see the real one, which looks like a IPHONE UI

Check again, the combat in the Versus XIII demo looks way more Kingdom Hearts-esque, you can even control the other characters, and Prompto had third person shooting just like Barrett does in the remake footage
>>333448336
He's right though, if you take away the padding most FF games are fairly short. I don't know why people are complaining about the 30-40 hours thing when that's how long the average FF game takes. I beat all the weapons in VII except for Ruby, Bahamut in VIII, Ozma in IX, and maxed out my sphere grid and got all the sigils in X and I didn't even crack 100 hours in any of those games.
>>333433034

These fuckers deserve everything that happens to them. Holy shit how can a whole company be filled with so many idiots
>>333449054
Technically, the only reason people hate FFXIII is because of the linearity and Lightning's overexposure. The actual model for the game's release wasn't the issue.
>>333449054
>They decide to shoot themselves in the foot by taking after the most hated modern FFXIII
XIII series was shit, but they're right about them being "full sized" games even though XIII is missing like 20% of its content. They're just using XIII as a point of reference to how long the games will be
They will need to come up with a hell of a lot of padding, retconning and other shit to make each disk 30 hours
>>333449565
As long as there's more Jessie, I'm good.
>>333449565
>They will need to come up with a hell of a lot of padding, retconning and other shit to make each disk 30 hours
World map walking and random encounters ARE padding, anon.
>>333449565
I remember something about how they're expanding Midgar. Considering Midgar was one of the most memorable parts of the entire game and its entire runtime is comparable to Roxas' prologue in KH2, I wouldn't mind at least a little more so long as it doesn't go batshit insane.
Leaving Midgar should feel like an accomplishment and amazing - if not brief - relief after an intense chase sequence again, not just a footnote.
>>333434951
>I'm looking forward to a remake of a game I think is complete shit
Will we see Tifa at E3?
>>333449798

>>333451025

>>333437290
On a first playthrough anon. I believe I took maybe 40 hours for my first playthrough of VII. Doing all the sidequests and maybe trying to get to level cap will go much longer as well.
I don't know how anyone can not get stuck at least once with a FF game. Maybe not to the point of using a guide but I am not ashamed to admit I might have gotten stumped a few times.
>>333450947
idiots will shell out for it.
>>333451025
because the worried nerds think that if tifa's tits aren't quite right then the remake is ruined

>>333450947
Why are you literally incapable of reading? 30+ hours is more than a "full game".

>>333451461
>take old game
>chop it up and butcher it
>sell 10% as separate full games
>perfectly acceptable
no fuck you
>>333450442
Anon, it's padding. Most of the areas in VII are very linear and small, like that one fucking junkyard you traverse with Aeris.
What most people don't realize is that an area that takes 10 second to walk through in the original VII is probably going to be way more involved in the remake since they're taking the time to fully model the environments in-game. If you were to take VII and make the remake 1:1 with current gen technology and voice acting, it's automatically going to be way longer anyway. The game being 30-40 hours isn't what people should be questioning, what they should really be questioning is the post-game and how much is going to carry over to the sequels.
>>333451702
>>take old game
Oh my god you're retarded, kill yourself
I hope Aeris isn't too much like CC Aeris. Original Aeris was streetwise and spirited. I know she was younger in CC but they made it as if she was 10-15 years younger.
>>333444810
>Implying Jenova didn't succeed
>>333451420
Terrible example though, when you really think about it all four .hack games could've been on one disc if they didn't have dual audio. Doesn't help that CC2 are working on VII remake as well
>>333451906
Jenova's dead.
Sephy's the one in charge
>>333450585
The final boss of FF7R-3 will be Kadaj, Genesis and Sephiroth fused together.
Just look at the compilation. A bang average shooter, a corridor running button masher, and a pointless movie that was 100% fanservice and an excuse to sell merchandise with the new character designs. Squaresoft don't exist any more. It would be like trusting modern Rare to remake one of their back catalogue from the golden years.
>>333452137
I'm of the opinion that Jenova cells work a bit like the alien from The Thing, but with a sort of hive mind mechanic.
You could have some Jenova cells in you, but it wouldn't control you, unless you're around a large concentration of Jenova cells. That's why Sephiroth went apeshit once he was in the vicinity of the Jenova corpse.
I think that, after that point, the Jenova cells took him over.
>>333451313
It won't. There is zero chance. The only people who will think it will be are the ADHD ridden retards who like the FF7 Compilation. That's what this shitty remake will be like.

They'll definately have to stretch out each episode and pad it with new fanfiction-tier plot "improvements".
Shit is doa
>>333452465
>I'm of the opinion
Then you're in the wrong opinion because the whole point of Jenova's presence in the universe is a plot device.
Ever notice how Sephiroth can only control people that have Jenova cells from HIS body (I.E. "Sephiroth Clones" like Cloud and the Nibelheim survivors), but the average SOLDIER remains immune to it beyond a random mook that decided to dress up in a robe?
Sephiroth didn't fall under Jenova's control, he learned how to manipulate her cells himself.
Square confirmed themselves that the idea of Jenova being sentient by the time of FFVII is a red herring, and that Sephiroth is actually the one behind her appearances and actions.
I really fucking hope the third episode won't be Sephiroth Returns based off Advent Children. That was a dumb fucking movie. Fun action but dumb.
>>333453027
Full-size JRPG then=/=full-size JRPG now. If you were to take a game like FFXIII and put it in the style of VII then it would only be one disc long even though both games take about the same time to complete once over.
>>333433034
All I'm reading is, "There won't be a world map," since that obviously won't work with this structure.
That and the combat system just kill any interest I had in this.
>>333452251
i fucking hate that dog. HURR LOOK AT ME ACTING LIKE A FAGGOT GIVE ME ADDITION. I hope its fucking dead.
If they said they're doing it like FFXIII where each game is a full game, can only mean that each if the full games will be autoconclusive, or else they wouldn't be full lenght games, which only reinforces what I said the first time they said it was going to be split into parts: FFVII Remake is NOT going to be a remake of FFVII, but a remake of the entire FFVII Compliation, where each part of the original compilation(leaving out AC maybe?) will going to be a full lenght remake game.
Remember that regardless of their retardness and lack success, each part of the compilation is indeed canon, it'd be dumb to only remake FFVII without also planning on to remake each of the games the compilation is made of.
>>333453461
>I really fucking hope the third episode won't be Sephiroth Returns based off Advent Children. That was a dumb fucking movie. Fun action but dumb.
I would love that, actually. If anything, might be a chance to do it over and fix what it fucked up.Plus I kind of want to play as Cloud the cuhrazy sword/bike wizard.
>>333454394

are all 3 going to be 60 fucking dollars?
>>333454621
Who said they're starting with FFVII?
If my theory is correct, the entire compilation remake is under the "FFVII Remake" name, so whenever they're mentioning it, they're not directly saying they'll start with FFVII, as the name doesn't only reference the PS1 game.
You might say that they showed parts that only belog to FFVII, but assuming i'm right, they also wouldnt want for this to be unveiled too soon, so they would only show what people already think it is, a remake of only the PS1 FFVII, keeping the rest a "secret" for as long as they can.
>>333454783
Probably, I don't like the idea myself, and i hope i'm wrong, but i can't honestly think of how a full lenght game can be split into parts keeping each part a full lenght game...full lenght means it will have a start and an end on its own, and you can't magically split a single story with one start and one end into multiple ones each with their own start and end.

You could very easily end the first game at Aerith's death. It's a pretty poignant scene and a hard hitting conclusion to disc 1, and wouldn't be a bad conclusion to episode 1
Aerithsthhshhth won't die, and she'll use the Buster Sword instea dof Cloud since he'll be the one to die instead.
Also, Yuffie will have cow tits and Tifa will be flat chested.
ALmost forgot, they'll clearly say Aerithsthhshhth is a prostitute instead of hiding that behind the "flower girl".Barret will be voiced by Kanye West
>>333455924
I'd end the first game at Kalm, either before or after the flashback.
also they should try their best to capture that freeing feeling you get after you exit Midgar and enter the world map for the first time. I don't know how they're going to do it without a world map, but they should at least try.
>>333456271
>I don't know how they're going to do it without a world map
they never said there wouldn't be a world map
So basically this isn't Final Fantasy VII Remake.
It's Final Fantasy XVI with Final Fantasy VII characters.

Exactly, it would be a good end for the first episode, not the end of a full lenght game, that's my point.
Assuming it's episodic, whenever they decide to end episode 1, it'll be the end of an episode in whole full lenght story made out of multiple episodes, but they clearly said each game is going to be full lenght, hence each game can't end like an episode would.
Dumb paragon
The Lords Of The Rings, each of the 3 movie is an episode of a single full lenght story, and in fact each one doesn't really ends, as it's clear the story goes on, with all of the events occurring being left unfinished.
On the contrary, Harry Potter movies are indeed a single story, but each movie/book features its own story which starts and ends withing a single movie/book, so each of the books is a full lenght book.
So, with this paragon in mind, FFVII will going to be like HP, not like LOTR
>>333456598

>yfw they way overdramatize Aeris' death because of how iconic the scene has become
it's gonna be silly and you know it
>>333457080
With FFVII characters. And FFVII plot. That's a remake.
>>333457173
It's weird because when Aerith died in the PS1 original, the game jumped into a Jenova battle with only Aerith's theme playing, and even after killing the boss no one continued to talk the entire time as they mourned her.
They're probably either not going to shut up, i'm going to have to listen to Yuffie bawling in a high-pitched voice, and there'll be some cheesy post-mortem one-liners about how brave and great Aerith was and how much Cloud feels responsible for her death and shit.
>>333457173
The original scene was pretty overdramatic.
>My eyes are burning...
>My throat is dry...
>What about OUR sadness!
It's only not corny because it's a text box. With anything but purely theatrical voice acting, it's going to sound very silly.
>>333455924
>>333456271
i would end the first game at the ship to junon, it would encompass a good chunk of the game, and give plenty of freedom to expand on different locations, like midgar for example, it would also give the players the nibelheim flashback and establish sephiroth as the major threat and actually show who he is compared to just ending it at getting out of midgar for example, it would give us the midgar Zolom and fort condor, and for the final boss, nothing better than Jenova:birth and her theme
That sounds better than what I initially thought, now just to wait for thorough reviews a month after the first one comes out and then decide to throw my shekels at the gooks.
>>333457425
It was actually really well done. I still find the scene pretty touching. It didn't try to force you to feel anything. It just happened, Cloud reacted, and then boss battle. Then the scene where they laid her to rest was short and sweet.
Everyone felt like they lost their waifu. It was some good directing.
>>333457173so long as i can still make cloud do pelvic thrusts right before her death, all is well
>>333457397
Knowing Nomura and his penchent for western-style cinematography and direction, he'd probably just muffle or mute the characters's grieving voices under Aerith's theme during the scene, with Cloud looking dead inside while Yuffie bawling while wraps her arms around his neck.

>>333434043
I'm pretty sure the entire game could fit into a bluray disc, the deal here is that the game costs too much to make and needs too much time, so they'll sell it in chapters.
>>333437684
FFVII was far from perfect and doing a reinterpretation doesn't magically make the original game disappear.

It's pretty easy to do 4 in sub 20 hours. Hell the glitchless speedrun is like 4 hours.
fuck you guys. I hope the remake is so successful that they continue making games in the FFVII world.
I mean genesis just kinda flew off at the end of dirge of Cerberus, surely defeating him will reunite the mystery cr- I mean the FFVII cast.
OKAY EVERYBODY. WE HAVE TO FINALLY SETTEL THE QUESTION IF THE REMAKE WILL TURN OUT TO BE A BIG PILE OF DONKEY SHIT OR IF IT WILL BE SOLID GAME
LET'S ASK THE MAGICAL 8 BALL
>>333459398
The difference is FFVII was lego people back in the day, and FFVIIR seems to actually be pretty faithful, right down to Cloud's gaunt, skinny arms and Wedge's fat face.
I got goosebumps the second I saw Cloud take on his classic battle stance.
This is remake done right. Only issue is the episodic nature, but if they're sincere about the length, I'm cautiously optimistic.
>>333458317
Dude... The Departed is a remake to that shitty asian movie.
fucking kill yourself mate!!
>>333459876
So that's where Donut Drake went.

>>333459870
Will we get an Aeris DLC after she dies?
>>333437209

>>333459870will AERITH stay deader than the flintstones
>>333460291
SE confirmed for bring dirty jews
>>333460291
yes. during the game if you buy one of her flowers at the start of the game, you put it in her hand as she is laid to rest.
>>333433034
I'm honestly not even sure if they are trying to make it sound better or just seeing how far they can push people at this point.
>>333460339
SUCK IT AERITPHS FAGS
>>333460291
>>333460339
Nomura's so proud of the fact that he came up with the idea to kill Aeris, it makes him cum.
I sincerely doubt it.
>>333459870
will Cloud have his AC persona?
>>333457239
He's probably from the tiny minority that played FFVII mainly for the battles.
>>333460470
I think he's more proud that he came up with cloud to be honest.
he says he thinks of him like a son.
>>333460537
no. he is very much a dick from the start of the game.
>>333459870
Is Aeris best girl?
>>333460797
Yes indeed

>>333437684
it's ok
they don't need your money, one dumb merican less is not important. The game will be GOTY, even if you don't like it
>>333461125
I'm alright with it if it's more quality than quantity. Most RPGs these days have too much bloating/filler.

I'm all for nice thighs and big breasts, just not when you force it onto an already existing character.
And there needs to be balance. Not a fan of stupidly thick thighs or stupidly huge breasts that ruin the balance of the proportions.
>>333461512

>>333461125
>In an age where most RPGs are 60+ Plus hours this is actually really shitty
Final Fantasy games have usually been around 25-40 hours long if you play through them straight
>>333462649
The 8-ball is being very generous tonight.
>>333462751
If anything, Aerith dying both put a damper on things and gave her more power. It allowed Sephiroth to seal Holy and keep it from destroying Meteor, but when Holy failed due to the Meteor being too close in the end, Aerith got the Planet to attack it too.
If she'd survived, maybe Holy could've countered the Meteor long before it had the opportunity to get so close. But then that raises a whole new can of worms since that was the crux of the fucking plot.
>>333459870
Will there be H-scenes after the Golden Saucer dates?
We'll never be able to play it anyway.

It's a plot point that Holy might have wiped out humanity along with Meteor if it succeeded, so maybe if she doesn't die in your playthrough, Holy wipes out half of humanity and she's the one with the guilt complex instead of Cloud come AC.
>>333463298

>>333433132
If this is true you're a fucking retard. Why not just hold out until the game comes out? If you but the console later it will be cheaper and probably slimmer with more space. Knowing square enixs history it's very possible this game could be delayed a generation or not come out at all.
>>333462751
>>333463034
Aeris originally started casting Holy. Sephiroth kills her, trying to stop her.
Due to her ancients roots (i guess), she manages to continue casting Holy but thanks to sephiroth having the control of the promise land, Holy cant be fully casted.
They kill sephiroth but it was too late, Holy wasnt enough to stop meteor, but thanks to Aeris being dead, she gets the help of the lifestream, or the planet, whatever and manages to stop meteor.
IF aeris survives, she could have saved the planet anyways.
Aeris survives DLC isnt gonna exist, it makes no sense. I think the FFXII-ish way of presenting the FF7 remake is a good thing for "Aeris dies" factor, just because we are gonna enjoy her and her character without worrying about "should i use her or not now that i know she dies". Its like, we are safe to say that the first game we can play with whatever we want.
>>333435004
>they said the combat is going to be action based

>>333459870
Will they completely remove garbage sequences like Corel and Cosmo?
>>333464734
why?
>>333464834
theyll put elements of the short story maiden eho travels the planet, with Aerith meeting people from her past, the holy shit and sephiroth
>>333462791
>>333461125
My worry is the same as >>333461228
They might take 10-20 hours from the original and then stuff another 10 hours of cringy nip bullshit in there, complete with compilation characters and shitty fan-service.
Not to mention...
>catatonic cloud sequence is going to be 8 hours long
you know what ocurred to me
the motorball fight will probably all take place while cloud rides the bike and the rest of the team the car
>>333465780
That'd be pretty cool, actually.
It was fun in G-Bike.
>>333465780
It's sequences like this that I really want to see in the remake, really. Surely there's no way it could control worse than the original, unless they turn it into a fucking cutscene. Would be cool to be able to switch between Cloud slashing up grunts and the others firing at pursuers from the truck.I also want to see submarine stuff and snowboarding.

>>333447590
Environment models and textures aren't the only things that take up disc space. It's possible that the world itself will exist on all three releases, with other content being unique to each one. The original game actually worked that way. You could swap the discs out if you were in a spot where it wasn't loading, and you'd get FMVs off the old discs during story sequences, because much of the rest of the game was on all three discs. Though, with modern hardware, it would be easier to just install locations from all three discs to the HDD, and then make it so you can access the data from any of htem.

You know this is all going to be true.
>>333469005
This is not going to be true.
>>333468970
FFVII is roughly 40 hours too, and it includes a lot more talking scenes than FFX.
>>333468596
Really? I thought it was because they actually wanted to put a lot of effort and time into turning each tiny area from the original into a sprawling environment worth exploring while expanding on the plot and characters with extra story beats, banter, battle sequences, and areas to visit instead of aiming low like the fans seem to want them to, but you know what's best anon :^)I know people like to use XV as a reference, but the problem with XV is I'm predicting it's another MGSV where what we see in the trailers is actually the majority of the plot and it's not nearly as content-heavy as advertised...

Given how many changes, plot, mechanic, and otherwise, the game has gone through since it finally went into actual development, you can be damn sure XV is going to be as much of a mess as MGSV.
MAYBE a little more coherent, but it's going to disappoint just as badly as far as actual content goes.
>>333469254
It would just be a typical DBZ Budokai Tenkaichi fighter with long-winded cutscenes full of Cloud moping it up with none of the comic relief he had in the game.
>>333469287
You could skip dialogue in FFX, but in FFVII, you have parts where the dialog is tied to an animation, so it can't be skipped.

Where do you newfags keep getting the idea that Cloud is a comedic character. Cloud was not a comedic character himself in the slightest, he just got in a lot of awkward situations.

Well yea. It was on Ps2 They were capable of doing a lot more. That's not to say the content was better or even remotely on par. FFX was a big case of quantity over quality. Such a shit game.

Creepy-Aeris & ripped cloud are good.
>>333469984
There's nothing wrong with the main storyline itself in FFX, excluding the awkward parts.
FFX just doesn't feel like a Final Fantasy game with it's ridiculously grindy endgame.

I was kind of pissed that they cut the part where Cloud kicks the door and tells Reno to shut up in Complete. That really drove home how much he hated those guys.

>>333470321
Well there's that whole thing where he fucked Lucrecia and injected the fetus with Jenova cells to make Sephiroth. Hojo was more of a sexual deviant than a scientist, honestly. But I doubt the Remake is going to mention any of that and the whole "NanakixAeris rape experiment" will be ripped out, too.

Just as we speculated then. But where to cut off each? If Midgar is big enough and they didn't want to have to allocate any resources for an over world in the first game, then I could imagine it ending right after you get out of Midgar.
Second game could then go all the way up to Weapon's activation for a nice cliffhanger with everything going to shit.
Third game everything after that.
Only problem with that is that the most meat of the game was in that 'second part'. So unless they gate some of that stuff till the third game, or just decide to create a bunch of new stuff aside from the Weapon fights because there really wasn't that much in the third disc. You go find Cloud, fight Ultima, put Cloud's memory back together, Cloud feels better and does his speech and then Diamond shows up, Crater is now open. They would have to be a bit more before you actually get Cloud back for the third game to feel meaningful.

Where are you getting "significant" from? All Kitase said is that he feels that since they made the original, they might make some changes if they feel like they got something more interesting in mind.
Shit, I don't mind that at all. After my sixth playthrough last year, I could use a curveball or two.
>>333470169
Exactly
It was funny because Cloud was the straight man in ridiculous situations in a mad world
He said a couple of jokes along the way but that is not where the big chunk of Cloud's comedic moments come from

Not buying. I'll just watch some faggot play it on youtube, if even that

Fuck, just noticed he has pencil-legs, just like lightning.
Goddamn that's disgusting.
>>333451420
I hated this shit. I could always find the first 2 and the last one but the third one was forever missing from store shelves
I've never actually seen the end of .hack OR .hack//G.U. because of this
>>333471602
>Where are you getting "significant" from?
In the article where it says "plot may be changed significantly" you retard. Plus this is MODERN SquareEnix writing. I don't trust them to make anything other than hot shit, god help us if they take it upon themselves to actually alter the plot in some way.
>disc 3: cloud returns: final fantasy 7
>>333471602
So you don't mind them shitting all over the original plot and characters like they did in that shitty movie and the other spinoffs?
>>333471675
And I bet the remake won't even have that much. Especially if it's pandering to the Advent Children crowd.
>>333471776
That's the title of the clickbait article, not the actual quote.
>>333453912

>>333442325
It's beyond me why people want a remake of 7. The best part about the game is how goofy it is, it's simply not a game that could be released today and be received as well as it was originally. The detailed backgrounds mixed with the shitty low-poly character models, the hilarious Barrett censored rants, and the weird characters you meet along the way, are what make it fun to replay. Most of this will changed in the remake. Imagine an FF releasing today with a token black man like Barrett spouting Ebonics.
I understand the games need to stay fresh, but a part of me wishes they include the old turn based combat as an option, even though it will never happen.
>>333471776
Square-Enix went fucked up because of Enix, especially once Sakaguchi resigned from Squaresoft in shame due to The Spirits Within.
But the people directing the remake were part of the original game's development, not a bunch of fucks from Enix's side taking over.
>>333471792
>So you don't mind them shitting all over the original plot and characters like they did in that shitty movie and the other spinoffs?
Crisis Core actually had those moments, though.
...It was a shit game, but it was far less serious than you guys give it credit for.
And Advent Children is just psuedo-Mad Max in the FFVII Universe. Kind of hard to have fun in the goddamn semi-post-apocalypse.
>>333433034
>multiple, full-sized games
More like multiple, full-priced games.
>>333471785
>Disc 3 begins with Cloud and Tifa returning from the Lifestream
Holy shit. This is going to literally happen. Fuck. GO AWAY TABATA!
>>333435075
The thing you have to remember about that is that while Tifa was in the game, she wasn't a playable character. Aerith and Yuffie were the only playable girls, while Tifa was going to be a plot device only. So later they were thinking that they wanted to kill a character and so they thought that killing Tifa would be a good idea, because you don't play as her so there wasn't anything to worry about, but then they realized that it wouldn't have the same impact if you didn't have an investment in the character. So Aerith became the pick and because they didn't want to reduce the amount of girls in the party, they made Tifa playable.
Yup, kind of backwards logic when they could have instead made Tifa playable and the one that got killed.
>>333442325
Somehow I doubt any of the fans wanted it to be episodic, or for them to change the story and characters.
>>333471971
The project is being controlled by Nomura. It's pretty much guaranteed to be ruined.
>>333472135
>The project is being controlled by Nomura. It's pretty much guaranteed to be ruined.
That man is literally the only hppe the Remake has, considering the alternatives.
>>333471971
>the setting is doomed
Wish they'd made it into a game instead.
>>333472178
I wouldn't exactly call somebody else who is going to fuck it up "hope." The lesser of two evils can still be a great evil.
>>333434340
if final fantasy was only in japan the saga would die very early it was western that make final fantasy a huge franchise
>>333472135
He was the character designer for VII and some of the character's stories resulted in due part from his creations and conceptualizations of them.
Sure, the Kingdom Hearts series is batshit insane in plot, but I understand them and they're damn fun. Plus he was not responsible for Crisis Core, although he did direct Advent Children. I know why people are afraid he might fuck it up but he's also someone that would better understand the spirit of the original than anyone else still left at Square considering he fucking MADE Cloud Strife.
Plus everyone pisses and moans about AC Cloud taking over, but in recent years he's steadily been getting back to his more aloof jerk with a heart persona.
>>333472107
Tifa best girl.
>>333471976
Yes, and it was for the worse.
There are a few Cloud instigated humor moments. "I thought you were cut to be in SOLDIER?" Orthopedic underwear. "You looked like a bear wearing a marshmallow." "I'm going to dognap you!" It's dickery, but it's meant in fun. He even belly laughs after the first one.
>>333434587
Only thanks to the huge marketing campaign, and even then it still can't touch VII or X even in its homeland.
>>333472420
>Green boxes instead of default blue or rainbow
>2 characters with max health SOME HOW DEAD
>ON DIAMOND WEAPON
How do you fuck up this bad?
>>333472612
ever heard of solo runs, anon
>>333472315
Nomura is the only competent person left at square.
Kitase has no balls whatsoever and WILL cut anything offensive.
Nojima is an absolute madman.
Toriyama WILL find a way to include his waifu.
Tabata can't figure out how the fuck he wants to make anything and will shit the bed.
I'm not kidding when I say Nomura is the only one with the vision, drive, and love for FFVII to actually do a good job with the remake.
>>333472415
>although he did direct Advent Children.
He directed the cinematography and action sequences in Advent Children. Remember, at the beginning, all Nomura wanted to make was a short film depicting post FFVII Cloud fighting Kadaj and meeting a woman resembling Aerith in the church, who claims to have a message for him. It was Kitase that insisted on it being a feature length film and Nojima that added the angst angle. You can actually feel the exact moment in Nomura where Nomura says "Are you guys done? Can I make Cloud bisect a Bahamut now? Please?"
>>333472415
All Nomura did was the battle choreography anyway. You can blame Kitase and especially Nojima for plot and script changes. Nojima has also been hard at work ruining X's plot too.
>>333472760
>You can blame Kitase and especially Nojima for plot and script changes.
Shit, Kitase is the producer and Nojima the scenario designer for the remake. That's not good. Good to know the specifics behind things though.
>>333472739
>Nomura is the only competent person left at square.
>Kingdom Hearts is a thing
>competent
He hasn't done something great since FF7 and I am convinced that was a fluke.
>>333472883
Our best hope is that Nomura can slap their shit if they try to change too much of the plot and characters.
>>333472760
>ruining X's plot too
X's plot was shit from the start. Don't try to put all that on him.
>>333472919
Hate KH all you wantlord knows I think it's stupidbut it IS a solid, well developed game, especially compared to the Compilation titles and recent FFs like XIII.
>>333472997
How was it shit? Could you not follow it as easily as everyone else? Assuming you even played it in the first place.
>>333473009
Besides certain circumstances I think KH3 has basically overtaken hype for XV and, due to negative factors involving the remake, even VII-R. It's ridiculously insane how popular and beloved Kingdom Hearts is no matter how many contrarians try to act like it's complete garbage, and Nomura's had to fight stupidity from Disney all the way through.
>>333464723
You're assuming the poster had a PC that could play FFVII:R in the first place.
If he didn't, it could easily cost more than a PS4 costs.
>>333472739
I knew everything was going to be okay the second I saw Biggs, Wedge, and Jessie.
Nomura knows EXACTLY what the fuck he's doing.
>>333467339
> it's not a full free-roaming world map
The only thing that really stands out in the overworld is weapons.
Other than that it's the same linear experience but going through flat empty world.
>>333473383
Those were designed by a guido though.
>>333472919
>le KH is bad meme
Stop.
>He hasn't done something great since FF7 and I am convinced that was a fluke.
You really are clueless / full of memes.
>>333433034
>but the goal is to structure it more like Final Fantasy XIII than an episodic series
WHY DID YOU EVEN BOTHER MAKING THIS THEN!?
NOBODY FUCKING WANTS THAT
>>333473583
I want that
>>333473583
You do realise that it doesn't mean "literally XIII" but one story in a trilogy form, right?
Like Lord of the Rings for example.
>>333473583
Fuck you I want that.
>>333473583
If they're sincere about the length, I am totally down for that.I just can't take another heartbreak like MGSV again, so if that means they have to split it up into three games to meet their goals, so be it.
>>333473728
Enjoy your fucking George Lucasing of FF7 shithole.
I'm sure it'll be a horrible abortion of a game.
>>333474038
Stop being dumb.
