          I was deep into the internet by 1998 and I never saw anyone hating on ff7 at the time. It's only in recent years that I have seen screenshots of this hate and it was all from proto-/v/irgins on usenet and shit like that. Contrarians have always existed and they have always been confined to their cucktrarian sheds.

    I still remember the smell of my cousin's room when we first played it and watched that opening scene. PS1 and cutscenes were new to us so we were really blown away.

    Praystation was the biggest console at the time
    Final Fantasy was a major IP and it was marketed to hell and back
    First game to really lean into major cinematic setpieces and pull it off
    Mix all of that together with the 90's kid generation's fervent, cult like worship of anything from the era and you have FF7

    Consistent FF quality writing combined with revolutionary graphical advancements. I pity homosexuals that missed the 3d transition era. It might look like ass now but it blew my 30yo boomer mind

    Final Fantasy VII was called Baby's First JRPG for a reason. Sometimes I forget that I'm browsing a website full of kids who weren't born when VII released.

    People might say generic this and that because they are clueless brainlets but FF7 is one of the most unique Rpg's ever made with incredibly iconic music, settings and characters.
    The hipsters might cry and say: buh muh FF6! Yes is good but FF7 is just one of the best games ever made Black person. No amount of crying hipsters or self-fellating game journos will change that. They always want to pretend like if FF6, 9 or 12 are THE FF games but they are just butthurt contrarian gaygets that should get cancer and die a very painful death... Fricking neckbeards pieces of shit.
    On a side note: don't expect to understand shit by playing the remake though. They already ruined it.

      FFVI feels like a prototype for FFVII. There are a lot of similarities and basically everything VI does is done better in VII, outside of the ballsy twist and gameplay structure change halfway through VI. I've always considered the VI fanboyism to be contrarianism.

    When this game first came out it was being marketed solely by how graphically advanced it looked (in cutscenes) and how cinematic the story was. A lot of people who had never played an RPG before bought this game due to the marketing campaign. It was their first exposure to the idea that a game could be story focused or have a large world to explore. RPG fans are used to these things but to the new demographic it felt like FF7 had invented these aspects. It sticks in their minds even if they went on to play other RPGs because it was a first for them.
