This kills all my hype. I'll probably not gonna buy Rebirth anymore and just pretend like this remake don't exist. Because its existence really bothers me. Everyone involved ruining FF7 like this should experience divine retribution.
This part confuses me, where during the story is even this? It must be somewhere after the gang have left Midgar. But why's Aerith on the bad? Or is that Aerith's adopted mom?
You will dislike this game a lot if you are thinking like that.
I honestly don't care about the story anymore. Just curious. Anyone else think Cid's a bit mellowed out? Him offering help to Aerith seems a bit out of place.
I think he might be that way because of whatever happens in the game that prompts him to say something like that. I don't think he's nice to Aerith or women specifically, I'm sure. Or maybe now he's just ruined, which would also make sense.
Wouldn't that put it way later in the game? We saw the scene at the City of the ancient. I thought the game was suppose to end there? Based on the interviews they released.
The part that confuses me is that every single girl in this world was wet for Zack, by having him around Cloud becomes an unironic cuck from a Terasu MC doujin.
Alternate timeline. This is after Zack gets back to Midgar and finds Biggs alive with Barret, Tifa, Jessie and Wedge dead. That's why you see comatose Cloud and comatose Aerith
man i haven't even gotten to disk 2 in FF7 yet and with most of the story unspoiled i'm seeing all sorts of pseudo spoilers to this ""remake"" that make me go
"why the frick should i even bother finishing any of these games?"
this story is moronic, that said i wanna hand hold marlene
>Celes being beaten up by male soldiers from the empire
Speaking of, Aerith should also get beaten up by Cloud in the temple of the ancients
Wonder if they'll keep it
>trailer of random wank >that scene with Barret and Dyne
Apart from all the homosexual shit, this was honestly the best part of the trailer. Dyne one of the best short-lived characters in the game who really puts into perspective how fricked up Barret actually is but grits his teeth about life and still pushes forward.
that would... be really fricking stupid. It's a defining point in the story of understanding who Barret is and why he is like he is.
If anything with this scene changes, he's just generic le funny black man who swears. Even with the meme ghosts at least the main characters still hit their story beats properly. Even if Aerith has essentially ESP about what's going on, you could even bullshit and say she had that in the original game too.
I honestly prefer the ps1 version. I just dislike how sharp the models are. It just looked weird when it is overlayed on top of the blurry/touched up background.
all the modern ports of it have some qol shit like speed up
probably the steam version has that
there's not too many differences like you have for the rereleases of the classics
Steam version running at 800x600 or 1024x768, with this mod for better music https://www.nexusmods.com/finalfantasy7/mods/38?tab=description. There was a mod for slightly more detailed chibi models that adds some texture and stuff that I think was compatible with the Steam version as well, maybe look into that if you want. There's some huge HD overhaul mods around that add upscaled backgrounds and shit, some people like them but for me the telltale smudges of AI upscaling look worse than just running the game in ye olde screen resolutions, also they all require downgrading the game to the old 90s release which loses you some things like better framerate, and stability left something to be desired in my experience.
I never thought of Cid as a "misogynist". He was rough with Shera but that's mostly because she took his dream away. But he was just normal with other females. Still, he was never the type that would offer help to someone like that. Especially this early into his involvement with the crew. He told Cloud and co to frick off until Shinra came by and demanded his plane. That is when he decided to "help" Cloud. Even then, throughout the story there's a bit of a distance between him and the crew. He was even surprised he was nominated to lead the party when Cloud went limp.
*shrugs* Beats me. That mindbroken Cloud could be the one that'll travel to the northern crater as part of the other numbers. When Cloud saw him, that'll break his mind and prompted him to give the Black materia to Seph. Maybe, I don't know man.
It's obviously a cig. In one of his limit break he lit up a dynamite using it. Ever since Japan's tight clamp down on cigs, it's hard to show cigs in any medium over there.
I hate vapers even more to be honest. I don't mind the "cig addict recover" peeps. It's the zooms/milennials that picked that shit hobby up that pisses me off. Like frick sakes, at that point just pick up a cig you gays.
>where inexplicably he survives.
Never played Royal, so I had no idea they changed the game that much. The original FF15 ending was probably the only good thing about it and they still went and ruined that too. lmao
The fact that it's PS5 exclusive at first, 3 years into its lifespan, while Remake released on PS4 nearly 7 years into its run, this alone will ensure it sells worse.
the story of XV is told across 4 trailers, 5 DLCs (one cancelled), 3 books, two stage plays, and the game itself, very few of which actually agree with one another on basic concepts
XIII had some ideas, mostly bad ones, but ideas
XV should just be completely forgotten
Reminder that the VII Remake was great and actually fixed problems with the original and you buttholes are just looking at the original through rose-coloured glasses: https://www-finalfantasywhatever-com.translate.goog/2020/04/final-fantasy-vii-remake-review.html?_x_tr_sl=ru&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en&_x_tr_sch=http
The whispers don’t ruin the entire game, at most they are just a heavy handed middle finger to nostalgia shills. Read “Final Fantasy? Whatever’s” review.

That makes no sense, in the original, Midgar was only elevated to fifty feet, it was three hundred feet in the Remake, which is more realistic.

And even if you disregard Wedge, what is Aerith’s excuse for not warning everyone about how the plate could fall and get them to evacuate? Stop looking at the original through rose-coloured glasses, though IX is even worse.
>So?
So how is it a middle finger to nostalgia shills when the ghosts completely ignore a character that was never in the original?

So? It gives SOLDIER more of a presence, u like the original which kept hyping up SOLDIER despite it only amount to random encounters that most players don’t even realize they might have fought some already.

>So?
the whole point of equating the ghosts to "nostalgia shills" is that both of them want things to be exactly the same, which Roche is not.
I more meant that the entire game was just midgar and a few mechanical ramifications for being just in the tutorial area.
Surprisingly the combat was the best part which was the thing I was sure squeenix would frick up the most with their weird obsession with reinventing the wheel every 5 minutes
XVI had different gameplay and it was fine: https://www-finalfantasywhatever-com.translate.goog/2023/06/final-fantasy-xvi-review.html?_x_tr_sl=ru&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en&_x_tr_sch=http
It was fine yea. The gameplay was never not fun but it was weird to not have any sort of party especially when they even had a status screen for torgal
Not like rotating casts are new, people were dropping every half hour in 2 and 4, could have done something with that.
>won't return in any form
they're returning >you're a purist who wanted a 1:1 remake
square-enix themselves tried to advertise it as being an actual remake because they were seemingly unaware of the actual meaning of Remake the writers had for it >you're getting a real remake with gacha
for frick's sake anyone who promotes gacha as anything legitimate is a panhandling wienersucker with no life beyond a job making expendable income they can piss away at moronic bullshit, all gacha is bad >the original game is shit
meh. it's nostalgia bias, it's a pretty middling game by series standards, but people put it on a godlike pedestal. still doesn't excuse how moronic the "remake" is
Or maybe you just have a petty vendetta against Nomura. Reminder that FFIX sucked: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/14012757/1/Everything-Wrong-with-Final-Fantasy-IX
Maybe zack coming over made a few characters from crisis core come. she seemed to be wearing the dress she worse before the jacket like in crisis core. but again you wouldnt wear it in bed also does her hair look weird?
There should be 2 Clouds, Aeriths, Tiffas, Barrets and Reds too. Since they physically went from 1 world to the other after fighting the time janny kings.
this shit is an insult to the original
Nah, only an insult to you like the little b***h you are
Zoom Zoom
Someone's mad he couldn't deliver pizzas on the upper crusts of Midgar.
No it's only an insult to a baby boy like you.

kino, we cant stop winning Zackbros
zack? more like z-ACK
I'm a Tifa man but I will pick this because frick Zack
Cloud and Tifa did the same thing like 3 times during Remake and one of them was Cloud straight up hugging Tifa to comfort her

Could make for great reaction images
You will dislike this game a lot if you are thinking like that.
its the rest of disk 1 after midgar + Zack saving Aeris judging by the marlene conversation
Wouldn't that put it way later in the game? We saw the scene at the City of the ancient. I thought the game was suppose to end there? Based on the interviews they released.
The part that confuses me is that every single girl in this world was wet for Zack, by having him around Cloud becomes an unironic cuck from a Terasu MC doujin.
Tifa is and forever will be Cloud gang
Cloud has always been a replacement and he only ever develops a self at the very end of the story, with Zack around Cloud is only grunt #5.
Alternate timeline. This is after Zack gets back to Midgar and finds Biggs alive with Barret, Tifa, Jessie and Wedge dead. That's why you see comatose Cloud and comatose Aerith
>Zack and Biggs party
Literally who asked for this
Will your tune change if they add in Cissnei to round out the party?
zack probably a fair few people
>Marlene spoils to Zack that Aerith is going to die so he can save it
FRICK OFF
>he thinks Aerith will die
It's obviously Cloud. There's a reason why there are two Clouds in this Remake.
Aerith dies and Cloud sacrifices himself to fight Sephiroth leaving Zack alive with the others.
Schizo cloud will kill aerith
Wheelchair Cloud when??
Yep. Devs have said it's going to lead to AC still and Tifa is alive there and Aerith is dead
>doubting Nomura kino
Pedophiles get the wall
Are we sure Aerith is going to die and not Tifa?

Okay I'm going to actually finish the original game
Is there any best known place to play it? I have it on steam and a ps1 emulator

WHERE'S MY GOD DAMN TEA YOU FRICKING b***h prostitute?!?!?!?
If that line isnt in the game I wont buy.
That’s not the exact line.
I never thought of Cid as a "misogynist". He was rough with Shera but that's mostly because she took his dream away. But he was just normal with other females.

Zack bros, I'm so fricking happy. Our guy will finally get some justice.
He’ll finally get that date with Aqua
*shrugs* Beats me. That mindbroken Cloud could be the one that'll travel to the northern crater as part of the other numbers. When Cloud saw him, that'll break his mind and prompted him to give the Black materia to Seph. Maybe, I don't know man.
>no cig
its fricking over
>32 years old

Did he ever even have a cigarette, or was that just a toothpick?
A cigarette, iirc he uses to lit up some dynamite in one of his limit breaks
It's obviously a cig. In one of his limit break he lit up a dynamite using it. Ever since Japan's tight clamp down on cigs, it's hard to show cigs in any medium over there.

Cid only hated Shera and for a good reason and then a relationship was formed around those unique circumstances.
I know, still, he's not exactly the type that'd offer help to someone like that. He was a bit standoff-ish.
>Cid only [headcanon]

Lol reminder that there was no FF9 remake despite people hyping that up
They literally never announced a new FF during VGA. Don't know why people expect they'll show it here
FF9 has been around for over two decades, a remake isn't exactly earth shattering news especially since it got "leaked" like 3 years ago
