      Two discs didn't ruin the game. It improved it by making less to download. You used to be able to buy a game, put it in the console, and just play it without any bullshit. And multi-disc games used to be normal.

      What ruined it was a fricking racist black b***h who runs a consulting firm that believes it MUST frick up everything everyone likes while taking no responsibility for the losses.

          So? There's a difference between established charaters, and deliberately making something more black to make a white-hating CEO of Sweet Baby happy.

          Shills always do this. Pretend it's about whites and then subtly turn it political.

          You're dealing with an entire race that refuses to dive into its own lore, history, and culture, because straw huts, straw skirts, and lip plugs embarrass them against the accomplishments of everyone else. And so they "solve it' by re-writing everyone else's history, culture, and everything so they can claim it.

          And people like Kim Belair of Sweet Baby are right at the heart of that effort.

        I wasn't going to buy it until I played the demo. It treats the opening bombing sequence with at least a little bit of respect. Then the demo ends. Where the game picks up after that, the time jannies and Sephiroth show up immediately. I'm never buying another mainline Final Fantasy game ever again after this. Things like Strangers of Paradise are okay and can have my money.

          chapter 2 of Remake is so fricking moronic and I can't believe so many people were okay with it.
          first you get an overly long, slow walking segment surrounded by flames just so sephiroth can give a gay smile to Cloud.

          then Cloud's first meeting with Aerith is totally ruined by the jannies awkwardly pulling her away from him.

            SEPHIROTH IS EVERYWHERE! THERE IS NO PART OF THE GAME WITHOUT AMPLE SUPPLY OF SEPHIROTH! They just don't get it at all. NOT constantly seeing him while chasing essentially a shadow was a huge part of the story.

            Plus the multiverse shit. That fricks up the next part to no end because they can go with any scenario they want. There's no plot commitment because of it.

        The combat change just made it boring flashy bullshit and the story changes took something really weird and memorable and turned it into kingdom hearts where all the characters just stand around literally just saying shit, they just say shit. They don't even know what the frick is going on themselves. It's so fricking bizarre there's gotta be a term for it, where the characters themselves have lost the fricking plot and everyone just stands around, walking from place to place, waiting for shit to happen, then when it does they react with shock and then it starts again.

        If you'd never played FF7 before would you even know what the frick was going on? Would you even care?

                He was talking about FF, FF is now an AA tier franchise see

                It'll hit 3m with PC release but an AAA game is expected to sell 7-10mil+. Some other random games for comparison
                >Nier Automata - 7.5 million
                >RE2 Remake - 14 million

                >Code Vein - 3 million
                >Final Fantasy XVI - 3 million
                Final Fantasy is now a Nioh/Code Vein tier franchise and even then it's carried by decades of nostalgia and character designs. I'm sure someone will say its disingenuous to compare it to Nioh/Code Vein given how long they've been out but this is Final Fantasy we're talking about and 7 of all things, the comparison shouldn't even be possible and let's not pretend it's going to reach Capcom/Fromsoft numbers even over time. They're lucky I'm a Yuffiegay or else I wouldn't have even bothered buying it myself

              Black person who cares if they make a profit or not the Sales speak for popularity among the base you have even if it's small.
              It's more impressive to sell 10 million copies having 50 million users than sell 10 million having 140 million users. I don't care which one makes more profits because it doesn't affect me. The reality is that Nintendo killed all hype for Mario games outside smash and cart which are basic b***h games with Mario skin not actual Mario experience.

              half of those gays probably bought it on epic too, I'm not giving them a cent until they bring over all 3 parts. what is even the point of buying this game when we may not ever see it? It's under a cloud of exclusivity deals. plus they wanted 70 fricking dollars for it and all of their sales are still 35 bucks. wayyy too expensive for hand me downs. It should have been released on steam for 35 dollars but they can't justify it because their exclusivity deals didn't pull them over the line so now they just keep holding out until maybe they'll make their money back. It's pathetic. they could have solved this by not doing exclusivity deals again but that was the first thing they announced about the 2nd game. No thanks.

      Square doesn't know how to make good games anymore, they've become an AA company that can't innovate and all their competitors have overtaken them. The only thing keeping them afloat is XIV but all that siphoning of money and talent to the rest of the company is having a noticable negative effect on that too to the point where despite being the biggest launch for an expansion it was a flop by the end of it. The next expansion will certainly be less successful on launch

      I think the biggest problem is they made the bizarre choice to make the FFVII Remake a trilogy. Surely someone realized that you can really only blow the "MODERN REMAKE OF A CLASSIC GAME" wad once. And that was with the first game. After that, what do you have? Sure, it's the continuation of the first game, which was popular, and this one reviewed even higher. But the luster of the idea of a FFVII remake is gone. It's been years since the first one even came out, and even more years, twice as many perhaps?, since it was first revealed. "FFVII has a remake" is just a thing now, there's no real appeal to it.

      You know how a big videogame psychology thing is avoiding "down time?" That is, preventing there from being moments where the player has the chance to stop playing, and thus may never start again? Splitting up the remake is basically just that on a massive scale: even people who played the entirety of Remake have had years to lose interest in continuing. Especially continuing at $70 dollars or even just for the sheer amount of time a big open world game requires. Even if they really liked the first game and wanted more then, there's no guarantee they do now.

      And now they're going to spend another four years and however many millions doing it again. Good luck.

        And it's a damn shame because I'm convinced that a straight-up 2-part Remake (I can accept VII being "too big" for modern hardware, first Part could end at Forgotten Capital) then it would have been a massive success like the RE2&4 remakes were.
        As it stands, many who were eagerly awaiting VII remake were left disapointed, newcommers who had never played VII but wanted to experience it with modern graphics were left with 1/5th of the orriginal and withthe story gutted by time ghosts. So the only people left to buy Rebirth are just the "hardcore" fans of VII

          That made sense back when we were using CDs, but these days everything is digital. I can accept VII being "too big" for modern developers, but it is nowhere near too big for modern hardware. We no longer have a limit on space, and it doesn't make any sense to begin with since consoles are shit and can't real 4K, so no point in giving them bigger textures.

    This project is the worst monkey's paw I have ever experienced. Even in the future the hatred in my heart will probably never subside.

      This. I saw the PS3 tech demo and thought we were back, but now I just want it to be over. SE will never be getting my money again as long as I live.

      Agree. I am truly horrified at what ruinous shit this trash has become.

      Good. I hope you spend the rest of your life seething and being miserable.

    The disappointment when it comes to things like this is always twofold. First because the thing itself was underwhelming and second because it's very expensive existence all but guarantees that the kind of remake (or adaption) I wanted will never happen. In many such cases this is the one chance it got. And now its gone.

    The best could do at this point is shit out some low quality phone game, but that would be missing the point once again.

    The fact that these threads are adjacent to each other is killing me with laughter!

    Even I had a feeling Super Chadrio RPG would do better than FF7 Rebortion.

    Final Fantasy has not given anybody any reasons to care about Final Fantasy in almost 25 years.

    TLDR: report and ignore.

    Reminder that JeremyBarryEric is a /misc/soijakesque spammer who spams many boards, with racebait, blacked on Ganker and cuckshit in gacha threads and tries to start wars between fanbases (e.g. frieren/dungeon meshi, shonen series like chainsawman, console wars, final fantasy) and enrage men and divide them into different categories (e.g. yuri vs straight, zoomer vs millennial) and start tribal wars, and make these men politically charged and ruin their online space.
    They'll reply to their own posts up to 50 times or more. Most may be AI posts. They'll falseflag as either side and use multiple personas (including fake ESLposting). They've been at it for 10+ years cycling and recycling through series and franchises. They have a discord (likely Rugga's) where they run these operations. Mods through silence have given tacit approval. They use terms like "meds" "take meds" "schizo" "ohnononono" "sisters" etc to cause psychological damage.

    Report and ignore.
    But also, note that they flee the thread upon being noticed, so bumping to spread awareness is also an option.

      My friend Barry might be a little throwed off, but he has been objectively correct about Shitsteen and Stillbirth being sweetbabyslop mcfailflops.
