What is the best way to play through Final Fantasy VII?

What is the best way to play through Final Fantasy VII? I have never played through a 3D Final Fantasy game other than XIV but I have played I-VI.

          Just looked it up and honestly it sounds pretty decent even though I only play nip games in niponese. Think they did the best job on the female characters.

      LOL, emulate it and play on a crt if you can. ps1 games need load screen removers badly.

      This but if that's unattainable, then PC with some fixes that make it closer to the PS1 original.

    Steam + 7th Heaven Mod Manager. I'd recommend playing vanilla your first time but you can still use 7th Heaven's game driver for QoL improvements like borderless windowed mode and xinput support.

    Be sure to download the FFNx FF7Music mod though because the PC port has a shitty gimped soundtrack.

      Is there any mod that fixes the music sync for Cloud's backstory?

      What is this? Do you just launch the game through the mod manager?

    Retroarch + Beetle PSX core (software renderer) 1x resolution with integer scaling and a CRT+NTSC shader on a 1440p or 4K monitor

    Don't play this game without a CRT shader or on a real CRT it's awful otherwise

        lolwut? even back in my shitty 140p CRT TV back in the 90s, it was obvious as hell what was a 3d model u can interact with, and what was a non intractable prerenderd background.

      Why do CRT shaders have that weird glowiness? I use real CRT's and white phosphors don't blend into the phosphors around them at all

      Open the screenshots in a new tab and click once to view unscaled

      The church looks like a work of art with CRT shader and absolute shit without it

      CRTs did not look like this.

    Just emulate it, no mods. If you do use the PC version make sure it has the original PS1 music (idk if they fixed it or not).

    Not for retranslation, but for the sheer amount of bugfixes bundled.

    Just play the Steam version, set it to run at 800x600 or 1024x768 if you don't want the characters to look too high res next to the blurry backgrounds. Make sure to go into your GPU driver settings and set resolution scaling to fit and not stretch. Don't fall for the muh emulation CRT filter clown.
