>A PS1 Final Fantasy has so much more content than a PS4 Final Fantasy that they have to cut it up into 3 parts and spend probably 5+ years remaking it in HD
Absolutely despicable and sad. How can anyone be excited for this, how can anyone be seriously entertaining giving Square Enix money for this?

They're flat out admitting "yeah for the past 15+ years we've been gradually putting drastically less and less actual content in our games and spending that money on marketing and pretty graphics". If you defend this fucking remake, kill yourself.

Well the reason for the episodic release, other than more money, is that they want to not only recreate EVERYTHING from the original game but they also want to add a lot more content. So I am fine with the fact that it may be a trilogy.

That picture has more detail than the entirety of FF7

Oh yes, because Dirge of Cerberus, Advent Children and Crisis Core were sooooo good weren't they?

They're just trying to pad out a trilogy to justify $180 for a FF7 remake.

And none of the soul

>soul
There's this word again

The HD realistic anime faces look jank as hell

You already made this thread before

>>A PS1 Final Fantasy has so much more content than a PS4 Final Fantasy
Not really, it's just that now being a graphicwhore is more time consuming and requires a lot more data than before.
FFVII had the same problem for its time, hence the multiple discs, but graphicwhoring back then didn't require as much time as it does today.

It has nothing to do with actual hard content (which FF never had), but you FF nostalgiafaggots like to pretend otherwise for the sake of bitching and living in your own delusions.

I'll make it as many times as I fucking like faggot

That's because video games are more expensive to make now brainlet

It takes longer, yes, but their team sizes increased accordingly. They've already said there's too much content for them to fit it on one game.

This all points to them being gigantic jews who've been pumping out trash games for the past decade and a half with less content than games they made 20 years ago. If FFXV had just as much content as FF7 how come they could fit FFXV on one disc?

And they sell more so it balances out you corporate shill.

They're only as expensive to make as how hard they decide to chase stupidly expensive graphics you fucking child.

They don't care. They want their fix at all costs. Addicts have no standards. Once you realize most gamers are literal addicts, all the stuff they let devs get away with makes sense. All the defense forces start making sense. They think you're truing to take away their drug.

They're making record profits WITHOUT mtxs. The mtx and dlc are extra sugar. Almost every single one of the biggest games this gen are single player and have no mtxs.

thats not because of them spending pretty graphics and marketing, well, the former comes into play little bit but actually what square is saying is right ---- old games, especially JRPGs, you could have more broader locations, more detailed maps, more varied environments due to the fact that you just need to make it with pre-rendering maps and fields. you dont need to make it with full 3D models unlike in these days. if you make FF7 remake as the game having the scale that original had with super detailed full 3D models, you need to money as much as you need to make the biggest open world game.

I mean, SE did not need to do remake FF7 in the first place. it was obvious you cant make the proper remake if you do not split it, instead of this impossible project to achieve, they should have done HD remaster of the original, remaking original pre-rendering CGs into HD ones, which would not need a lot of money.

>It takes longer, yes, but their team sizes increased accordingly
I don't think you understand just how much work you need to do in order to graphicwhore nowadays, especially for a moviegame like FFVII.
>They've already said there's too much content for them to fit it on one game.
Yeah, just like they divided the original game in CDs, turns out you need a lot of time and money to do a proper conversion of a game which sold on graphics back then and needs to sell on graphics now, who would have thunk it?
>This all points to them being gigantic jews who've been pumping out trash games for the past decade and a half with less content than games they made 20 years ago.
No, this is the butthurt headcanon of a disenfranchised faggot.
Protip: FF has always been invariably trash, Squaresoft's production as a whole has been mediocre outside of two or three IPs which they drove to the ground in order to satisfy people like you.
>If FFXV had just as much content as FF7 how come they could fit FFXV on one disc?
Because they've been "working" on it since 10+ years, surprise surprise.

>old games, especially JRPGs, you could have more broader locations, more detailed maps, more varied environments due to the fact that you just need to make it with pre-rendering maps and fields. you dont need to make it with full 3D models unlike in these days
In other words, PS1 FF's had more content than modern FF's because they'd rather put the money into graphics and marketing.

I thought the reason for the psx version being on three discs was the music. Besides the music don't all three discs have the same data?

Nostalgiatards everyone

>I don't think you understand just how much work you need to do in order to graphicwhore nowaday
So don't graphics whore. Just have good graphics, that aren't absolutely insane. It's not neccesary.
>and needs to sell on graphics now
It caught eyes because of graphics, it sold because it was a solid fucking game with characters, locations and a plot that people fell in love with. You don't need graphics to sell an FF7 remake, it sells itself.
>Because they've been "working" on it since 10+ years
What in the fuck are you even trying to say moron?

Well, yeah, JRPGs this side of the PS2 have been less sophisticated (although more accesible) than even SNES ones. This is not news.

Music and FMV's

If they keep the three part plan, the last one may come out in 2034, if they keep their usual development cycles.

Oh, right.

And yet millions of retards, and most of Yea Forums, will rush out and pay $180 for the FF7 remake trilogy.

Fuck this fucking earth.

>because they'd rather put the money into graphics and marketing.
I am not saying that. rather, you could make the game having 100 times wider range than now with 100 times lesser money than now.

the problem is not square --- but the modern gaming itself. and anyone will not be satisfied anymore with PS1 low poly graphics.

>it sold because it was a solid fucking game with characters, locations and a plot that people fell in love with.
Uhhh how did people know it was a solid game that has characters, locations, and plot that they would fall in love with without buying the game

>Because you make money after release means that you magically have enough money to spend on making the game in the first place

That's how people go broke

The multiple discs was because of the size of the FMVs, not because of in-game assets.

Dev times would speed up after getting all the bases covered user.

>talks like a sarcastic prep

okay well you're kind of a dick

Oh, Final Fantasy has always been the most cinematic ones since what 4? It's a complete non-issue. People that claim stuff like P5 to be the return of old school JRPGs? Those I hate.

>So don't graphics whore
Impossible, FF is nothing without the graphics, nobody would care for a mediocre game series with garbage gameplay that doesn't even look good.
>it sold because it was a solid fucking game with characters, locations and a plot that people fell in love with.
Nah, it sold because it looked incredibly for its time and had an absurdly massive marketing campaign, that's it, the gameplay was trash even for its time and the characters and story were generic animu as fuck, if modern Yea Forums could have existed back then you'd see daily shitposting threads about how weebshit it was just like it happens nowadays.
>What in the fuck are you even trying to say moron?
Gee I don't know, maybe take that Squaresoft cock out of your mouth and try to listen to people, you retard.

I know you try to pretend FF wasn't trash in the past because you grew up with it, but not knowing any better at your age is fucking embarassing.

So don't buy it then you fucking sperg.
I'm hype as fuck - seems like they actually want to make a good game this time round.

Where is OP getting the info about the game having less content than the original and the game being 180$

>Uhhh how did people know it was a solid game that has characters, locations, and plot that they would fall in love with without buying the game
Because kids actually talked to each other and bought gaming magazines back in the day instead of spending all day on twitter

2030 seems more realistic, then.

Thanks to Square Enix's track record and how they've essentially dragged Final Fantasy's name through the mud, I have given up all hope of this game ever being good. Final Fantasy is dead. Maybe SE can change and create something amazing, but I really doubt it.

That's literally how video games work you drooling fucking retarded child.

You make the game, then you get your money back when you sell it.

Kill yourself nigger, how's that for being a dick?

Compared to what it's like now in the past it was the fucking mona lisa.

The fact remains their newer games can't hold a candle to their older ones.

>seems like they actually want to make a good game this time round
Yes, splitting a PS1 game into 3 seperate $60 games, padding them out with "new story elements" and probably shit tons of DLC just screams "we're doing this for YOU", right?.

Jesus fucking christ almighty give me STRENGTH...

OP didn't say it was cutting content. He was comparing PS1 FF's to PS4 FF's and saying how the fact FF7R is an episodic trilogy is proof their modern FF's have way less content, as FFXV fit on one disc just fine.

They're being huge jews, they're being putting less and less content into each new game and if you buy this trilogy you're cancer.

Wii won over PS3 retard

Wii doesn't even count as a video game console, it was a toy. It had 0 good games, name one, you can't.

Wasn't there a lot of cut content from the original that didn't get added to the game? You think they might be using those assets?

I dont know why this made me laugh, but it did.

Other gaem

I wouldn't say more content (FFXII and FFXV take the cake) but in terms of sheer scale the open world FFs are vastly larger than anything tried today. FFVII's city of Midgar locations aline are going to take more art and programming to pull off than an entire triple-A like Dishonored.

But Midgar had zero exploration whatsoever, it was a series of linear corridors with no freedom of progression, if anything this remake will change that and let you have at least some pretense of exploration like FFXV.

>wahh wahh im a faggot and I hate video games but I come to a board dedicated to them to complain about them
How does op do it?

THIS JUST IN

Square Enix is a business!

that's the tradeoff when you have to spend all your resources making HD assets. the only solution is AI. there's no greed element, it's purely technological and fiscal limitations.

And unlike FF7 it isn't a huge, revolutionary graphical leap.

Attached: 1557443949223.jpg (1280x720, 112K)

It won't even be for PS4, if anything the first episode will be PS4/5 and the remainders will be PS5 only.

>technological and fiscal limitations
Is that why there are AAA games released with a level of detail like this that aren't charging you 120$ for

there is no AAA game with the scale and detail of FF7 if they're planning on making the overworld a proper map.

>Well the reason for the episodic release, other than more money
Is more money. Period.

Fact.
You haven't even seen the game yet, you stupid black asshole. You don't know what they're doing or what the fuck they have.

I doubt it considering just how massively popular the switch has become it'll be multiplat within a year if not at release

Don't care. Aerith is cute.

Well if your remaking an old FF, its the whole fucking world while games like XV are just small regions that constantly were getting cut back to what we got.

I still find it hard to believe we would get a XV-style world, getting the scale right in 7 would be ridiculously hard and unlike XV you don't start with vehicles. I could definitely see small model on world map style of game outside the instances towns/cities/caves etc.

No they don't. FF7 is still the only FF game to sell over 10 million copies.

Not necessarily. FF7 is about 25 hours long, 30 by doing all side content not including materia farming. If they're going to add a shitload of padding o make part 1 40 - 60 hours long, it'll be much bigger content wise than the entirety of the original.

The whole point is that the only way for them to justify a remake is to split it up and sell them each at full price.

>You haven't even seen the game yet, you stupid black asshole. You don't know what they're doing or what the fuck they have.
>but I know its going to be shit
Lmao

A few 3D objects have more detail than the entire game back then

Seething

How is splitting the remake up into 3 parts any different than multiple CDs.

Because they're not charging separately for each.

FF7 on PS1 wasn't $180 moron

I'm not sure you know what the word "detail" actually means, user.

The original FF7 had none. Doing fully voiced scenes changes a lot.

This game would just be perfect on the Switch. think about it...

It's still going to be episodic. There's a reason they haven't shown anything but midgar so far. If they were working on areas outside of midgar they would have some cut ins of things like the big outside field areas

user you are retarded. The game is a year away and E3 is next month.

So you think they are going to build 90% of the game in a year? You do know midgar is just the very beginning of the game, right?

All those hundreds of pre-rendered backgrounds still had to be modelled by someone. I wonder if it's really that much more work than what they did back in the day.

Here's the biggest issue I foresee with the FF7 remake: how are they going to tackle the story? FF7 has a very unsatisfying story progression. It suffers from convoluted plotting typical of anime, and remaking it with detailed, realistic, high-fidelity graphics with fully voiced performances will only highlight those flaws even more.

I'm going to use Cloud as an example of the issues with FF7's narrative. Cloud is a terrible character, and it's because his entire personality revolves around a shitty M. Night Shyamalan-esque plot twist.

For starters, before the twist is revealed, Cloud doesn't show any indication he is suffering (aside from some vague hints that the story glosses over), so the end result is that he goes from being a taciturn hero who has internalized someone else's memories as his own without realizing it to...a taciturn hero who outwardly appears the same, but apparently has resolved all those deep-seated issues, no really, believe me.

Furthermore, what is even the point of the whole Nibelheim incident? Cloud goes from being a heroic person (which he clearly is, judging by the flashbacks where he rescues Tifa twice and defeats Sephiroth) who failed to qualify for the elite squad of the evil cyberpunk regime (i.e. not a group you'd want to join) to assuming the memories of...Zack, another heroic person who did qualify for the elite squad of the evil cyberpunk regime. As far as catalysts for mental breakdowns go, this comes across as very pedestrian in the grand scheme of things. It's like the writers wanted to have a plot twist and an identity crisis, but couldn't think of any compelling material for such a storyline.

Another big issue that FVII suffers from is the dialogue. Everyone in FVII communicates in very basic English sentences. Despite being a group of misfits, some of which aren't even human, all of the characters have very nondistinct and same-y styles of speech.

Attached: 1554540706019.gif (514x601, 395K)

If they had anything else to show, they would. They literally don't even have Tifa's model done yet

They don't though. The PS1 Final Fantasy games each sold similar amounts to FFXV, if not more.

>NO ONE WANTS FUCKING GRAPHICS
Wrong, retard/ 90% of the gaming audience screams when the graphics in a new game aren't pretty enough. Good job misunderstanding my post, I am literally making the opposite of a graphics whore argument

>the reason consoles are upgraded are so that developers can literally add more content into games
This is just blatantly untrue

Are you the op?

Don't take the bait

>4K-QUALITY TEXTURES
Bigger textures just means you can fit more detail in. They aren't harder to make. They are still painted in photoshop just like before and the normal maps are generated the same way.

>MODELS + GEOMETRY
The poly counts for characters are far higher but a lot of that is just higher subdivisions. Underneath the mesh isn't hugely more complicated.

>ALONG WITH MATCHING LEVELS OF ANIMATION AND SCRIPTING, REQUIRE MASSIVE FUCKING TEAMS OF MODELLERS, ARTISTS, ANIMATORS ETC.
Yeah, the animations are pretty crazy now. Especially the way Square rigs their characters with hundreds of bones. The animation systems for drapery, hair and inverse kinematic are pretty complicated.

The other place that receives a lot of programming time is the shaders nowadays too.

I would have taken an actual remake which updates the 3D models and retouches the backgrounds. Maybe even get higher quality sound.
Seeing this complete rework and new gameplay I'm wondering why they didn't just make a whole new game with that effort. The only reason I can think of is cashing in on that nostalgia and charging 3 times for it.

Kill yourself you casual fucking drone

>expecting them to model a whole mountain
no

Cope

No, it's actually the entire industry admitting that and it is true, it should be fucking obvious.
Graphics ruined gaming.

Good, because in that last thread after I told you that you didn’t know what about what it takes to make a game like this one you claimed that the remake should have taken a shorter time to make because the devs don’t have to worry about things like story, music, writing etc. your exact words were
>A large chunk of game development is coming up with the story, characters, music, setting etc. But they have all that already, it's done. It's ready to go, they can just jump right in to the technical side of things.
I didn’t see this until the thread got archived but here I can tell you straight up that your claim is fucking stupid, first of all things like story and writing take the shortest amount of time to develop, in fact if you read a game dev journal of pretty much any game you’d know that devs focus 90% of their work on the game itself and save things like writing until the very end, in fact most companies don’t even hire dedicated “writers” they just have the developers already doing other things focus instead on this aspect, not to mention that the remake not only needs to have a new script written which but also needs to completely voice acted out, you think that because it’s a remake this makes it take less time than a typical game? That’s ridiculous the gameplay style of the remake is completely different and so will things like the physics of the game and the environments, the remake will be a full on 3d game compared to the top view style of the original, not to mention every single asset from the game will have to be redone, and yes this includes the music as they obviously won’t use the fucking same music from the ps1 era, they are gonna use the same tune sure but a countless number of tracks will have to be recorded again and recomposed to fit a more modern style. Your claim that the remake should take less time is absurd. You clearly just have a “OLD GOOD NEW BAD” mentality

How can grown up men not get the fact that recreating the entire '97 game in today's graphics and mechanics without skipping anything and maybe even adding/changing stuff ala REmake 2 is probably gonna make the final product the biggest videogame ever made? Mind you I'm not talking about quality here, fuck SE after the Versus XIII fiasco but asking why the remake will take longer to make than a 2GB PS1 from the late 90s is fucking moronic, especially coming from people that live and breathe videogames every day of their lives.

This, this isnt a remake so much as it is an adaptation

The core gameplay isnt even the same, this is like if Ocarina of Time was remade into a Dark Souls clone

hey fuck you the only thing bad about crisis core was some wonky translated lines they should've rewrote, the game was pure heart.

Absolutely on point. Fuck this shit.

Because that's not even remotely what they're doing? If you think they're keeping every scene from the original game intact, you must be a child.

It's not just SE, everyone fucking does it now and I have a sneaking suspicion that fighting game DLC had a huge impact in making this a normal thing. In the old fighting games you'd have a complete cast, but now everyone expects a fighting game to have a season 1 full of dlc characters before the game is even out, which helps normalize it all. Fighting games aren't entirely responsible, but the practice did begin to get popular when they started doing it as well. We went from "expansion packs" to "buy the other half of the game, which we are selling to you separately on purpose". I'd say vote with your wallet but that doesn't work and nobody wants to stop giving these cunts money, so fuck it.

I'm not excited for the remake for that very same reason. Original FF games had so much content, it's impossible for it to be present base game in modern times because they'll just sell it all to you for an extra $25-$30 a pop, meaning the game will probably cost you, in the long run, about $150 to play the complete version. Instead of developing it all in the 8+ years they're gonna take anyway, they'd rather develop ONE part for 8+ years and sell you the other. It's almost like you're buying a fucking car or something, handing over monthly payments for a goddamn video game. The absurdity seems to be lost in the modern game crowd though, so to hell with it. People nowadays defend companies instead of calling them out, so what the fuck do I know.

The community has already done a lot of the work with mods.

Are the negativity justified?
Are people still skeptical of SE due to their fuck up with 15?
Are people pissed about how they changed the battle system from ATB to action?

What mod is this? I know there was one I tried to download a long time ago similar to this but I kept getting an unknown error and I gave up

Then why not make a new game instead

You actually think this is about memory size? The problem is bigger better tech has given us less game to play. Instead of putting it on multiple discs they're admitting that a game from over 2 decades ago is so big and so much work just to replicate with better graphics that they have to charge multiple times to recoup the cost.

Technology should give us more, not less but flashier. Memory size be damned. It could be 5TB but the fact is we're being asked to buy a fraction of a game because going forward took us backwards.

I'm 33

>Mmm, yes please feed me more of your delicious shit Square

Both were designed by a handful of people.
The people doing the grunt work doesn't have input on design of the game

I said they have the framework AND THAT DOES SAVE TIME.

Even if it's only 10% of what they need, it's still time saved. Regardless of whether it all needs to be remade, they know what it's supposed to look and sound like which is a time saver and you can't argue otherwise. They've had 3 years, it should be on shelves right now.

I know what it takes to make games and I know remaking this one is a huge undertaking, but they have the staff and the money to do it so stop defending them like it's poor ol Squeenix up against the world. They're a multi billion dollar company with thousands of employees. My main point is I'm just blown away that any company would admit so shamelessly that their newer games are so bereft of actual content that when they remake one of their older ones it's like making 3 of their new games. It disgusts me to my core. I want to spit on every Squeenix higher up from the past 20 years.

The community should stop doing any kind of work, if it makes it look like a mobile game.

Your logic doesn't make sense at all. They're basically doing this because they don't want to take a decade to release one game, and are instead releasing multiple fully fleshed out games over time. They're not only trying not to sacrifice the scale of the original, they're making it even bigger. I swear, you faggots will bitch about anything.

It's a sad state of affairs,I never thought I'd see the day where people defend and PRAISE companies for jewing them. They defend them like it's their fucking grandmother being bullied.

It's only going to get worse over time, artforms don't crash like societies or empires do. Look at movies, rock solid decline into trash since their peak in the 70's/80's.

You can pick and choose what you want. People have slowly been rerendering the backgrounds for a long time now.

No, they're doing it for money.

If they split the game into 3 and throw in some """New""" content (padding) they can justify charging you $60 three fucking times just to get one game. You're a retard if you can't see this.

SOULLESS

this post again

Who said anything about length you illiterate cunt?

CONTENT. C.O.N.T.E.N.T.

Minigames, side quests, weapons, many and varied locations, characters, music, FMV's and so on. Fucking go away until you reach 18, you fucking peanut brain.

Well not $180 but adjusted for inflation a $60 from 1997 is like $95 today

ohhh digging!

>Cloud doesn't show any indication he is suffering

This has to be bait.

Ok, then FF15 indeed beats FF13 in that.

Keep in mind when you buy it that you have doomed all future games to try this same strategy of dividing their games into three installments. You are helping this business model become more widespread and common.

I want Aerith to sit on my face

>defending Square
I have said numerous times that Square is a bunch of niggers, but regardless do you have any idea how much longer it would take to make this remake than it would to make the original game, and also the story is not the “framework” other than the story itself there are pretty much no assets from the original game that can be reused, everything has to be redone from scratch, and what company’ admitted that new games are devoid of content, new games have literally thousands of times the content that old games did, in fact new games have so much content that some of them are completely overwhelming. If you came here and said “old games are better than new games” I would say that’s subjective and I can’t really argue it, but saying that “old games have more content” is objectively wrong, try to take a game like red dead 2, or monster hunter world and put it on the ps1, the ps1 would be literally incapable of handling that many assets at once, the fact remains that saying old games have “more content” is wrong, you could say they have “better content” and that would just be your opinion, but saying new games have “less content” is completely wrong. As I said you have the typical “OLD GOOD NEW BAD MENTALITY”

Same, but for Aeris instead.

An important part of the narrative is Cloud going to do snowboarding after Aeris death, so I guess it'll be snowboarding.

I wonder if we'll be able to change clothes or if there'll be visual customziation capabilities tho.

No it doesn't, FF15 is fucking dreck. It has no fucking content, it has the main story and a bunch of copy paste trash for side content.

user, are you okay?

That is horrible

So what?

Games sell for $60 now, I don't care when it's from they sell for $60.

>No, they're doing it for money.
This just in: developers create games to sell them.
Are you inbred?

>ew games have literally thousands of times the content that old games did
A million "go kill the goat" quests is not content retard. It's called padding. Modern games are 90% padding.

>try to take a game like red dead 2, or monster hunter world and put it on the ps1, the ps1 would be literally incapable of handling that many assets at once
That's technical limitations, you couldn't have 3D open worlds on PS1. That's not the same thing at all.

And RDR2 and MHW are both games NOTORIOUS for having no fucking content, especially compared to their predecessors.

user theyre ripping you off lol

>you couldn't have 3D open worlds on PS1
That's where you're wrong kiddo

Lets talk about the FMV's we want to see for scenes we didn't get to see in the original game. For me:
>Sephiroth's attack on Shinra Headquarters
>Sephiroth vs the Midgar Zolom
>How Sephiroth snuck onto the boat
>More of Dyne
>Maybe more of Shinra's plotting
>More of the Turks
>Lots of cutscenes showing how beautiful and amazing Cosmo Canyon is
>Cloud having flashbacks throughout the journey to the reactor in his hometown

I could go on and on.

>>Sephiroth vs the Midgar Zolom
Childhood is Tifa
way to miss the whole point of that scene

Yuffie when she steals your materia and hides it in her shorts.

in 1997 they stillw ere $60, so if they sell the same, but the price has not been adjusted for inflation, and the games are more expensive to make now than 20 years ago, the math says....?

Are you a cock loving faggot?

Fuck companies, I don't care if they make money. You can't sell one game three times for full price. That's jewish greed and any retard that enables it deserves to be shot.

>the math says....?
Don't waste so much money developing shiny graphics. That's what the math says you boot licking faggot.

>Sephiroth's attack on Shinra Headquarters
>Sephiroth vs the Midgar Zolom
>How Sephiroth snuck onto the bo

None of them were Sephiroth though, he never snuk into the boat, because it was a mind controlled minion by Jenova.

Jesus christ these threads on FFVIIRE are showing that people either has never actually played the original game, forgot about it, or really didn't pay any fucking attention.

>Lets talk about the FMV's we want to see for scenes we didn't get to see in the original game.
>FMVs
Why would you want this? In-engine cutscenes are better, because they use the same assets as gameplay. FMV make the game feel more artificial by using different assets from gameplay.

I just wanted a 1 for 1 remake with better graphics like RE1.

You are a retard.

HD was a mistake

How can people be excited for this game ?

We already know the story, the combat isn't turn based and the first episode has been announced for a long fucking time.

There is no way the three episodes will be released in the next 10 years.

I like to see the pretty graphics and Aerith and all, but I don't feel any hype.

How did it take you?

I used to think that childishly proven wrong theory was right too user. Maybe some day you will grow up.

If they do it like .hack did, I'd be fine with it.

Disc 1:
>max level is 40, but 30ish is where you'll be if you didn't grind at the end of the game
>materia only goes up to level 2
>start with one limit break, but can only get their 1.2 in the first game
>redxiii will be the last party member

Sephiroth is cut in half in the northern crater since the before the game events start... have you actually played the game?

Don't recall, I was obsessed with the game, so the tiem didn't matter, but it was between 1997 when the game came out and like, up to 2002.

I even bought this.

The WEAPONs awakening for the first time. I'm also hoping they add a Sapphire WEAPON boss fight this time around.

Actually, you can. Because they will. And there's nothing you can do about it

Does it actually go apart?

Why are you defending a company?

Why are you defending being gouged for 3x more than what you would normally pay?

Why do you WANT to pay 3x more than you should?

Audience for games in the 10s is 10 times the audience from the late 90s

>max level is 40
Half the fun of ff7 is grinding early, getting early limits and enemy skills and nuking everything.

You're right they should put out a game with a 10 billion dollar budget instead

nope

none of the fun minigames will be included, calling it now

>Why are you defending a company?
Attacking somebody for engaging in the conversation.

>Why are you defending being gouged for 3x more than what you would normally pay?
Nobody is being gouged, this is just you misrepresenting the situation because you're dishonest.

>Why do you WANT to pay 3x more than you should?
Should? Who decides that? People are willing to pay what the product is worth to them. The $60 standard is arbitrary and you're getting hung up on it without considering the value of what you're getting in return. A theoretical $60 version of the game that comes in one piece is undoubtedly worth less than what we're going to get. People are willing to pay more because we're getting more. If that doesn't end up being true, then would be the time to complain.

You sound like an actual faggot

But of course.

They should stop spending millions of $'s on graphics.

I respect you, user.

So my question is this. Isn't PS5 going to be announced soon? How will they handle that?

>people are surprised when FF7, a game known for pushing graphical standards even further beyond, has a remake that also pushes it further

Part one is going to be a cross-generation title. Part two will be PS5 only.

FFXV hasn't even reached 9 million sales, while FFVII has more than 11, the size of the audence does not matter, but the number of sales.

But did you find the hidden Ribbon in the Gay's Cliff caverns?

They start from scratch, like they did With Final Fantasy Versus. / FF XV

A funny thing, the shipping cost more than the sword itslef because of the weight.

Just going from ff7 to ff10 was eye opening. FF7 had full world exploration with areas unnecessary for the main quest but with content to do.
>ff10 is nothing but linear hallways and the airship isn't free roam, it's just fast travel

It's been a long downward trend

>a game known for pushing graphical standards even further beyond

Attached: ouch.jpg (222x300, 9K)

You don't NEED the most shiniest, expensive graphics that exist for your game.

If you can't budget a game without splitting it into three parts, protip: you're fucking spending too much money on graphics retards so dial them back to reasonable fucking levels.

Yeah, afther the 3 original runs, the 10 for full 100% I did with guides.

>Attacking somebody for engaging in the conversation.
What? Stop assuming everyone is aware of your zoomer thought process and explain properly. pay?
>Nobody is being gouged, this is just you misrepresenting the situation because you're dishonest.
Paying 3x for one game is being gouged.
>Should? Who decides that?
50+ years of consumers and game companies reaching a cold war like agreement that $60 is the upper limit for a video game, that's who you stupid fuck.
>The $60 standard is arbitrary and you're getting hung up on it
It's important, otherwise companies would charge as much as they want for games.
>without considering the value of what you're getting in return.
A PS1 game that sold for $60 in the 90's is what I'm getting in return.
>A theoretical $60 version of the game that comes in one piece is undoubtedly worth less than what we're going to get. People are willing to pay more because we're getting more. If that doesn't end up being true, then would be the time to complain.
The "more" you're getting is worthless graphics whoring and padding to justify the pricetag of $60 for 3 chunks of one game you drooling corporate drone.

>guides
Aside from the piano there is literally nothing that's obscure enough to justify that.

This board IS for people who actually don't play vidya to bitch and moan about anything but actually discussing about vidya. Seriously, you literally cannot discuss about the remake in this shithole anymore without these nostalgia ridden manbabies shitting it up. They are their own version of XV-kun. Fuck this shit hole.

Tell that to the marketing department.

I guess you are not the owner, or a director at a AAA studio, huh?

>You haven't even seen the game yet, you stupid black asshole. You don't know what they're doing or what the fuck they have.
Oh the irony

No, but I found no other way to be sure I was actually doing 100%.

Yep. Playing it on an emulator on my phone.

Did Cloud always have bolts glued to his shoulder armor?

yes

longer than 12, really?

>A PS1 Final Fantasy has so much more content than a PS4 Final Fantasy that they have to cut it up into 3 parts and spend probably 5+ years remaking it in HD

No shit retard? PS1 games didnt require a quarter of the effort that devs puts on the visuals now.
It was a thousand times easier to make games back then.

So, KH3 has a lot of content then?

Still in the scene it was "sephiroth". That's what the OP meant, how they'll recreate the scene in modern times. Jesus fucking christ, you manbabies are just bitching for the sake of bitching.

XIII trilogy is the equivalent of a single PS1 FF with fully voiced and animated cutscenes
