RE2 is tiny and short compared to ff7

>Imagine paying 210$
Don't forget they are one the ps4 then ps5 so you have to add in the price of two consoles too. 610 dollaree doos for people that already own a ps4.
Also you're a faggot esl. Learn english.

>Also you're a faggot esl. Learn english.
Did you have a stroke?

The base game will be $60 per so $180 USD is very likely, but include dlc with each and you might be seeing $90 per which means $270 total or more.

They're going to sell the original OST for 10$, then the original costumes for 5$ each, then possibly the advent children costumes for the same fee.

Prism "All palestinian children must die" Schreier will get his comeuppance eventually

He didn't. You outed yourself as English being your second language because you put the dollar sign after rather than before.

Yuffie will no longer be an optional unlockable character. But now optional dlc. The fans will defend it by saying she was always optional and not a core member so of course her content would be an optional purchase too.

how will he ever recover¿¿¿

What does that mean for Vincent then?

god damn I'm sick of seeing this guy's disgusting jew face. Kitase probably just wanted this filth out of his face asap.

Jason confirmed for poor reading comprehension

Vincent will have his own game to himself called Final Fantasy VII Episode 4: Dirge of Cerberus

Jason is obviously too autistic to read between the lines and see beyond the corporate doublespeak.

Imagine paying 60 bucks for a part of a remake of a 20 year old game.
Nobody can be seriously considering buying this, right?

honestly with English as my first language I still do that without thinking because it makes more sense when spoken. you say "100 dollars," not "dollars 100."

It’s either 2 or 3 they just don’t know how much shit they have to fit in the second because playable characters, also I reckon the first one will finish on aerith death

>you don't say dollars 100
That's what esl believe

I guess but people who grow up at least in America wouldn't even question it. It is customary.

fuck off juan
>that's pesos 100
typical fucking mexican

>it makes more sense
No, dollars make more cents you absolute retard.

This post makes no fucking sense.

This post is what happens when an esl is ashamed of his native land and tries to role play as a native English speaker.

He unironically looks like a foreign ambassador, for a country like Switzerland or something

1. Midgar
2. Up to the end of Disc 2
3. Disc 3
I'm pretty sure this is good enough

If it’s three disc then it is going to be:
1) Midgar
2) rest of disc 1
3) disc 2 & 3

>literally shove like 80% if not more of the original game into Episode 2
under your model Episode 3 would be like three hours long and then cutscenes

You know what would have been good enough for me? The full game released complete.

Would they realise a full game of basically side-quests?

Just wait 20 years for complete edition

>realise
Release

wtf I actually sat here and read all that but it was pretty good 7/10

I saw you yesterday. Yea Forums is a very small community.

English is a trash language anyway.

this game was the first final fantasy title for a lot of people that started playing games in the playstation era
there is probably some decent nostalgia bucks in that

I absolutley hate the guy, but I can't knock him for his reporting, he currently is doing better reporting than most game "journalists". But that says less about him and more about the sorry state of game "journalism".

Other sites are reporting the same thing

>decent
The idea of an FF7 remake has been a thing for as long as I can remember. It was always the "press in times of emergency" button.

Jason also said he liked what he played of FF7R so I guess FF7R confirmed shit?

What needs to happen is that people stop thinking of this as three divided-up episodes of a single game, and start thinking of it as a trilogy of individual games re-telling the story. Marketing this as "episodic" initially was a mistake. They're gonna flesh-out, add, remove and change around so much that it's gonna be an entirely different experience compared to a straight remake anyway.

Brand loyalty or corporate shilling. I can't even tell.

>people need to stop thinking splitting one game into a bunch for money as bad but start thinking of it as good
Shill leave

fucking this. most people interested that lived at at the announcement will be dead before the super-duper complete edition deluxe will be released

It’s no just English that does that

what really needs to happen is that square enix needs to fix its stupid business until it can produce a aaa game without some kind of crippling dev hell, because there are a ton of video games made every year and i don't really need to play a game i played 20 years ago

Or we can complain that FF7R is objectively unfinished

My first language is Spanish and we use pesos in my country. I don't know where the fuck they do, but we certainly don't write "100$" or say "pesos 100".
We're backward shitholes, but we aren't that retarded.

Dedicating an entire game to Midgar is pretty odd considering it was less than half of disc 1. I think they probably chose to do that because it's a bit of a shift in the tone of the game, going from the narrow streets to wide open spaces. The next similar shift in tone would probably be the end of disc 1 which would make for a decent end of part 2. The next one after that is maybe the point where Cloud falls into the lifestream and the party kind of splits up, but that is way too short of a section to make up part 3 so I don't know what they're going to do at that point.

They're most likely doing it in parts because remaking the entire thing in one go is too expensive. There's a reason they put off the idea for like a decade.

How good is the pay at Square Enix for a full time shill? I have been wondering if it is a viable career.

>remaking the entire thing in one go is too expensive
No, it's because they're too impatient to wait until they finish the whole thing before release like literally every game dev with their DLCs. If they can finish FF13 & FF15 as a complete game then there's no reason they can't do the FF7 remake as well.

There is no amount of shilling that will make us like you, unironically kill yourself.

>All palestinian children must die
He's pretty based then. Fuck sandniggers.

dog do you remember how many fucking unique locations there are in ff7 that are important to the plot? compare that to ffxv which has what, three towns you can actually walk around in? i'm not trying to defend them splitting it up but opting to remake something at the scale of ff7 at the fidelity they're doing it at is a massive undertaking.

“While the development team finishes the first game of the project, they are also planning the volume of content for the second. Due to the work already done on the first game, we anticipate that the development of the second game will be more efficient. However, for now we would like to focus on the development of the first game.”

If you think modern Square can do that, you're delusional

Imagine being such a cuck you support this level of milking. You will die before the final part of a once 40 hour game will come out. Your grandkids will have to play the final part in your honor.

>FF13
>FF15
>complete games
Fucking, kek.

It's a fucking 40 hour game

>turning one story into a trilogy
Did squeenix hire Peter Jackson or something?

FFVII is much bigger than either XIII or XV. You also underestimate just how much more work the remake is going to take. FFVII had a fixed camera angle outside of the world map so they only needed to draw static backgrounds and maybe place some half-modeled extremely low detail objects on top and call it a day. Now they have to fully model all of those things in 3D and put in the amount of detail that is expected from a modern game. It's multiple times the work per area for an already very large game. That doesn't mean that it couldn't be done, but it's difficult to convince investors to back a project that would take massive amounts of funding and keep the studio busy for like half a decade, when they likely want something more low risk with consistent returns.

Selling the game in parts was the only realistic way for it to happen. I would have preferred a single game too just like pretty much everyone, but it's just not practical especially from a business standpoint.

FF7R is the Hobbit trilogy of video games prove me wrong

The cracks were already there in 8 and 9.

>What needs to happen is that people stop thinking of this as three divided-up episodes of a single game, and start thinking of it as a trilogy of individual games re-telling the story.
Part 1 being sold at regular AAA game price and the other parts being free like the original game. That's how you'd separate the idea of it being divided up

Many gamers are such cucks they probably regularly fantasize about being a woman with watermelon sized breasts being forcefully milked and fucked.

FF7 also didn't take ten fucking years to make like nuSquare is claiming.

I dont like jews
they have terrible behaviour on a genetic level

wasn't this announced like, 2-3 years ago?
how TF have they not even gotten the very basics designed? All there's been has been a few tiny snippets of gameplay footage and some cutscenes.

No wonder they're released in parts. Part 1 is PS4.5 exclusive. Part 2 is PS5 exclusive. Part 7 is never ever. I'm betting right now that the next Sony console release will have a pre-order bonus of being able to buy RE-FF7-1 a week early and fanbois will throw $949.99 (not including tax and tip) at it in an instant.

Disc 3 in the original is basically just the final dungeon so this is absolutely wrong.

At the very least it's obvious that FF7R won't get to the end of Disc 1. They've yet to show anything outside of Midgar yet and there's a lot to Disc 1 besides Midgar. I think optimistically FF7R can be three parts if part 2 picks up partway through disc 1 and continues until partway through disc 2 and part 3 finishes it off. But I wouldn't trust modern Square not to fuck that up so I'm guessing 4 or even more is likely

Cartanica/ Tenebrae has item store, weapon store, NPCs and lodging too all the same. Plus Insomnia which is a dungeon with a rest area like fort condor is not a town but has a rest area and things to fight

and Midgard is like 20 still screens, it's a massive shift to go from that full 3D and then allowing a person to move through it freely, even if it's the same length when you increase the fidelty your giving people more to do, weather it's Midgard or the entire western continent, you increase the fidelty you increase the stuff to do in game.

Although I don't agree with all the padding they're doing to Midgard, especially with the Guard Scorpion, I do think having a Midgard you can freely run through in the beggining of the game would be cool, but you need to leave some of that for the later game to, they're putting to many eggs in one basket for Midgard and they're compleley loosing they're sense of pacing and spacing shit out from Part 1, and it's going to bite them in the ass when everything becomes one game, or anyone who wants to start a new game and has to fight Guard Scorpion a second time, god that looks tedious.

Jason wants to flood the thread until it hits bump limit because his feelings were hurt under the guise of being an anti-eceleb crusader.

They are banking on the fanbase being desperate idiots and they probably are.

Why are some people droning hard for SE with this remake?

The man's a pedophile. He's not that depraved.

With the FIRST CLASS edition you can pay that much for the first disc and a toy. Happy meals are cheaper tho.

You probably don't even state the punctuation after every sentence

It'll most likely be like the Hobbit movies that bloat irrelevant or made up details into a drawn out unsatisfying mess. Can't wait to help Biggs and Wedge search junkyards to make a reactor bomb for 3 hours.

>he says this and then doesnt even punctuate his sentence. FULL STOP

Only gamers can rise up.

Whoa whoa whoa cool it with the antisemitism

Punctuating would give in to esl terrorists.

Its 4 for sure in my head. FF7 is fucking linear as hell, they can turn the overworld into a hallway like 10 and 13 and almost nothing would change until a few hours into disc 2 where you get the airship. I still would find it hard to see going from Midgar in Part 1, to finishing Disc 1 in part 2 and part 3 wrapping up with all of disc 2 and 3. Disc 1 is huge.

Why does it matter if they're all good?

Leave the European StarCraft League alone

Have you not been keeping up with Square for the past decade? These guys always announce games too early and they always have a problematic development process
