Not sure how I feel about an episodic game getting any kind of DLC. Shouldn't all resources be put into the next part?
I admire the effort they have put into this DLC but kinda feel like it will delay them actually finish making this remake.
This could be their way to introduce Yuffie in advance of getting her in Part 2. Kind of an interlude type deal to help gamers endure the wait. Square Enix has a lot of manpower, so I don’t think this will delay Part 2 much if at all. The pandemic is probably the only thing that could and most likely will delay it.
Good thing they haven’t announced a release date yet.
It’s a remake. Not a remaster. They are adding to the original, yet Kitase assured people the story wouldn’t derive from the original.
If Yuffie being presented in a DLC is your argument for it to be a sequel to the original, I don’t know what to tell you, if not that I can now understand why you would adhere to such theories.
A remake doesn’t have to be a carbon copy of the original version at all. In fact, they’re usually not.
Take the many King Kong remakes for movies, or the Resident Evil 2 remake for games, for examples.
And there was no remaster of VII. What you’re talking about is a port. That being said, you should look into Ever Crisis. Seems like that’s what you want.
The battles in Ever Crisis look like the remake, but play more like the original. And the concept you speak of isn’t alien. But it’s also nothing to lose energy on. You took FFVII as is, and liked it , yet can’t approach other projects the same way. Asking for it to be this and that and whatever, like a spoiled-rotten kid who isn’t getting his way. That’s being closed-minded.
I'm sure the remake was a bigger percentage of the whole game than just that. I played the original back in 2019, and outside the midgar region, I remember around 10/15 hrs of gameplay.
Really ? There was some woods region with some strange creatures there, there was that festival fare place that you catch a ride through a fmv sequence, some outdoor region that you explore by boat and vehicle, and some ship fortress. Then again I was playing the game in speed mode outside of midgar and was powering my way through all those random battles.
Then you should've realized your experience was an inaccurate representation of the game...
why? too many random same battles. i had to speed through it.
The frequency of random battles is the same in and out of midgar, you did not speed through them in Midgar but did after that hence you got a wrong perception of how much of the game is made up of Midgar.
The game had too many random encounters. When you cut all that out the game isn't as long as people think it is.
That's beside the point.
I'll revisit the game's missions / story arch and see
Wonderful. And end of 2022.. Final Fantasy 16 or FF7R Part 2 for PS5 :)
Sony just announced that FFVII Remake will be a free PS Plus game for March. Probably should have included that news in the announcement yesterday. What an awesome gesture for players with the PS5 upgrade.
Hyping for yuffie dlc haha
Great, I recently beat it on ps4, and put up with the memory texture issues, but overall looked great. Don't know if i'll bother playing it again or have the time.
Looks gay as fuck
Nice to see you again, CGI. I hope you are well:)
So what your saying is Part 2 won't make the PS5 and just release on PS6.
He said current gen...
