Final Fantasy 7 Remake isn’t the Game We Wanted

For years now we've been waiting for Final Fantasy 7 Remake to come out, and now that it's here it isn't anything to gloat about. Ya, it's nice to hear the voices of our characters and see them in amazing action scenes.

I completely agree. They had more than enough time to make the game we've begged for and deserved. Why remake something if you're changing almost everything about it and you still can't release it as one full game?! They wasted time reimagining it and coming up with new characters and storylines. It's not like they didn't know we wanted it until recently. They started teasing it way back in 2005 before the PS3 released. A simple 1:1 HD remake would've been perfect. ala Resident Evil 2 remake. But noooo. Square-Enix sucks. And Eastern developers wonder why they're so far behind Western developers. Capcom not withstanding, it's because they're not efficient. They waste time instead of just doing.

stupidusername1887d ago (Edited 1887d ago )

Wow, that’s salty. No, it’s not a remake - it’s a reimagining. But all the better for it. We’ve already got FF7 and if I want that I’ll play it. FF7 remake is a new take and Square Enix is in their full right to do so. Entitled gamers don’t deserve s^it.
And btw, ff7 remake is a incredible and undoubtedly full game that took me 44 hours to beat.

meka26111887d ago

Yet the marketing is saying a remake. People have screamed for years for this remake and now it's a reimagining, yet you fanboys wonder why people are upset. Just because you didn't like the original doesn't mean others didn't.

Black-Helghast1887d ago

How is that salty? You're salty because you support a half assed cash grab and he spoke the truth

stupidusername1887d ago (Edited 1887d ago )

@meka2611
1. I agree that it’s false advertisement.
2. People are of course allowed to be upset, but to say that they ‘deserve’ a game just because their fans, that I disagree with.
3. When did I say I didn’t like the oeiginal? It’s a gem, and the remake doesn’t replace it, they’re both out there to be enjoyed.

stupidusername1887d ago

@Black-Helghast
Cash grab? If you’d played the game you’d know that not to be true.

reinterpret (an event, work of art, etc.) imaginatively; rethink.

Remake and Reimagine are pretty much synonymous.... There's no false advertisement you just don't understand the vocabulary. If you wanted the original with updated models/textures you want a remaster... which this game is not.

b163o11887d ago (Edited 1886d ago )

Yeah I can't call this game a cash grab, I've been playing for 3 days, taking my time with it. As far as people screaming "It is, It isn't a remake". I really don't care, if it is or isn't. People are saying it's a re-imagining. I can kind of agree with that OR are we are getting the game as it was truly intended to be? I know my opinion is far fetched

fr0sty1886d ago

People will bitch about anything these days... quit whining and go play the original, if the original is what you wanted. There's nothing at all wrong with it. This game stays as true to the original as a current gen remake possibly can, while at the same time diving far deeper into the story than the original did, and making the characters far more enjoyable/relatable. I'm enjoying this game more than any other modern RPG I've played in years.

shauzy1886d ago

@meka2611 turns out its a remake of the story not the game lol

L7CHAPEL1886d ago (Edited 1886d ago )

Well firstly your use of "entitled gamer" which is always the run to phrase of somebody that got what they wanted, and doesn't think anyone has the right to criticize,If your paid money for it, you're not entitled, when I buy a car I'm allowed to criticize (believe it or not) and have an opinion.
and EVERYONE IS "entitled" to their opinion, so let's get that one clear, okay?
Secondly does it say *reimagining* on the box?
No, no it doesn't, it says REMAKE,
Doesn't it?
you could say you don't share,
or don't understand everyone's opinion as far as negativity towards the project, but saying they're entitled, or implying they don't have a right to their opinion,
just makes you sound like a suck up/ lap dog...

stupidusername1886d ago (Edited 1886d ago )

@L7CHAPEL
I call him entitled because he said he ‘deserved’ a game that he wanted, not because he’s not entitled to his own opinion which he in fact is. Just because my opinion disagrees with his doesn’t mean that I believe his opinion isn’t valid. What made you assume that??

I do agree that the word ‘remake’ is misleading and that it to some extent is false advertisement.

I’ll ignore you’re name calling.

fr0sty1886d ago

People are actually arguing the semantics of the word remake... they have nothing better to bitch at than the fact that We didn't get the exact same game word for word, despite how dated that would have appeared with modern day visuals, animation, sound, etc.

Anarki1886d ago

No one knows what's going to happen in the next installment so I'd suggest you get off of your high horse and wait and see how that turns out.

Godmars2901886d ago

"undoubtedly full game"

Only its not. Its not a reimagining of the full original game. If they've changed it to the level they have, to a degree that's going to take several more separate titles that will come under the same name, then they should have made new "FF" entries. Not further rely on brand recognition and use FF"7". That's what makes this disgusting, that Square can't "simply" make new entries.

badz1491886d ago

@Black-Helghast

The game might not be what some people are expecting but a "cash grab"?? WTF?

MK8 Deluxe, DK Tropical Freeze and all the other Wii U remasters are cash grabs, this FF7 Remake is not.

Babadook71886d ago

It’s the game I wanted.

Black-Helghast1886d ago

When it comes to games like final fantasy and kingdom hearts, it's useless to speak facts to its casual fans.

The game is a cash grab for the sole reason that they're gonna sell you two other parts of a game that could've easily been finished by now. I remember when they teased a final fantasy remake before final fantasy versus 13 became final fantasy 15. That's over 10 years and they still haven't finished a game basically every fan has asked?

I'm sorry if you're too blinded by your delusion as a fanboy and can't see they could've finished the whole game and sell it as a single product.

This is definitely not the game I wanted. I will be patient and wait for a full game experience, mean while, have fun with your "final fantasy ground zero". And dont @ me with stupid facts like "we has extra content hurhurrr" when most are just dull sidequests and stuff that wasn't on the original.

Mr_Writer851886d ago

@black-helgast.

How can something that's costs millions and taken years to make be a cash grab?

Do you even know what cash grab means?

ScootaKuH1886d ago

When is a remake not a remake? Apparently when it's called Final Fantasy 7 Remake!

It's even on the box. It's called Final Fantasy 7 Remake so it's a remake.

It's not called Final Fantasy 7 Reimagined is it? Although I do think that would actually be a better and more accurate name for it

fr0sty1886d ago (Edited 1886d ago )

@godmars, this game sticks too close to retelling the same story to brand itself as anything other than ff7, even if there's some new content, some dialogue is better written, voice acted, better animated, better art direction, etc. to reflect the modern upgrade.

PyroMessiah861886d ago

Sorry but its not full.....its not finished and narrative is still not finished at Midgar. Waiting for the full release on Xbox Series X myself next April.

What "western" developers are leading the Eastern division?🤣🤣 Please help me understand because anything that's worth anything generally comes out of the EAST.🤣🤣

Sony & Nintendo, just to throw a couple of names out there. Who are you referring to, EA? Perhaps, Microsoft? From consoles to games, if it weren't for the eastern developers, you wouldn't even have the PS4, you're attempting to gripe about. Either you're trolling with this comment or have a very narrow understanding of the industry. Either way, it's best, if you're not willing to do your homework first, to keep comments like this on the inside. West leading the East, who's this kid kidding?!?!😂

ECHOINFINITY1887d ago

To be fair on playstation majority of the heavy hitting studios are western. Not to say the eastern studios don't make great games, but despite Sony being an Eastern company naughty dog, sucker punch, Santa Monica etc are all western based.

L7CHAPEL1886d ago

Echoinfinity is correct, the majority of PlayStations most highly-regarded games are not Eastern created games, they're from studios/developers outside of the East.
Who are you kidding?

1886d ago
SurgicalMenace1886d ago (Edited 1886d ago )

Who founded and funded those studios? We shouldn't have to go business 101 here, but if you'd like to mince words, we can.

Note: Just because I own houses in Europe doesn't mean I'm European? What western founded and funded companies are operating on the level of Sony & Nintendo's American owned development houses?

Pay attention people, this is the simple stuff without including the ins and outs of globalization. They were leading from the East and wanted to cut the costs within their supply chain, so they built studios in America to accomplish that. So, if Sony's name is on it, it is deemed a Japanese owned subsidiary.

The decision to produce American development houses was decided between 1990-1992. The construction and acquisition of all of Sony American owned houses began between 1993-94. Now we can look down the list of American OWED companies if you all like and we can continue this little lesson. I digress, as you guys are talking about the games while ignoring where their backing is rooted. So, again, show me where the West leads the East in game development?🤷🏾 ‍♂️ I'll wait.🤣

NealGamby1886d ago (Edited 1886d ago )

@ SurgicalMenace

https://www.theverge.com/20...

But yeah, I'm the one with the "narrow understanding of the industry".

That article was written 6 years ago, but things haven't changed too much. How about you stay up to date before you criticize others?

extermin8or1886d ago

Almost all sony's western studios started off as western funded businesses with multicultural teams of staff that worked as 2nd party partners and were eventually bought by sony. Naughty dog for example came from universal studios who published the original crash games. Insomniac also worked for universal. Sony bought naughty dog, insomniac went independent until recently and activision bought universal's game rights etc.

SurgicalMenace1886d ago

What's funny is you're basing your findings on one article, while business acumen supports everything that I stated. Who owns and funds those American development houses? Just answer the question and we can move on.🤣 Deflecting has never proven affective in any discussion.

I don't know what anyone is expecting. But square enix has been very clear from the start that this was going to be a reimagining of the original game. For those of you still stuck on the word "remake" need to understand that words can have more than one meaning and can be synonymous with one another... Oh wait I can't expect you to understand what's synonymous means either so... Yeah

Damn, to the numbskull that called it a cash grab. Just half ass hd remaking it would be an obvious cash grab. Don't get me wrong. I think a legit hd remake some right wouldn't be considered a "cash grab". By people with sense but no matter what everyone isn't going to be pleased with this. No one deserves a good damn thing though. I understand the dismay but that's wrong. They were damned if they did( re imagined) and damned if they didn't (hd remake) but they would have been fkd if they did neither.

dumahim1886d ago

As a huge fan of the original, I quite like the game. Would I prefer something more faithful to the original? Hell yes. But this is still pretty damn good and I'm nearing the end and there's only a couple things I don't care for, mainly the side quests that have nothing to do with the story and how much we've seen Sephiroth already.

Kos-Mos1886d ago

"Far behind"

Still winning goty almost every year with a lot of runners up.
It begs the questions, how far behind are you and what kind of generic taste do you have?

Edito1886d ago

You can't call them not efficient when the Easters are releasing different games instead of unfinished games with 50GB day one patch and Battle Royale all the way... westerns are releasing the same game all the time Sony WWS are out of the group and some others but that's it.

I just think you have no right to call them inefficient because at the end of the day you don't know the challenges they faced to make this happen, a game from 1997 dude and more complex that Capcom games let's be real.

This is something.

Its a good game, but calling it the Final Fantasy VII Remake..when it is like 10% of the classic Story ..but with a lot of filler materia..l added I wonder when the whole Remake is complete. In 2030? No..this is not the remake I wanted and expected back when it was revealed at the E3..2015.

RyanShutup1887d ago

I mean you could always just run through the story and don't do any of the new fun side quests I guess?

Larrysweet1887d ago

SIDe quest are def not fun

1886d ago
RyanShutup1886d ago

@MegamanExpert you're missing the point. I was replying about the game only being 10% of the classic story. It's almost exactly beat for beat in line with the original story, I was saying that if he ONLY wants the original experience then to skip the new added sidequests and just do the main quest stuff. Also a vast majority of JRPGs are bloated fetch quests and grind fests... this game is better in terms of rich content than any of those games. Even just walking around and listening to the NPCs talk shows they put more love into even that than most JRPGs put into their entire games. I'd argue that 90s JRPGs are a dated concept that only hold a spot in some peoples hearts for nostalgic value. I loved them as a kid ... wouldn't touch them now... they're boring as shit.

@Larrysweet... opinions and stuff.

lucian2291886d ago

it's only 10% when it comes to the timeline; not the content lore and etc, get it right

MeteorPanda1886d ago

it added the spinoffs into the main game which chronologically made sense to do so?

DafunkyRebel1886d ago

All parts will be done by 2024 at the latest. Part 1 took so long because they had to remade the assets from the PS3 version and updated it for PS4. Since they don’t have to do that for part 2 and 3 they could easily just spend a year on one game and release them consecutively

Mr_Writer851886d ago

@reblejoe

You hope. Yes alot of the work has been done, and didn't this first part also have issues where another developer was making it but SE hated it, scrapped it and brought it in house?

But think 2024 is best case.

It will depend on how many episodes and how beefey each one is. Will they carve the story up more and add in a load of new stuff?

Or will the next game really push the story along?

I mean the first part has a clear cut off, Midgar in the original felt like it's own game.

But then the open world kicked in

Part 2 will obviously focus on the Cloud and Tifa back story. Mount Condor, possibly introduce Yuffie and Vincent?

At a guess I'd say the end of Cosmo Canyon as the cut off, although I think Aeriths death would be the better fit.

smashman981886d ago

Ff7 r is not a remake and remake in this sense is nomura being nomura that's all I can say on that front.

1886d ago
cangri17881886d ago

Everything essential of the original is there bro, it's how it happens that changes and mostly in a good way that makes more sense than it did originally, examples: how Heidegger was watching Avalanche get in the sector 5 reactor and planning to launch the Air Buster, how Aerith decided to save Marlene in exchange of getting kidnapped by Shinra, how Cloud and co got in the Shinra Building, etc.

wwinterj1886d ago

I mean they have never kept it a secret that this is a multi part project, each entry is like a full game and they will be adding new content. This is still a remake not a remaster as some folk wanted it to be. Releasing it all at once would take well over a decade and would be a massive undertaking with what they are doing here. Folk can always wait until the project is done to buy them though but some folk are never happy no matter what so meh.

-Foxtrot1887d ago

I really hope when this is finished and they move onto Final Fantasy VIII or IX they just do the game as it is, not adding any filler crap which feels like it's just there to stretch the game out.

Developing the Orphanage twist before it happens in FF VIII or giving us more clues about the Angel of Death in FF IX sure but not pointless side quests or new characters when you didn't need to.

meka26111887d ago

They won't. I think the main problem with creators going back to old stories is that they might not be fans of that story. I've played through ff7 classic a minimum of 20 times, but Nomura has maybe played it once. So he decided that I never liked that, but he doesn't realize the fans did.

1886d ago
Harkins17211887d ago

That's exactly why it's optional content. No way in hell 8 or 9 would get the treatment 7 is getting anyway.

Trunkz1886d ago

You are nuts @-Foxtrot, they need to make FFVI for PS5 because the story, the characters, everything about that game is just awesome and imo better than VII, it's the one title that deserves to be a "remake" next.

AsunaYuukiTheFlash1886d ago

They wont remake FF8 or 9 because its not as popular as FF7.

smashman981886d ago

Calling anything in ff7 filler crap is fully incorrect. This isn't a remake. This is a brand new game. Nomura just called it remake because we'll I can't say why lol. Because spoilers

Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Cyberpunk 2077 lead a rush of AAA Switch 2 ports

Big publishers who haven’t been able to bring their biggest multiplatform games to the Nintendo Switch due to its relative lack of processing power are racing to release ports of these titles on the more powerful Switch 2.

_SilverHawk_71d ago (Edited 71d ago )

After seeing the performance and quality of the games being inferior on switch 2 I'm curious to see the sales when released for switch 2 because those games are available now at discounted prices on pc handhelds and consoles with versions of those games far superior to what was shown on switch 2. Im wondering if millions of gamers will buy inferior versions of older games for switch 2 when they have better avenues of experiencing multiplatform games in way better quality

franwex71d ago

Yes. The answer to your question is yes.

To us those are inferior versions. To the people who Nintendo is marketing the switch 2, they are not. They don’t have other gaming consoles or gaming pcs. They have phones/tablets, maybe a work laptop.

Not sure if they will sell those versions for $70 or $80. But at $40 it is possible that they will sell well.

andy8571d ago

It will. Isn't a chance on this planet its going to Xbox. Switch gamers buy games that's why it's on there, only wasnt already because it couldnt run it. Xbox players aren't interested in these types of games, and the fact they'd have to make 2 new console versions compared to 1 on Switch. Isn't worth it

Terry_B71d ago

Great. The Switch 2 can play Playstation 4 games released 5 years ago.

Obscure_Observer71d ago

It will also run current gen games like Split Fiction, Star Wars: Outlaws and the upcoming Borderlands 4, to name a few.

gold_drake71d ago

we dont know what they're gonna have to do to downgrade that tho.

all of these games are demanding titles.

especially outlaw and bdl 4

ThePacemaker71d ago

gold_drake71d ago (Edited 71d ago )

that was my thought too, they made a huge deal about the new performanboost when we had this sorta thing with x1 and ps4 already.

Obscure_Observer71d ago

Console features 4K resolution up to 120fps. Plus DLSS and Ray Tracing support confirmed by Nintendo.

I think it will be more on par with the Xbox Series S rather than the PS4 Pro.

CrashMania71d ago

Will have to see I guess, most of the games they showed were cross gen and ran on PS4 and base X1, elden ring looked a bit rough if that was in game. Borderlands 4 doesn't look like much more graphically impressive than 3 to me, but as we've seen with switch 1 ports there'll probably have to be compromises for current gen games.

MDTunkown71d ago

Every multiplat is released on Xbox series S and switch 2 is around its strength but with newer hardware and better dlss and vrr so it probably will have better performance than S

CrashMania71d ago

@MD I think it's a pipedream, but I'd love to be proven wrong and would find it funny if it could somehow outperform the S. But i've not seen anything from the leaked specs or otherwise that suggests it's around series S level, more around PS4 and PS4 Pro level, which is to be expected from a handheld device, I think it has more RAM than the S though?

MDTunkown71d ago

@Crash it has more memory than series s and memory seems to be the main problem with series s. Now thinking about it, it’s quite interesting that MS decided to go with 8gb of ram while one X already had 12gb of ram.

darthv7270d ago (Edited 70d ago )

@md, ms has the opportunity to use ssd space as a memory cache but have not implemented it. It could help alleviate the memory issues devs say about the SS.

This is something MS has years of experience with in their OS division. Virtual memory. Switch 2 has 256gb of storage but they never gave specs on cpu/GPU or ram... some are saying that 256gb is shared with system ram. And it could be dynamic too.

Square Enix Already "Hard At Work" On Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3

Development on the next game in the Final Fantasy 7 Remake trilogy might be further ahead than we thought. In a video discussing the series, the project leads say they are "hard at work" on the finale, right after launching Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth.

This comment was made by Remake and Rebirth director Tetsuya Nomura, who says that he and the scenario writer Kazushige Nojima are already working on the next game. Better yet, composer Nobuo Uematsu says that he'd be "honoured" to return for the finale, despite previously fearing that he doesn't have the "strength" for another game.

While I'd guess they're probably not going to do much else about it at this point, just because they're working on the sequel doesn't mean they can't have someone working on the visual issues for Rebirth. Likewise, it also doesn't mean they're not working on a DLC for it either.
Either way, I'd put money on it that they'll update the game for PS5 Pro.

Sweet....and hopefully can actually answer all the wtfs rather than giving us more questions that has been happening in these games lol. And I hope they just end the game properly instead of trying to milk VII even more. I'd very much like to see remakes of other FF titles on the same level.

God I hope this is it for VII

They’ve milked it far too much over the years, I mean Wikipedia has its own VII specific page because there’s so much media for it

It’s time for other FF games to get some love

gold_drake437d ago

im all for it, remake and rebirth were fantastic, especially rebirth, my god wat a brilliant game.

i mean, we had 16 and 14 still be a thing.
and 9 is getting a remake too, apparently

FinalFantasyFanatic437d ago

As much as I love FF7, they have really milked it to death, 2 compilations of FF7 which includes novels, games, mobile games, movies and animation...

They really need to put more effort into newer FF games.

-Foxtrot437d ago

@FinalFantasyFanatic

Yeah I mean look at it man, why does anyone want it milked even more when other FF games are starving for attention.

Well when you have Tetsuya Nomura hands on something, that is what you get. Whether you like it or not that's another thing.
I don't think they should make remakes like this anymore, and they won't that's what they said also. It takes too long and it just fragments the game too much for my taste. And i'd prefer a more 1 to 1 remake with maybe a slightly smaller budget so that it would actually be made in a reasonable time rather than these 10+ year projects.

gold_drake437d ago

nomura doesnt ely that much of a role in the trilogy, its Nojima u need to blame ha.

as for the og, there are mods u can use for that.

we'll never get an updated og game. it would take them years to finish it, even if its 1:1

fr0sty437d ago (Edited 437d ago )

nobody will buy a 1:1 remake, they already know what is going to happen exactly... and you can't properly remake a 20+ year old game 1:1 anyway, so much needs to be done to bring it to modern standards, that you have to change some things.

Michiel1989437d ago

@frosty that's the same thing the execs at blizzard said about WoW classic and here we are. You think you do, but you don't

dumahim437d ago

They did a Remaster for Crisis Core, which seemed near impossible due to a licensing issue not too long ago. I wouldn't be surprised if they do the same for Dirge of Cerberus before part 3.

I do worry what they'll do with part 3 though. They're not just going to abandon the nonsense. Rebirth was like 98% fantastic, but those whispers moments and their take on what is one of the most iconic scenes in video games ever just upsets me.

80 hours into rebirth and loving it. Bring it on Square.

gold_drake437d ago

i had 118h at the end. with everything done minues the queens blood stuff. and i absolutely loved every minute of it

Hofstaderman437d ago

I just want to say bugger mog house level 6. Will return to that later

Shiro173436d ago

Only one thing I hated it and it was the relic hunt for the sand spot next to the flying saucer. I hated that mini game for the relic. Killing those cactus with Aerith was annoying.

fr0sty437d ago

I like the remakes better than the original that I grew up playing back in the 90s... they are doing it right. And that soundtrack... I still jam the Gongaga theme all the time.
