FFVIIR Switch 2

For years we've enjoyed the privilege of dismissing all criticism of FFVIIR by claiming anyone criticizing it is a sour grapes Switch owner who hasn't played it. Once FFVIIR comes to Switch 2, will we have to accept criticisms of the game are valid, or will we find a new strawman to continue shutting them down on sight?

Where have you been? Now that Rebirth is out its fine to shit on Remake. Almost everyone has been tearing it apart because of the improvements Rebirth brought. Basically every criticism against Remake has been vindicated even by the fans. The critics were right all along. It will be interesting to see if the same happens to Rebirth when part 3 comes out.

SE were disappointed with Rebirth's sales, so part 3 will be made as fast and cheap as possible. I am confident that Rebirth will remain the trilogies high point when it's done.
There will still be a slew of FF7 media in the pipeline to look forward to. They have already confirmed the milking will continue. Kitase would like to make more FF7 movies, games and even a TV show.

Anyone who said ff7 would be milked forever has also been vindicated

lets make ff7 even less of a game than it was in the first place

Wow a cornerstone of the PlayStation library was garbage all along? No way?

Tendie Jimbo talking to himself again, bright and early. Sad life.

Aren't you 38? That's very depressing.
Also it's not even morning anymore, you call this early? At your age you should have a job to go to

They took a 30 hour game and are making it 250 hours long. There's objectively more game than before.

I wonder why this boogeyman character never really took off in quite the same way that other FF namefags did

Lore was too inconsistent. And whenever anyone tried to explain it, it became clear it was one guy with a vendetta with some rando from another site over nothing. It's a personal schizo fued that lacks wider appeal.

It's already out on PC as far as criticism are concerned desu

So now you make your own threads after not getting the attention you wanted. Too you long enough.

I was really hoping that when Remake came to PC all criticism would disappear, like with Death Stranding. But it kept happening, so the tendies became a convenient group to pin all the blame on.

after not getting the attention you wanted

When have you ever let me down? In fact I was getting attention even when I wasn't here.

I used to treat PCfags the same way I started treating switch owners. I said they would all become fans once they had their hands on the game. But the PCfags let me down and criticized the game even harder than the Snoys

Too you long enough

Calm down

I'm surprised this port didn't get much traction, not from fans nor from shit posters, is it that forgettable? I'm looking forward to it, always thought the combat seemed fun.

Most threads are about the girls and shipping arguments. In all the years since its release nobody has ever come up with a valid criticism of it. The combat is also fire especially if you like particle effects.

Remake is the Ocarina of Time moment for Final Fantasy. Criticizing it now is the equivalent of critiquing OoT now.

Remake is pretty linear and the new story stuff is lame, but is carried by the visuals and the combat system. Rebirth is much better but to its detriment is filled with bad content that didn't even need to be in the game in the first place.

cool, I'm going to get it for sure then, never played the original tho

Once Remake and Rebirth are both on the Switch 2 we won't see shitposts like this anymore:

or will we find a new strawman to continue shutting them down on sight?

Stop being such a passive agressive cuck, its a game, it cant hurt you

they're not going to buy it because it will be on game key cart, you can just laugh and deflect by going

game key cart lol

yeah, because it will look like ass on the switch

Where have you been? You should have been saying this to all the tendie strawman posters in 7R threads from the past 3 years

Hey look, a new poster just joined the thread

Rent free, faggot.

It's been 25 years nintendie, get over it

Now that Rebirth is out its fine to shit on Remake. Almost everyone has been tearing it apart because of the improvements Rebirth brought.

But how do you avoid the fact that you ought to play Remake before Rebirth? And Remake is a fucking slog to play through, so it's effectively a slight against Rebirth anyway.

Dunno why you are replying to yourself but people liked the combat, not how linear remake was.

sometimes the game is just mid
why do you need to take it as a personal insult?

NTA but I could see people jumping straight to part 3 and maybe play the others later. Some people even do that for Yakuza and Trails games

What's with this persecution complex?

NTA but I could see people jumping straight to part 3 and maybe play the others later.

But that's fucking retarded.

1 minute apart

Insecure.

Heh, some do, and ff7 story isn't that complex, and not many has enough patient to play 2 long games one after another

and not many has enough patient to play 2 long games one after another

Which is one of the many flaws of Remake/Rebirth. But then people will make any excuse under the sun when it turns out Rebirth's sales or player counts are lagging behind.

Dunno never cared about numbers, some may wait for the full trilogy or are still stuck in Remake.

Just ignore him bro
hehe

People moved on

Because he's a falseflagging tendie projecting.

Pretty easy to spot with his passive agressive shit. Like when anti men roastie larp as a rapist guy kek

Everyone is ignoring him aside from us. We're giving him lots of attention.

Kitase and Nomura said Rebirth was the perfect place for new players to start.

some may wait for the full trilogy or are still stuck in Remake.

I'm not very interested in these remakes at all. They just appear to be super bloated to me. If I wanted to replay the original, I could and have just replayed the original. But if they wanted to make a legitimate spinoff or sequel, then why the fuck did they not just do that? Why did they do this super fucking weird remake / pseudosequel with all kinds of compilation series stuff shoved inside of it?

Anyhow. If I ever do end up playing it, which I might do, it will be after the inevitable remake-remake of the full remake is out. When the last part is finally out for the PS6 or PS7. There is no way they won't remake the first part to reach parity with the last part.

Kitase and Nomura said Rebirth was the perfect place for new players to start.

And they're retards.
Or rather they're being disingenuous and spouting retarded claims.

I've been wondering that every time I open a 7R thread to see half of it is taken up by screaming about tendies

thank you for agreeing the game is mid

Same but with ffbros. What's with the rent free? You have plenty of jrpgs

From the looks of it that isn't going to change anytime soon

A very insecure fanbase

You'd be surprised to learn he's halfway close to being a woman without the need to transition.

still crying and sperging over ff fags

Insecure uh.

You'll find that the overwhelming majority of shitposting in non-Nintendo game threads come from Nintendo fanboys and that it disappears the moment they can play them.

Even just talking about final fantasy make them screech.

My hope is once Remake is out on Switch 2 we'll never see another criticism of it here again. I was hoping that would happen once it came to PC but it didn't. That's part of the reason we started blaming the critical posts on switch owners.

Tfw they have been called out lately in a lot of threads

Based. Also fuck the jannies for closing non tendie threads

Everyone ignores him and doesn't give him any attention. Aside from us. I don't think we've ever failed to give him all the attention he wants.

It's already bad enough when I see you shilling games I don't care about. Makes sense since Nintendo is my childhood.

Morning Jimbo. You late today.

Does what other people think in this autistic korean basket weaving forum affect you that much?

You late today.

Your poor English reminds me of a poster who was here earlier.

This forum shit is dying, it's just Marketers and shitposters now.

he's been posting daily about FF7 Remake ever since the game was released in 2020

fgeeg.png - 454x564, 412.37K

Keep it coming, friend. There's so many of you today and they're all failing to ignore me.

Nintendo like others is just a company, it only cares about money

This thread is schizo city holy shit

They are doing a favor to you 43 years old zeldasister

7R fans are losing it. They really don't want to face a world where someone could criticize 7R without them deflecting with tendie accusations.

There's that inconsistent lore I heard about

Maybe, but they were my childhood. It's why I need others to acknowledge it. It feels wrong when people talk about other fotm over the games I love
I'm 40
Even so these threads make me remember my youth when it was my ips vs other ips. I can't stand seeing Aerith threads, or a fotm waifu thread, over Zelda threads. Sure I see Midna and others but I always saw Zelda as a part of me.

Not even a midnafag but what's wrong with that? Midna was at least funny while Zelda was always too bland

I'm reading this falseflag and I think you might be right
I don't know why Remakefags decided to start a fight with Nintendo fans, but its clear they have some issues with them

Pretty sure that anon is parodying the obvious op falseflagging

...The fuck is wrong with Zeldafags

Nah, the whole thread is the OP sockpuppeting. He's been doing it for 5 years now

I think they looked at the success of BOTW and just got bitter and started complaining about Nintendo fans ever since. Don't underestimate how insecure FF fans are. Seeing other games sell well or win awards gets under their skin. They also started a fight with Metaphor for no reason. They just seem to lash out at anything non-FF. That new French turn based RPG is still impossible to discuss here because 7R fans immediately shit up the threads.

Switches memory is only 254GB and Demake takes up 100GB of memory. better to not download this trash at all.

Unless your talking about story and characters because part 1 start out fucking terrible and part 2 has even worse writing.
Noone can pretend the cringe story in part 2 was any better. in fact it's the final nail in the coffin that proves all the horrible fanfic writing changes didn't pay off and they had no clue what they were doing with this entire project.

Generalizing with ffbros

Either you are the op or you wanted a fight from the beginning

No the Zelda post is real
They're crazy and that post proves it

Nintentroon trying ff vs expedition33 now

horrible fanfic writing

Even though I know what you mean by this I am willing to now begin a pedantic 5 hour argument based on the fact that Nojima was the writer for these games, making them officially not fanfiction

Actually that part is true if you've seen those threads

They never forgave everyone looking at FF in the past even though FFfags never gave a fuck about them.
It's also a way to avoid comparisons with way more popular ips

forced walking segments

more game

The post that shitter shattered 7fags and 13fag.

I think they feel threatened by the sight of anyone enjoying any turn based game, as if people enjoying turn based is a threat to their enjoyment of the combat in remake.

It's a way to derail those threads. I remember one avatarfagging as metaphor shitting on the game. Notice how only Pokemon, FE and Xenoblade get conveniently spared while other jrpgs get forced to fight between them

What are the Intergrade changes?

Stop projecting your mental illness, OP

Everyone is wise to his passive aggressive shitstirring by now. He's been doing this for 5 years.

FF7R has the gameplay density of a DVD movie with a menu.

Are you just going to pretend VIIR threads haven't been flooded with posts about tendies for the past few months? If not years?

Nobody is denying that

Does it upset you that much people can like the remake and turn based games?

Graphical + optional end game battle simulator challenges

You were called out in

Etc etc threads. It's your fault you start shitposting every fucking non nintendo thread.

No? I'm saying the opposite. I don't know why they can't let people enjoy both. The 7R fans shitposting in Ex33 threads depress me.

It has more mechanics than most games and its better than the og

Desperate flamewarring, anon. Find a healthy hobby

The trick isn't to lie. It's to be honest.
Simply point out the shitty behavior and mindset of VIIR fans here and sit back and watch them go nuts as they try to defend it or deflect. Or to pretend it never happened.
I think the secret to my success is not being dishonest. It's the honesty that really stings. Holding up a mirror to the worst of the fanbase and watching them shriek at what they see.

Jesus, you really are a woman trying to cause drama between different fandoms
Good think you are already sterile

I think anyone attempting to deflect criticism on 7R threads by crying about tendies is really sad. Do you?

This.
Actually, a ff7 fan raped me. Of course, I want to be ally of games as soon as I'm sure they sold well

Your anger is peeking through the mask anon. Deep breath and try again. Take it from me, I'm a pro.

This is the most bitter femanon thread ever

Nah, part 3 wont have its scope reduced. Also rebirth sales should be around 5 mil now, despite the slow start it got a bump during holiday season and the PC version exceeded expectations. It's fine.

Nobody is going to deny this

Just NSP things

it has fake mechanics that are superficial and don't function properly hence why the combat needed to be completely redone for part 2.
the actual gameplay is few and far between 90% of it is walking sim shit, cringe cutscenes and other scripted bullshit.

Probably some granny triggered at Tifa thread

The port didnt get much traction because it doesnt even have a release date and frankly I think at this point most people that wanted to play it, played it in some manner - PS4, PS5, PC, steamdeck, etc.

That being said, if you havent played it: its a great game with some obvious flaws. the strenghts are definitely its gameplay, great cutscenes and fleshed out characters (if you dont mind anime mannerisms, you'll love them). the weak points are mainly side content and the obvious padding in places.

They already have the assets made and the gameplay locked down so we can expect part 2 in late 2021, or early 2022 at the VERY latest. And part 3 will be even faster so probably 2023.

Lore was too inconsistent.

And it's getting worse.
Thankfully

Definitely

Holy kek it really is that zeldagranny selfinsert

The port didnt get much traction because it doesnt even have a release date

It's also a game that's been out there for 5 years already. Remake part 1 didn't perform badly, so I imagine a majority of those who wanted to play it already have by now.

there are still people who don't know 90% of all 7r bait threads are NightSkyPrince replying to himself

Why are we still doing this

The problem is that the well has been so poisoned that you have to spend 180 characters putting out disclaimers before you can even get into the meat of praise or criticism. I've been critical of both Remake and Rebirth. I've praised them where I felt it was due and explained why, just as I've criticized where I felt was necessary but explained why. What's more I think it's good practice to use examples from other games when discussing where the Remake series fucked up to show a practical application of things you want to see rather than some vague hypothetical.

This is a very frustrating way to post. Because if you don't do it, inevitably, some shitposting dipshit will just appear from the aether and employ the DmC Donte White Hair defense

you just wanted a 1:1 Remake

old good new bad

You're just mad it's not turn based

The FF7 Remake series rests in an extremely annoying 50:50 middle ground where it's too good to just write it off as a failure but it also fucks up too much to celebrate it.

I dont know who that is but millennials midlife crisis is the reason why the board sucks so much

He likes to cause confusion by throwing in random shit like "it's a zelda fan / its someone mad about tifa" or whatever to throw people off the scent - as if he wasn't exposed already years ago.

If you don't start and end your post criticizing remake with a disclaimer that you still love the game in spite of the nitpick you're raising, we'll know you're just a seething tendie who hasn't even played it

Don't care about your feelings tendie/op, you hide worse than the ubisoft shills.

So you think he's lying about the tendie accusations... while you make a tendie accusation

Nobody who criticizes Remake has played it. End of story.

Tendies aren't gamers, they're barely human beings so we don't have to accept anything they say about FF7 remake.

I played Remake and Rebirth to completion. I have a lot of criticisms for both games both as a fan of OG and as someone who takes those games on their own merits.

Looks like Remake threads are going to continue to be a place to post about tendies for a while yet

We are too transparent now nintendobro....mhfags already hate us enough

You haven't played either, Tendie. But eventually you will and you can stop crying.

The guy who OP was making fun of seems to have shown up to do his thing but completely unironically

CRITICISM!

stop overthinking, just like re6 you either love it or hate it, what's the autistic debate here?

Should be called Final Fantasy 7: Rewrite

Every single scene has been altered so far beyond the scope of the original that the impact is completely dead, no longer can a plot point simply be a terrorist bombing gone wrong, now it has to be Anon Babble-friendly niggers-did-nothing-wrong no-blood fairies and magic. Oh, and ugly mogs.

I feel duty bound to side with the consolewar shitposter because he's on 7Rs side.

First NSP thread huh?

They are very mentally ill

This
Every single one of them

That's a Japan modern problem, every villain (unless he is too ugly) must be misunderstood/redeemed now. It's also a nip fragile ego now

NOOOOO IF I LIKE AN EVIL CHARACTER I AM EVIL TOO!!!

I think someone posted this about some gacha, about not being able to make real villains for gacha and instead they are forced to make them good.

Can't wait for ff9R

That's the problem there are certain parts of 7R that I do genuinely like. Just as there are parts of 7R that I fucking hate. And it's important to discuss why a game is good or bad rather than just saying "it's shit" or "it's GOTY." It's not like Sonic 06 where the game is so fundamentally broken that any good decision is outweighed by 4 or 5 bad ones.

be5.png - 1436x1082, 279.08K

Why can't you just enjoy the good and ignore the bad and try your best to stamp out anyone who mentions the bad? I've never understood why people can't just enjoy things instead of being so bitter and focus on the negative. Just let it go. No game is perfect and you're a retard if you criticize a game for being less than perfect.

Those threads aren't going to be pretty either I suspect.

I do? I even said I give credit where it's due. That doesn't mean that I don't talk shit about the parts I didn't like, especially if I don't see the reason why it's there. Why is one allowed and the other isn't?

Some of us have been wondering that for a long time. But we underestimated the insecurity of the FF fanbase. Don't forget, these are the same people who are determined to not allow anyone to enjoy Expedition 33.

Why do you want it? Didn't you listen to all the people talk about all of the faggotry blackness sweetbaby bullshit?

Only because every battle is a slow-grind, and there's a shitload of story padding not in the original while NOT adding to the overall experience of the original. And there is no save-carry-over, so you start over while losing all of your gains from the first one.

I liked Remake and Rebirth, but I think anyone with criticisms of them should be welcome to express them. Unfortunately that mindbreaks overdefensive types who need to create strawmen and boogeymen and conspiracy theories and all kinds of schizo shit just to escape the possibility that someone played these games and had a criticism of them.

because of the improvements

Because that's what gamers asked for: more black people, more fags, and more slow-grind battles while still leaving out Cloud's mako eyes and skipping over Wutai.

Don't make excuses. You don't speak for the majority. That's why sales were disappointing.

Abib

Ever letting a ff thread alone

Lmao

Translation: "I'm the one shitposting FF and Expedition 33 threads and I want both groups to fight"

I think what's frustrating about it is they're so hyper vigilant to stay ahead of TORtanicfags that they end up defending shit that makes no sense.

One of the criticisms with Remake is the padding. We spend too much time doing nonsensical bullshit and spinning our wheels because we have to extend a 5 hour segment of game into 40. A good example being the Sector 7 Plate section. The party learns from Corneo that Shinra is planning on dropping the Sector 7 plate onto the slums to get rid of Avalanche once and for all. This is a genuinely horrifying turn of events that requires everyone to get to Sector 7 as soon as possible. In OG the run to Sector 7 takes like 20 minutes. The sewers are around 3 screens and the Train Graveyard is like 2 screens. But Remake needs to fill time. So we get sections where Tifa and Aerith are endearing to one another. And another section where we solve a ghost mystery. And it takes so long that I genuinely forgot that "oh shit everyone is going to die in a few minutes." You can see Sector 7 on fire in the distance at one but you're still dealing with fucking ghosts. Because 7R needs to pad this shit out, the urgency of why you're going to Sector 7 in the first place ends up getting diluted until it picks up again after you arrive. And just... why? The ghost mystery isn't even important, it doesn't come up again because the ghosts are wholly different from the Time Jannies.

You don't have to consider this a deal breaker for why you might enjoy Remake and for the record I don't. But you gotta understand how someone could or how it's representative of how the padding drags this game down. And honestly, this one thing is something I would consider minor in the grand scheme of things. There's way more glaring issues. I just bring it up because criticism of the Remake series isn't just some shitty fox and grapes situation. People who were looking forward to this games can have legitimate problems with it

You say that but also defend the posters talking about tendies in every 7R thread. Curious.

Exp33 skipped switch

Of fucking course

OP vindicated again

You are the one saying it's okay to generalize and accuse an entire group while acting defensive when others do the same with you
Like they said, your problem is that you are even more obvious than Ubisoft when they "leak" their games here. Actually I can predict you will try the same shit with RE9, new dd2 expansion or any other game that makes you mad

No, you (the op) are just being called out again.

You have made a fatal error in your post. It's not that they don't understand people not liking the padding. They do. They understand it perfectly well. That's why they don't talk about how they enjoyed the padding, or anything else you might criticize about these games.
Traditionally, if someone says something about a game you like is shit, you'd disagree and say why you liked it. But they don't want to acknowledge the bad parts at all. That's why you get "shut up tendie, you didn't play the game" instead of "actually I like the sector 7 plate section because..."

And the twist is it just makes the critics look right, because there's no counterpoint.

Is he the schizo spamming buy an ad?

OP is making fun of the posters who deflect criticism with consolewar shitposting. By consolewar shitflinging, you prove his point. Now throw another nintendie accusation around to double down. You're incapable of anything else.

His

Nobody falls for your desperate attempt at flamewar against another game you hate.

Why would I hate Expedition 33? It's not out yet

But they don't want to acknowledge the bad parts at all

? I talked with other anons about shits like

Time jannies

Too many minigames

Sephimeme

Not my fault the jannie shuts down the good threads.
I can at least admit the parts I liked, like, did you even like any part of the game? I only see you crying about some twirling mustache villains

7rfags attack all turn based games

Except Pokemon, FE and Xenoblade

Curious

Insider here. Part 3 will not only include the conclusion to the current story, but also a "new game plus" with a different timeline where we get to play the entirety of the game with the pace of the OG game and with some changes in the story (We get to save Wedge and Jessie)

What are you talking about? I liked the game more than you. The whispers didn't bother me, and neither did the minigames. I'm just saying that there are overdefensive fans who refuse to let others talk about what they disliked and deflect with anything they can rather than respond to the points made.
Very strange reply, but maybe it's my fault for not being clear I liked the game at the start or end of my post.

FFfags spent their days jumping at shadows

Kek

Thanks :)

The truth is there are no JRPGfags here because jrpgs make them feel old. Nowadays is easier to just get mad or nitpick anything to trash at games, this is why you only see the same dead generals with the same 10 autistics trying to keep the threads alive for pure ego boost or the same ragebait threads "hey check out my youtube channel to see how mad I am at FF/New tekken patch/etc"

7Rchad here, waiting for COE33 and THL

No one ever asked for FF7 to be cut into multiple parts and then bloated into with so much additional content that the original parts ends up but a minority of the final product for each part.
Why do people respect this?

NTA but let me talk about parts I liked. Seriously.

It's less present in Remake but mostly in Rebirth, the inter party relationships are way better. In OG Barret talks to Cloud. Yuffie talks to Cloud. Yuffie and Barret rarely speak to each other. In Rebirth there's way more opportunities for cast members to speak to each other. Barret gets to be a grumpy big brother to Yuffie. Aerith gets to talk about time shit to Nanaki. Barret throws more and more potshots at Cait Sith. Tifa expresses her anxieties to Aerith. Barret encourages Tifa to use her anxiety to fuel her hatred towards Shinra. All of this is good and does more to show the party as a family. It's not just Cloud and his hanger ons.

The shit about the Junon Republic was genuinely nice to learn about. I was always curious of how Shinra took over the world, especially since it seemingly happened so unbelievably fast. And it turns out they did it by usurping another regime that was there before. And that's cool. Why does most of the world look like shit? Because Shinra didn't maintain the infrastructure between areas they didn't care about. And they absorb so many resources that the people who live there can barely survive much less maintain the roads. That's absolutely in line with how we see Shinra operate and it's also something criticized by Rufus who's more level headed and pragmatic than his psycho father. I think Rufus in general is good in the Remake series.

There's good to be found and I'm willing to give 7R it's flowers when I feel it deserves it.

I don't care about this pajeet, it's what I see, nobody talks about other games and as soon as some get the focus you get a dedicated schizo calling you a shill.

pajeet

He's white

I feel like the combat is great but they are obviously tied up with the FF7 plot/cast. I wouldn't mind them recycling this combat for a new game or new ip.

3 parts

Remake can easily remove 4 chapters. In fact, there was nothing wrong if the game was just 20 hours long. Its them wanting to sell 3 60 hours games. Luckily, I can see them tired of this shit and just make the next remake less ambitious, if leakers words about FF9R are to be trusted.
I'm also the weird one against remakes of games that dont need them. For example, I don't see why RE5 would need a remake but I wouldn't mind a revamp of RECV and Zero.
Them going crazy with 8 would have been kino since they can have more freedom with 8

I don't care about this pajeet

Now that you mention it, he looks like a pajeet, indeed.

I agree with all this, especially the character interactions. It's a common problem in japanese games and anime that the world revolves around the MC and nobody says anything to anyone else. 7R fixes this really well.
This is why it's so easy to spot when a critical post is coming from a tendie who hasn't played the game. They don't talk about these improvements. They just repeat lies from baiting youtubers who also haven't played the game.
They'll shitpost about the "jannies" but if you ask them what they thought of the additions to the Gi lore they don't know what you're talking about. They haven't played the game and they're mad about it.

RE5 absolutely does not need a remake. I'm actually in the camp that RE4 didn't need a remake even if I overall enjoyed the game. At this point Capcom is doing it because everyone expects it and they'll make money from it.

Regarding pt3 I think it'll be less ambitious in the sense that they don't need to create much of the over world the way they did for Rebirth. They just need to fill in a few blanks and adjust reused assets for a wartime setting.

Classic FFs had that a lot

Secondary characters just say one phrase to remind you they still exist

They did a great job with Barret in remake

I'm actually in the camp that RE4 didn't need a remake even if I overall enjoyed the game.

Holy fucking shit this, even if the game was fun is not my priority. I would have liked a re 6 reboot with more Sherry and Jake and making Ustanak a Nemesis enemy instead of a scripted one

P3

Yep, I don't see them complicating their lives. The base is already there. Though maybe they would have made a part 4 combining AC and DoC (making it suck less)

Its completely impossible for someone to dislike something and later realize it wasnt as i was expecting, leading to me actually liking it.
Me being afraid that REmake 2 was gonna be too action to be a remake, but the realizing it was actually great at survival horror? Nah that never happened. Im actually still really angry and stubborn at it.

I wouldn't mind them recycling this combat for a new game or new ip.

It would have been way, way, way the fuck better. If FF7R never happened and we had straight up just gotten FF17 and FF18 already. With FF19 already being in development.

Though maybe they would have made a part 4 combining AC and DoC (making it suck less)

Can't see it happen. The team has been working on this single title for 12-13 years by the time it's finally finished. There's going to be FF7 fatigue if it's not there already. It's time for something new after the trilogy and they know it too.

I want to think ff17 is already being made with that in mind or at least a new ip
True. They also have the whole shipping war and they know they are going to get a lot of hate from the ship side that loses
Also team xeen got good reputation, they can carry 5,6 and 9 remakes

This was an argument I made when Remake was new. I never played 16. From what I understand, that game fell on its ass. But from the outside looking in, I had a begrudging respect for FF16. Because it had to succeed or fail entirely on its own terms. It didn't use a 25 year old legendary game as a shield. Because everyone already likes Cloud and will instantly award any game with him on the box extra points.

still no "you will never be an e-celeb" post

The problem I have with Resident Evil is a similar problem I have with FF7. Which is a refusal to move the fuck on from the core cast. The thing about the Raccoon City survivors is that they were regular people who had to survive extraordinary circumstances. You know... like survival horror. But because Capcom refuses to pass the torch to new characters, the Raccoon City Survivors are closer to Avengers. Leon went from barely holding on against zombies to Kung Fu fighting whole villages by himself. I wonder why the magic disappears the further away you get from REs 1 through 3.

And it's a similar case with FF7. Cloud has gone from someone who had to overcome his own insecurities to do something amazing to a quantum chess piece being fought over in an interdimensional afterlife feud between two time lords. Why hasn't Zack diffused into the Lifestream yet? And because everything must loop back into FF7 somehow, it means that there's no progression in this world. All of history now revolves around killing one guy.

Also team xeen got good reputation, they can carry 5,6 and 9 remakes

FF9 is already coming, will interesting to see what the approach they took on that one. We will likely see more of a combination of new games and reignite old titles. Might look towards a 6 remake or X-3 or expansions like this, along with games like FF17.

SE is posting a lot of ffix hints
Remake announcement soon? 7R part 3 for 2027 I guess

I always enjoyed Remake
Initially I was primed to hate it for not being a 1:1 remake but then the shitposting about the time jannie ghosts made it seem interesting enough to check out and from there I got hooked because it was fun to play
Still haven't played Rebirth and if I do, it would be on Switch 2 because the PC spec requirements are artificially high

Remake announcement soon?

Should be relatively close.

Romancing saga 2 remake was great, though I could understand them wanting a BIG remake for 6 I can't see them having that energy anymore. FF fans are also too old now and zoomers won't care much for old stories and not dating. Though RS2R graphics and style fits 6 semi anime style. They also owe 5 a remake.
With 10 they can just update it like crisis core, about x-3 kek, anything can happen after that 2.5
I trust 9R being just a smaller remake and turn based, most problems that game had was the slow combat and the dizzy cameras in every fucking fight.
Leaker also implied FFTR to be closer to a remake but who knows. Personally I would like a FFTA remaster since I loved that game a lot

Is there any event coming next month? I expected REZero remake or re9 announcement for Switch 2 event too, I wonder if microsoft or sony moneyhatted those announcements (I can see Persona 6 reveal for xbox event since they say they are making a new portable)

I don't want FF9 remade. And they can fuck off with their poor as fuck remasters too.
Just port the fucking game to keep it available and then leave it the fuck alone and go start developing NEW games instead.

You can play FF9 NOW!
Why the fuck do you need a remake? And why should they remake FF9 instead of making a NEW game?
I'm so fucking tired of a third of all """""new""""" products actually just being old products that I have already experienced. Especially since the broader quantity of new product has already shrunk and fallen off a cliff compared to the past. So to have a third of that already shrunken quantity of games, just be old games in new packaging, fucking sucks.

FF9 was already ported to new plataforms
Though imo I wish they ported other DQ games, no reason for dq8 to be trapped in ps2/3ds

They made Octopath games and new SaGa games are being made. Supposedly FF17 is being worked on from years ago

What's your idea of a game?
Something like Zelda OOT, with braindead puzzles, retarded enemies, slow movements, a desertic map, the framerate of a powerpoint presentation, tons of automatisms...?

And they fucked up the 3d models versus the backgrounds. They remastered it. Poorly. They didn't just port it.

Yes they're still making new games. But that doesn't change how all the remakes have also been made in place of actually new games.
There would have been even more new games had they not done the remakes.

I don't get why people always cite the new games being made whenever someone points out how something new could have been made in place of whatever remake is being talked about.

Switch 2 would not have been the right place. Hardware presentation overshadows the games, plus Nintendo logically wanted to shine a light on exclusives which this won't be.
Sony has consistently done State of Plays during May for the past years and there's SGF in June, those are possibilities.
But it's entirely possible Square decides to do its own event during the actual anniversary in July, in the same way they did for the Rebirth announcement.

That makes sense I guess. I read se gave them Bravely remaster announcement in exchange kek
Though I really expected Resident evil games revealed for switch 2

No new announcement for a year

Re5, rev1,2, 6 etc getting trademarked as upgrades (perfect for switch 2)

Oh well, next events will be interesting at least

I'm glad we all know the next time we see someone deflecting to post about tendies in 7R threads to call them out for their disingenuous shitposting

Oh well, next events will be interesting at least

Hopefully. Year is looking a bit stale, so some announcements would be nice.

Having not played it, I'm stuck between thinking it looks fun, and thinking they made all of the wrong decisions in terms of adapting the tone and story of FF7.
It really feels like the saturday morning cartoonised version of the original.
