Money. SE has been shitting the bed for years so they're gonna milk the one thing that might make them any money
>>
>>737043736
Because they took the he fan base for granted, and assumed they'd make a fuck ton exploiting that base
Serves square right
>>
Because they decided to expand on the original a lot, and they have investors to satisfy. A 15 year dev-cycle and a 500gb game release isn't the brightest idea.

>because it's a fucking (you)
thanks.

Remember when they actually wanted to make it a single coherent game, but possibly released in multiple parts, and then people *complained* about that and demanded it be turned into three different games instead?

It's your fault for this happening.

im beginning to understand why people have such a low opinion of JRPGS. This is just mind boggelingly stupid. Its really hard to feel any sympathy when bad things happen to these people, when the bad things only happen because of utter protagonist stupidity.

>>737043736
They lost the technology and don't know how to make games anymore
>>
>>737043836
do you actually make more money on this as opposed to one FF7 Remake that you keep porting? Because they are the only ones doing this type of remake. Everyone else makes it one game and SE complains about sales not hitting their targets.
>>
>>737043736
They had a good reason at the end of Remake with the "the unknown journey continues", but they ignored that and just followed the original games plot instead because they're creatively bankrupt hackfrauds.
>>
>>737044117
In the original it made sense, the remake is utter dogshit
>>
>>737043736
Nomura REALLY wanted to make his World of Versus Epic project, Kitase said "ok so do it in FFVII since sales are guaranteed with this one."
Sales were not, in fact, guaranteed.

Funniest part of Rebirth is when edgy Cloud ends that one Shinra soldiers life by launching him and cutting him open mid fall, and Barret and Tifa proceed to be shocked by this act of violence, despite the entire gang killing hundreds of these cunts during the game.

>>737043854
It didn't make enough money though. Every FF7remake side project they announced got cancelled or is in eos.
>>
>>737044582
theres a difference between being a sadist that enjoys killing than doing it in self defense
they are not surprised at the killing, its about Cloud acting unusually bloodthirsty, did you even pay attention to the cutscenes?

New content just dropped in EC, why aren't there threads about it?

Siren: Blood Curse did it before walking dead. I'm sure someone else did it before that too

they are literal villains that have killed so many innocent people just in the opening of hte fucking story and then act like they are good guys and some moral heroes on high ground. typical leftist slop.

I knew the games were shit as soon as I started seeing "I'm having a blast" posts about it on release. They even had the audacity to larp as boomers that claimed they played the OG on release and that the Refakes were miles better. Just atrocious.

I played FF7 in 90s. I bought FF7 Remake on release and had jar of weed to go with it and I had good time. I bought FF7 Rebirth on release and had jar of weed to go with it and I had good time again. I will buy the 3rd part on release and going to make sure I have jar of weed to go with it.

>>
>>737055562
Hey, I'm not saying FF6 or FF9 are bad. They just aren't as good as the better FFs 5, 7, 8 and 10. I wouldnt tell anyone to skips FF6 or FF9, I would just warn them of FF9's slooooow battle transistions and characters in battle taking forever to go from idle to executing the command. And of course I would warn them how both 6 and 9 lack in player agency compared to the better FFs
>>
>>737055808
>muh player agency
>in final fantasy
Might as well be comparing different varieties of onions
6 is also unironically the only game of the 5 with any narrative differences based on player choices given Shadow and the World of Ruin for that matter
>>
>>737055231
Funny how v's take on 6 / 7 changes over time depending on stereotypes about their respective fans.
>>
>>737056020
>narrative differences
Calm down. I'm talking about the gameplay. 5, 7, 8 and 10 have more customization and replay value. 6 has good story. Its gameplay is just not as good as the better FFs.

If FF6 is your favorite, good for you! I enjoyed it too. I just enjoyed the FFs I mentioned more. No need to get your panties in twist.

Isn't it the perfect remake people want? There should be more discussion about it
>>
>>737043736
>Why did these retards decide to stretch out 1 game into 3?
If we're looking on the bright side, they genuinely thought they could deliver a game that was worth releasing what was originally 1 game as 3 games, and that people would be hype about it because it's Final Fantasy fucking VII. Unfortunately, they gave it partly to Nomura, and Nomura has been bastardizing Final Fantasy since Kingdom Hearts. He needs to be removed from Final Fantasy, or reverted purely to a character designer.

If we're being realistic and looking on the bad side, they wanted to milk their remaining fans for all they were worth. And hey, it's working. Remake sold a bunch but Rebirth didn't sell anything except to the diehard fans who were always going to like it no matter what it was.

Unfortunately 7R killed off the last goodwill SE had. Nobody cares about FF7 now other than the hyperfixated autists whose obsession with the characters stops them from moving on.

Shut up retard

Wrong. It was good.

it should have been two games, not three but it absolutely could not have been one game.

I heard Cloud cried like a little bitch when the whore died.

We have threads about how shit 7R is
every
single
day.

This proves SE made the right choice. A straight remake wouldn't have been posted about at all.
>>
>>737043736
The real crime is the over reliance and prioitization of combat to the complete detriment of the rest of game.
The battles should load into a proper battle field like in the original game. That way you could design proper dungeons worth exploring, instead of running through giant empty linear corridors and locking every useful item away in the dumb ass combat simulators. Just look at the cruise ship with its ridiculous giant rooms designed to accommodate monster battles and having six or seven characters running through.
>>
>>737061097
That's like saying XV is good game because Barry made threads about it for 15 years.

That's not how that works, anon. It could have easily been one game if they simply removed all the bloat and checklists and minigames.
>>
>>737061436
Oh yeah. I forgot about that mess.
>>
>>737061513
In their minds that was never a possibility. It's why they said a remake of 6 would be much longer than 7. Because to them remakes are about expanding every aspect of the original.

>Why do drug dealers dilute their product?

It'll be okay anon. In heaven nobody will call 7R bad. Then we can finally be at ease.

This game had thirteen hours of cut scenes and all of it was garbage.
It was absolutely painful to get through. There is no way I'm going through that again.

>>
>>737061097
I wish it was more different. The reason I'm malding is because they set up an interesting situation in Remake, and then failed to deliver on that promise in Rebirth.
Rebirth is a cowardly game.
>>
>>737061097
Are all the threads ragebaiting then? Why not make threads of the OG instead?
>>
>>737061907
Aeris content was good.
>>
>>737062138
We occasionally do, and we have pretty decent discussion about it. Mostly boils down to who was in control, Sephiroth or Jenova.
>>
>>737062061
I also was excited to see the unknown journey become a wild ride once the whispers were destroyed and fate became uncertain, but when I played Rebirth and saw that didn't happen I realised that Rebirth did exactly what I was hoping for, even if it was the opposite of what I'd previously hoped. It was perfect.
>>
>>737062138
>ragebaiting
Why would it be ragebaiting? You'd only be ragebaited by people calling 7R shit if you were one of the few people autistic enough to like it. And those people are usually too busy in kingdom hearts threads.

>>737053914
I've imagined it every which way you can already, as is, HD-2D, 3D, loyal, expanded, the 90% of the story on the cutting room floor reintegrated, re-imagined, following sprite art, based on the SGI demo, everything including environments in Amano style etc. I'm 100% certain Square-Enix would rape it and also 100% certain I would buy it anyway. Maybe I would even start to enjoy my anger.

It's the Holy Grail. It could be made perfect and beautiful, moving beyond belief, but it won't happen and they won't even try.
>>
>>737062216
No. It wasn't.

>>737043736
>>
>>737062372
>I'm 100% certain Square-Enix would rape it
My opinion is that VI is already one of the lesser entries into Final Fantasy and that they game its fans imagine that it is does not actually reflect the game that it actually is when one plays it. VI is in a state where any remake would be better than the game that it is.
>>
>>737062291
What are you hoping for the third game?
>>
>>737062547
This is really disappointing. I was hoping they would cut the Scarlet/Tifa slap fight. It just seems like a strange reduction of two really powerful characters for the sake of leaning into a gendered cliché and a little too silly for me to find ‘funny’
>>
>>737062372
The problem is they would make it 6 games instead of 3. But I would probably buy it, too.
>>
>>737062547
Lazy slapfight
>>
>>737062547
That slap fight is pathetic, there's no energy behind it.
>>
>>737062372
If you disliked anything about a VI remake it would be your fault, not SEs, because you imagined the original wrong.

>>737044434
I'm playing 8 for the first time right now and it genuinely sucks. Might have the worst cast of characters of any JRPG I've ever played, the story is a literal nothing burger and the gameplay gimmick is cool but ruined by how unbelievably easy the game is. 8 is worse than 7 in every single way.

and it's literally the only reason why both Aoyama Misao(= Tifa) and Sakurazawa Kaori(= Scarlet) knockoffs were shoved into ff7 universe.

>>737059690
Nope.
>>
>>737061097
Because as we all know Resident Evil (2003) was utterly forgotten about the day it came out, hasn't been talked about for 20 years and isn't held as the golden standard for how to make a remake of a game.

Ok. What did you like about it? Everyone can call game shit but to make sure you are legit, tell me what you liked about it?

I'm gonna give Rebirth another playthrough and see if I'll like it this time. First time I did everything and started hating the game around the Junon area. This time I'll just play it like an action game on dynamic difficulty and ignore all the side content. Nothing is gonna fix the plot but maybe I'll have fun with the gameplay.

Oh, the guy who posted that is Jimbo. He's been on his crusade against FF7R since 2020 and he spends daily shitposting about it and posting copy pastas like the slapfight copypasta. He doesn't like to be acknowledged so I make him seethe by informing others of him.

>>
>>737064860
But you didn't explain. Making fun of that tweet isn't anti-7R posting. I'd call it anti-fag posting. The slap fight will probably be in remake like it was in EC. Your post makes no sense.

In the original you had the option to fight the Turks one final time and you still didn't fucking kill those bastard criminals. You win the final duel against the Turks and they walk away alive. Trash. And I hate how Rufus was revived in Advent Children. I just hate this shit about forgiving villains and criminals. The only villain that died in the original FF7 is Corneo if you do the Wutai sidequest and the only reason Corneo dies is he's a fat ugly bastard. For crying out loud not even Hojo dies in the original FF7 because Dirge revived him.

What Is The BA7RY Test?

Firstly, who is Barry? Barry is a XV fan who combs 4chan for posts criticizing XV to reply to. In his mind, every criticism of XV is wrong, no matter how big, small, reasonable or unreasonable. It's all wrong, and he will set you straight on that matter.
Unfortunately, FFVIIR has its own Barry, named BA7RY, who acts in the same way. He's hard to miss. Do you suspect he's ITT? Then apply the BA7RY test. It's simple!

Just ask him: "What would be a valid criticism of VIIR?"

Barry would never criticize XV, even slightly. And BA7RY will never criticize VIIR either. This simple test lets you know if you're talking to a reasonable person who is capable of discussion, or a wall of fanboy autism who will never give an inch and is only here to tell you that you're wrong wrong wrong!
If your anon replies reasonably, he passes the BA7RY test. If he immediately chimps out and starts screaming about boogymen, BINGO! That's a BA7RY! After all, Barry's favourite tactic was to call everyone Nathan. Because only one person ever called out Barry, right?
Try it yourself!

The original game had zero voice acting, pre-rendered backgrounds, and very rudimentary polygonal assets. It was far easier to tell a very long story with tons of enemies and locations. Even if square didn’t want to triple dip, they couldn’t have pulled it off at Remakes visual fidelity.

It also felt really bad to hear the dialogue spoken, the characters aren't that great and it worked better when the story moved fast and you just read the dialogue. Also all those anime mannerisms from Aerith and Tifa and weird reactions from Cloud all the time. Just embarassing man.

If these "retards" didn't do that, they would have spent 3 times the budget, barely sold any more than Remake did, and no one would be talking about it in 2026.

Instead the games are still relevant and they get to sell 3 full price games for massive profits.

Sounds like the retard is you.

I never cared much for the original and only managed to play it all the way through once as a teenager. I find the remakes entertaining because they clarify a lot of script / plot fuckups which made the original difficult to deal with, and I have no problem paying for them because the new visuals and music are great and I'm not insanely poor.

I can also understand why people who spent the last 25 years picking apart the original and probably coming to more nuanced conclusions than the remakes would be annoyed by them.

tl;dr the target audience for the remakes is people who never actually gave a shit about the original but played it once or absorbed it by osmosis over stream

I much prefer the new combat system to fast-forwarding through static ATB sequences.

The slap fight just doesn't make any sense. Tifa should body Scarlet in one hit. If you are okay with it, then you shouldn't be bitching about Peter Parker getting pinned by a refrigerator because it's the same inconsistent nonsense.

>>737071323
The entire remake trilogy will be forgotten after a month when it's finally done, doomed to only be discussed by the obsessive nohopers who cling to this IP due to an unhealthy attachment to the characters. The world will move on, but this dwindling group of autistic balding millennials will still insist the trilogy was a phenomenal success and continue discussing it like the shit movie that came out 20 years ago that nobody but them cares about.
tl;dr: The OG will continue to be a classic, the remake trilogy will be tossed on the garbage pile like all other compilation trash.
>>
>>737071492
True. I appreciate the honesty even if it's upsetting to accept.
>>
>>737071435
The point was that Scarlet slapped her so Tifa slaps her back.
Scarlet is a bitch that hides behind technology and weapons to kill people, and Tifa was so offended by being slapped that she just slaps her back harder.

It's supposed to be a funny lighthearted moment after so much heavy stuff with Cloud just went down and you almost saw Tifa be executed on live TV.
You people are such downers.

Not at all, since Peter Parker being overpowered by a fridge was used as an excuse to further the plot along and get MJ in danger.
If Tifa was capture because Scarlet slapped her hard and knocked her out, then you would have a point.

There's a difference between selling out and not blowing up your entire business over one project. A full 9 hour LotR trilogy in one movie would be the most expensive film ever made, inflation adjusted, and I can only imagine what the theater would smell like.

The Hobbit trilogy was just blatant cash grabbing and chink pandering.
>>
>>737071658
The point is the character's perceived power within the world becomes inconsistent. It also makes Tifa look like an idiot for humoring Scarlet that way, but I could say the same for the treatment of the secondary villains in general. In these japanese games everyone is always way too lenient with people that should be hated so much by the main cast that they try to kill them at every opportunity instead of letting them go or holding back.

It's not very heroic to beat down someone far weaker than you even if they are jerks. If the best Scarlet can do is slap Tifa and tell her to stop, it would've been weird if Tifa punched her and (probably) killed her.

There are moments for the hero to callously off some bad guy, but only if they are actively trying to murder you like in Raiders when Indy just shoots the sword guy. Scarlet had no power at that moment, so Tifa didn't take advantage of the situation to hit her full strength.

Every Final Fantasy thread is like the same ~20 people over and over again, and it has been this way for a very long time. Of these maybe ~20 people, there are just a small handful who account for most of the posts.

>If the best Scarlet can do is slap Tifa and tell her to stop, it would've been weird if Tifa punched her and (probably) killed her.
Scarlet is responsible for all the robots, mechs, and other weapons at Shinra. Every single death caused by any one of those is because of her, on top of her being outright shown to be an awful person besides that.

The original script is way too condensed. 20 hours per act is a pretty fair length. Which is about what the remakes are if you don't engage with any of the kill N monsters and fetch quest bullshit.

>>737043736
Good graphics take time. Also it makes more money than one time sale. Imagine how many times they can re-release and do editions of 3 different games + sell the full package with fixes that is a "must buy" even for the people who bought all 3 already.
Also it allows much more DLC and mtx stuff.

>GOTH DUDE WITH LONG HAIR AND MASAMUNE SO FUCKING COOL
>CHICK WITH BIG TITS HOLY SHIT
When it turned out it wasn't actually a BAD game, that was enough to make it a huge success. It was instrumental in making console gaming as big as it is today, as FF7 had enough elements that normies were interested in.
I used to talk about video games in the 8-bit and 16-bit eras with a few friends, but most people didn't play them (or admit to it). Mortal Kombat and NBA Jam were exceptions, not the rule.
I personally burned a few hundred discs for people in my high school and taught them how to do the swap trick so they could play FF7. That's how many people were interested.
>>
>>737075664
Yeah its crazy how popular ff7 was. Guys who normally only played fifa or fighting or racing games were playing a turn based jrpg and loving it.

I still think it's fun to replay today, it's still one of my favorite games. But the point you bring up about characters feeling samey is true. This is a point where you just have to admit Remake/Rebirth did that part better. All the characters feel different and have special moves beyond limit breaks. I would just like to genuinely know why the fuck they don't just copy and paste this into an actual new FF game instead of lol here's your one character.

They wanted to fill out the entire game world with their autism because they couldn't simply leave things to an overworld. And somehow gigantic JPGs for Midgar justified an entire game of its own when it's two hubs and a bunch of awkward dungeons tied together.
Seriously, 30 seconds and an optional boss fight of an area to traverse in the OG somehow became an explorable area with a mandatory boss fight and plot and that's the surface level of this sort of shit with this trilogy. God help the Midgar sewer retread.

It takes about as long to complete the original VII in a story run as it does to 100% Remake by itself, arguably shorter than Remake on average depending on what you're doing. VII was actually not that long, 3 discs just makes people imagine it was when in reality without all the FMVs eating up the discs you could fit everything on one easy.

So far all the Whisper Lifestream Dreamworld stuff has been self-serving since the devs don’t want to mess with the original story too much

I agree. Even though many of the story changes are pretty stupid i like not knowing how some things are going to happen. I believe that the biggest problem of the remake project is that fact that the first game is called remake. That's just false advertisement. It's clearly not a remake. Other than that, i have been enjoying these games quite a lot, and the combat is great.

>the 1% of turbospastics enraged by the first game

One has nothing to do with the other. It's typical for sales to reduce sharply on sequels. Especially when you're pitching to an older audience who know the first act is the best part of the story and there's most likely going to be an omnibus version they can buy on sale in a few years.

The hardcore fans who still glaze the original 25 years later and rage about trivial differences in the remake simply aren't part of the equation.

>Barret and Dyne were always stupid niggers and Mt Coral was always the hardest part of the 2nd act to slog through
Why? Their story is not only important but Dyne's story is extremely good and depressing and he's written so well. In Rebirth he is turned into some bioweapon and is on drugs and his death is constantly interrupted with joke boss and some random Shinra Soldiers attacking for some reason.
I have no idea how on earth anyone can prefer that over the og. This isn't some kind of "haha u stupid" but I genuinely don't understand how someone thinks that the rebirth Dyne scene is done well in any way. It would get laughed and memed at if it was any other game.

Anyway
My best bet is that you haven't just played the OG in a while and didn't read it. Or were too young to understand what was happening and why.
And just to make it clear, even if you don't care about Barret's storyline and character arc for some reason, that is not a defense for shitty remake/rebirth stuff.

>>737090580
That's genuinely retarded, though exactly what people were saying. The one advantage 3 separate games has is that it allows feedback from people playing the previous game to rework the gameplay to be improved the next game, without being held back by having to copy the mechanics of the previous game while carrying forward stats, equipment and progress.

But this separation and lack of carrying anything forward is obviously bad precisely because nothing you do in the previous parts can affect the next, so you're no longer getting a coherent experience with meaningful decisions carrying through the different parts, which forces everything to play out across the games in the same way.

Not really because the setup is moronic. Barret has access to the same information as everyone else, but somehow he takes the blame, and blames himself, for inviting Shinra in. Then everything after is just a tale of low impulse control, low reasoning power niggers, and literally everyone in the town is like that because there's lead in the water or something.

Maybe I just don't like Barret; idk. There's nothing edifying about that whole part of the game other than 'Wow Barret is really fucked up,' and there's no payoff. You're just traveling with a violent felon.

No, it was Kitase or Nojima that said the story shouldn't change and there should be limits to considering player's feedback so it doesn't affect the story they planned.
But they also said if the feedback was not about changing the game, but adding to it, they would consider it.
They said something like "if players tell us they don't like C, there's nothing we can do about that. But if they say, I would like you to also add B, that's something we can consider".

I forgot to say "NTA". That's not me, I'm just saying that being able to recognize that some ways of playing a game being strictly superior to other ways of playing the game is not an "mmotranny" thing, though having a brain that is capable of realizing this can sort of detract from the amount of fun you have if one of your favorite ways of playing the game is strictly inferior to a way of playing the game that you don't like as much. This also applies to characters when you can switch them around; if the character you like the most is bad, it can make the game less fun.

its was actually separated into 3 parts by the publisher. tolkien himself conceived it and wrote it as a single book, stating in his letters that he considered calling it a trilogy to be incorrect.
>For publication, the work was divided into three volumes to minimize any potential financial loss due to the high cost of type-setting and modest anticipated sales: The Fellowship of the Ring (Books I and II), The Two Towers (Books III and IV), and The Return of the King (Books V and VI, and six appendices).
it literally got separated for the same reason that ff7 remake did, because of financial concerns.

I stopped responding because you can't stick to even the simplest story. You said " the bomb does NOTHING" and then posted a time-coded video showing the bomb working as intended. Most people would see a video like that and realize they were so completely wrong, they should just give up. Your persistence sticking to a story you've already proven wrong is like someone jumping off a building, hitting the ground and then claiming they can fly. It's obvious that you can't learn anything new, so I won't bother giving you a reply with new information that won't sink in.

>working as intended
>tiny explosion that does nothing
LOOL
it was intended to destroy the entire reactor you low IQ sperg.
instead all it does is move some of the rubble that the Guard scorp put there. The reactor panels model doesn't even change from the cutecene where guard scorp damaged it.
it sustains literally zero damage from the bomb. and then after seeing shinra have to blow up the reactor themselves you still cope that it's "working as intended".

I remember in late 90s and early 2000s being in FF forums. One particular thread from there was about how to beat Emerald and Ruby Weapons and someone screeched equpping less than 9 materia for Emerald to make the Aire Tam Storm hit less is wrong way because you need to have all materia slots filled, otherwise you were too weak. Also having 2 materias on 9999 max HP character was cheating because when the Emerald would proc the 7777 berserk madness, you'd be cheating.

If you really struggle to say your own opinions out of fear that someone might say you're wrong, express them like a child asking a question.

People forget now, but what really killed them originally was the 48fps cinema release, it looked so fucking bad. I still watch the first one semi regularly. It's 7/10. Still, if everyone saw the sequels in 24fps I think the cope would be a lot higher right now.

The fact that millenial parents are showing their kids older movies now and they think they're "laggy" is an indication of how doomed this medium is. The whole industry of video essayists shilling for older movie-goers about how movies "should" look is just a small echo chamber.

The zoomers and alphas want 120 fps cg fests that look like it's shot in a phone camera, ie hobbit 48fps release. Just think about how flimsy of a position it is to say "B-but it doesn't looks quite right, it loses some sort of movie magic" to a young person who isn't bothered by it at all and gets annoyed at all the motion blur and low frame rate.

It pissed me off so much when they introduced the whisper stuff in remake, until I saw it as a separate sequel instead of a remake. Then rebirth following the OG made me even more pissed off.
The combat is fun, I genuinely enjoyed the game after I got over my seething.
But if all the changes amount to nothing storywise, after they made it a self-aware meta sequel, then they failed in making a remake and they also failed in making a sequel. And I will see them as pathetic hacks.
>>
>>737088464
If that's the 3ds version they should just port that to Switch 2 and scale it up proper. That's the perfect look for a remake, keeps the blocky pillars and castle walls and everything while still looking more smooth and pleasant. Really the "this is what it looked like in our heads" thing. But I guess they're going to go full bluepoint realism on it.
>>
>>737103371
Yeah, I actually liked Remake a lot in the beginning. Replayed the demo like fifty times. Gameplay was good,.
I liked the fact that Cloud Sword style can change, and each one is very similar to both Zack and Sephiroth.
I liked that Aerith was aware of the other timeline, And it made it a lot more interesting seeing how she wasn't only interested in Cloud but also in Tifa and bringing all three of them closer together.
All of that kinda died down the closer you got to the ending, and completely dissipated in Rebirth. I dont know who was responsible for all of it, but I'm sure they got pushed out Nojima.
>>
>>737103994
Whatever doubts I had during Remake, I have to admit the ending did set up a potentially fascinating follow up, with "fate defeated" and all that. But for 99% of rebirth all that shit might as well have not happened at all. I dont think they'e brave enough to actually commit to The Unknown Journey even though they wasted so much time setting it up.
>>
>>737103529
>But I guess they're going to go full bluepoint realism on it.
I obviously wouldn't want that, but the 3DS version is still too bright and overly colorful in a way that should be toned down somewhat (it does look much worse and more garish on the actual console when it isn't upscaled like this). It improves on many of the flat bill boards with low res textures that abounded in the original game, but isn't ideal and still stands to be further improved.
