>it's shit
I don't understand. Why didn't they just remake the old game, flesh out more of the story, and make the world bigger?
It's shit
This is your whole life isn't it.
>Current Square
There's your answer.
Played the original when it first came out when I was like 8. Beat it with a guide but dont remember any of it. Replaying it now 25 years later and don't remember a thing.
Because that would be too easy a sell. You assume the people making this game are interested in making a good game. They are trying to make their chuuni fantasy and a legacy item.
The merger with Enix has been nothing but a disaster for square.
Having a blast, meant to say.
Also, how true to the original is it (no spoilers)? I know the remake is a different universe.
Because they wanted to display their creativity and personal talent. This was a nice vehicle for that.
I don't know why they stick to tradition in DQ games but go wild with experimentation with Final Fantasy. Make a new IP if you want to do that shit.
Imagine paying $70 for a fraction of a game.
>Why didn't they just remake the old game
Because all of you are too divided on them simply "just remaking the old game." What exactly do you mean by this? You are incredibly vague here. Do you literally mean this? Or are you yet another one of those types that wanted the combat overhauled into action like we see now? Are you another one that wanted all the goofy cartoony parts to stay in despite the graphics looking more towards the realism side? Did you want perhaps Yuffie and Vincent to be mandatory to get? There isn't simply them just remaking a game that was as content and story rich as FFVII. It was always going to have issues and people with all sorts of expectations.
...
Because just remaking the original with the exact same core events doesn't justify the time and energy from a creative stand point.
The original game is still there so just trying to invalidate it with "The same but more" isn't really interesting to developers
>admitting that post touched a nerve
LMAOOOOOO WHY WOULD YOU ADMIT THAT
Yeah this remake is incredibly fucked. It would have been best if Square was just honest about it from the beginning.
yep, these people are mentally ill, cant come to terms with the remake being successful
...
The old game was mediocre as fuck and Nomura is a hack. It would be a shit game regardless if they completely copied it or not.
could you perhaps try again without the wojak
>you spent time making this
Nomura
How can capcom do it with RE1 and 2? (even 3 isnt bad just to much cut). Maybe the leads at capcom are not special snowflakes who cant fucking project manage anything and have to jizz their autism over every project their are working on.
I simply don't want major plot deviations. The rest of everything is absolutely fine. Great, even.
no
>mentally ill
it's Any Forums, so Any Forums is constantly spreading their autism here
its hardly the sistene chapel now is it
Yeah. I like most of it. The fucking time jannies and sephiroth creepily stalking you are the main issues. The rest is fine. ok the pacing is uneven but thats the price for stretching a 6h section into 30h.
But Capcom didn't fucking do it either with 2 or 3 wtf are you talking about? Its an entire paradigm shift as far as the gameplay is concerned. It even changed up encounters and story points from the original. Even the first games remake isn't completely true to the original. Very few games that have been remade ever stayed too close to the original. You guys are better off listing the Pokemon remakes of gens 1 and 2 because those at least did stay much closer to the originals than most other games out there do. They were largely just graphics and music overhauls without going out of there way to change story points and whatnot.
It doesn't even work because you just know Reunion is going to deviate from CC heavily. He's going to live at the end.
Yes it is not the same. its a remake. The games are still mostly true to the originals. you know what capcom didnt try to shoehorn into the remakes? Fucking time travel and parallel universe bullshit. Maybe capcom has taste, or at least decency.
>taking out the one thing from CC that people didn't think was shit
lmao I hope you're right user that would be funny
Oh yeah, they're doing it. If you'll notice they've re-rendered the cut scenes and recorded new voice acting. Its gonna go wild. They wouldn't have gone to the trouble of all that if it wasn't going batshit.
it is frankly your fault if you're familiar with the original game but don't get almost immediately that it's not a remake, and not even because of the time ghosts, but because sephiroth won't shut the hell up about not being forgotten and showing up AT ALL when he does
>Maybe capcom has taste, or at least decency
shave your neckbeard, ff7 is not a sacred cow
>I simply don't want major plot deviations.
Okay let me ask you this. Would you have been okay with Zach dying the same way he did in the original game? Or would you prefer how he died in Crisis Core? Also you do understand that FFVII had translation issues right? It also had several people join in on the project writing for it over its development. The key people even invovled with the remake likely didn't even have any involvement with this one outside Nomura and perhaps a few others. I also find it incredibly silly how you guys sayyou don't want story deviations yet were okay with everything else changing. Its just odd to me. So much of FFVII's story appeal to me was always in the way it was told and unfolded thanks to the limitations of its time. This will obviously get lost in translation no matter how much they "stayed true" to the original game.
Well we can edit the meme once that's confirmed.
Obsessed
The gameplay is at it's best and actually pretty much everything is good, until time janny are there, At first you are like whatever, but by the ending...just fuck everything.
Fuck Rebirth also, it looks like shit and I don't see the hype in it. Square is killing FF7 even more than it was. Trying the milking cows until it's dead.
Keep on seething, remake is better than the original in every single aspect. Combat almost bored me to death when I tried the original ff7. Take off your nostalgia goggles
>Why didn't they just remake the old game, flesh out more of the story, and make the world bigger?
that was obviously their original intention. but it took 5-6 years just to build midgar, which is a very small part of the game. which is why they had to fill it with so much padding to release it. and at that point they realized theres no way they can actually remake the rest of the game, which is why they pivoted to the next games being a new story.
It's a nice Sony film
>assblasted by a fucking meme
KEK
Because that requires too much effort and cost. It's easier and more cost efficient to spend money on false advertisement to sell a small half baked portion of the original with minimal content
sorry you had to be born a zoomer. tough luck. hows the transition going?
I'm fine with the original, shill.
I do agree with you there but lets not act like Capcom didn't change a ton of RE2 when they did. Not just gameplay, story elements and encounters too. Spiders and crows aren't even in the game either.
