I want them to find a way to make the plot even worse.
Retards have already accepted Advent Children, Crisis Core, Dirge of Cerberus, and now they've even accepted Kingdom Hearts bullshit and a battle against the actual concept of fate itself.
It appears that certain fans will just eat up literally anything no matter how bad it gets as long as FF7 is in the title. So please, make it worse. I want to know what the breaking point is, because right now it seems like there isn't one.
Is there anything bad enough that would make these people say "okay, this sucks" because I truly believe there's no bar low enough to make these people let go.

not even top 10 worst final fantasy plots
I got the opposite impression. Despite the fact that there ARE things to criticize FFVIIR for, those points (e.g. needing to play the arm-crane minigame every time one replays the respective chapter, bosses resetting their topple gauge on phase-change, same or sometimes even worse English localization issues compared to the OG, etc.) are only very rarely brought up at all.
Instead I only see non-descriptive and/or overgeneralized one-liners being brought up that tell you next to nothing about what is supposedly bad.
>it's convoluted
tells you about as much as "it's bad... because it just is, ok?" and is entirely pointless on its own unless its backed up by something else, but even if it is, it's used like its an argument on its own, but it isn't one. It'd just be a conclusion based on sufficient actual arguments.
>it's a walking simulator
As opposed to what? An open-world game? How does one do it properly when rolling this feature back without being deemed a "movie game" instead?
>false-flagging strawman that "FFVII Remake has no flaws!"
whoever keeps posting that image should just fuck off already and get a life. Or even just play games at least.
>timejannies are KH-like
This one's probably the worst. Anyone who posts this should realize that it only would even be seen as criticism to begin with by the limited pool of individuals who gritted their teeth to play a game series they hate. It's not a criticism at all for those who liked it, or at least didn't hate it, as well as those who never played Kingdom Hearts games to begin with.
Best plot ever made
I wouldn’t mind the dumb plot if it wasn’t marketed as an actual remake.
Nice essay faggot
This shit should have been scrapped. It did make me like the original even more so I'm grateful for that at least.
You have no idea how bad it is going to get
Zack is back and he's going to replace Cloud
I love both og and the remake :)
user, don't mock effort posts. We don't get enough thoughtful commentary around here.
Same. Just finished my 4th playthrough.
The fourth one was with the release of the steam version, so was starting again from scratch. Gonna do hard mode next starting at level 38 without maxed materia, not sure how that will go but we'll see.
OG FF 7 is a mediocre game that got lucky 'cause it released after Akira and DBZ and has nice FMV, FF7R is just shit
>I only see non-descriptive and/or overgeneralized one-liners
Thank you for proving my point. If I didn't know better, I would have suspected you samefagging as me.
>Is there anything bad enough that would make these people say "okay, this sucks" because I truly believe there's no bar low enough to make these people let go.
The yuffie DLC proved this to be 100% correct.
At this point the only thing that would make the fanboys walk away is Tifa hooking up with Barret or something. The story can be as terrible as possible and they'll still buy it, but threaten their ship fantasies and they riot.
honestly same
I want it to get worse so the boomers cry even harder
I want it to get worse to see just how much shit the diehards are willing to eat
I won't be buying any of this trash but it's genuinely fascinating to observe the slow motion car crash
Its not a retelling its a sequel
The og story still applies
remake having a bad story doesn't become a moot point just because ff7 og still exists
Its not a bad story imo, actually really cool
Its all opinions in the end tho and all opinions are shit
Yours included
You enjoy it or you dont, I enjoyed it
if you like the story that's fine, I'm just tired of the "original still exists" defence because everyone who posts it knows they're being a slimy little fag who knows that isn't what's being debated. of course the original still exists. not one person has ever claims the original disappeared once remake came out. people are saying they liked or disliked remake on remake's own merits, and as soon as you say "original still exists" in lieu of an actual defence of the game, you're admitting you don't actually have an argument.
and sure enough the second this is pointed out you admit it.
>I liked it, so there
fine, you liked it, good, but you also haven't convinced anyone with criticisms that they're wrong. and if you don't care about doing that, again, fine, but why are you on a videogame discussion board? and why did you feel the need to handwave away anyone's criticism with "original still exists" in the first place?
>but you also haven't convinced anyone with criticisms that they're wrong.
Jesus fucking christ. I've been seeing this criticism shite being spamming for 2 fucking years. What more do you want? For people to accept your opinion as the only correct opinion? People have argued with you and/or your mentally ill friends for 2 fucking years, agree to disagree and move the fuck on. Fucking hell. Never have I seen a fanbase this deranged and obsessed with being "right". It's not even that fucking good of a story in the first fucking place.
did you even read my post? I said I don't mind if you liked the story. I know that's not an objective thing, I said that. you like the story? okay, good for you.
all I said is "the original still exists" is a worthless post. and you know that, because nowhere in your angry tirade did you even deny it. you sure are upset that some people don't like this game. I don't mind if people like it, and I like discussing with them. but someone showing up to just say "game good. original still exists. bye." is being a slimy fag. again: nobody denies the original still exists.
>"original still exists" defence
That's actually part of the point Nojima was making though. It doesn't really matter one way or another for those who entered the FFVII-franchise with FFVIIR, but those who played OG FFVII and still have concrete memories of their last playthrough SHOULD notice changes. I remember a lot of complains about the elevator in Mako Reactor 1 at the beginning of Remake to not look cyberpunkish, but that was THE POINT. Likewise with the bomb not being enough to destroy the Reactor. You are supposed to pick up on the fact that Midgar in the Remake is actually much more modern and bigger than OG Midgar. For example Cloud falling down to Aerith's church after the Airbuster fight actually caused Cloud to die and had to be revived by the timejannies because Remake Midgar's plate height is 300m while OG Midgar only had 50m plate height.
These hints and nudges culminate in the most significant two changes that interestingly enough the timejannies did absolutely nothing to prevent:
1. Midgar has higher-tech in Remake and is much more developed from the very time of its construction.
2. But in turn Shinra's additional efforts in building up Midgar cost them the victory against Wutai, who Shinra had to make a ceasefire with in the end, completely different to the OG where Shinra actually won the war and turned Wutai into a demilitarized tourism nation.
These two points in turn make something else very evident: President Shinra, at least in the past, seemed to have favored Reeve more and Heidegger/Scarlet less, than he did in the OG.
It's sad that so few people actually LOOK at the games, and what changed here, but instead can only spout memey one-liners with no critical or analytical thought whatsoever. I thought 4chins was only for adults and not for underaged?
But maybe that's just the gamers in general. The only one who I saw put some proper in-depth critical thought into the game was the "German autist" CosmoCanyonObservatory.
>anyone who dislikes remake is mentally ill
Why are 7R fags so fucking obnoxious and defensive? How do you reach a point where you're posting shit like this and expecting to be taken seriously?
>dude the game is good you just need to watch an autistic furry droning on for 10 hours about his headcanon on youtube
Pass
>For example Cloud falling down to Aerith's church after the Airbuster fight actually caused Cloud to die and had to be revived by the timejannies because Remake Midgar's plate height is 300m while OG Midgar only had 50m plate height.
Holy shit, every criticism I ever had of the remake plot just evaporated
