After completing 3 regions, im kinda burned out on the game.Not sure if i should drop it for a while and play something else or just skip everything and rush the main story.
Drop it and play the real FF7.You could've finished it 100% within the time it takes to play ONE (1) of these demake chapters.
>>719783721just drop it.every single region is full of forced walking and dialogue dumps.the padding is not worth it.
>>719783721You don't need to 100% each region. Only do enough region intel to buy the materia Chadley sells for each. For example in Grassland you don't need 2 Morph materias for its region intel. For green marked character side quests, you can do them all or only do ones with the character you want to date with and then return to do the others after the date.
>>719784226You can go on dates on this game?
>>719783721I forced myself to finish it and it was NOT worth it. The whole final act is the worst part of the game.
>>719783721I ignored the side content and the game was still a chore and the payoff was utter shit
>>719784257The Gold saucer has small date on the chapter you reach it and then after Nibelheim there's another chapter with bigger date. The earlier date is just the character and you checking the place out and playing minigames with them commenting and the non-date characters also having bit of dialogue. The second date has you play the hero and the date princess in the theatre play. If you date Barret or Red XIII, then Aerith will play Princess and she also sings the title song no matter who your date is. After theatre it's the Ferris Wheel. If your affection level with the date is high enough, you get intimate scene: Aerith handholding, Tifa kiss, Yuffie kiss on cheek, Red lets you touch his paw and I don't know what's Barret's intimate date. If you fail to rise anyone's affection level even for the normal date, then Cait Sith, Vincent and Cid throw you a pity party.
>>719784270i thought the final part was the best part of the game. still the whole game is slice of life filler to appease tifa fans who's more boring than a pile of shit
>>719784317Same. I cannot imagine how laborious it would be if you weren't ignoring Chadley the whole time.
If you like the combat and characters, its worth still rushing the main story. Every area has new enemies, new bosses and traveling around and seeing each new region is still great. but yeah its full of annoying filler content and forcing yourself to 100% before moving on definitely would lead to burn out. I don't want to see any more towers, summon shrines or the lifestream springs
>>719784769Rebirth made me realise I would play any game, no matter how bad, as long as it had these characters in it
>>719784814Same
>>719783721its kinda bloated with useless hollow side content.all you gain by doing all of it is the final fights/levels being 10% easierthat being said queen's blood did end up growing on me and chocobo racing wasnt that bad but the rest of the side/mini games i only did for the sake of completionism
>>719783721Rebirth is old and busted, KNEEL FAGGOTS
>>719784769thats what i hate about games like this i always 100% content that shows up in quest lists/maps because im afraid of missing out good shit but im always disappointing at how rare/almost nonexistant good stuff is in that type of contentexpedition 33 did it perfectly, there's plenty of side content but it's just there, you're not constantly surrounded by markers that say 'here's a thing you didnt do yet' with those towers, there's real exploration in that game that doesnt exist in F7R
>>719785120In most games you really don't miss good shit. Like you gain nothing from 100% regions in Tsushima, or Ass Creed, or Far Cry. but they locked so many fucking materia behind Chadley and World Intel its bizarre. >its just therebut you definitely know if you skip it you miss out on Lumina, and on pictos. Its just not in a menu you can hover to see "0/2 Pictos Found, 0/1 Mime Fought" near locations. To me its not the knowing that I missed stuff like how Rebirth lays it out in World Intel, its just the content of said optional shit. Its the same shit in every region, with only the side quests and proto-relic being unique. I'd say against E33, its really you just running down hallways killing mobs in all the optional areas. There is sometimes good character banter, and journals are nice, but the game really lacked something to break up all the combat. It was nice that I got so broken early act 2 that I could just run past enemies and not care as much cause I would blast whatever I needed to fight anyways
>>719785407i feel like the 'bureaucratization' of game content into lists and markers on maps is what ruins rebirth compared to E33. there was some good stuff in the side quests of rebirth, for example i liked how each was tied to one of your party members and you got to interact with them as a result (even if the 'affection' mechanic leads to nothing) but 80% of the side content is low quality filler.>but you definitely know if you skip it you miss out on Lumina, and on pictos. Its just not in a menu you can hover to see "0/2 Pictos Found, 0/1 Mime Fought" near locations.when you make shit unmissable you remove all joy in finding it. expedition 33 actually overdid this especially in act 3 where you basically start right next to the end of the game and all the side content, a lot of it high quality stuff that touches on key points of the plot is behind you with nothing to even suggest you should go seek it, i finished the game and then saw a videos online of people doing side content i didnt know existed so i loaded a save and did that. i think that is still better than the F7R way but an ideal would be hinting at side content, having it visible from places you go to in the main plot but not shoving it in your face with lists or map markers.
>>719783721Kek was the same just sold my copy 30min ago and bought hell is us and metaphor
>>719788027based
>>719788262We got to be real ff7 rebirth is shit..enjoying metaphor so far keeping hell is us for tonight
>>719788262Forgot sold mh wilds too pure trash
>>719789145Nice, glad to hear it.>>719789259Yeah I was disappointed with Wilds too. Haven't touched it again since Akveld or whatever it was called. It has the same problem as Rebirth where the cutscenes are so fucking boring and feel like a japs idea of what westerners want.
>>719783721Just move on retard
>>719783721I don't understand why people feel the need to do all the sidequests at the earliest opportunity before doing the main story. Do what you feel like, you're not missing out because you can do it later.
>>719783843>every single region is full of forced walking and dialogue dumps.it's not. Stop making shit up.At worst, all cutscenes are fully skippable.
>>719783721Think twice before complaining about Rebirth in future, especially when it's a YOU problem that YOU created for yourself, not a problem with the game itself.
>>719789442>>719789548>>719789730nice, nice
>>719788027>sold my copy for metaphorYou sold an alleged bloated game for a game that's 200x more bloated?grim.
>>719789805>alleged bloatedlmao you can't help yourself can you
>>719789883You forced the comparison.
>>719789730>the game being bloated with repetitive and boring content is your problem
>>719783721Tik tok and other social media have fried the brains of a generation. Era of JRPGs is over.
>>719790039woah woah woah, ALLEGED bloat, anon!!! you CAN'T say rebirth has bloat, you can say it "might" have bloat, if you must. but we can say for certain that any non FF7 related game you may want to bring up DOES have bloat, and a LOT of it.
>>719790039It's not repetitive, nor boring.Queen's Blood has more programmatic density and variety than most JRPGs.
>>719783773Theres no gameplay in it though
>>719790039Honestly, kind of. Look up adhedonia. You think 12 yrold you would have been bored.
>>719790141>you: *brings up metaphor*>me: that game is even more bloated thoever.>you: STOP BRING UP METAPHOR!!!we gott'em boys.
>>719790141This but with Jeffrey Epstein.
>>719790290>>you: *brings up metaphor*Wrong, I'm just laughing at your fanboyism from the sidelines. Never played Metaphor and probably never will. Tried Persona 3 years ago and hated it.
>>719790290>STOP BRING UPHmmmmmm :)
