How would this have affected the industry
Nobody know what SEGA was so not really
It would have looked objectively better outside of combat since the Saturn had beefier 2D hardware than the PS1. In fact they might have been able to experiment more with effects in the pre-rendered sections like scrolling and scaling. On the downside, more of the game would have been cut since the Saturn was a pain to progam for.
>>729230064Probably wouldn't have changed anything, by the time FF7 had been released worldwide Sega was about to pull the plug on Saturn anyway. Unlikely that FF7 coming to Saturn would have saved it.
>>729230598Yeah, this is a good point. FFVII being released alongside the PS1’s emerging mainstream popularity was likely a key factor in its blowout success.
>>729230064No Panzer Dragoon Saga and potentially no Shenmue. No Shenmue means no Yakuza.
>>729230064/v/ros what's the best way to play FF7? PC or emulation?
>>729231039pc with the seventh heaven mod installer if you want to make a pseudo remaster with better graphics.
>>729231039EmulationJank is part of the experience and charm. Also it keeps the main theme during THAT scene, which the pc port doesn't.
>>729231039Either works just fine, it's essentially the exact same game. Honestly the only big difference between versions you'll actually notice is how the PSX version didn't give characters mouths which makes certain NPCs look weird if they're given one of the open ones like the dude on the left in pic related. And don't listen to 'tards like >>729231282 and fuck around with needless modding for what I assume is gonna be your first playthrough. Go vanilla like millions of people have for the last 30 years.
>>729231282this, if only for the restored 60fps menus and battle menus/minigames.>>729231514you're a retard, enjoy 15fps battle menus, really great for battle square, Tifa and cait's limits>>729231039Emulation + a good crt shader, i recommend Frutbunn. Or pc with 7th heaven with the 60fps patch vanilla settings for how the gameplay was intended
>>729233209forgot to add the no mouth patch for the PC version, with those 2 mods you're good to go
>>729230064It would've sold like 10000 copies at most. Nobody owned a Saturn and Sega was actively trying to hold back anyone publishing games for it. They had an FF7 killer in Panzer Dragoon Saga and it got something like two batches of 6000 copy production runs.
>>729230064Sega was already full retard long before FF7 came out. It's honestly amazing the Dreamcast even launched
>>729233209>>729231514>>729231343>>729231282Thanks. I'll start off with emulation for the OG experience.
