Why do retards still think that this is a remake?
Sephiroth if he Texan
>it's not a remake when it suits my narrative>it's a remake when it doesn't suit my narrativeEveryone on /v/ does this. Without exception.
it's a remake on a meta level, Sephiroth is trying to remake the world/story to achieve his goal/create eternity, it's not that hard to understand
>dude it's actually a sequel>get subverted nerd roflmao
>>730785157
>>730785157When are we gonna admit they should've just remade this shit during the PS3 era when nostalgia for it was at its peak and the console needed a killer app
>>730785709>publishers never lie
>>730785157Yes, it is still a remake in the end.When you play a game a second time, you don't do it exactly the same way as the first time. You might use different sets of Materia, you might get or not get some items, and you might even skip having Yuffie or Vincent in your party.But you still consider both playthroughs as the same game.7R is the original FF7 with several preset variables altered, that ultimately changed some important things but it is still the same game as a whole.
>>730787548It's a sequel, not a remake. It's set after the events of the original and has characters that know of the events of the original.
>>730787581I wrote quite a long post and you didn't address nor refute even an iota of my points.It changes some things but overall, it is still the same story.
Because it goes over most of the same plot beats as Final Fantasy 7, with the same characters as Final Fantasy 7 in the eame world as Final Fantasy 7.Although if you want to be anal about it, you can call it a "reimagining".
>>730785157Why do retards still think pointing out that it's a sequel causes all criticism to evaporate?Someone will write up a huge post listing the faults with the game, and some chucklefuck who might as well be a bot will inevitably reply:>it's a sequel, not a remake.So fucking what? What difference does it make? How about tackling anything else the anons are actually saying for once.
>>730785451>>730785607i know absolutely nothing about this game or the original, is it one of those meta-sequel remakes like the SH2 remake, where it technically takes place after the first but is supposed to be like a reincarnation or something like that
>>730789620how is SH2 remake a meta-sequel?
>>730785225Technically, if we consider Tifa and therefore Nibelheim Texan, then he is.
>>730787446So false advertising?
>>730789620Yes, it's a sequel, but 95% of the events are the same.It's basically a cowardly hack writer way to dodge criticism when you do some retarded shit or change things.>don't forget, you're not allowed complain because it's a sequel, NOT a remake! didn't you GET that?
Is it actually good? The combat seems repetitive and the emphasis on side content too high, I've dropped FF7 at the Gold Saucer after finding it too boring...
>>730789686they gave a buncha hints through the polarioids you can find that spell out "youve been here for 20 years, james" or something like that that kinda confirms the shitty loop theory that everytime james dies he respawns at the car, thats why all the corpses are of james
>>730789904if you thought FF7 was too boring the remakes will be torture
>>730789508I can't defend the 7R games but I CAN start a pointless pedantic argument about the definition of a remake. It's a good way to deflect.
>>730789904They added 70 hours of padding
>>730789904FF7 is short compared to FF7 Redditmake unless you are rushing it. There is way more padding in Reditmake.https://youtu.be/Pw4LPSEOMoA?si=s-C5epBVmVB0c_xE&t=2012
>>730785157I will call it a masterpiece if they save my wife Aerith. If they kill her again i will boycott this scam failure
>>730785157Because we do not yet have a word for Nomuratism Half-Remake/Half-Reimagining/Half-Sequels. Might as well call them FF7R-likes if they start popping up.
>>730785157Remake is literally written on the box, retard
>>730789508Why do retards still think someone pointing out that it's a sequel is because they want all criticism to evaporate?Sounds like you are obsessed with people making you feel like you are valid, are you trans by any chance?
>>730785157The true remake of FF7 was Crisis Core. FF7 Remake is a sequel. FF8 is a remaster of FF7.
Why is the Shinra Building pitch dark even though they're supposed to be an electric company?
>>730787650>>730787548Retarded copeThose games make less sense (Rebirth is even worse) if you didn't play the original first.Honestly, I don't see how you can play the OG and remakes and think like that.Remake was good in the beginning where it added a bunch of stuff to Midgar, yeah sure you had the time jannies and everyone knows it's a metaphor for the OG fanbase (which is kinda weird because it's made for the OG fanbase because it's a sequel, or a second playthrough, so no new players allowed) then it started to drag and then it went completely retarded, started to drag even more until you were finally done.Only gets worse with Rebirth, the events don't even make sense within the game/remake logic.Even a schizo could write a more coherent story>>730790048You can't trust with pollacks with anything
>>730785157Its literally a sequel, not a remake. Have you guys even played it?
I mean Cloud, Aerith, and Sephiroth already knows the future and are actively trying to change things. That is not the original story.
>>730797416Sometimes it is, depending on the criticism being dismissed at the time.
>>730785157they should have just made advent children the game
>>730785157Depends on the eye of the beholders, theres something for the oldfag that played the OG and theres something for the newfag that hasnt. Both can enjoy the game in different ways and asking their own questions.Thats why it is so great and unique in that regard.
>>730795768>sequel>all the characters who died are alive again
>>730799379Huh? Only Sephiroth from the first game is still alive
