I'm planning to buy Rebirth on Switch 2 to play during vacation. Make me change my mind before I do that tomorrow.
>>738834863YOu should buy it, play it, and come back to us to tell us how you realize /v/ has dogshit taste. It's the best FF since 10.
It's the best ff since xv
It's the worst version of it they had to delete a bunch of clutter everywhere to get it to run at 30fps.
>>738834863Just pirate it on PC.
>>738834912The sperg complaints are really retarded > too much content > open world slop even though the original was open world
>>738834863Nah, its good. Enjoy anon
>>738835119Can you build sand castle with bros?
>>738834863Its a good game and also kinda long so it should last you for the vacationNow the question is, how are you gonna play it? during vacation, moving around? are you gonna be able to play it on PC? play it on PC. Now if you want to play it on switch 2 just be aware that compromises will be done so it manages to run on switch 2
performance can be pretty bad
Have fun, it's the best FF game.
>>738834863Just remember that by supporting SQE you keep a cancer in the industry alive. By doing this you just prolong the browngrades in the industry.
>>738838373>You should care about my alt right tranny feelingsI'll buy 10 copies, just because you tried to force some homo agenda on me
>>738834863Rebirth is consumerslop.
It is an excellent 40-hour game stretched out to be 80 hours.
I admit, this part made me tear up.Is this really all men need? A little unconditional comradery?
>>738838536I felt so let down with the protoretic quest. I did everything and then when I got there towards the end of the game it was way too difficult to do it outside of the post game.
>>738838414>forced homo agenda on meLol, like Gandalf forced the Hobbits to run away from the balrog. You, like the lemmings that you are, rather jump and get fucked by the balrog than turn away from gay shit (protip: homo propaganda is the bread and butter of the remake fags)I rather advise you to, if you really need to pump money in this western brainwashed dev, buy the ogs, 7-9. But go ahead gayfaggoz, buy it just because it looks pretty(not on the switch though)
>>738838414>everyone who hates the poojeetitifiction of games is alt right tyranny nazi chudYou forgot to mention epstein my mindbroken goylem.
>>738839019>alt right tourist who doesn't even play games and comes here only to push his homo agenda>tells people to play final fantasy 8, aka worst final fantasy ever made before 16Pottery
>>738839181>do not support modern devs who add homos, niggers and boss girls to remakes remasters>it's a Homo agendaWow, stunning conclusion shillkun.>never plays gamesIf I wouldn't play games, I wouldn't care about it in the first place you inbred mongrel.I'm also certain that I played more games than you but that's not even the point.>FF8 a shitBrave opinion, like all the plebs who parrot their fav eceleb. Go dance to the honeymoon inn minigame in the demake , it was made for Nigger trannoids like you.
>>738834863Have fun anon, as far as checklist based exploration goes this is on the better end of that
>>738835119>>738838203I've never played a FF can i romance these women
>>738841624You can take any of them on a date but you can only romance the middle one
>>738834912/v/ has dogshit taste, but the conversation is dominated by one incredibly mentally ill shitposter who lives and breathes 7R shitposting.
>>738841652thanks
Funny how there are daily threads about the game after it got a big sale on steam.
I dunno about the Switch version but the PC one is top tier. Yeah, the new story beats in the plot are retarded but it follows the original closely enough anyway, and the my only REAL complaint is that they went a bit too far in the Ubishit design direction, ie. you need to uncover all icons on the map to collect every single trinket and the game kind of pushes you towards it. I also think the combat is really specific and I'm not a 100% jiving with it but it is fun, it's probably just me being dumb.On PC you can always mod it and give Tifa bigger tits if you want also.
>>738842659Beach episode with the Dr. Mengele who tortured Aerith's mom for years is retarded in both coffee
>>738842659Oh yeah, and having played FF8 I think there's not enough variety to Queen's Blood. They could've easily made it work like in that game - pressing a different button next to ANY NPC could throw you into a match and then give you a random card. Here the game has you approach a pre-defined set of unique NPCs with a big fuckoff icon in the middle of the town so you won't ever miss it and after three or so players per area it's completely over and you have to progress the story to find a new opponent.
>>738841664Why would a game that only one person dislikes not be selling better?
>>738835040Neither Rebirth nor OG are open worlds. They are wide hallways like all most FFs
>>738843916You have the English comprehension and reasoning skills of someone who isn't white.
>>738844508It just seems to me that if there was only one anti-7R person out there saying bad things about it, it would probably be selling a lot better and have a better reputation.
>>738844570It did sell well enough(jsut compare to 16, that was shilled by both alt righter grifters like grummz with assmongoloid and game journos) and it's pretty well liked in general
>>738845462Comparing to 16 isn't exactly a great strategy considering the excuse Square gave for 16's relatively small sales was due to being on a new hardware, meanwhile Remake launched on the PS4, the same plataform that had 15 which sold a fuckton of units
>>738845532Rebirth launched on ps5 as exlusive for year, and even when both were ps5 exlusives, it absolutely raped 16 in salesDunno what's your point
>>738845462Quite amusing that it can sell well and have a good reception but its fans remain so insecure, ready to melt down the moment a single person doesn't praise it or dares to question its flawless reputation
>>738845646What the fuck are you talking about? XVI reached the 3 million mark in its first month while Rebirth sold around 2.5 million
>>7388457287R fans are very insecure and have to create a dreamworld (much like their hero Cloud) where Rebirth sold astonishingly well and everything else, including XVI, sold like shit.The reality is XVI and Rebirth will probably have sold close to the same kind of numbers, neither will have embarrassed the other. But these 7R fans, who are supposedly FF and SE fans, need to believe that XVI sold like SHIT and Rebirth sold SO MUCH BETTER simply out of playground style "m-my game is better than yours!" insecurity.Of course you could bring up hundreds of games that unquestionably demolished Rebirth sales wise, but those all wouldn't count, and suddenly they don't care about sales anymore. But they still insist XVI has to "lose" so 7R can "win"
>>738845920I myself quite like the Remake series and dislike XVI but what's the fucking point in making such a obvious lie that's easily verifiable? It's no fucking secret that Final Fantasy as an IP lost its star power a long time ago, shit is looking grim yo! I've seen people claiming that numbers don't matter only to flip around when the thing you care about make big numbers but outright making up imaginary numbers is a level of delusion i'm not used to dealing with
>>738834863Redditfantasy 7: Redditbirth
>>738834863Good game. Has my cute wife Aerith.
>>738834863Nah it's good. The best FF game in the last 20 years at least
>>738834912Fippity
>>738834863I liked it
>>738834863You should buy it
>>738842428sauce
>>738834863I had good time on it, yet some added scenes are really cringe sometimes.If possible i would recommend to buy it on PC, I had to mod the game to remove some bad things like grass poping at 30 meter from you. I imagine the Switch 2 version might be even worst.
>>738834863I love Rebirth but surely there are other games that run well on Switch 2 you could buy instead so you play Rebirth on better hardware later.
>switch 2 supports 2tb express sd>maximum express sd card you can buy is 512gbI just don't understand
>>738850937i have a 1 tb sd express card
>>738850937There is one 1TB from Lexar which i've ordered from Amazon back in September and which I got for free because Amazon did the mistake to send twice the same orderNot that it's something I do recommend mainly because 1TB still remains fuckhuge in size even if your Switch library is exclusively digital (like mine), and that it could lead to choice paralysis amongst certain users to have many titles installed at once.
>>738851065>>738851139Yeah, found it on amazon, kinda weird that couldn't see it in my shops
>>738834912>It's the best FF since 10.True, but also not much of an accomplishment since the bar is so deep in hell that Satan is standing on it.
>>738834912/v loves Rebirth. That is why we still get daily FFVIIR threads. :))))
>>738848287
>>738849234Nigger it's literally in the picture.
>>738834863It plays like shit buy it on ps5 for the definitive experience
>>738837884I ran around this area in the demo several times and had no drops at all
>>738854820For me, it's pregnant Aerith and Tifa.
>>738837884Does it have the problem from pc version where the sounds start to crackle if the frames dip?
>>738834863There have been threads about this game every day since it's revealThere have been threads detailing grievances about this game every day since post launchIf (You) still think it's worth it, and want to support Square AND Nintendo's retardation, (You) deserve to piss away your moneyUnless you've been in a coma, and actually want to seriously talk about the pros and cons, with regards to your tastes...>>738834912Shareholder detected. Neck yourself
>>738854991Nice work
>>738852781/v/ hates itNormie tourist casuals consoom itShareholders want you to love it and buy it on every platform
>>738856152One obsessed OG purist turn-based troon isn't /v/.
>>738854991Oh shit, there a demoGuess I need to start with it, instead
>>738856325>obsessedAnon you do this post 500 times a day, every day. Go ahead and dump the Persona folder.
>>738857139>Anon you do this post 500 times a day, every day. Go ahead and dump the Persona folder.Anon, you post this every day. Why are you so obsessed? Go ahead and dump your "Redditbirth" folder.
>>738834863>Make me change my mind before I do that tomorrow.I can't, because then I would deprive you of one of the greatest gaming experiences of all time.Try the demo. It is great.
I better get to save Aerith in part 3 or this whole bait-and-switch remake sequel thing will fucking piss me off.
>>738857727you should let her go and learn to cope with itAerith died and she must be free into the lifestream
I'm so sick of gooners man
>>738857493>Go ahead and dump your "Redditbirth" folder.What's in there?
>>738856325>muh dynamic COOOOOMBATAlso, how am I the troon when rebirth has literal fag shit shoehorned into it?I know it's a fun buzzword insult to sling around, but at least try to use accurate insults, words do and should have meaningRetardAlso, there's plenty of purists, why do you think every FF7R thread breaks down into a shit flinging contest?
>>738857875Mostly screencaps of posts that triggered you.
>>738857727Trust the plan.They didn't add all the defy fate shit just to leave them miserable again.
>>738858285Any examples? I don't think I've seen these
I already pre ordered, that card will be mine
>>738858525>most anticipated remake of all time and "top 10 gaming experiences of all time" needs exclusive MTG cards in the box in order to selllmaoooooooo the humiliation ritual never ends
>>738858525>Exploiting magicfagsIt's funny and sad how desperate and how low square is, and willing to go
>>738834863Expedition 33 is much better.
>>738858525I pre-ordered a copy that I will never open and add it my collection.I usually don't collect shit, but I do make an acceptation for Final Fantasy. :))))
>>738858525the card will probably pay for the game
>>738858525They didn't make a new card for Rebirth?
>>738858921Being a cultist/ baiting shareholder/ shill is nothing to be pleased about, reflect on the choices in life that led to this pointYou can still turn it all around and not be a tool, Anon
>>738858525I hope Remake Part 3 is bundled with a brand new unique card. This MTG card is just a variant.
>>738859064It’s a variant drawn by Nomura
>>738858770>>738858525>>738858648I see what the purpose of the post was
>>738859069Says the hate cultist, that spends his entire day throwing hissy fits in every single Final Fantasy Remake thread.
>>738852781>>738858921What an odd way for a grown man to behave
>>738859069I bought this as well. I will also buy the Aerith statue when preorders are open.Cope and seethe.
Can't wait to see this shit flopping again. Still no official sales numbers.
>>738859317Square could've done a alternative retelling in a mobile format or something A remake was only a want from the moment the PS3 tech demo dropped There was only going to be one chance to do this, and square squandered it by pandering to every modern meme fag, and turning it into a heckin expectation subverting trilogyrinoI will never not be mad about this. Fuck you, and I hope you get stage 3 cancer that drags out into stage 4
>>738859502Based, me too.I have Aerith's music box as well. It's rare for square to make quality merch.
>>738859674They are doing a remaster, which is what you wanted, in the mobile game.This a remake in a literal sense, the characters are "remaking" the story.
>>738859714Based. It looks really cool.
>>738859317>spends his entire day throwing hissy fits in every single Final Fantasy Remake thread.It's fine to do this if you end every post with lol or a :) so everyone knows you're not mad.
>>738859780I wanted a remake, not a reboot (which is what the 7R trilogy is), and not a handful of uprezed/ replaced textures and updated music (which is what a remaster is)I get the play on words, and it's still retarded and a waste
>>738858869The bikini suck in that game, so no
>>738834912>It's the best FF since 10I can believe it but that's depressing and makes me wish they'd make a more classic style game or something like E33 but with ATB.
>>738860018>I wanted a remakeAll good remakes had very little to do with originalOr ghost busters, imagine if 80s movie was same as show it was based on, holy shit that would rob the world of great thingscarface, etc>bbbbut I'm underage zoomer and thought that remake should be 1to1 same as og gameNo, that's just your alt right grifters forced meme that has nothing to do with reality
>>738859780Can I ask you a question?
>>738860018It's a sequel, the OG already happened.
>>738859674I honestly don't understand why you niggers get so mad, because so far the plot has not changed at all. Pretty much only the lore has been expanded and it is really good.That said, if Square Enix made a 1:1 remake with modern graphics, voice acting, and so on, then you whiny and autistic morons would still complain that it is a SOULLESS DEMAKE. Just look at how you reacted to very minor changes of the rerelease of FFVII OG on Steam. You are literally uncapable of enjoying anything other than the original PlayStation release of Final Fantasy VII due to severe autism or something. lol
>>738860295I see you are taking the "question" thing seriously as a counter when you dont know what to say
>>738859901>music box made by Orpheus>Orpheus' wife was killed by a snake>he goes to the underworld to bring her back to life >almost gets away with it but looks back and she dies forever Ohnonono aerisfags
>>738860419>It's a sequel, the OG already happened.This is one of many theories. We won't know for sure until Part 3 is out.
>>738860539If you are worried the question might upset you I won't ask it
>>738834863Rebirth is a great game that improves on the original in certain respects but also falls victim to the same pitfalls.That said I wouldn't play it on the Switch 2, it's fairly demanding (poorly optimized) and the Nintendo's consoles are underpowered and I can't for the life of me imagine it being a good experience on the Switch 2 or the Steam Deck for that reason.
>>738858525Even though I despise the direction MTG is going by not sticking to it's own lore. I have to give props to this card, it's mechanically great and fits the character very well.
>>738860475>so far the plot has not changed at all
>>738859974>>738860475Hehe
>>738860475I honestly don't understand why you niggers get so mad, because so far the plot has not changed at all.I don't get the outrage with changing things because the changes made so far have mostly been objective improvements. That said things have very obviously changed and if you can't admit that much, you're being either ignorant, dishonest or just plain stupid.
>>738860783He's falseflagging as an obnoxious retarded fanboy to make 7R fans look bad. Nobody is actually such a faggot that they'd post that shit for real. He's been doing this for a long time.
>>738858362Why did Cloud let her go in Rebirth's ending?
I wanted a 1:1 remake, I was salty and pissed with the initial release.That said, by Rebirth I had embraced the whole sequel thing until they killed Aerith again.I'm excited for part 3 but I expect actual change.
>>738860901I dont see any falseflagging, jimbo.
>>738861123Wait, you're saying all that shit for real? But that's 1:1 the same stuff someone would say to falseflag an obnoxious and retarded 7R fan. They wouldn't have to change a single word.
>>738861187>But that's 1:1 the same stuff someone would say to falseflag an obnoxious and retarded 7R fan.You always add something actually really stupid that makes it easy to discover you, jimbo.
>>738860908You know it's a metaphorical phrase meaning they will end up together, right?You don't think they will literally hold hands 24/7 eternally, right?
>>738861228I seriously thought you were him because that's exactly how his posts sound. But if it's not I'm sure he'd appreciate you doing his work for him.
>>738860475>Just look at how you reacted to very minor changes of the rerelease of FFVII OG on Steam.They barely even changed anything other than some quality of life stuff and these niggers still threw a massive fit. The autism is off the charts.
Why did they make Tifa look more Jewish than Asian in Rebirth? Is Tifa canonically a half Jew, Half Japanese hapa? I thought she was supposed to be full Asian like in Advent Children.
>>738861367No, jimbo.Now bump the thread to 500 posts, jimbo.You always do it, jimbo.
>>738835119>red behind them with a wide stancekek.
>lost to E33>lost to MetaphorMost raped game of all time.
>>738861456I don't need to, you seem to have things under control.
>>738859974>>738860475Pottery.
>>738861502>lost to the original as well>lost to Remake>even lost to XVI
>>738861278Okay but why did he let her go in Rebirth's ending for Sephiroth to come and kill her anytime?
>>738860939Same. Still pissed we won't have a AAA remake of the OG, but I'm embracing their new story. Now they better follow through.
>>738860475>falseflagging
>>738861452Why did they change Aerith's face to be like Vanille's?
what is (You)r personal problem with FF7 remake's plot?dante must die mode: don't be retarded and try to be objective with your criticism
>>738861627Huh? He left her in safety, HE's the one going to chase Sephiroth. Did you not see the ending?
>>738861598I like that the only game Rebirthfags claim to have beaten is XVI. They lose to everything else but are smug about beating the lowest possible bar... ANOTHER final fantasy game, lmao
I do not plan on buying a shittier version of 1/3rd of a proper game that's already released.
Part 3 when?
>>738861759Rebirth didn't even beat XVI though, so it's even funnier. XVI sold 3m in less than a week. Rebirth's sales were so bad that Square Enix still hasn't announced them. Not only that, but XVI had half the budget that Rebirth did too, so even if they sold the same amount, XVI would be twice as successful.
>>738861514>I don't need tothanks>>738861580>>738861678>>738861739damn that took nothing
>>738861739To save time why don't you tell us a criticism you'll accept, because you're clearly not going to accept any answer.
>>738861735Aerith doesn't look anything like Vanille though. ...green eyes? Is that the basis for your claim?
>>738861739They censor Tifa's tits.
>>738861747Sephiroth cannot come to the temple?
>>738862030Damn shame. Didn't they also recently censor her one sexy outfit? Buttoning up Yuffies shorts is also very gay.
>>738861889You're getting mad at your own opinion again and I haven't even reposted it yet
>>738862015Fine, Cinque then
>>738861739>Remake sets it up to be a sequel on par with the Evangelion Rebuild>they kill Barret and then bring him back to life, foreshadowing that things are going to be cuhrazy>Aerith seems to "know something">lol jk nothing means anything, Aerith doesn't actually know anything, we killed Barret for pure shock value and not for any actual reason, it's not a sequel, it's just a reimagining of Final Fantasy VII as a Kingdom Hearts game, directed by Tetsuya Nomura, guest starring time jannies (they serve literally zero purpose)
>>738862372Aerith definitely looks way more like Cinque than Vanille, but I have no idea what you're attempting to say by making these comparisons.
>>738862524The point is they changed her face to be different from her AC one.
>>738861920I'm not that anon. I actually agree that the plot of 7R is fucking retarded but I enjoyed it nonetheless. I don't care about them fucking up the original continuity since I played, enjoyed and finished 7 20 years ago.>>738862030Yeah but you can just - https://www.nexusmods.com/finalfantasy7remake/mods/669 install this.>>738862449But think about how much they fucked themselves for the third game, doesn't that make you really excited?>Cloud is semi-retarded and thinks Aerith is still alive. At the same time he knows who Zack is.>First game had lots of plot changes till the end and promised new shit as you said (and got critiized for it), then the second game pussied the fuck out and got criticized for it again. With the third game they have an impossible task of appeasing both groups.>People hate the fuck out of Chadley and the ubisoft slop and now they'll actually have to give us a full open world with the Highwind in it.The meltdown is going to be so beautiful.
Who's your NPC waifu? Mine is alt Aerith
>>738862449The promise of "the unknown journey will continue" was HYPE. The delivery after 7R has fallen flat. Ironically, the people who don't want changes got what they wanted minus a few extra scenes, whereas the people who wanted more sequence breaking didn't get any of it.
>>738862661Nobody bought Rebirth so there is no issue
>>738862616Nomura was focused on perfecting best girl Tifa's face to be unique and beautiful, he didn't give a shit about that whore's face.
>>738862449I wanted nomura's wild ride and the unknown journey. I didn't get it.
>>738862030Censor schizo is back.
>>738862786Procensorship fag is back. Defend this shit too.
>rebirth was a rethread of the original instead of the promised unknown journey>I spent years mocking purists but they ended up winningShit sucks
>>738858362People still deny this, lmao.
>>738862616So you're not making a point?
Reminder 2nd half of part 3 will be the wild ride.
>>738862030>>738862882If you want naked girls, then play a WEG. The girls in Remake show enough skin, you schizo.
>>738862971Same as you
Part 3 better have an actual sex scene between Cloud and Tifa
>>738863023This time for sure!
>>738862758He just copy pasted her VAs face.
>>738862937All you had to do was watch the trailers. Not rocket science.
>>738862882Why don't Tifa's boobs jiggle as much as they do in Rebirth? Is this due to censorship?
>>738863062>doubles down on defending censorship We get it, you are a fag
>>738862670Scarlet, Cissnei, those 3 beach whores and Kyrie are the best
>>738862670Is ifalna an npc?
>>738863172Yes. This is her in the OG.
>>738863492>not gameplayTry again.
>>738863068...what?
>>738863172they realized their "ethics" were costing them money. that and the people who paid attention to that also didn't buy their games
>>738863567>the literal scene in the game doesn't count!You have got to be falseflagging
>>738863227Rebirth shows more skin than the last 10 games I played combined. The amount of skin we see is perfectly fine. You just have issues, Mr. Censorship Schizo.
They owe me a passionate kiss with Earisu!
>>738863492This is also Tifa in OG
>>738863915Still not gameplay. This is gameplay: >>738864001
>>738863720See >>738861452
>>738864001Yet less than the fucking OG of the game they are "remaking" fag. Now fuck off.And you have not defended her censored dress yet, you should hurry, we don't want any criticism of squeenix.
Censorship defender fags piss me off, I will double down on being anticensorship.
>>738864209Rebirth definitely shows more. In high-fidelity even.
>>738864427First you have to point out censorship.Wait, what is this? The game has bathing suits and even.... boob jiggle physics? Aw, too bad.
>>738864460You are showing her censored outfit, is this satire?
>>738864527>ignoring the reduced tits
>>738864607>OH NO A SPORTS BRA?!? IN MY HIGH FIDELITY VIDYA?!!!!111What's next? Are you going to complain that 16 y/o Tifa also has "unrealistically" small boobs?
Why do people complain about Tifa's breasts when her face was ruined?
I'm currently playing through the original and was going to play intergrade/rebirth afterwardsIs it true that the remake is a sequel?
>>738864758So you admit they reduced her boobs AND the ethics department added a shit that was not in the OG outfit and you still defend it? Are you the femcel?
>>738864001>You just have issues, Mr. Censorship Schizo.This seems to be a common theme with Final Fantasy fans. Only the Larian fan base has more fucking weirdos and degenerates, but their games have straight up porn, so I guess it makes sense.
>>738864131I don't think you understand what you're saying.
>>738864924Yes.
>>738864950>fails to realize that a girls boobs grow while she in puberty.This is what we have to deal with here. Straight up brown-coded mental retardation.
>>738864460>>738864607>>738864758The real issue, besides the censorship itself, is that they censored her afterwards.
>>738865093They nerfed her tits when released, then censored her outfit after release, and now are censoring her other outfits in the mobile game.Yet femcel poster will insist there is no censorship because they desperately want to self-insert as Tifa.
>>738858525My remake booster pack was shit, so I'd happily take a special card over a random booster on rebirth.
Reminder water tower Tifa should have looked like this.
>>738865093I guess they decided that it would make more sense for Tifa to wear a sports bra for her gameplay scenes in Rebirth. So what. Who gives a shit if hebephiles are mad. The game still has cleavage.
>>738865334>Yeah they censored it, so what?Jesus
>>738865229They also buttoned (and belted) Yuffied pants in Rebirth while leaving them unbuttoned for Intergrade, and they wont let Cid have his trademark cigarette for some reason. There is a PLETHORA of DEI, gayness, and censorship in Rebirth. The only question is whether or not there is going to be even more in Part 3.
>>738834863>costal del faggotI rather kick the soccer balls into the kids faces.
I don't care about this dumb fight you guys have. I'm excited for the third game and my Aeris happy ending.
I'm going to do something funny in the next 7R thread
>>738862449You do realize that if we got the KH game that was intended to be FF13 we'd be in a better position right? Instead Kitase had to tell Nomura's pitch that it was bad Final Fantasy when Toriyama made exactly that instead. ->Toriyama even failed to capture KH magic DESU
>>738864859Agree, NuTifa face grosses me out.
Can we go back to discussing how the ones denying it's a sequel are retarded?
>>738865565More contextStory goes, a man named Tetsuya wanted to make the next Final Fantasy numbering title a break from the recent games before it. It had urban elements, a dark science-fiction bent and comments on contemporary issues such as gangs, corrupt governments and class divide, etc. and would have gameplay systems that haven't yet been tried in FF but instead in other genres including platformer-style movement such as running around and jumping thanks to full 3D level design and A free camera. Mecha robots and politics were going to be big gameplay and story components, putting this close to Armored Trooper Votoms, Devilman, or Space Runaway Ideon than Final Fantasy, about personal experiences affected by violence and the separation of church and state.The producer rejected Tetsuya's pitch because it was too dark and complicated for a numbering title. He said yes to another pitch with conventions from past Final Fantasy games such as linear progression from cutscene to battle to town to world map, contextual interactions that varied per level with identical inputs, and limited exploration on flat 2D planes with point A to B navigation. This one used storytelling and railroading to bring people from one FMV cutscene to another almost seamlessly. This was the interactive movie design philosophy as the producer wanted to use games to tell stories that could stand up to movies by copying them. This pitch was very much inspired by shonen anime and some level of social commentary on the environment but had a classic Final Fantasy narrative on metaphysics and grand philosophical ideas.Tetsuya's pitch was good enough to get a dev team of young hires from other projects and a budget but Square suffered losses and mismanagement, this new game became compromised from what Tetsuya really intended. People still ask about the original vision Tetsuya had for his game in hushed tones.Being Tetsuya is suffering.

>>738865565I do definitely wish that Nomura had been competent enough to release Versus XIII, that way we'd know for a fact that it wasn't actually very good and all the Nomurafags could finally shut the fuck up about it.

>>738865871Leave him alone, psycho
>>738865683I'm a straight white man, and Kingdom Hearts is a Disney game so it makes more sense for egregious censorship to exist in that game. Rebirth is a grown ass man Final Fantasy game made by Square Enix, and they left her pants unbuttoned in Intergrade (unless they went back and censored that too, like they did with cowboy Tifa's top)Why do you faggots defend this game so hard, even against things that are indefensible?
>>738865798>that way we'd know for a fact that it wasn't actually very goodI'll be honest I don't think Nomura was equipped to discuss political issues (look at how FFVIII went) even if he had the Front Mission writers room and FFXII cutscene planners but at least he'd get it out of his system rumor has it he wanted it to be his FF swan song
>>738864046Oh and they will deliver.
>>738865093>ESRB: Give 16 y/o Tifa a sports bra, or the game will be rated 18+>Square Enix: Okay BossThis is what happened. You are just too retarded to understand and to brown to realize that nobody even really cares.
>>738865979>the Front Mission writers room and FFXII cutscene planners>they worked with Nomura on VersusHOLY FUCK WE WERE ROBBED
>>738865979I agree with you. I wish it existed so that we could all shut the fuck up about its hypothetical existence and instead we'd know it's just a mediocre game.

>>738866047You asked for it>TL;DR for Stellafag Writeup, Side Green (Part 1)>The green image AKA Stellafag writeup Part 1 (picrel) talks about the events in Square Enix that caused Versus XIII to turn into XV. Crystal Tools and mismanagement turned XIII and XIV raging dumpster fires that almost killed the company under Wada, forcing the Versus team to be split across any and all Crystal Tools games to make development easier.>It mentions the Crystal Tools graphics engine and how it affected development. It also talks about how trying to get mass-market appeal affected gameplay (changing from a more complex KH2 like battle system to the simpler one we see in FFXV).>Nomura's team was constantly taken away to finish XIII, then XIV and then help again with ARR. His game was never in constant development like some morons think it was, because more than half of the time he didnt even have a team. With no team or deadline he thought of new ideas like any director would in that time to keep the ball rolling. Square restructured like 3 times during that period and in an effort to fast track production; they told Nomura to start working on both Kingdom hearts 3 and FF7 Remake. All the production work done thus far was given to Tabata with Nomura overseeing the transfer. Tabata who unfortunately was a layman of a director and a mediocre one at that.>Tokyo Team anon's comments>I'm surprised Stellafag didn't pick up on this but other KH2FM/Versus team devs worked on XIV or under Yoshi P during Endwalker apart from Ohdachi and how many other KH2FM devs that weren't former FFXI team members also worked on Parasite Eve 2 when all of them were known as Square's Osaka Team. Yes, even the guy who (note, no longer) works at DeNA for Pokémon Masters after wasting his battle design talent in XV after KH2FM and early Versus is from Osaka, everyone's former favorite battle director Yuichi Kanemori
>>738866021her NuTifaness is very noticeable in this pic, looks nothing like Jennifer Connelly anymore.
>>738865683>>738865985>there isn't even any censorship, you're retarded>okay there is some censorship, but it was necessary>and censorship is good actually, we love censorship>no one even notices that it's censored, why do you even care? >literally no one cares that the game is censored>you're brown if you care that the game is censored
>>738866130>TL;DR for Stellafag Writeup, Side Black (Part 2)>The black image AKA Stellafag writeup Part 2 talks about why changes were made to pander/appeal to the Western (North US American) market and how they ensured success and the longevity of the FF brand along with how Nomura felt about these changes.>Nomura was incredibly pissed that the original, dark and chuuni as fuck Versus 13 was dumped for making a product with mass market appeal thanks to changing sensibilities in the western market, as such, he included links to the corporate politics that led to it in Kingdom Hearts 3 via Verum Rex, an in-universe video game. Stellafag speculates the next game will be Verum Rex and it'll be a retelling of how the corporate politics of square that led to the downfall of his baby (Versus).>Stellafag says that Versus was decringed into 15 to save the Final Fantasy brand at the cost of removing everything Nomura wanted to put in it in terms of story and gameplay like Kingdom Hearts combat and all the dark shit you saw in 2000s anime which became cringe in 2010 so it could sell outside of Japan and save the Final Fantasy brand. It made Japanese games okay because it saved Square financially. Forspoken is now the fruit of Nomura's pain and suffering.>13 turned off a lot of consumers, it was expected to be a BIG success and a lot of money went into the trilogy. Nomura wanted Versus to be a more serious story about contemporary modern day problems [compare: 12, Vagrant Story, 14, 16, Code Geass, Gundam, Death Note] but SE felt this was too risky, would cut out certain markets like China and risk being another failure. XV was made readily appealing to non-FFags not fans in general and overall separated itself from 13. But sales weren't good enough and consumers didn't stick around while long time fans felt the game was lacking. Elements of Versus got recycled into KH3 and Nomura took cancellation of the project hard.
>>738865982I'm already picturing touching Aerith's soft lips with mine.
>>738866130>>738866237>What is fact and what is fiction? (Assorted side comments)>Stellafag is trying to explain why Versus XIII was changed to FFXV. They believe it was to get more widespread appeal, especially from western gamers that were used to playing games with easy to digest writing. They also talk about how Nomura being taken off of Versus XIII is similar to Takahashi and Saga being taken off of Xenosaga 2.>Was the Xenosaga/Xenogears comparison a necessary part of it anon?>I think it helps to make a comparison to another creator being taken off a project they've put a lot of time and thought into. Personally I think he Nomura took the situation too seriously. It's certainly hard when something you're passionate about gets taken away from you, but this is an industry geared towards selling products primarily. And unless you're the boss you don't get to decide what the company sells.>There was one guy named [GameFAQs user] Yuriev/AC [who] wrote the famous Xenosaga/Xenogears Study Guide (Blogspot archive) that (noted Xeno fan) Stellafag pretty obviously [took] inspiration from. That said Yuriev was set to throw Soraya Saga under the bus when she and Takahashi got the boot for how she reacted after Xenosaga got Tabata'd. That's probably why Stellafag just won't shame Tabata for what he did when Nomura and his vision for Versus XIII was dropped for XV.>In the earlier days of Kingdom Hearts Nomura was actually able to deliver a vision based on those trailers. Even birth by sleep tied things together as well. Whatever you think of Nomura's ideas and execution, it's only FFXV that turned into some one dimensional dull crap about kings with a completely botched aesthetic. [Because FFXIII made anime plotlines cringe and in the case of XIV, gameplay in Japanese games was rejected]>"Oops our baby fucked up. Time to cannibalize this asshole's pet project to save our baby."> - ex-CEO Yoichi Wada and ex-CFO turned now-ex-CEO Yosuke Matsuda
>>738844251Wrong, RPGs were the first open world games.
I refuse to play these. psp crisis core was the last good ff7 game I played. I don't want more of it unless we get more genisis.
>>738866328>>738866237>>738865672>Xenogears Perfect Works is to Takahashi and Soraya as Versus XIII is to their eldest son (loljk but you all know what I mean) Nomura. Takahashi said Xenoblade 2 was supposed to show "if you just change your thinking a bit, there's such a colorful world out there." This was to his kids, I'm sure, but I also wonder if he was also trying to cheer up his eldest son after his Square mismanagement took away his project (kek). People theorize this is why Verum Rex exists in KH3.>The Xenogears and Xenosaga comparison exists in Stellafag Writeup, Side Black because Tetsuya Takahashi and Soraya Saga are the most similar to Tetsuya Nomura in style among other former and current Square developers. Takahashi and Soraya are themselves two of Nomura's closest friends which is why Nomura said yes to working on Xenoblade 2. ... and Stellafag using it helps us understand what Nomura felt when he was taken off the project.>Takahashi had the lowest self-esteem of his life and Soraya lapsed into suicide ideations that started with an unrelated incident after online harassment [faulted] her for being fired from her project along with her husband, one they co-created. Nomura was depressed enough to buy 2 cats after he was removed from Versus 13 but he was still furious enough for his anger to explode when Square made him change engines for KH3's development from Luminous to Unreal Engine 4.>Years have gone by, and you're right anon they're a lot happier now. In fact Takahashi seems to have done some self-reflection on his part. I don't have the specifics down since I never played it but he uses the Zohar and various reflections on creating virtual worlds as the Architect in the ending of Xenoblade 2. It's likely Nomura played Xenoblade 2 and then was so moved by the ending the Versus Epic came back within him or maybe Takahashi was speaking to Nomura through the game since he knows exactly what his fellow Tetsuya felt.

>>738842659>combat>What will become of the Tokyo Team?>Pic related. Theoryfagging assumes all of them have been pulled away from other projects to work on either 7 Rebirth, KH4, or FF16.>But not-Tokyo Team anon's understanding is that the battle system developers went to 13 and the level designers went to 14. TTA-san also added:>Many Versus devs were asked to work on 13, 14 1.0, and then The Last Remnant around that time. Several Versus assistant directors were even working on Crystal Tools.>UPDATE: Versus 13 VFX director Shuichi Sato is also VFX director on 16.>Masato Yagi of The Last Remnant said that after TLR got released, he was assigned to the Tokyo Team on Versus afterward. He likely worked on the 2011 build, which only happened because staff was freed up after 13, 14 1.0 and TLR got released in late 2009.>There was a much larger collection of developers from KH2 being sorted into CBU1 or 3. I think this is more relevant since it addresses where the big names went like Kanemori, or Abe or Kujiraoka. Even Jun Akiyama. I didn't know an FF12 dev was a Tokyo Team member until TTA-san said all this.>Update: Takeo Kujiraoka was sorted into CBU3 along with other many KH2 devs and even KH2 devs that worked on FF15.>Update-2: Masanori Sato and Daisuke Sase are on Rebirth for level and lead boss battle design, Yuji Abe on Ever Crisis.>Update 3: Kujiraoka is also on Dawntrail.>Tokyo Team anon also missed that Mitsunori Takahashi has also been absent from Nomura projects since he was credited on patents for 7R's battle system. But there is an equal chance he might be working on Rebirth and not 16.>Update: he isn't. He either left Square or is working on KH4.>For more clues, look at the links between TLR/7R and KH1/KH2, the 13 games/7R and KH1/KH2, FF14 from 1.0/7R and after to KH1/KH2, Days/coded and NEO/7R, FF11 and KH2/7R, and even FF12 and KH1/7R.>Update: Links between FF14/16 and KH2/7R must now be considered too.

Division 4 is also known as the Osaka Team.>Update-3: KH4's reuse of Reaction Commands also suggests Kanemori was rehired.

>>738866571>What will become of the Tokyo Team? (Part 3)>It's funny too because if Nojima is to be believed, Versus was finally ready to get out of dev hell in 2011-2012, the script was finished, Nomura finally had a proper team to work with even if they weren't Tokyo Team [KH2, TLR, and FF12 devs], the project shifted to next-gen so they got a fresh start, everything seemed well until Wada dumped 7R on Nomura without consulting anyone then replaced him with Tabata who wasn't even involved in the project. Many veteran devs followed Nomura so now Luminous has no clue what to do with Versus, on top of that he makes them scrap Ebony in favor of Luminous which was being developed alongside the game because that worked so well last time with Crystal Tools and 13.>Pic related is the Tokyo Battle Team pre-Final Mix.>Barry repeatedly insists that despite the obvious shakeup, it's the same team. But key devs were demoted. Yuichi Kanemori, battle director (turned) lead enemy programmer left after Duscae while (KH2) grunts such as Takayuki Kanbayashi suddenly got lead roles despite no experience because Tabata wanted to flatten the hierarchy.>He also says if Tokyo Team lackeys are there, it's a Tokyo Team game and better than Versus (... as) Nomura's team was incompetent until Tabata stepped in and made everything work.>Reminder that the people more deserving of Forspoken's battle system direction were office administrators during their time in Luminous. These are:>Taisuke Ooe, KH2 Lead Battle Animator, 15 Buddy System and AI>Takayoshi Nakazato, 7 Battle Planner, Dirge Director, Versus Planning Director, 15 Development Manager>Realistically this all stems from the fucking disaster that was 13, and the decision to move Nomura off 15 which nuked their upper staff.>Before Barry replies to me, remember half the leads on Versus quit after Tabata was brought on because Nomura is the only man in all of Square Enix who's autism has resulted in a maxed CHA stat.

>>738861739The plot? I really don't like how they mess with the pacing. Theres a bunch of moments that would have been more impactful if they were handled more concisely. I was relatively emotionally invested when Aerith turned herself in to Shinra to save Marlene and subsequently got thrown in to 5 hours of filler garbage.Theres also moments like the tense boat trip being turned in to to a card game tournament resort that I don't like, as it doesn't make sense in the plot they're telling (the part is being chased by Shinra and it's a Shinra boat). The tension from the Shinra Mansion is non existent and I really didn't like the Cait Sith subplot.
>>738866628>What will become of the Tokyo Team? (Part 4)>Takeo Kujiraoka has only ever worked closely inside Creative Studio 1, the Kitase Unit. (FF16 is CS3)>The content of the interview follows the same template as Suzuki-san. Namely his experience in action games for 16 years. His credit is similar as Ryota Suzuki, but this time listed as Battle Content Leader instead of Battle Director.>What does it mean? Takeo Kujiraoka started at Square as a battle designer on Kingdom Hearts 2 [under Nomura], then proceeded to become a battle designer on Dissidia, and the battle director of Dissidia 012. He was also one of many [battle] designers on 13 and then directed the Team Ninja-developed Dissidia arcade game. Dissidia Arcade ended development back in February, therefore was potentially free to move on other projects.>I thought the wording of Battle Content Leader is curious, so I checked the credits of most recent Square games. This wording has only ever applied in recent FF14 expansions. 7 Remake, KH3 and other CS1 games have never listed a Battle Content Designer or Leader.>Of course, this is not 100% confirmed and is still speculation, but the similarities are there.https://www.resetera.com/threads/takeo-kujiraoka-kh2-dissidia-battle-designer-is-potentially-battle-content-leader-of-ff16-dmc5-designer-ryota-suzuki-still-battle-director.344731/By famed Matsuno fan and Whisper of Stellafag Dreamboum (pro-Versus, Kujiraoka is Lead Combat /System/ Designer and /DLC Director/)>“The Kingdom Hearts team at Square Enix has been especially helpful in contributing to those real-time combat and boss battles,” Yoshida said. “It can be said that the battles in ‘FFXVI’ are in some ways a culmination of the company’s past experiences.”https://www.washingtonpost.com/video-games/2022/06/21/final-fantasy-16-naoki-yoshida-square-enix/By Yoshi-P for The Washington Post (The Figure That Lies Asleep in The Fantasy)Kujiraoka also helped on Dawntrail after 16.

(Part 6)Did you know that this team only worked on Versus 3 months a year from 2009 to 2012?2009 to 2012 were also the KH spinoff years, but 13, 14 1.0 and 14 2.0 needed every dev competent in 3D game design to get it off the ground. This meant Nomura was hamstrung in Tokyo but achieved a lot more in Osaka because his team members couldn't work with him even if he wanted them to. I read that he was doing KH3 tests in UE3 during 2012-2014 at that and at least one ex-Square dev says on LinkedIn says 7R actually goes back to 2013 on the same engine tests (probably when Mitsunori Takahashi did work for it too before he left).Nomura was pulling from every available team in addition to his KH2 and Dirge core team but a curious development was getting Matsuno/Ivalice/FF12 and Crystal Chronicles/SaGa/TLR devs [because of their experience with complex battle systems, weapon types and 3D action game design]. Many of the same people from those teams worked with him afterward on KH3 and 7R. These were dropped in 13.Versus dev timeline:>13 ended development late in 2009.>14 1.0 needed help from 2010 to 2011.>14 2.0 was being conceived in 2011 but it really got off the ground in 2012.That's also why Nomura put out the most fleshed out Versus trailer in 2011 when he had the most manpower. The three-month thing is a minimum range but I'm sure he got more stuff done maybe around six months.Update not by TT anon: Nomura needed people who knew how to create combat with multiple weapon types (Legend of Mana/SaGa) and model realistic environments (TLR). Not surprised he got the guy who made the Gambit system (the exact 12 dev) to help out [and] Versus was going to be so fast you could barely keep up with it. But I find Masato Yagi and the other 12 writers intriguing. Maybe Nomura needed more people who could write realistic situations? Only 2 Versus event planners with resume gaps worked on KH and 4 worked on TLR. 2 on FM5.
Everything else aside, I am thankful this game us this swimsuit for Tifa
>>738834863If you want to be extremely disappointed then yeah....buy it....I could write almost an essay worth of text telling you how badly paced it is, how areas are cut whilst others made pointlessly longer, the butchered VA they did to Red, The rushed ending, the entire fucking retarded shit with Zacks side story, how all weapons are just green goldfish now, Cloud being a retard, Tifa being a retard, Being forced to wait ages till Yuffie joins etc.Your buying this for a switch 2 so it's already going to struggle to run. Do you really want to waste 70 hours on this when there's so many better gamed to play

>>738867285I think they're going to do something utterly retarded and let you play as Sephiroth in select scenarios
>>738867285AerithZackCissneiRufusRocheGlennGenesisKyrie (the one I actually want)
>>738867216it was fun to do. I'm looking forward to making new mods for part 3
>>738834863It's fantastic. /v/ just has incredibly shit taste
>>738866995They could always pussy the fuck out again and pretend the fight with Zack at the end of Rebirth didn't happen. Or do the same storybeat but not around Nibelheim (or only partially) but around Aerith dying.But that would be fucking lame, imo.
>>738867285Zack probably? Once Cloud gets turned into a retard with mako (again, lol) the timelines could get merged with Zack stepping in to fill his role for a while. But if it's supposedly actually someone completely new, this anon already put in most contenders: >>738867432>Cissnei is a former Turk >Roche is gay and a fun character albeit too retarded imo to be something other than a motorycle homosexual>idk, Zangan is technically alive?
If you ever start thinking:>"I wonder what..."about Part 3, just don't. Nothing means anything. Nomura is a hack. Besides, you're going to like whatever happens regardless of how stupid it is. Why even speculate? Why even go through this charade as if you actually care what happens in Part 3. Just tell everyone right now that you already like it and that it's already GotYaY because that's how you truly feel and that's who you will make yourself feel no matter what they decide to do.
>>738867550
>>738867285Female Chadley (she cute)
>>738868108>"I'd like to order seconds!"Oh yeah, that reminds me. Did this mean fucking ANYTHING, or is this just more nothingness to go on top of everything else that means nothing? Did Nomura know that Rebirth was going to flop and this is a reference to that?
>>738867432to be honest kyrie and cissnei should get in to balance the sausagefest that cid and vincent will bring plus the temporary loss of yuffie to get corneo'd in 1-2 chapters
How did square create the perfect girl?
People should stop complaining about the censorship, just use mods, it's not a big deal.
I just finished jerking off to aerith
>>738868897Anon, there was like an hour 1 fix for the Pixel Remaster fonts that people complained about, and then later there was an official fix, and people are STILL complaining about the Pixel Remaster fonts, and censorship is a much more egregious misstep than a perfectly legible font that some happened to trigger some people who were already looking for a reason to hate the PRs. Censorship and DEI and forced faggotry is enough to make even the most diehard fans admit that it's all fucked.
>>738868897Exactly. The censorship is not a valid criticism. Now that I think about it, I don't think there's any criticism of these games that I'd consider valid.
>>738866884Probably the worst part of the game. The BEST sections are the parts where they actually veer off the path:-Junon-Tifa Lifestream-Last 3/4 hoursI might be the majority, but I went into the game wanting to see the changes that the actions from Remake had, so it was disappointing they really tried to stick to the original story 90% of the time.
>>738868979Aerith is for marriage, not for jerking off.
>>738834912>best FF since 10That's saying very little
>>738868284Considering they actually went back and changed the final line of Remake to fit some themes of Rebirth, who knows. I believe most people think it's some cryptic message about Aerith's death, but who knows.They do show it again near the end of Rebirth, but offer no additional context.
>>738834863If you just want the best experience with the game ignore all side content and mainline the story. You get to fight Gilgamesh if you do it all but that fight is not good enough to justify wasting time on shit content.Just treat the game as a linear action game.
>>738869205Worst part is that whenever they do something wildly different they quickly reset everything to status quo so that the story can continue like nothing happened. Cloud trying to kill Tifa should have way more consequences to the relationships of the characters than it does. Everyone just goes "well he's kinda crazy I guess lmao lets go back on track haha".
>>738871335Tifa didn't care, why do you?
>>738869393Also not big enough
>>738870630>You get to fight Gilgamesh if you do it all but that fight is not good enough to justify wasting time on shit content.The fight what are you even talking about?>shit contentBut the protorelic quests are good
>>738867285>So who will be the all new third playable character?Do you honestly think this leak is real? The roster is already huge.
>>738873352You forgot who Gilgamesh is or something?
>>738872702
Even though I didn't like square fucked up a 1:1 Remake, I feel some respect for them for attempting to change such an iconic story. It better pay off.
>>738873606i meant "the fight was great"
>>738873792It is a good fight I agree. The horrible dogshit you have to get through to get to it makes the fight not worth it.
>>738873716Sad we need mods to get a Tifa with her real proportions.
>>738834863I wouldn't buy the Switch 2 version just because they had to remove clutter in most rooms just for it to run okay, but I do think you should play some version of the game.
I miss Aerith.
