That exact scene was when I knew I would not enjoy the game. Those symbols always perplexed me as a kid when I first played it, I always wondered what they were measuring or whether it was meant to be confusing to the characters too. So, this scene was the first thing I thought of when starting a new game. After that point I knew right away what I'd end up seeing: A "remake" whose authenticity is attempted only as far as character design goes. It's a real shame, there were some bits that I liked about it.

This is pretty accurate to the original intro. Midgar is a mix of old world and new. Old paved streets and lamps, 1950's cars, etc. You can hate on the remake all you want but they got some parts right.

Why would I ever try to have a nuanced discussion about this game? Especially on this board of all places? The second you say something someone doesn't agree with they will focus on that while ignoring the rest of what you have to say. The FFVII fanbase is unironically an insane cult on both ends and an absolute black hole of honest discussion.

Don't like something from the remakes? >Damn! You must have wanted a 1 for 1 exactly as is remake! Go play the actual game if that's what you want!

Say something positive about the remakes?
>It's slop. It's worse in every single way! There is absolutely nothing that can be improved or fleshed out in any way. You are just retarded cattle

It's fucking insanity. FFVII fans get what they deserve, which is a fanbase full of schizos and deranged shippers

>>
>>741600456
That's because they have been raised on the idea that in order to be a "good RPG" you need to have roll slop and parry slop be the determining factor rather than actual decent art direction or gameplay. As long as the MAIN FORM OF GAMEPLAY is "roll or parry to dodge all incoming damage" that is all these contrarians want. E33 is evidence of this. Everyone whining and crying that FF7R&R is not "turn based" and is "soulless" to the original all seem to love E33 saying it is "classic Final Fantasy" when E33 is nothing but parry slop and roll slop with 3 niggas lined up in a row.
Do your stats matter? Nope. Not at all. You can beat the game with having only 100 HP because you can parry and roll slop everything. The only thing that matters is MAXING YOUR ATTACK POWER WOOOOO!
This is why all criticism of FF7R&R is in bad faith at best. Builds matter, your stats matter, and endgame content is punishing without seeming unfair it you miss ONE button press. Nothing would have made these contrarians happy because all they want is roll and parry slop and think "RPGs" are that now. Fromsoftware ruined an entire generation of gamers.

You can beat the original FFVII at level 1. You can beat a good handful of Final Fantasy games at base level. You can beat FFVII remake at base level if you really wanted to. Is it safe to say stats don't matter here too when you could theoretically beat these games with superior strategy or mechanical exploits instead?

Oh i'm actually playing through this again right now. I got as far as Aerith being kidnapped years ago when it first came out.

Honestly it holds up better than I remember, maybe i'm just less smooth-brained. Combat is quite easy but not too boring. My one complaint is AI controlled companions build their ATB so slowly it's a pain in the ass. I get that the idea is to push you to swap between characters, but it's hard to keep track of your health levels and easy to find yourself in a scenario where all your healers are just standing around. Feels like the most optimal way to play is to switch to a character, build a bar, switch OFF of them and THEN order them to cast Cura. because the AI will target the active player.

Oh, and the time jannies are bad too, of course. Not as egregious as I remember but the narrative still screeches to a halt every time they show up. What a completely pointless story element. They could have simply had Sephiroth hallucinations quietly taunt Cloud constantly, fucking with the players perceptions, if they wanted to play up their twist.

Does game 2 have the time jannies?

Holy fucking retard. Final Fantasy 7/Midgar is a form of Dieselpunk, not Cyberpunk.

They are not even purist fags. They do not know the lore or even the story of FF7. They saw the remake as a way to "get cool with the old folk" and say they played the original without actually having done so.

>>741601251
This is because the original has an art style, so when stylized characters act exaggerated, it's expected. The remake does not have an art style, instead falling for the meme of hyper-realism. If the realistic characters act in non-realistic ways, it feels jarring. Which is already a retarded decision, because Barrett has a minigun mounted to his arm, and Cloud carries a sword the size of his own body.

You can't compare a remake of say, Red to Fire Red the same way as FF7 because FF7 is from pre-rendered background to full 3D realism, while Fire Red keeps the grid layout of the original. Certain things are going to be changed to accomodate the new environment.
And no, I don't think realism is bad. You dont actually want a remake. You just want a remaster.

>E33 seethe out of nowhere
retarded argument, completely debunked every single time it's mentioned by the simple fact that that overwhelming majority of people are not going to be able to dodge and parry every single thing first time, they are going to get hit, and so they are going to need to spec into defense somewhat. i had lune on my team the entire game as a healer. if you really want you could spec everything into attack power and restart fights over and over again until you nail the combo pattern, dying and having to restart every time you miss a single parry, repeating the same battle for an hour. you could do that. that isn't what most people are going to do. you can trivialize almost any game in some way or another along those lines. you can trivialize most RPGs in general like that by grinding arbitrary skills over and over so that you can walk over anything without employing any sort of strategy or team synergy.
