>>744240650remake is way better
Sephiroth if he Texan
>>744240650It will be good no matter what year we are in.
>>744240650no lol
>>744240650It didn’t hold up ten years ago back to when I last played it
>>744242303Top: soulBottom: soulless
>>744242303>supposed to take place in a flat, desolate desert>remake : it's a canyon
>>744240650no but 8 does because the characters have realistic proportions
It mogs nugames just with setting.
>>744240650Once you leave midgar, everything falls apart. Sephuson or whatever is a lame villian, Shinra is cool and should have been the main threat the entire time (industry vs nature). Its babies first "rpg".
>>744242525Too bad you can break ff8 in an hour and then the game just becomes a visual novel.
>>744242303>top>optional superboss you can find strolling around that only lasts like 7m>bottom>1h long bloated mandatory setpiece
>>744242802Ruby Weapon in 7 minutes? Ummm. It has 1 000 000 HP. Is that really the hill you choose to die on?
>>744240650Yes. Played it for the first time recently, and it is still an amazing game. Try not to spoil yourself if you haven't been spoiled already. I went in more or less blind and it definitely helped
I had fun with it but if you didn't grow up with that era, you'll hate it.
>>744243117wrong
>>744242941Kotr. Ruby lasts less than 7 minutes. Same for Emerald, but you gotta prepare for their gimicks, or you will die. Airetam and tentacles.
>>744240650yep its still a better game system with more cohesion in its plot and still that magic period between old school final fantasy and new shit.
>>744243030What is there to spoil? The reveal is probably the amongst most known twist in gaming history
>>744240650no, it held up in 2025 but not in 2026
zoomer be like:>ykes PS1 graphic LE BADalso zoomer:>zamn Deltarune and Roblox be really lit frfr
>>744243264KotR is not gonna get you there in 7 minutes. Hero Drink x 2 with W-item, Omnislash with mime and an optional Hades is gonna speed things up dramatically.
>>744240650It's fun in the moment but it's not going to leave a lasting impact if it isn't your first RPG. I barely remember a thing about 7 and I played it both when I was young and again last year ago. I was shocked reading a thread that Cloud wasn't in SOLDIER and that was just weeks after finishing it again. Not a single thing left an impact on me besides hating the minigames and Yuffie.
>>744243528The hell it won't. W summon and mime. I've done it.
>>744243387I mean you can compare those lego graphics to the Deltarune and there is plenty of reasons they can use against you.And I'm pretty sure they are only talking about FFVII not the other games because of the graphical style. Roblox is something they said alot to be similar to VII as well.
>>744242634Jenova is the main villain
No
It’s literally the best game ever made. It holds up over OoT.
>>744246578>It holds up over OoT.Like fuck it does.Like, I respect what it did, but Ocarina is on a whole other level of actually thought out and well put together.
>>744240650Graphically, probably not but everything else, yes. The game that still hold up are FF8 and FF9.
>>744246679OoT has aged horribly
>>744243557What's wrong with Yuffie?
>>744246994All the best things it does hold up super well. It has fantastic lighting, integration of music and sound effects you also get to play with, a varied and highly interactive world that you get to freely explore over many times though various circumstances, absolutely solid action mechanics that defined how 3D actions games would play, combined item gating and free progression that allows for many possible paths through the game as problems often have multiple solutions etc.FFVII is cool, and has a very well presented story, but only does so much with most of what are static backdrops you walk around and interact with by pressing O.
>>744247356Her leg is (seemingly?) broken
>>744240650The story is probably the best thing about it. Everything else is pretty much weaker than 6. Pretty good for baby's first RPG though.
>>744240650It held up 10 years ago so probably.
>>744240650They can't remaster prerendered backgrounds for some reason, so the appreciation for that style will be lost in zoomers.
I'm replaying it 100% after a casual run 10+ years ago to catch up on the whole Compilation shebang before Revelation comes out. My perspective as a zoomer is that the game is still very aesthetically charming despite the presentation obviously not holding up anymore, the story is both not as tight and as convoluted as people remember it to be, and the materia system is very cool as It gives you absolute freedom and seems to have a pretty high skill ceiling, but the game is way too easy and blue magic absolutely busted for any complex build or strategy to be needed for most of the game, it's a "press A to continue"/visual novel type of experience.Overall not the worst aged game, and can definitively see how the scope and presentation made it stand out for the time, but it's not gonna Blow anyone's mind nowdays and it's pretty dull to play.Also the minigames fucking suck, who thought it was a good idea having the player go back and forth the world map every 5 minutes of story progression just to play the shitty tower defense at Fort Condor?
>>744240650Yes. I don't see why it wouldn't, JRPGs haven't really changed. They're still making games like FFVII and it remains one of the best of its kind.
>>744248313>who thought it was a good idea having the player go back and forth the world map every 5 minutes of story progression just to play the shitty tower defense at Fort Condor?>he actually tried to get all the fort condor prizesAnon... Why?Very few people actually do that, even people playing with a guide knowing it changes often. It just changes a bit so if you happen to go back to Fort Condor you get something out of it. The game doesn't expect you to do it and there's little reward.
>>744243318fuck
>>744248313>who thought it was a good idea having the player go back and forth the world map every 5 minutes of story progression just to play the shitty tower defense at Fort Condor?...what?
>>744243528KotR deals max 130 000 damage. You need to cast it 8 times to kill it
>>744248393Because I'm an autist for completionist shit like that, and likely won't replay it, so I want it to be one and done.
