you know what? I fucking apologize. After seeing all of the pointless 1:1 remakes nintendo has been shitting out like smrpg, ttyd, starfox 64 and now OOT. at least square actually gave us something new and different. yes, almost all of the things they did were fucking retarded, yes the music is a massive downgrade, but I mean, at least they TRIED. They gave us something ultimately more memorable and longlasting than just ffvii again: HD version, even if I wouldve taken it a totally different direction and personally executed nomura with my bare hands.
>>747558437Agreed. Nintendo has lost their plot with their fucking awful art direction as of lately.
ah yes making every face/npc look the same, robbing the game of any soul, adding a shit ton of cutscenes, adding mmo type filler quests. remakes always take more away than they add. its ff15 with a reskin.
>>747558474This is a very organic 2nd post that wasn't typed suspiciously fast right after OP.
FFVII again: HD version is literally what I wanted though. Some new optional boss fights, a hard mode, a few new materias and weapons, some expanded postgame is all it needed to make it perfect. There's a huge window between 1:1 coat of paint and the VII-2 trilogy.
>>747558437Nice try, marketer. I'd rather have a single 1:1 Remake. It's not like the time janny trilogy is any better than plastic/wooden/moist Link.
>triedThey didn't. What they did instead was create a massive cynical cashgrab that worked because their main fanbase now consists of FF14 trannies that worship square religiously and want to larp as "epic final fantasy fans" without having to play these nasty clunky janky outdated games.
>>747558623>FFVII again: HD version is literally what I wanted though.If the Ever Crisis framework had been the 1:1 FFVII Remake, everyone would have been happy, and it probably would have sold just as well while costing drastically less.
a 1:1 remake is completely pointless because I have yet to see a single example of new graphics being better than the old graphics. So it's just a straight up downgrade that kills the soul of the original artstyle while offering nothing new.
>>747558745This may come as a surprise to you, but the people sucking on VII Remake's cock are people who hate XIV. The people buying VII Remake are the people who have been arguing about Tifa and Aerith for 30 years.
>>747558754Im sorry but I cant take those chibi models seriously it looks gay as hell. The OG proportions because it was low poly and you filled in the details in your head, plus you had the bottle models to see the real character designs.
>>747558813Uh huh. Sure. I'm sure huge FF7 fans love seeing it get turned into a souless corporate product for modern audiences.
>>747558876I mostly hate what VIIR did to IP but I'm used to it after 30 years of incredibly gay compilation bullshit, which the trilogy is just more of. But at the same time the ps1 game is my favorite game/media/IP of all time, so it's not like Im going to skip seeing the world and characters with AAA production values and modern combat.
>>747558876>I'm sure huge FF7 fans love seeing it get turned into a souless corporate product for modern audiences.First off, yes, but also you're not wrong that there is a zoomer audience as well who get to be "part of" Final Fantasy VII "just like the first time". It's just that these people mostly fucking hate XIV.Go look at /ffg/ on /vg/ for example. They fucking love VIIR and they fucking hate XIV. There's a schizo here who makes several VIIR threads every day and he fucking hates XIV. And with the VII raid coming to XIV in the next expansion, what is most likely to happen is that people play XIV for it, not that XIV players play Revelation (at least not more than were already playing it, because XIV is not the first or only FF they've played)
>>747558981>I must consoom!!!I'm aware.
>>747558876>for modern audiences.Anon you should check out who still gives a shit about FF7 nowadays, because it's not modern audiences at all.
>>747558437I'm so fucking mad OoT is (most likely) a 1:1 remake. I can beat that game in my sleep, why would I pay like 80 dollars to play it again? The dungeons at least should have been remixed. Some games lend themselves better to 1:1 remakes, but a puzzle/exploration game is not one of them
>make a 40 hour game set exclusively in midgar>oh cool, I'm sure we'll finally get to see the top of the plate or some other sectors of the slums now!>besides a 30 minute cutscene sequence with jessie's family, you dont explore any new parts of the city at all and stick to the exact same 2% of the city you explore in the 5 hour section of the ps1 gamemake it make fucking sense
>>747558437They didn't try. They gave us a pile of shit dressed in the skin of something much better that they don't have the talent to replicate.
>>747558437The story changes they made was to force more Sephiroth where he didn't belong and to better hide the fact we are getting a full game split into three parts with each part full price.
>>747559165>yellow paint>CINEMATIC shit>marvel writing>woke shit and censorship>modern console "gameplay"Clearly not for modern audiences at all.
>>747558437Square was incapable of making a good FF7 remake, every single thing in the cringe compilation has been garbagestill at least it wasn't a redundant remaster
>>747559659I believe he is referring to the fact that the only people still buying VIIR slop are people who consider themselves to be diehard FFVII fans and who are 30+ years old. So the old audience is buying the new slop made for modern audiences, simply because it is named "Final Fantasy VII"
>>747558754>barrets entire midsection is just beltsnah this blows
>>747559967That's how it is though.
>>747559197it's still retarded that miyamoto said>Young people today don’t have the opportunity to play games from 10 years agowhen defending OOT remake considering it's only one of two N64 games available on every home console since, not even accounting the 3DS version
Played through og once a year since it was released and still not played remake. Watched a bit of people playing it on youtube and it just looks like too much of a slog for me. Midgar needed to be fleshed out yes, but not a whole fucking game.
>>747560291>Midgar needed to be fleshed out yes, but not a whole fucking game.Oh you're gonna love this. Midgar was indeed its own entire game, but it did not get fleshed out at all. Like, you don't go anywhere in Remake that you didn't already go in Midgar in the original. Remake is not "the whole Midgar", it's just "the same parts of Midgar that are in the OG"
>>747560367That's what it looked like to me from what i've seen. It also looks like they toned down the grunginess and menacing vibe Midgar had in the original. Remember watching someone get to Wall Market and it was a disappointment, one of the most memorable parts of the og.
>>747560021>remakeI disagree
>>747560021>>747560746next page in the manual. 1 belt
>>747560704Yeah they tried to give Wall Market a jazzy night life feel instead of the original. Like, I think they tried to turn it into a Las Vegas type of thing, likely due to the Honeybee Inn, but when I played the original I didn't get a night life Las Vegas type feel, I got a grungy dingy icky feel and I thought Honeybee Inn was off in its own corner for a reason. That pretty much encapsulates how the Remakes are. Just a bunch of small, minor changes that don't reaaaallly change anything, but that are either completely pointless or the exact opposite of how they were in the original, for no reason at all other than to just be different. Like here is the theme:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZbJoRGfHgc
But I like the SMRPG remake :(
>>747558437kys
>>747558437Fuck off nigger, turn based was when Final Fantasy was at its peak
>>747560270Did Miyamoto forget that NSO Classics are right there?
