    Much more than a “remake”.

    Final Fantasy VII has always been a lot more than a simple game in the well-known brand; as we know, it can be considered a franchise on its own, that has spawned different titles across various platforms and even CG movies, leaving some of those titles stuck in certain consoles for a very, very long time.

    Final Fantasy VII has always been a lot more than a simple game in the well-known brand; as we know, it can be considered a franchise on its own, that has spawned different titles across various platforms and even CG movies, leaving some of those titles stuck in certain consoles for a very, very long time.

    What Square-Enix calls the “Remake Project” I believe intends to produce a cohesive experience, taking parts and bits from all that Compilation work we know exists, and shaping it into a lot more than a mere “remake” because, without getting into deep spoilers, yes, “Remake” is a lot more than just what we may think, it’s a subtitle for the first game, which indicates the direction the story in the game is headed to, more so than alluding to being the original game, but remade, with modern graphics.

    Certainly, most of the stuff that happened in the original story for the Midgar portion, does happen in Remake, for sure, and it’s even greatly expanded with incredible results: Animation work is excellent on the characters, their facial expressions do tell a lot of their intentions without even the need to put it into words, and the English voice over is quite fantastic.
    These characters feel like they’re alive and they show their emotions pretty well and, if we pay attention, it’s an important part of the story-telling in this game, how the different characters interact with each other.

    Let’s get a bit into PC specific port details, and let’s be straightforward here: this amazing game deserves a better PC version. I’m not saying it runs badly or it’s broken in any shape or way, it runs pretty nicely on my Ryzen 5 3600 and RTX 3060 Ti and, at 1620p DLDSR, certainly looks stunning and runs quite above 60 FPS at all times, but the PC port is pretty barebones: there’re only a couple Graphics Settings to choose from, and barely any performance scalability going from High to Low well…due to the lack of meaningful settings.
    I felt quite disappointed when the game initially launched, half a year ago, on the Epic Games Store, looking at the PC specific settings, and nothing has changed now, for the Steam release.

    Besides that, the price of the game is also quite insane for a standard PC digital edition: 80€ is not a common price among PC games but, fortunately, sales are a thing and there are various and official places to get games these days…so my advice is to look for the best price that suits your needs, no need to pay that much for a standard digital game when sales exist.

    One other amazing aspect in this game is the Soundtrack, which is absolutely incredible and I don’t think there’s any track in this game that I do not like, they’re all great, of course the expected favorites are still fantastic too and masterfully recreated for this game.

    Gameplay is pretty fluid and responsive and I never get tired of the slow motion mode when opening the menus in battle, it’s a nice effect, completely optional if we don’t want to use it…but it’s really cool and nicely implemented.

    Overall, I think this game nails down pretty well what I was expecting, and even surpassed all I could have thought of, in a good way.
    Knowing how the original story goes is a plus when playing this new game, it’s not really needed but surely rewarding to know all the backstory from the original game, especially when doing more play-throughs, you will end up picking up more subtle details that have been planted into this game’s plot and its characters, many, many references and subtle hints in here.

    It is a plot that leaves us with many questions, lots theories that we can think of, but the hints are all there in the game, and even more so for those who know all the stuff from the Compilation.

    The Intermission story is also very nice albeit a bit short, but it clearly shows a few improvements certainly fruit of player feedback, especially regarding combat mechanics: Yuffie is a great character in this version of the game and she plays great, especially in Aerial Combat, a low point in the regular campaign, for sure. Pretty thrilled to see what they do for the other characters we’ll get to play in Rebirth and beyond, they’ll surely add even more layers to the already solid combat foundation.

    I am excited for Crisis Core Reunion, knowing that they’re intentionally remaking the visuals for that one, to make it more in line with Remake.

    Would give a 10 if the PC port wasn't as barebones, but it pretty much is a must play game for fans of VII as a whole.    … Expand

    Yes, this game is very linear and on top it has some pacing problems so a 10 might seem a bit generous but if you are patient enough to accept the suboptimal pacing this game is quite an exceptional experience.

I think liked this version more than the original FF7 back in the days (but I have to admit I was mostly impressed by FF6 during its time - I loved that one so much that I tought english to myself just so I could understand the story).

    Good combat, great port. Stunning Graphics + Music + Performance.
    Also a nice story so far. The icing on the cake for me would have been slightly more moral ambiguity (kinda like the Witcher) because you're basically working for a terrorist organization and I feel there was slightly more potential in this topic.

    I'm so glad SE is getting there because I was waiting for a good FF experience for so many years since my childhood.    … Expand

    Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade is a good game. The story is interesting but with some new twists along the way. Whether you are a new or returning fan you will enjoy it. It has catchy music and the combat is your basic JRPG. You may even find it difficult deciding who the best girl is. Some of the optional missions are a bit mundane but thankfully they are optional.

    Ich war nie wirklich Fan der Reihe, weil mir das Gameplay, was ich zwischen guten Story Sequenzen brauche, nicht zugesagt hat. Dann schaue ich doch gleich lieber einen Anime oder eine Serie. Aber hier hat man eine sehr schöne Grafik, super Soundtracks und Action-Gameplay.

    Ich habe Cloud gerne durch die linearen Level gesteuert und bin gern mit Tifa und Astrit durch die Sektoren spaziert, das war immer wirklich sehr schön, wie die Charaktere reden, vor allem die beiden, die reden so kindlich und dabei kann man wunderbar runterkommen, für mich ein Spiel zum Entspannen mit einer schönen Geschichte für´s Auge.

    Gekämpft habe ich auch gerne, entweder einfach nur mit normalen Angriffen drauf und sobald ich dann ein oder zwei Balken hatte, habe ich gerne einen Spezialangriff oder eine Magieattacke eingesetzt. Wenn ich vom ganzen Buttonsmashing mal eine Pause brauchte, habe ich die normale Steuerung einfach vom Spiel übernehmen lassen und gewartet, bis die Balken für meine nächste Magiefähigkeit hatte.

    Die Beschwörungen fand ich auch extrem gut, vor allem den ersten Feuerdämon und die Limitangriffe waren ebenfalls cool. Im Kampf gab es auf jeden Fall immer genug zu tun, zumal man auch zwischen den Charakteren wechseln kann, ich habe sehr gerne Entfesselung, Y, X, X, X mit Tifa eingesetzt, damit habe ich alles klein bekommen.

    Generell nimmt sich das Spiel auch nicht so ernst, das ist wohl voll Final Fantasy und es gibt sehr viel Videospiellogik, auch wenn ich hiervor echt viele gute Games gezockt habe, ist dies mit eins der besten der letzten Jahre und ich freue mich schon sehr auf die ganzen Fortsetzungen und hoffe, das Gameplay wird auch für die kommenden Teile so bleiben oder sich mit dem von FF16 abwechseln, wird bestimmt sehr viel actionreicher, aber dieses entspannte Gameplay ist für mich jetzt voll Final Fantasy.    … Expand

    Oynadığım en zevkli combat bu oyunda olabilir. Sıra tabanlı combat'ın taktikselliği ile gerçek zamanlı kombatın doyuruculuğunun karışımı inanılmaz güzel hissettiriyor. Kızlar da güzel oyundaki

    The PC version already has the improved textures from the PS5 version, but sometimes you'll just notice crappy textures, environments or NPCs that haven’t fully loaded yet, and of course image tearing in some not-so-frequent moments. The PC version is good, but personally I'd reach for the PS5 version which just runs smoother. [Issue#317]

    FF7R is a fantastic reimaging of the iconic title. Refusing to classify itself as a nostalgia act, it expands upon the original narrative in new and exciting ways. The combat system has a seamless fluidity to it, allowing for engaging and entertaining gameplay sequences. Artistically, FF7R retains the level of quality players have come to expect from Square Enix, but it does falter ever so slightly in some environments. The updated rendition of the classic OST is outstanding from start to finish, with the sound design team matching it in every regard.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake is a visual marvel, and the environment focussed story is perhaps more relevant now than ever. The slick gameplay and new story twists make the game worth playing even for old school fans. The game does overstay its welcome, however. And the sidequests are a bit bland. Luckily, the Intergrade chapter largely fixes these complaints. If Square Enix stays that course, then Rebirth promises to be great.
