    ภาพสวย เนื้อเรื่องน่าติดตาม ตัวละครมีเสน่ห์และน่ารัก คอมแบทก็สนุก ข้อเสียเล็กน้อยคือถ้ารู้จักภาคออริจินอลมาก่อน ถึงจะอินกว่านี้

    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

    Pros-
    Still an excellent game that holds up nicely over the last 2 years
    Seamless controller support is great
    The performance settings are really effective

    Cons-
    Graphics settings could have been more robust
    Performance overall should have been more dependable than it is

    Overall the remake is totally worth it, it's a good game

    Edit:
    Okay i have to adjust my rating, i didn't knew it ends after the fight against Sephiroth, a lot of things are missing from the original title. To be fair, it is surely a lot of hard work to transform all the things into a modern gameplay, let's hope the rest will be in another sequel    … Expand

    know that is personal preference, but i enjoy this game so much more with keyboard+mouse. Everything is just so smooth. Graphics look basically same as PS5 and that is fine by me. What truly matters on PC version is performance and it is pretty solid. People complaining about bad performance should maybe buy new GPU, because GTX 1060 is little bit old by now.

    The classic JRPG was turned into a stupid corridor arcade with minimal interactivity and primitive combat. All that's good about the game are the character figures.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake is a game of highs and lows.

An action RPG which is a “remake” of the original Final Fantasy VII, interestingly, not only is it a genre shift from the first game, but the story itself diverges – and the divergence of the story is a major plot point. It expands on the Midgar section of the original game, a section of the game that took about 8 hours to beat, and turns it into a 40-60 hour long game, all while engaging in a few meta plot twists to keep players familiar with the game guessing how much things will change.

    Unfortunately, this is the heart of the problem of the game: they didn’t know what to expand on, so they expanded on EVERYTHING, even making up a few new sequences. This makes the good parts even bigger and even better, and results in a few new sequences (like a sequence with the Avalanche sidekicks, who were largely a side note in the original game) which really worked well, and added significant characterization – but the game also expanded on the bad parts, resulting in what were previously brief inter-area travel sequences or mini-dungeons becoming two hours long (or longer!) of endless corridors, and some added dungeons that weren’t even in the original game which added nothing to the game but length.

    At its best, it strikes an excellent balance between characterization and humor that was common in 1990s JRPGs, then sort of faded from view. At its worst, it is hours of slogging down corridors and fighting monsters that aren’t very challenging to fight, over and over again.

    The best part of this game is the improvements in characterization. Every single character is more interesting, including the random background Avalanche characters, the Shinra characters, and even the random side characters in the Wall Market. Barret in particular ends up with a sort of almost preacher-esque character, which is really fun to see – doubly so because for all of his bravado and being so big and bad, he’s clearly got issues underneath and is putting on a bit of a show. Tifa’s insecurity comes through much more strongly than it did in the original game, and Cloud ends up with significantly more characterization, being both uncertain and putting on a show of being a badass SOLDIER. Aerith’s personality, too, shines through, with her playful mischief being a major highlight – at least, until she ends up becoming the Cetra Waif, which makes her much less interesting and more subdued (and generic).

    This goes down to the background Avalanche members, who get a lot more characterization, and thus build more of a connection with the player, as well as the random people in Wall Market, including some new characters, including the sadistic masseuse Madam M, a bit character whose interactions with Cloud are absolutely hilarious.

    The introductory sequence, the added characterization for Avalanche members (including a whole chapter that is totally devoted to them), the Aerith meeting all the way through Wall Market, the battle up the pillar to try and defend Sector 7, going up the Shinra building, and the battles at the top of the tower – all of these sequences are improved over the original, and add new context and characterization.

    Unfortunately, this is a game with 18 chapters, and in the end, chapters 3, 5, 6, 8, 10, 11, 13, 14, 15, and 17 all contain very significant padding – meaning that over half the chapters in the game contain significant filler content. Worse, chapters 5, 6, 10, 11, 15, and 17 are basically entirely filler, with the only significant events occurring with the boss fights in them (and sometimes, not even then).

    This is a huge black mark on the game; it is the quality new story content that draws us in, but the vast amount of filler means that it ends up spaced out. Worse, it weakens the story very significantly; half of the game (chapters 5-7, 10 – 12, and 15-18) are all done under very significant time pressure, but each of these three sequences includes not one but *two* filler chapters, where you basically go through a “dungeon” that is just a bunch of corridors or pseudo-corridors. None of these are interesting, and they just bog down the progress of the game while robbing it of the sense of urgency that the pacing of these parts so desperately need.

    Perhaps the saving grace is that the combat of the game is pretty reasonable; while the normal encounters are mostly pretty easy, the game has a few sub-boss type enemies that help mix things up and provide more of a challenge.

    Still, overall, the game feels bloated. It's an improvement over the original overall, but sacrifices pacing in a very real way.

    Overall, it's worth playing if you are a FF7 fan, or are really into action RPGs, but if you aren't a huge fan of those kinds of games, this isn't something you need to go out of your way to experience.    … Expand

    + Voice acting is spot on

    - Wish I had more understanding on the story, more explanations on the whys and hows, too much stuff left unanswered
    - Some fights (particularly the road chases) are painfully long. Not hard, but enemies are just sponges, it just becomes a drag which is sad because there's no skill attached to it, just a matter of patience and not sleeping through it.
    - Story pacing is all over the place, there's chunks that feel that is taking forever and it feels that we're playing a filler just to waste time on it.
    - Photomode is really weak, those filters is just a sham
    - The graphics options are no where to be seen.

    Игра понравилась, но есть недостатки. В частности - крайне детский сюжет без поднимания взрослых тем и прочей жести. И довольно топорная боёвка, очень не понравилось по 20 минут затыкивать одного врага и то, что на персонажах не отображается никаких повреждений. За всю игру нет даже ни одной капли крови.Игра понравилась, но есть недостатки. В частности - крайне детский сюжет без поднимания взрослых тем и прочей жести.

    Boş koridorlarda dakikalarca ilerlemek çok sıkıcı. Açık dünya olması gereken yerlerde dar koridorlardan ilerliyoruz. Yürü baba yürüyelim, Rafet El Roman klibi gibi. Hatta bazen oyun gereği karakter öyle yavaş yürüyor ki çıldırdım oralarda. Aynı sinir bozucu düşman tipleriyle tekrar tekrar karşılaşmak bir yerden sonra bayıyor.

    Dövüş mekanikleri, sıra tabanlı gibi istediğimiz zaman durdurup istediğimiz karaktere komut verme ya da ona geçme şeklinde ilerliyor. Ya da direkt kendimiz kontrol ediyoruz. Bu konudaki mobilitesi iyi. Yetenekler, büyüler, yapılan kombinasyonlar bir yere kadar iyi gidiyor ama oyunun ortalarından sonra yeni pek bir şey olmuyor. Bu da oyunun süresine kurban gitmiş maalesef.

    Oyunun en güzel yanı boss savaşları. Çok uzun sürdüğü için kaybedip baştan başlamak bazen çok can sıkıcı olsa da genel olarak beğendim. Hepsi birbirinden farklı olduğu gibi, kendi içindeki fazları da çok çeşitli. Çoğu da ciddi anlamda zorlayıcı. Evle dövüştüğümüz savaşı muhtemelen asla unutmayacağım.

Los personajes que han introducido como novedad son una basura sacada de Kingdom Hearts, absurdos en un Final Fantasy, casi insultantes para la vieja escuela. En resumen, si eres fan del original y de la vieja escuela esta bien para rememorar y ver la actualización pero en mi opinión y sin hype no tiene ningún incentivo jugarlo para alguien que no conoce el universo Final Fantasy.

Et de l'attente, il en aura fallu : l'exclu d'un an console s'est rallongée, et le jeu sort presque deux ans après sur PC : c'est pas grave, il ont sûrement pris tout ce temps pour fignoler le jeu ! Ha, vous n'êtes tellement pas prêts...

    Certains pensent qu'il ne faut pas mettre le prix dans la balance, moi je pense que ça fait un peu partie : on n'a pas les mêmes critères d'exigence sur un jeu à 40balles qu'à 80 ! Et ce FF7R est justement le premier à passer la barre des 80. Ça va forcément être parfait, 9 mois de retard et un prix plus élevé que les autres jeux.

    Rentrons dans le vif du sujet, côté technique c'est une catastrophe : les choix de graphismes sont Résolution des textures Haut/Bas, et Résolution des ombres Has/Bas, et c'est TOUT. Pas de réglages d'anti-aliasing, de distance de vue, de qualité des modèles, quantité d'effets, etc...rien. Pour couronner le tout, le choix du framerate est 60 ou 120, pas de déblocage complet du framerate (merci les portages consoles moisis). Et pire, le jeu a un système de définition adaptative qui va faire tourner le jeu en basse def si vous n'atteignez pas le framerate cible. On se retrouve avec un jeu flou qui doit tourner à 80% de la définition native parfois, sans pouvoir désactiver ça. Il faut modder le jeu pour désactiver ça, et affiner le jeu aussi. C'est hallucinant ! 80 balles et le portage PC est en kit, faut le modder soi-même pour avoir des textures jolies et non baveuses...
    Le jeu est un couloir, dont le level design est d'une pauvreté innommable. Ce ne sont que des couloirs avec une seule route. C'est simple : si y'a un embranchement, alors le mauvais chemin sera une impasse au bout de 50mètres avec au bout un coffre ou une matéria. Basique. Je ne demande pas des mondes ouverts à tout va, mais là on passe d'un extrême à l'autre.

    Les combats sont très grisants, le système d'ATB remis au goût du jour est dynamique, y'a toujours de l'action. Même avec une barre d'ATB vide, il reste les coups normaux, chargés, les esquives, les blocages, permuter d'un perso à l'autre... Là dessus, c'est du tout bon !

    Côté histoire/scénario, c'est ... mitigé. L'histoire principale et ses personnages sont soignés, par contre pour le peu de moment où le jeu nous propose des quêtes secondaires bah... on sent que ça a été rajouté à la va vite. Des quêtes fedex exploitant la quintessence même de ce qui est horripilant, alors que c'est en décalage complet avec le jeu et son level design : jamais on ne revient en arrière, jamais on ne parle à un personnage puis l'autre puis re l'un en mode ping-pong, seules certaines quêtes annexes nous font faire ça.
    Cependant, j'ai aussi réalisé des quêtes prestigieuses, telles que ramenerer des chats à quelqu'un, trouver un vieux, ramener des trucs à des gosses contre 1 ou 3 gils, me déguiser en femme.... Enfin bref, je sais que FF7 original n'était pas toujours très mature, mais étaient-ils obligés d'exploiter cette partie, au point que j'en vienne à me poser la question "mais ces quêtes là, elle ont été écrites par des enfants ? C'est le fils ou la fils du scénariste, c'est pas possible".

    Ha, on retrouve les invocations pour le plus grand bonheur ! Là, c'est personnel, mais j'ai été triste de ne pas voir d'apparition grandiloquentes, avec des entités d'une taille surréaliste, et des effets de lumière et de pyrotechnie dantesques ! Non, les invocations bah... on les invoque, elles arrivent sur le champ de bataille (genre FF8 ou FF10 même), elles ne prennent pas de coup mais on dirait un compagnon invoqué façon MMO, en plus grand et plus efficace bien sûr. Un peu triste, mais elles sont là

    Au final, ce FF7R ben... c'est une semi-déception. Bien entendu, le fanboyisme me fait remonter la note d'un point ou deux. Mais la technique ultra pourrie (on est dans le podium des AAA portés de la console au PC avec le moins de soin), le level design ultra couloir et les quêtes dignes d'un enfant de dix ans.... mouaif. Heureusement qu'on a un système de combat grisant, des personnages bien modélisés, une VF de qualité, et l'univers Final Fantasy ! Mais perso, j'achète ça 80 balles, juste pour la partie technique je rend le jeu en demandant s'il s'agit d'une blague.    … Expand

    Probably the most disappointing one yet from the last 10 years.
    First off, price is a total ripoff.
    Non playable scenes in between is full of moans and groans. At one stage I zoned out reminiscing on another movie full of moans and groans, thus killing immersion a bit. Perhaps I am getting to old for childishness and I found the game had a lot of that. Felt totally disconnected to the    Probably the most disappointing one yet from the last 10 years.

    Felt totally disconnected to the character as he just does his own thing. Lost total interest at the cross dressing part. This may appeal to some and that's okay, doesn't appeal to me.
    Movies place a 'S', 'N', 'L' tag for sex, nudity and language. Perhaps games should do the same for a certain category to alert buyers to what they're getting in to.
    Most of the 'game' is watching instead of playing. When you do get a chance to play then there is another bout of extensive dialogue, while strolling through the streets at a forced minimal pace.    … Expand

    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.
