    Overpriced? Sure, but still very fun game. I like Combat in this one more than in original tbh. Reminds me Devil May Cry 5. Great game.

    Finally Definitive Edition of this amazing game has been released. Because PC version is always Definitive version, even if it's just for keyboard and mouse support, that simply makes looking around, combat and basically everything so much better and more enjoyable. But PC also has better performance and mods. Great game, finally on Greatest Gaming Platform of All Time - PC. Can't wait for Part 2.

    I 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.

    I mean here's pure irony, Cyberpunk2077 extremely buggy, broken game that lacks tons of stuff that company promised - yet gets over 10 000 positive reviews.

    This game is excellent and the mod community is already coming through.
    The 0/10 scores really show how infantile the PC community can be.
    The game is not worth 70 dollars, especially if you've already played through it on the console version. But we are finally getting the Final Fantasy games on PC. Which means part 2 may be released simultaneously. Or at least much faster than Kingdom

    Anybody giving this a 0/10 is just copium for whatever is bothering them in their personal lives.

    Very fun game. Beautiful visuals, good combat, boss fights, characters are very likable and also look really cool with their epic hairstyles and voice acting is also solid. Would recommend.

    It's so obvious that bunch of people are going to whine and leave bad reviews, because it's not on steam and whatever else. In my opinion what really matters is the fact that i can actually FINALLY play this game on my PC. I absolutely don't care what store i need to use to buy it. I want to play the game. I don't care about store okay? I rather take this, than nothing.

    Very good remake, on-par with Resident Evil 2 Remake, in all honesty i would even go as far and say i prefer this to original. Combat is so much better in this one, more interactive. Haters can go back to fortnite.

    To me it's absolutely insane to give game like this 0/10 just cause it has some minor launch issues that will be very clearly patched. Game itself is great. Not many people have PS5 and not many people will have PS5 in very long time, so PC version is literally best version for Majority of gamers. It's miles better than PS4/PS4 Pro version. Miles better.

Not many people have PS5 and not many people will have PS5 in very long time, so PC version is literally best version for Majority of gamers. It's miles better than PS4/PS4 Pro version. Miles better. By the way, overall performance is actually very good, there are some stutters here and there when it loads stuff, but most of the time it's solid and in boss fights performance is also good. By the way when they will fix this problem with frames (that they obviously will), this is the BEST version of that game. It's not even debatable. Even if it just goes down to ability to use mouse and keyboard, something that most PC players use while playing games and that's something Playstation doesn't offer. PC gives you a choice and also 120fps. So either way, just ignore anyone who gives this masterpiece 0/10, because they have no idea what they are talking about. Expand

    Good game, about time it came to PC, i was starting to worry already, but better late than never.
    Now i have at least something to play until Horizon 2 releases.

    Liking this game depends mostly on wanting copy+paste of original or wanting same story and characters, but with modern movement,combat, etc. I prefer modern and i think this game helps people easier to get into FFXVI that looks already phenomenal. Not perfect, but nothing is.

    Here's a message to anyone giving this great game 0/10, because "PrIcE ToO hIgH" - Don't buy it. It's that simple. If the Price is so big factor for you, then maybe, just maybe you are not even fan of this game in the first place.

I know PC players are use to buy games from steam when they are discounted to 10 or 5 dollars/euros, but in general, Console players pay always 70 or 80. You are SUPPOSED to review THE GAME, not THE STORE or THE PRICE. Is it so hard to understand concept? Review is supposed to talk about video game itself, is it good, is story good, characters, graphics, etc. Just cause you give bad reviews, believe it or not, they wont change that price, nope. They wont. So you either pay the price and enjoy the game or you don't pay the price and you don't enjoy the game. Either way, without actually playing it or even caring about the game, you should NEVER give 0/10 review. PS: Amazing game, would highly recommend! Expand

    What an amazing year has PC had honestly, first Days Gone, now this and God of War in January. PC truly is the greatest, im not even trying to start some console war or whatever, im just stating the facts. PC gets all Xbox games and now basically most PS4 games as well. Good time to be PC gamer.

To me it almost feels like some people don't want this game to be on PC, almost like they are envy that their PS5 version is not THAT unique anymore, because it isn't. It's now on PC and just deal with it i guess. I personally think that it's great thing that it's on PC. Despite having PS4 version, i have been waiting for this PC version just so i could play it with 60fps and mouse/keyboard. I love that game and PS4 version was nice, but i simply enjoy playing with mouse/keyboard so much more.
    I had same effect with Horizon Zero Dawn and Days Gone, i was like - those are great games, i just wish i could play them on PC and now i can, same with FF7Remake.

    Why the hell are people complaining? This game has no Denuvo, there's million other ways you can get this game, if you actually use your brain for once. Just saying. This game is basically masterpiece, at least for me and if you are not happy that it came to PC, then you are not Final Fantasy fan anyway.

    This game is very good, performance is actually very solid, there are multiple videos on Youtube showing that even with 1060 you can get 90-100fps @ 1080p max settings. There are some stutters at times (not all the time) when it loads certain areas, but other than that i had no issues with this game. Visually looks amazing.

    This game is so, so, so much better than Cyberbug2077. Final Fantasy 7 Remake is actual art, while Cyberpunk2077 is just average undercooked McDonald's food. Would highly recommend FF7Remake, if you wanna have fun and experience something epic.

    Very good game and i'm absolutely glad it's finally on PC! Yes, i agree, it is overpriced, but it doesn't have Denuvo, so if you don't wanna buy it, you can get it from "somewhere else". Either way, what actually matters is that this great game is finally on PC and actually runs really well. This was surprising Christmas present for sure.

    Best game of 2020, and quite a good port. The game runs even on ancient PC's.
    I don't really understand those who downgrade it for the lack of the game in Steam or a couple of soapy textures. It's barely perceptible.

    Very good game, I recommend! The price isn't as bad as people make it seem. Its the same price as the PS5 version which came out a few months ago. Its $10 more because it comes with a DLC. It's worth it

    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.
