Apr 11, 2020Este juego es mucho mejornque el original... es original era un intento fallido de querer competir contra el mejor jrpg del momento que fue el xenogears... este juego es una obra maestra

Apr 11, 2020Horrible. Just horrible. Unfinished (even after the numerous delays) and just plain boring. Save your money and do not make a mistake buying it.

Apr 11, 2020It's fine, I really don't see all the massive hype around the game. I understand it's only part 1, but it felt incredibly short for me in comparison to other games of the same series and same genre
-
Apr 11, 2020We asked for a remake of a game and they basically delivered a movie with a different story.
Too much changes to swallow and digest at same time. No Thanks. -

Apr 11, 2020An epic remaining of one of the best games of all time. Its definitely worth a play for both series veterens and new comers

Apr 11, 2020Unexpectly Amazing. The soundtrack IS God fier, the fighting system IS a Perfect blend of action & strategy, the characters are greatly depicted. And oh, did I talked about the soundtrack ?! This game IS one of the best of this génération and a true love letter to the original FF7. Can't wait to see what's next for us !

Apr 11, 2020El remake soñado,una obra maestra,tiene algunos fallos de texturas que deslucen un poco su potencial gráfico pero en general es un juegazo increíble. Me devuelve a la infancia.

Apr 11, 2020нет русской локалзации как играть в рпг без перевода это неуважение к огромной стране
-
Apr 11, 2020Just finished it. Masterpiece.
Loved every minute of it, probably the best SP FF game since 10.
Some people are probably going be disappointed it's not necessarily the full-on remake that people imagined it to be,
but it's a experience from start to finish with breakneck pacing, enthralling combat, and lots of nice call-backs and nostalgic moments for fans of the original. -

Apr 11, 2020It most definitely **** And I need 75 characters so I'm typing this extra ****
-
Apr 11, 2020I loved the original back then, when I was a kid. But this remake just blows my mind. So impressively well done. I love you square enix.

Apr 11, 2020Misleading advertising. Dementors. 35 hours gameplay. By RPG standards, poor, by FF7 standards abysmal
-
Apr 11, 2020I did not like the camera during combats. The rest were amazing... to the ones with negative reviews, please be a bit open minded...it is really a modern take with respect to the original. I am one of the hard-core fans and i really apreciate the outcome!
-
Apr 11, 2020All you had to do was follow the script, Nomura, but no, you had to put your weird destiny-fate lame KH spin on this.
Besides the AWFUL rape of the original plot, this game is basically a series of corridors that you press square to win battles in. Enemies scale with you, materia system has zero imagination, everything is bad. -
Apr 11, 2020What I m most surprised about with most ratings that give a 0 for this game is that the so called die hard fans of the Og ff7 are disappointed this game only covers 10% of the original story. And my question is this: How can you be a so called "die hard fan of FF7" and not know the first thing everybody knew about this remake from day 1?
-
Apr 11, 2020I simply cannot accept this much and blatant padding in a game that is marketed as multiple episodes. This means that instead of padding, they could have used the assets to give us more interesting content. It is very disrespectful. Also the ending. And it doesn't feel like Final Fantasy 7, but more like Kingdom Hearts from all that happens during the game.
-
Apr 11, 2020Square has done a beautiful job recreating and even reimagining their cult classic. They have incorporated elements from so many of their original rpg systems flawlessly and creates a game as enrertainig to play as it is to enjoy the visuals.
-
Apr 11, 2020No, you don't get to release a game and call it "Final Fantasy VII remake" and only have 1/3 of the game inside. There was ZERO mention of this fact on the box of the game or in advertising for it. False advertising and shady practices from Square!
-
Apr 11, 2020Love this game! Haven't even put it down yet since release, really can't wait for part 2.
-
Apr 11, 2020Es ist gut wird viel Wert auf Story gelegt. Für mich daher 9 Punkte, da der Spielablauf schon dadurch sich etwas gefühlt sich zieht
-
Apr 11, 2020Very story heavy game, good cinematographic language with very good techniques and style. Battle system is top notch and Characters feel more alive than ever. Even if this is the first game of the series, it’s perfect in every single way on its own. Can’t wait for part 2!
-
Apr 11, 2020Back in 2005, when I watched Advent Children more than ten times... I dreamed that the original game would be like that. And it took over fifteen years for that dream to come true!
-
Apr 11, 2020A 2020 re-masterpiece scenario video game, an incredibly badass re-soundtrack, a seriously fun gameplay to control around, and literally a loving juego para todos. Do not forget to play the original after this Remake or before the Remake!

Apr 11, 2020As a fan of the OG, I like what they did with the story and can’t wait for the next one
10/10 -
Apr 11, 2020Pros:
- Stunning graphics, justifying the city of Midgar.
- Some parts of the game were spectacular and fun.
- Gameplay and the fighting, although it was not ATB.
Cons:
- Boring side-quests.
- Some parts of the main story felt like filler-content and where not that interesting.
- 35+ hours was way to long.
- The ending, turning a perfect story into metaphysical garbage. -
Apr 11, 2020Amazing all around game, if you’re an rpg fan I’d highly recommend this game can’t stop playing it.

Apr 11, 2020That's right square, milk us for all you can get, let's take a original playstation game which was sold complete and cost $30.00 twenty three years ago and split it into 4 games and sell each for $60.00, great way to treat you fan base.

Apr 11, 2020It's not good, but not bad either. The hype was very much more than what the game delivered. Save your money and watch the game on Twitch. Will not be buying the additional games as they are released.
-
Apr 11, 2020Que vergüenza que haya gente puntuando con 0...,vale que el juego no es de 10, pero poner 0 por poner.....deberían de borrar todas esas notas. Lamentable!

Apr 11, 2020This game is getting review bombed when it's really a very excellent game it's a 40 hours campaign full of s-tier new and old content on top of that 100gb of unique assets costing only 60$ without locking anything behind a pricy DLC

Apr 11, 2020Simply amazing
Best soundtrack of all time with excellent controls, beautiful graphics and a superb combat system. -
Apr 11, 2020The false advertising is what killing this game. Square Enix should have not insulted its fans by marketing this game as "Remake".
This game is not even a "Must Play" game here in metacritic, thus, it's a Big Fail. (Hell, even the original game is a "Must Play" game.) -

Apr 11, 2020This is such a great game. You REALLY should play it ! Story, music, visual, everything is great in this game.
-
Apr 11, 2020Square Enix strikes the perfect balance between honoring the original and opening it up for newcomers. On social media you might hear people saying that this isn't a "complete" game but that couldn't be further from the truth. This is a genuine masterpiece. There are some muddy textures that catch you off guard, but I'm sure they will be fixed soon.
-
Apr 11, 2020Tears of joy. Hours of fun. I'm a 16 yr old again. It's what I always pictured in my mind. Masterpiece.

Apr 11, 2020Muy grande... Con fallos, pero me parece una buena re imaginación del clásico de 1997.
-
Apr 11, 2020Best game ever. Best game ever. Best game ever. Best fame ever. Best game ever.

Apr 11, 2020A fantastic remake.. and if you have never okayed FF7 this is still a great game. The combat system is very good and satisfying and the story is still a great one to follow. Dont pass this up.

Apr 11, 2020Perfection. This game doesn't have bloated or boring filler. It's amazing and meaningful to make the world and the characters in it feel real. Literally perfect in every way.
-
Apr 11, 20201 of my top 100 games of all time for sure love this game music and everything takes me back to 1997, when i played for the 1st time amazing thanks Square enix, for this MASTERPIECE for sure in the game of the year category

Apr 11, 2020В 2020 году, когда ААА игры выходят с переводом на несколько десятков языков, выпускать игру за фул прайс на 4 языках - фантастическое свинство и жадность
-
Apr 11, 2020The game's combat gameplay is at its peak, the new-era graphics give the long-ago game a new lease of life, and the addition of the original trio love Jesse. The kh3 combat system surprised me with the SE's technology, and the ff7 system did not disappoint me
-
Apr 11, 2020Excellent game. There is NO WAY this is a 0. You might not like some elements of the story, gameplay whatever but the technicals alone cannot make it a 0. Personally, this is the game of the decade!
-
Apr 11, 2020This game is a great remake go's to show what 5+ years of love and care can do to a 23 year old game there are a few texture problems none that really bother me too much but that all dosen't matter this is a very fun rpg that captured the original game but makes it 100X more better
-
Apr 11, 2020Brilliant gameplay, graphics and audio. Expanding on characters we all know and love as well as those who we know little about. Would recommend.

Apr 11, 2020For me one of the greatest games of all time. I played it back in 1997 and to play this game again on the PS4PRO with so much more detail and added story-lines. And just to think there are 2 more episodes waiting in the pipeline...ahh, thrilled to play them too!!

Apr 11, 2020It’s beyond my expectations!! Everything is amazing from the graphics, the gameplay, the music and the dialogs. People have to be reminded that this is a remake...R E M A KE..... not a 1:1 copy of the old FF so there’s no need to be disappointed. It’s better that they changed and added stuff.
They simply nailed it! -
Apr 10, 2020bad texture quality of NPC and door(chapter 3) compared with other AAA games bad lock-on system(carmera moving is very bad)
very bad sub story. battle system is pretty cool
interesting main story(I haven't played original FF7) -

Apr 11, 2020This takes me right back to the glory PlayStation days in the nineties, My first two hours I played through were excellent, the combat is great, the story and peculiar detail they've put into this game is the best I've experienced so far, an absolutely unmissable game you can't look away

Apr 11, 2020By chapter 3 the game gets really good and opens up. I'm playing on a launch day PS4 on a 65" LG C9 and still looks beautiful at 1080p. Well Done! Can't wait to play it on the PS5 this holiday.

Sep 14, 2020Final Fantasy VII Remake is the game we've been waiting for from Square Enix for so long. Atmospheric, interesting and exciting all your attention modern jRPG with an interesting story and spectacular battles. To achieve the ideal, the project only needs more even graphics and all the content from the original release. If you were waiting for a turn-based classic with new graphics you will most likely be disappointed, since the game has changed a lot. Everyone else is happy with the release of the first really powerful single-player release from the internal Square Enix studio for many years. Especially after the failure of Final Fantasy XV.
-
Aug 20, 2020A good remake of the introductory part of the cult-favorite Final Fantasy VII. It improves on the original game in almost all aspects, yet lacks in scale and drops the ball at the very end.
-
Aug 10, 2020What matters is still intact, and that’s the heart and soul of one of the greatest stories in video game history. It’s a return to form that has felt a long time in coming, and what’s even better is that there’s still at least two more games of this quality to come...They can’t mess this up, can they?
