    Literalmente que las notas de 0 son solo de lloricas que solo querían un revisionado gráfico de exactamente las mismas cosas del jeugo del 97. Como juego solo da la talla mas que de sobra siendo un juegazo, me falla alguna textura sin calidad suficiente que desentona bastante (cosa que pueden arreglar fácil con parche) pero lo demás de 10

    It is a great game with lots of action. Follows the same path as the original with adding a few things here and there and giving better back stories. It does change a bit at the end but in a good way that is unexpected for players of the original.

    Boy oh boy. There is so much to say about this game I'm gonna try to be as fast and direct as possible and avoid a massive wall of text and without saying any spoilers. Be before I simply gonna do a little message to all the haters and people who put this masterpiece a 0/10.

    We all have different opinions for me this game is worth 10/10 for all the reasons I will explain soon. But    Boy oh boy. There is so much to say about this game I'm gonna try to be as fast and direct as possible and avoid a massive wall of text and without saying any spoilers. Be before I simply gonna do a little message to all the haters and people who put this masterpiece a 0/10.

    We all have different opinions for me this game is worth 10/10 for all the reasons I will explain soon. But giving this game a 0/10 does not make sense at all. Almost all the negative comment I read was from people who did not complete the game and just hated that the mechanism was replaced. Each time one aspect of the game change and it was not to their liking they put 0/10. So if anyone reading this the negative section is not even worth reading it. It's just a bunch of salty, angry grey whispering hatred stuff.

    1. Music: The music is just perfect. The amount of soundtrack in this game cannot be counted FFVII was known for their awesome soundtrack well they just took all the soundtrack perfected them. Some people said that it was trash maybe they are just deaf.

    2. Combat/Menu/Settings/Map: The combats are great even if people are mad that they did not put the original. I'm a huge fan of this game I liked the old combat system but it's 2020 they are trying to make this Remake for everyone, not just people who don't want to change in their head. The menu was great I was lost at one point in the game and I find all my answers on the menu very helpful. Settings were simple to use. The map was useful.

    3. Characters:
    [Cloud]The character are so well made. Cloud on my preference level seems a bit too much like a whinny and wanna be Sasuke. Cloud was arrogant and did not care he was not whining that much in the OG but I feel they changed him to make him a bit more like. Personally, I don't like that I would have preferred to see a more arrogant-rebel-sarcastic type. But this is personal the character ain't bad.
    [Tifa] was the good old Tifa I knew her voice her line her body language that's how I saw her. Again some people are put a 0/10 on this game because she got a sports bra no kidding people are pressing 0/10 easy here.
    [Jessie]A lot of people complain that the change was badly done some even went to the point of imagining weird twisted stuff with Jessie cuz it was not like in the original I find this a bit absurd Jessie is a good character and was not too much.
    [Barret]The best character made was Barret this game would be very different if Barret was not there. They keep what makes Barret he's perfect he's so funny but also his facial expression is the best when he doesn't have sunglasses weirdly enough his lines are so good.
    [Aerith]Perfectly done she's really funny and able to manage any kind of depressed sad grumpy person. She is so well done I'm happy they took their time.
    [Sephiroth] Perfectly the only thing I did not like as much was the voice acting I feel the voice actor struggle. He could have made a good Sephiroth voice but I just feel it was not made correctly rushed maybe?
    [The rest of the character] I honestly liked like all the other characters they really put effort into creating a personal touch to everyone.

    4. The story: A lot of people complain about the game was too much filler. This game is huge. They even told us that it will cover only Midgar. They could have just cover Midgar and give us a 20-25 hours game like a lot of games theses day but no. They decide to takes theirs let us discover more about the character we see and places in Midgar which was awesome the game can take 35-50 to be completed and the filler are interested why play and rate this game if you don't even love the content the rating does not make sense once again. The story was really good and the end of the game let me out of words.

    5. Last words: Some people are angry, pissed because they adapted this game for something better. Final Fantasy VII was made in 1997 after the release they made other content related to it liked The Turks Story (don't know the name) which was a plain game and kind of boring only for old cellphones which almost no one knows about. They made Dirge of Cerebus which was a disaster. They made a film which was so bad I just watched it cuz I liked the FFVII universe but man it was bad. They made Crisis Core which was really good. The point is FFVII OG always had been the best think about the FFVII universe. They decide to extend it put more work and effort and passion into this work and offer something we want. I have no problem of paying money since I prefer them working and exploring the possibility of this game instead of just remaking the game exactly at it is with better graphics also the game was worth every penny of it.

    A lot of people missed the point of the game. Instead of giving us a part of the same game with better graphics, they adjust it for the modern gamers and added stuff fill with passion. And they want to surprise us by continuing this epic journey.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Me ha encantado, como fan de la saga desde el FF6 de Super Nintendo y especialmente del 7, puedo decir que he quedado encantada con el remake. Ya no solo por la fidelidad del casi 99% que me ha hecho revivir momentos únicos de una manera mucho más profunda y visualmente espectacular, sino también por el controvertido final que para mí gusto es un acierto, pues da pie a crear una historia distinta y no saber qué nos depara el futuro de la saga.

    A pesar de las opiniones en contra, que son igual de válidas que el resto y las veo justificadas, yo creo que han encontrado una manera sencilla pero muy válida para la continuación. Por mi parte me ha gustado la sorpresa final, pues creo que sin este cambio esta parte habría quedado algo "floja" e insulsa para mí gusto, por muy fiel que fuese al juego original.

    Creo que llamar a esta primera parte remake ha sido muy acertado, porque es básicamente lo que han hecho casi en su totalidad. Aunque personalmente me da bastante igual el nombre, lo que me importa es el contenido, y no se puede negar que es un juegazo en todos los sentidos y hace honor a su nombre.

    La única queja que puedo tener es que se me ha hecho muy corto para ser un Final Fantasy, y que tiene poco contenido extra para rejugarlo, más allá del modo difícil y sacar un par de detalles como pueden ser los vestidos. Y que se puede hacer algo lineal, aunque eso es algo que en la parte de Midgar ya ocurría en el anterior. Motivos que no me harán bajarle la nota porque sigue siendo una pasada y creo que no merece algunas de las notas demasiado negativas que está recibiendo por parte de los fans.    … Expand

Perfect recreation of the original/careful executions to the minor details/revamped but actually better combat system/best graphics of the generation. You name it. This is basically the standard of Modern Remakes, if not every kind of Remakes. There are some concerns about certain part of the tweaked story/gameplay. But this game is just too polished that you can easily give it a 10 for how great the majority of the game is. If you are a FF7 fan, get it. If you are a new fan to FF, get it. You won't regret.

    In my 36 hrs gameplay experience, it was a blast! I enjoyed every single minute of it. The story, the characters, the dialogue, the combat, and everything that the game has to offer.

    The game has flaws like low textures(but i don't really mind because the game is pretty enough.) , this one side quest about the kitty thing which i disliked. But i love the side quest of this game. Gives you the immerse experience on how you interact with the npc and the rewards are absolutely fantastic. Every places you go does not feel empty. It's full of life. Also the ending kinda worries me. But i'm also positive that would make sense in part 2.

    I'm excited for part 2. To all haters who gives low scores, don't trust them, remember a quote "people hate when they don't understand." Play the game before you complain.    … Expand

    From what I've seen here, there are a lot of complaints about how the game is different, and how it is linear like FFXIII, but those who played the original knows how linear Midgar is. The changes to the game are different, but it is a fresh take on in an old story.

    At first I was afraid that they were going to ruin this game, as one of the best stories ever told in a video game, but Square Enix has managed to recreate every character with strong personalities, every character feels important and feels unique.

    The sidequests may be fetch quests, but they all have a small story behind, which tells a little about Midgar's citizens background, which I have really enjoyed doing all of them, including battle quests from Wall Market, the Shinra battle simulator, and the summons battles.

    The boss battles got me amazed, they are both fun and hard. Each boss has different style of attacks, patterns and are all amazed, those who said this game is purely button mashing haven't got to the boss in Wall Market, there they will learn that this game require you to play tactically.

    The only complaints I have, is about it, is the watchmen of fate being thrown too much into the early game with no explanation until the end, and the game textures in some areas (especially in Sector 5 and Sector 7) have a very low resolution.    … Expand

    Square-Enix in my opinion has done a remarkable job.

    Starting from the beginning as somebody that played the original as an 11 year old kid, I walked into this game with optimism but I was still very cautious.
    I game regularly but the original ps1 game is one of my favourite games of all time and nothing really compares story wise to me as i'm a sucker for a good rebellion story so i've always loved the Midgar section.

    When I entered the first mako reactor it was surreal for me, everything that you imagined as a child when you were playing the original has come to life while maintaining the charm of its roots.
    As you are walking through the slums you can look up at the plate above your head that separates the poor people in the slums from the elite living above them ( this was only mentioned briefly in the original), it is details like this that really make the experience.

    The graphics are on another level especially the character models, the environments are great except for the occasional pixelated door ( I hope this gets fixed in future patches).

    The characters that were given only minor lines in the original are fully fleshed out with personality and back story which has given serious weight to some of the events that occur later in the game.

    In regards to the combat system it is simply brilliant.
    I'm not sure if i'm in the minority with this but I found that combat extremely enjoyable.
    I never expected turn based combat in this game as some others have, it was labeled as an action RPG and it works really well.
    In the beginning I was almost exclusively using the protagonist "Cloud Strife" but the game flows in such a natural way that by the end I was rotating between every character and using all the abilities available to my characters.
    My only minor gripe is that the end bosses difficulty spiked very quickly, now i'm not saying that it was too hard because its very manageable but you go from easily handling boss encounters to really having to strategize for your encounters, and as the combat in the game really flowed up until this point that i found this to be quite jarring.

    As I said in the beginning of this review it is more of a re imagining than a remake to me as some story beats are very different to the original and this does definitely change things in regards to the overall story in future parts, whether you can accept this or not is down to personal preference but I loved it and am extremely excited for the next part!

    Hopefully it doesn't take too long.

    This game really is the whole package and I can tell that remarkable amount of care and love has gone into crafting this game,

I was a bit bummed out being separated from my first girlfriend for those 2 weeks, so I named Aerith by her name, and since it was my replay of the game and I knew the story, I had decided to train the hell out of Aerith, you know, to see what happen after the end of disk 1 with Aerith being level 99 (well nothing different happened haha) This to give you some context as how I was involved emotionally with that game, as I am sure lots of you have been. Here I am at 35 playing the remake and it’s just amazing. I have not played the game since my childhood, in fact I have not been getting into any games. It’s been rarely that I am finishing a game, and I am certainly on track to finish this one. I am at 20 hours and barely making it to the squat challenge. To the fact that only disk one is in in the remake thus far, it’s obvious it’s a whole different beast and the new dynamic of game development could not have made possible to have to full extent of the original games. Midgar was always my favorite part of the game, and I remember at the end of disk one always being sad I was leaving it to kill that damn snake.
    I am yet to see the supposed plot twist at the end of the remake, but I am not too worried about it, I think I can take a guess...

    Story: I would have given this game a full point, but the beginning was a little slow during chapter 3 and some parts in the story was just not realistic. All I'm going to say is that chapter 4 is an example of what it means to be immortal when you clearly should have died -- it wasn't believable. Other than that, this game puts you on a hell of a ride.

    Gameplay: Game feels fluid, the battles were fun, all the characters were unique to their playstyle, the game felt really good when moving around, and the buttons were really simple to learn/remember. What I didn't like was when the camera was fixed in position during some parts of the game, and sometimes getting on a ladder was annoying because I had to face directly at it but my character would move too fast and walk past the ladder. However, this game was still really fun.

    Characters: These characters are really cool. Shoot, even the side characters are cool. The only flaw was the fact that no one in the story really has a dramatic change. All the main characters have their developments and the same with some side characters. Nothing too amazing, but let me just say that the characters are very likable towards the end. How can you not like these characters? Especially Barret. The guy sings the original FF7 victory anthem after fights!

    Music: Come on, do I really need to say much here? The original game's music is iconic.

    Customization: I'll start with what the game lacks. It doesn't have skins, dyes, a skill tree, or smithing. The game does come with a regular weapon, armor, and accessory equipment. It still has the original FF7 materia customization, weapons have their own stat tree, characters can learn skills from weapons, and you can have different types of builds for each character (I made Cloud a magic user).

    Playtime: I did almost all the side quests and beat the game at around 35 hours. Honestly, I wish the game was longer, but 35 hours is solid and about right for a lot of people. I just feel that if the Witcher 3 could give me 80+ hours worth on my first playthrough, FF7 could have at least given me 50 hours.

    Content: There are quite a bit of mini-games, there are a few side missions, and a good amount of character dialogue/interactions.

    UI/GS: The game's UI is really simple and clean. It just does what it needs to do. The color scheme works. The speed between loads is pretty quick. The slowest process would have to be saving. The game gives up creativity for speed.

    Emotional Impact: This game will give you multiple feelings. A side character made me feel sad -- a side character! Barret's the star of the show and Cloud's Mr. Cool. It's a hell of a ride. They really save the best for the last part of the game.

    This is a must-play for RPG players. I understand some people have low attention spans and can't wait for the story to develop, but I'm telling you, it'll be worth it at the end. This game is all about the story. It was pretty epic.    … Expand

    Final 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.

    A 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.

    What 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?
