    I’ll be honest, I’ve never fully played a Final Fantasy game before, not even the original FF7. So for me to be gripped by the narrative this hard even with no prior experience with any other FF or the original, going in blind, says A LOT about this game’s ambitions!

It’s far from perfect however. I was expecting a long game going in (got done in about 22 hours which is long for me considering I skipped almost every sidequest since my attention span is the same as a bird’s) but some of these chapters are extremely long compared to others. Chapter 17 is probably the longest of them & is the WORST thing to happen to my mental state since Doom Eternal’s Ancient Gods Part 2’s final boss. There’s no reason that chapter 17 has to be over 3 hours long & you can’t convince me otherwise. All of the slow walking parts also drove me up a wall after a few times of doing it, and you WILL be doing that A LOT in this game, not even for narrative purposes some of the time! *rolls eyes* Factor in that the last few hours is basically a boss rush, each one more annoying than the last, and after breezing through most of the game with no issues at all, it was a difficulty spike that I didn’t appreciate. Aside from the final fight though, that’s legitimately amazing & one of the BEST video game experiences I’ve had in a while. I’m still trembling from the adrenaline rush!! The game is also stunning visually all the way through & I didn’t drop a single frame while playing. I’m kinda annoyed that they decided to make this remake episodic though. I loved the story don’t get me wrong, but if I had to choose between a full remake of the original over fleshing out the first portion of it into its own game, I think I’d rather go with the former. Too late now obviously, it just sucks that we have to wait who knows how long between these episodes & how many that there will be before the ending. What I do know is that this game is great despite the bumps I encountered along the road, definitely recommend even if you’re a first time Final Fantasy player like myself!… Expand

I feel that the lack of possibility to change your materia during battle to be very counter strategic (mainly against bosses). Basically you can use the asses ability during the battle to know the strengths and weaknesses of your enemy, but that only tells you whether or not you are equipped to fight it or not, you can't adapt to the information. As a general rule, I just pushed through, whatever the information was, and if I got defeated I'd set my materia according to the knowledge I gained from the battle. This is not an elegant design.
    Otherwise, the gameplay is fun. A bit rough on the edges, but it is fun.

    The pace of the game is what is best in my opinion, it is like a long interactive cutscene. It is very entertaining. Though, my issue with it, is that it doesn't feel like a coherent story. It feels more like a series of "cool scene" and "cool pseudo philosophical speeches", but all the parts don't really fit together. Especially the escalation in the last chapter, where you go from C to W, but you skipped everything in between.
    In my opinion, they should've kept the story centered on midgard, and just gradually hint at the bigger picture, rather than try to force feed it to you. The avalanche and helping Aerith storyline, are the parts I like best about this game. It's not that I don't want the epic proportion drama with Sephi and all, it's just that it made no sense in that part of the story. And honnestly, the whispers should just not be there. They're both a narrative cop-out on the designers part, and they just confuse everything behind the guise of being "to evolved" for you to understand.

    Anyway. I still had fun playing it, at least the first time. Playing it again, kind of exposed the narrative flaws even more. Also the hard mode is not that fun (and for those among you who care, yes I did beat it, and only a few bosses gave me any real troubles). The way they added difficulty in the hard mode is by removing elements of gameplay, which I find is rather dull. Removing uses of items takes a system out of the game, and limiting your MP input kind make you not use magic all that much. It is harder, but not in a fun way.    … Expand

I initially appreciated it more than I had expected, but after a while, I started realizing that something was very wrong. In short, you get high production values but a very poor JRPG, with severely limited scope and derivative narration.
    The graphics revamp is obviously welcome, with the 3D environments looking much better than the original 2D images, except when you see distant, pixellated panoramas. The semi-interactive battle system is more immersive than the original, turn-based active time battle. On the other hand, I quickly realized that turn-based strategy goes down the drain. Almost any enemy attack will stagger you, preventing you to complete any action, which means that casters like Aerith are heavily impaired when fighting multiple enemies. Say your team gets knocked out and your healer is the last man standing: chances are it's game over because she'll never manage to pull off a resurrection spell, with enemies concentrating on her. Also, if you can control one character at a time, team AI for the other two should be good. Here it’s abysmal, with your teammates doing practically nothing and getting hurt all the time.
    Using a fighter is some fun, but not as much as it could be. You have a dodge move that is essentially useless, your combos cannot be cancelled and block has a huge delay. All in all, it's totally unresponsive, preventing any fast action from working. Finally, stunlock is definitely a thing with certain enemies. As an action melee game, FF7R fails miserably.
    This is not its worst problem. The main issue is The Hobbit effect. What was once a very special game with a tightly knit story, relatable characters and a really special feel, has been artificially inflated to transform it into a 3-game epic, injecting filler content everywhere, and it suffers from the transformation. The original FF7 started exactly like this game: you are in Midgar City, battling the evil Shinra Corporation, and think you have it all figured out. After they pull a certain, horrible move, the perspective suddenly changes completely, the real game begins, the scope becomes huge and you realize you had only scratched the surface so far. In FF7R there is no such epiphany because the first game doesn’t get out of the small setup, which results in a very, very small game world and mundane side quests.
    The story also suffers. In FF7, you could talk to a lot of people, and while most chatter was just that, sometimes you could get glimpses of background stories going on, lots of hidden gems. It’s kind of difficult to explain, but a certain character takes a liking to Cloud from the very start. In FF7, you had very few chances to actually interact with her, and yet these interactions were poignant, because my imagination would reconstruct what was left unsaid. In FF7R, it’s all spelled out loud, and becomes a badly written, run of the mill semi-romance of no consequence.
    You get very, very few instances where you can decide what Cloud says. In FF7 you had a lot; many did not have real story consequences, but they were still part of what “my” Cloud was, they were role-playing in my view. Here, you just go through fixed dialogs 99% of the time.
    Other things I didn’t enjoy:
    - Bad, over the top acting. Stupid, evil laughter worked when it was text, irks when it’s voice.
    - Way too many special enemies. May be ok if you like bosses, but really, there are apparently more unique enemies than normal ones.
    - This is not Devil May Cry. Who figured that an idiotic, bombastic, superpowered, emo badass like Roche would fit in?
    - The ending. Bloody hell, talk about making it five times as long as it should have been! It’s a putrid slog through annoying, unsatisfying, inconclusive fights that drag on forever.
    All in all, I’m glad I didn’t pay for the game.    … Expand

    I remember buying the Original Title back in the days on PC and how much I Süd- to love the franchise. This is a huge makeover and a great piece of work. I guess I am really waiting for a Title like this with a new Story line, because the overall story is not as catchy as the battle system , graphics and sound. But who knows, maybe the next FF will do the Trick for me.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Un juego decepcionante, ese seria el mejor resumen que puedo hacer del mismo.
    - Los gráficos son excelentes, la ambientación de migdar es increíble, pero todo palideces con un diseño de niveles desastroso (de los peores de la generación).
    - El sistema de combate es divertido y profundo, pero se vuelve muy tedioso con la pésima inteligencia artificial que tienen los compañeros y eso sin mencionar que los enemigos son esponjas de daño, si no tienes equipada la magia a la que es débil, las batallas se vuelven excesivamente largas. Literalmente te vez obligado a llevar la materia que evaluá a los enemigos, lo cual se vuelve coñazo.
    - El juego es demasiado pasillero, lo cual no debería ser un problema, me gustan los jugos lineales; pero se vuelve un coñazo cuando no te dejan explorar a libertad y todo el tiempo te obliga a seguir la misión de turno.
    - La música del juego original es casi perfecta, solo necesitaba una materización, pero en lugar de ello decidieron crear remix extraños que suenan muy inferiores a las canciones originales. Solo basta con escuchar lo que hicieron con la canción "mako reactor" o "the oppressed".
    - Por ultimo quiero nombrar los cambios en la historia, si un juego lleva el nombre "remake" significa que su historia será 1 a 1. Si pretendían crear una "re imaginación" le hubieran colocado otro nombre y los que amamos el juego de 1997 nos evitábamos tener que jugar esté bodrio. El añadido de los "ecos del destino" no suma nada, al contrario resta y la sobre explotación de la figura de sephiroth lo convirtió en un villano plano y sin justificación alguna. Los que jugamos el original entendemos su motivación, pero un jugador nuevo no, el haber perdido ese aire de respeto y misticismo que invocaba su figura es desacierto. Lo peor de todo es que la historia original era más adulta, no tenía reparo en matar a todas las personas del sector 7, cuando jenova escapaba no tenía timidez en mostrar sangre, el edificio destruido y al presidente asesinado... Podría escribir paginas de los cambios que arruinaron parte de la historia, pero mejor ejemplifico todo con mi nota.
    En fin... un juego que esperé por años, pero por desgracia me dejo un gusto amargo.    … Expand

    Final Fantasy VII Remake ist der Versuch den Wunsch der Fans, FF 7 in die Moderne haben zu wollen, zu entsprechen.

    Das ist ihnen auch zum Großteil gelungen!

    Die Welt sieht für den aktuellen Technikstandard glaubhaft aus. Einzig und allein die technische Limitierung der PS4 und PS4 Pro reißt einem an einigen Stellen aus der Magie in Form von leichten Matschtexturen heraus.

    Das Kampfsystem ist Kingdom Hearts-typisch: Schnell und knackig, aber auch so umgepolt worden, dass es bei Weitem kein einfacher Abklatsch von seinem kleinen Bruder ist!

    An einigen Ecken und Kanten wurde an dem Gameplay herumgeschraubt um es intuitiv, aber auch beherrschbar zu machen - Frei nach dem Motto: „learning bei doing“.

    Einzig und allein das Ausschmücken der Story kann an einigen Ecken des Spieles manchmal zu Verwirrungen führen, wobei das Spiel hin und wieder die Kehrtwende macht und wieder den Pfad des Originals einschlägt.

    Unterm Strich bleibt zu sagen, dass Final Fantasy VII Remake ein gutes Spiel ist, mit viel Ideenreichtum, aber dann doch Kingdom Hearts-typisch uns die eine oder andere Frage offenlässt.

    Ganz Kingdom Hearts-typisch? Kein Wunder, da Director Tetsuya Nomura ohnehin für seine ausufernden Story-Inhalte bekannt ist, für die ihn seine Fans so sehr lieben.

    Dennoch können Neulinge, aber ruhig mit dem Final Fantasy VII Remake starten ohne Kenntnis des Vorgängers da ihr jeglichen Inhalt, den ihr verstehen sollt, auch verstehen werdet.

    Für die nächsten Teile dieses Spiels sind wir hier in der Redaktion gespannt: Denn Final Fantasy VII Remake soll in mehreren Teilen aufgesplittet werden. Allerdings ist die genaue Anzahl dieses Mammutprojekts noch unbekannt.

    Voice actors bring classic hero’s alive a new. Brianne White as Voice of Aerith is one to remember.

    We see character development to them and classic scenes are there and now they deepen them more. Rest of Avalance get more time. Some of the chapters in story could have been shorten and something else added. But that is my view.

    Plot is almost the same, but at the end comes the twist. That worries me, but I see what they intended with it. Now they are free to take story at new direction?
    That was bold move, I don't know what to think about it, so I hold my judgement until next part.

    Guess I am worried what SquareEnix is going to do in next.

    Mayby this will crash train we are in, like many other old franchise (Star Wars, Star Trek or Last of Us)

    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.

    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?
