    The 40 hours flew by. The story was a great trip down memory lane with more depth. The combat has been spiced up to have a little more action and the graphics have been ever so slightly improved.

    There's not much of a sense of exploration but I'm okay with that. Instead, my biggest concern with this game is that Square Enix is going to milk this series long past when it should end.

    I'll start by saying I'm now 47 hours in and just started my second play through on hard mode, I deliberately wanted to finish the game before leaving a review. Next I'll say that the original FF7 was THE GAME for me that basically got me into gaming, I'll still say it is probably the best game ever made.

Next I'll say that the original FF7 was THE GAME for me that basically got me into gaming, I'll still say it is probably the best game ever made. Thus I had high expectations for the remake, and I was always worried about how this was going to be executed.

    In short, it's amazing. It's almost a masterpiece, but doesn't quite reach the heights of the original. And could it ever? No. And that is because it's only a tiny piece of the original. If they remade the FULL game with this level of quality then yes, it would be a masterpiece.

    The characters in the game are honestly brilliant, with Tifa by far being the best with exceptionally good voice acting. It's great to see an expansion on some of the peripheral characters such as Jessie. For the first time in a long time, I really cared about the characters in a video game.

    Graphically the game swings from amazing with brilliant characters models but then to the outright awful with poor textures in some of the environments. But overall I'd say this was a great looking game. The summons in the game look fantastic, with Shiva being the highlight for me.

    Music wise the game is amazing, the production here is second to none. That opening scene, wow, just wow. TURN IT UP! The music really adds to the atmosphere and for the most part plays testament to the original. There are a couple of missteps music wise, with wall market being my least favourite with cheesy techno pop.

    I love all of the little details the developers have put into this, such as Barret humming the tune that used to play at the end of each battle in the original. I laughed the first time he did it. On the topic of humour, there is some of that too. Cloud constantly belittles Barret in the first few hours of the game as their relationship develops, these scenes made me laugh too.

    Now onto the combat...wow...it is simply amazing. It is so dynamic, deep, and strategic. It takes a while to uncover its full potential but when you do and everything just clicks it’s a real joy to play. The only bad point about the combat is in literally one or two battles there can be just a little bit too much going on which I found personally overwhelming at times. The camera angle doesn’t help at times. But this is really infrequent and did not negatively impact my experience with the game.

    I'm really enjoying hard mode, I really like how it forces you to think much more strategically about your use of materia especially in light of how you cannot use items...ever. Playing through on hard mode is allowing me to further uncover aspects of the combat I never realised in my first playthrough.

    There are lots of reviews that mention filler. I would generally agree with this but at the same time I enjoyed the break from the pace of the story to learn how the combat works. But I think Square could have been more innovative with this admittedly. I didn’t think these were ‘bad’ parts of the game, they just weren’t on par with the quality of the rest of the game.

    There are so many good things about this game I find it hard to understand some of the insanely bad reviews some of the users are giving it...0? Really a 0?! You have to look at the overall general view, a Metacritic user score of 8 for a game that was always going to be VERY heavily scrutinised is extremely good.

    It's disappointing to see so many comments disappointed by the ending and some of the story changes (honestly it is not that drastic). At first I was somewhat confused by the ending but as I thought about it more it makes sense really - without giving too much away all Square are trying to do here is expand upon what COULD happen in the next few parts. It leaves you wondering where they are going to take this next and I personally enjoy the mystery. I’m glad it’s not going be scripted and predictable – because if you think about it where is the fun in that? I doubt very much they will deviate from the original story too much but I do expect some surprises along the way if the ending of the remake is anything to go by.

    Now all I can do is look forward to the next part and hope that it is as good as this.    … Expand

    Final Fantasy Remake oscilates between good and great, overall.

    STRONG POINTS:

    - Battle system. It's really creative, i loved it because they mixed turn based rpg and action rpg greatly. Also, it's fun;
    - Graphics (considering they will patch to polish it, probably);

    WEAK POINTS:
    - Exploration is a lot linear. Walking between slums constantly feels like you are in a corridor;
    - Different slums feels like the same (they're kinda "cities");
    - Square Enix does not fully exploit the potential to explore new places. We could have the option to explore and know rich cities above the slums, but we barely touch these places. That was frustrating.
    - The IN GAME NPC walking animation is bad. It's a lot superficial, both in moviments and behavior. About behavior, for instance, it's common see NPC partners start running at the same time and, also, stop running at the same time when they're too distant from the player. Feels totally unnatural and robotic some times;
    - Side quests could've been a lot better and more meaningful, but they're kinda good enough i guess.
    - I feel like the extra content is small and that there isn't really nothing EPIC to conquer or to discover.

    NEUTRAL POINTS:
    - This is controversial: the game's ending. I think the game's ending is intriguing. But, if it is good or bad, it depends on how Square Enix will lead the next games.    … Expand

It still has the same classic feeling. So far I played 5 hours in the game where I am enjoying my time so far because the game really keeps you engaged and wanting for more. The bad part is the game is linear and not open world which this I really liked the most about the original.

    As a fan of the series since FF4, FF7 is tied with FF6 as my favorite. My expectations were set to mediocre / decent based on the recent entries as far back as FF13. I did not previously have faith in Tetsuya Nomura to do this remake justice as a director based on other titles he is associated with, especially the Kingdom Hearts series.

I did not previously have faith in Tetsuya Nomura to do this remake justice as a director based on other titles he is associated with, especially the Kingdom Hearts series.

    I'm happy to say that this game went far above and beyond anything I could have expected. At first I was not a fan of the 'plot ghosts' and have never enjoyed it when writers use destiny as an excuse for nonsensical plot points. Final Fantasy 7 Remake, however, gives the finger to destiny and is actually pretty mind blowing once you start to understand the finer points of the ending and hints you might notice on a second play-through. This game created a massive rabbit hole of theory and speculation among YouTubers such as Final Fantasy Peasant, Maximilian Dood, and Sleepezi, and I couldn't be more excited for the next installment. I now have a lot of confidence in Kitase, Nomura, and their team to give most of us fans an incredible experience that we've been craving.

    The flaws of a few low res textures and a little bit of padding are far outweighed by the deep and excellent combat system, great voice acting and cut scene direction, and soundtrack. The music was absolutely incredible with far more tracks than I've ever experienced in a game. Overall the experience was easily a 10/10 masterpiece for me.    … Expand

    A Square Enix deu um gostinho para os fãs com uma demo na época de PS3,e finalmente em 2015 na PlayStation Experience anunciou o Remake.
    O jogo original que era em batalha em turno, foi modernizado com o mesmo sistema visto em jogos como a série Kingdom Hearts e FF XV, em que você tem que ter muita calma antes de atacar e não por ser um Action RPG que não há estratégia. Os gráficos estão ainda mais superiores visto em FF XV de 2016, apesar de ter gráficos lindos há algumas partes do cenário do jogo que são mal renderizados, mas claro que uma patch possa concertar isso futuramente.
    Na questão da história, alguns pontos crucias da trama foram mudados por ser uma reimaginação do jogo original, assim como o Remake de Resident Evil, ele não será 100% fiel ao jogo original, mas isso é uma questão que depende muito do jogador se acha bom ou não.
    Uma escolha polêmica da Square Enix, foi decidido fazer FF VII em partes, similar ao jogo original por causa da limitação da época, a Square decidiu fazer isso para não cortar conteúdo. Mas não se engane que por causa disso o jogo será curto, em compensação a isso, há muitas horas de gameplay. E o jogo está no tamanho de um FF normal.
    Somando tudo, Final Fantasy VII Remake é um dos grandes jogos de 2020, e um forte candidato em algumas categorias no Game of Year de 2020, e um dos melhores RPGs já feitos pra essa geração.    … Expand

The first part of this remake of this beloved tale provides greater focus on the characters and their interactions, aswell as life within and below the technological metropolis of Midgar.

    Square Enix in addition to expanding upon the abundant lore and world of FF VII has masterfully crafted a combat system that blends aspects of their previous games into what can only be described as a perfect marriage of a turn-based and action centric fighting system. The chapter based scenes devided by linear and non-linear setpieces was a smart choice to really get a sense of Midgar and its massive scope

    Any fan of JRPG's or the steampunk realm of modern Final Fantasy can't go wrong with FF7R. While many have been critical of the brave new direction that Square Enix has taken the story. What they have already managed to accomplish has many fans cautiously optimistic for the second part of this monumental game that may end up redefining the JRPG genre more than 20 years since the original took the world by storm and left a legacy that few pieces of media have ever come close to matching.    … Expand

    With that out of the way, this game gave me all of the nostalgia I could ever want, a healthy dose of new lore and story revolving around side characters which lead to greater immersion in to the city of Midgar, and scenes with vistas that made the world seem immensely larger than the original.

    GAMEPLAY: It's easy to find your niche when it comes to fighting and this works for the entire game on Easy/Classic and Normal (to an extent). It's not until you play Hard mode that creative and tactical thinking is essential. Inviting intense challenge while avoiding beating you over the head with it is one spot where FF VII R truly shines. My only complaint was the lack of usefully enemy skills but not even enough to take off a full point. 9.5/10

    ATMOSPHERE: It took me so long to finish this game because I would find myself soaking in the striking scenery until I eventually forced myself to move on. The aftermath of the assault on Mako reactor 1, the Sector 7 Slums, the Shinra building exterior, and so much more left me in awe. 10/10

    CHARACTERS: It's FF VII vastly expanded. You delve into the relationships between members of Avalanche, something the original sadly did not include. 99% of the voice actors feel natural as their character although Square has always had problems with awkward NPC dialogue and random anime grunting but that's not something I can hold the VAs accountable for. Characters hold true to their original personalities but then they do happen to move beyond that, it's done very well, especially with Aerith. 9/10

    PLOT: This was the most divisive element of the game. Some people wanted a true retelling of FF VII (up to the end of Midgar) and not many fans were expecting a pretty severe divergence towards the end. After giving it some thought, I am fine with either way. I would have enjoyed the original story by now I am extremely excited (but also a little concerned) to see where we go from here. 8/10    … Expand

A wonderful synthesis of new and old that combines perfectly with both tactical elements from the original with mechanical elements that keep you moving. I had lost faith in JRPG combat systems of late that just seemed to have become a slog but this system is just right. Boss variety keeps things fresh and requires genuine thought at times instead of just mindless button mashing. The graphics are really flawless for the most part... how on earth are the characters somehow just as I imagined them to be when I was just looking at fan fiction and low polygon models before? That opening sequences... wow. Unfortunately there are exceptions to this with some low quality textures like the slums from above or the plates from below. I mean really, why wasn't there care put into them? One thing that I'm not sure is really a flaw but might not be for everyone is the cheesy acting. It kind of makes it hard to engage with the story at times, but then again, its quite possilbe that its just a faithful realisation of the text. However... it doesn't really come across well with voice acting. They could have toned it down a little. There is a certain amount of padding in the game but it isn't over the top and it tends to teach you something about the world in general. However, somehow it can feel a bit generic at times. Oh and I loved the mini-games :). They are silly but a nice distraction. All in all, top quality stuff. You can see the genius of the original game shine through in (almost) all its glory.… Expand

    I was sure I couldn't expect much from Square any more. I saw E3, and it was just okay to me until I played demo of FF7RE. The demo was great and it was sensational to me. I always buy package to keep it, but I was late. Therefore, I purchased DL version as exception.

    Overall, the game was not perfect. Very minor but agree with other players - Had famous texture bug with unreal engine 4. Not super excited side quests. Unfamiliar (Unfriendly?) story telling to new users.

    However, the game has much more PRO than CON - Crazy awesome sound tracks. Battle system was master piece. Stunning Characters. Big change of story lines. Great atmosphere and fan services. Multiple user selections.

    Characters: 10 / 10
    Very happy to see Cloud, Tifa, and Aerith with enhanced graphic. I could see their face expression! Which we couldn't see from original FF7! Also their character setting was perfect cut from compilation of Final Fantasy 7. They've fully understand their characters and they combined it very nicely.

    Story: 10 / 10
    This is one of the hardest choice to users and Square/Enix. If the story is same, user will complain about partial game sales. But clearly impossible to put all the original contents to one disc. Therefore, they called it as remake. Not remaster. This is very challenge to Square/Enix, and I think they did well as first step. Now we all don't know the future story. I really hope they don't ruin it.
    In addition, side Quest was off (except chapter 4) but much better than FF15! I was able to see the improvement. Small rewards from side quests were also worth it. And leave it as player's choices!

    Music: 10 / 10
    Best game music of all time. Great Boss battle musics. Great Jazz Juke box musics. Great character and atmosphere musics. Ending music was sensational. Very memoriable and unique.

    Game Play: 10 / 10
    Awesome cutscenes. Great balance between battle and adventure. Texture and full voices were matched very well. Didn't get bored at all since I couldn't stop watch beautiful game/characters.
    At the ending credit, I realized I was in final fantasy. Just like title.

    Battle System: 10 / 10
    Very unique style. It seemed like real-time battle like dark-soul, but it combined thoughtfully with turn based RPG (ATB system). Different pattern of BOSS fights and many enemies! I hope we have more VR missions!

    I got old and busy with work and family, so I lost my interest in video game. However, this game bring my game spirit back!
    I loved this game. I got my platinum trophy. I bought packaged version to keep it as well, and ready to play with PlayStation 5.

    At last, how hard to make sequel or remake? We've seen other movies, drama and games that how hard it is. We all know how bad it can be. However, FF7RE had great start. It can be better and has potential to be the greatest game of all time, just like original.    … Expand

    Was expecting a complete game and quite a disappointment to see we'll have to wait many years for the complete story. What's left is a very linear game, pretty much just a film with a few interactive sequences in between. Sadly the best part in the original FF7 is after Midgar but that's for another time.

    Loved the game, and loved how they've given us hope for future chapters.

    I know a lot of people dislike the fact that this isn't the full game, but this was a solid 50hours plus game for me. Looking forward to part 2 in the future

It didn't help I couldn't stand the characters or their dialog. The only thing keeping me going was the plot (when it progressed) and the combat. When you do fight it is fun and satisfying. I did enjoy every encounter I was in. I enjoyed the bug nuts boss fights even more. I do believe this could've been a wonderful game if they just trimmed it. Their sad attempt to get me to care about these characters with constant unnecessary dialog that bored the crap out of me only made me hate them more. If you love JRPG's this game is for you it is a very well made game. If you are like me and never really got into them for one reason or another Final Fantasy VII remake isn't going to change your mind anytime soon.… Expand

    My first playthrough on normal difficulty was fun, touching and challenging for most of the time, but there was always certain things that I was hoping to overlook when making a 2nd playthrough on hard mode, for better or worst I do believe hard mode is the "better" way of playing FF7R although those certain things that I was hoping to overlook were stronger also.

    As a general overview    My first playthrough on normal difficulty was fun, touching and challenging for most of the time, but there was always certain things that I was hoping to overlook when making a 2nd playthrough on hard mode, for better or worst I do believe hard mode is the "better" way of playing FF7R although those certain things that I was hoping to overlook were stronger also.

    As a general overview I think FF7R is a good game, great also but it certainly has its flaws, my favorite aspect by far was the combat system, similar to the one in XV but polished to the point that it truly feels challenging and fair, at first I was trying to main a character and the game also gives you options to play like that but when the combat truly shines is when you play your party as if they were a unit, is really mesmerizing to end a boss battle when everything clicked. Although the problem with the combat is that it feels that you don't fight as much as you like and this is where things get a little too rocky.

    My main problem with this remake is that its rhythm almost never manage to get a good balance between gameplay and cutscenes or even liberty to explore or things to do, a typical hour in this game goes almost like this: watch a cutscene of several minutes, advance some steps, watch a little clip of your party discussing something, advance some steps, have 3 or 4 fights, cutscene, advancing, etc. except for a few action driven chapters, you're gameplay is always interrupted by a cutscene or a clumsy mini-game, its difficult to grasp all the fighting mechanics when the game keeps you from fighting. Side-questing can be a good option when doing well... extra things, however, the catch is that there are just few side-quests for just a few chapters, and when you finish them don't expect to do a lot more, even the enemies doesn't seem to spawn after you clear them.

    The story is great, if you know the original you know more or less how this goes, the difference is that this time they added a lot of things and backstories to fill the runtime of 40 hours or so and at times it feels a little like they were padding and stretching things a little too much, don't get me wrong tho', the characters are charming than ever and for the most part feel well scripted (aside from some notable localization choices but may is just me), but maybe cutting some content or making some scenes shorter certainly would do it better, I didn't mind the padding that much on my first play-through but when kicking in the 2nd round, I was skipping a lot of chunks of the game that certainly didn't add that much.

    Graphically, the game is beautiful and it certainly does look like a final cycle PS4 game, Midgar looks massive and full of life, I love how things are quite different when is day or night, even when is the same place, more often than not I was fooled of what things were real time and what things don't, in reality a lot of the things were real time, no wonder how my PS4 sounded like a rocket.

    The music was a little mixed for me, overall is good, I'm not sure how difficult is to screw over the amazing original tunes to begin with, but my problem with a lot of the songs is that they sound too "Hollywood blockbuster" generic, I do like some of the rearranged versions better than the original, but when they pick the more active or battle theme ones they tend to sound a little tamed, they're still good but not as much as the original source. Speaking of original source, I highly recommend that you play this with the original Japanese audio, every actor manages to capture the charm of all the cast, they sound like they should be, the dub cast, I definitely stay away from that one, it sounds too "saturday cartoon show" for its own good.

    As my lasting impression, even with its pretty noticeable flaws I do like where this is going, I didn't like some of the narrative choices and there's a lot of room of improvement for the next chapter, I know that this section on the original game was not exactly "open world" but it hurts that you can only play like in FFXIII in a just one way corridor, hope the next one gave us the freedom to explore and do whatever thing we feel to do. If you played the original and don't mind the gameplay shift, most probably you'll like this game, if you haven't played it, I do recommend that you play the original first, since this game expect that you know some of the story (similar to Rebuild of Evangelion). Overall I enjoyed my time with this game, so I surely but not strongly recommend it, I'm aware that maybe a lot of people prefer a cinematic experience over a gameplay experience so maybe this can be your cup of tea if you're more in the former group, so give it a go.    … Expand

    This is a 9.5 game that doesn't deserve to be rounded down.
    I'm going to stick to main points:
    - Excellent addictive combat system. Every character is unique and they sync so well. I appreciated it even more on Hard mode because it's quite punishing if you don't pay attention. While Cloud is the cool edgy main character, I was pleasantly surprised at how much fun I was having with    This is a 9.5 game that doesn't deserve to be rounded down.
    I'm going to stick to main points:

    - Excellent addictive combat system. Every character is unique and they sync so well. I appreciated it even more on Hard mode because it's quite punishing if you don't pay attention. While Cloud is the cool edgy main character, I was pleasantly surprised at how much fun I was having with Tifa's combos and Aerith's spells. Barret has a damn gun for an arm, so what's not to like about him?

    - Sound track slaps where you don't expect it to, and I'm not talking about my butt. For those of you who are not aware, they're releasing the OST at the end of May. Don't sleep on this one!

    - Great visuals, despite some random one-offs.

    - Fully voiced game that really captures the sentiment. Characters are all very likable. You can hear clusters of NPCs having conversations as you approach them, creating quite an immersive experience. They put a lot of work into this title and it shows!

    - While this is a remake, there's so much character development that is much appreciated. I thought since I played the original that there wouldn't be any surprises, but I was DEAD wrong. I am way more drawn to the characters now and heavily invested. This really isn't "just the first 8 hours of the original game." This is very much getting into spoiler territory so I'll try to keep it short: you're going to keep thinking about what's coming next. There is so much foreshadowing throughout this game that is not entirely answered by the end (and I'm not talking about answers you would've gotten from OG FF7) and if you piece it together, you may come up with some very interesting theories that'll leave you hungry for the next release. There's good replay incentive and before I even finished my first playthrough, I was already itching for unlocking hard mode.

    - There's so much value here. Beating the game the first time unlocks Chapter Selection, which allows you to select difficulty prior to starting the chapter. This makes backtracking for quests or missing items a lot easier for completionists. While you can skip things to save time, I noticed that they put so much detail into this game that I am finding things I've missed from my first playthrough that I'm just letting the game flow naturally again. I spent 38 hours on normal and I'm already at over 60+ on chapter 8 or so on Hard. Get. This. Game.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Square Enix made a mistake making the game Midgar-only. There's only so much they could expand upon to make a truly unforgettable experience. With that being said, they made the absolute most out of what they were given without ruining it with filler content and unnecessary missions (excluding Chapter 14).
    Everything but that one chapter and the ending feels natural and unforced. As for the ending, this is what keeps the game from a 10 for me. THIS GAME DID NOT NEED ALTERNATE TIMELINES. IT DID NOT NEED A SEPHIROTH FIGHT. IT DID NOT NEED SEPHIROTH SHOWING UP EVERY OTHER CHAPTER. Part of what made him such a good villain in 1997 was his buildup. The entirety of the Midgar section portrayed him as nearly a God. A legend. This man shows up in the beginning of Chapter 2 in the Remake. Plus, you beat him. It takes away that fear and intimidation.
    Take the Midgar Zolom from the original. You're fresh out of Midgar, and immediately presented with this giant snake that you can NOT beat at that point in the game. Once you get passed the swamp, you see another one impaled on a tree by Sephiroth like it was nothing. That made the man scary. Whereas in Part 2 of the Remake, it will be a "oh, he did a thing, whatever" moment.
    I'm not even going to get into the Whispers and destiny being changed, that's all in the air. Square had a chance to remake their most beloved game of all time. They did a phenomenal job despite my criticism, and did everything they needed to do. They just tried to do a little too much.    … Expand

The story and graphics are above a 10!

I didn't mind the ending, but players would find themselves suddenly thrust into a story change that requires you to play FF7 original, Crisis Core, Dirge of Cerberus and watch Advent Children to make any sense of.

    What I can say about this game though:

    CHARACTERS - the characters have been fleshed out far beyond my expectation and for the first time I enjoyed actually playing Tifa and Barrett (characters that I never used in the original FF7) and how they bounce off each other and have different personality quirks. Aeriths personality has been significantly developed and hearkens to the FF7 Japanese Version of Aerith, which is this fun, bubbly, confident and caring young woman.

    MUSIC - The music is mind blowing, emotional and beautiful. When I heard Nobuo Uematsu was coming back to work on this game I knew we were in for a treat. Not only does the soundtrack inspire the feeling from the original score, brought into the 21st century, but the mixing of the music within the game from exploration to battle is flawless.

    SCENERY - You feel like you are living and breathing in Midgar and the remake is incredibly faithful to the original, just built upon even further. There are some issues with graphics that look a bit shoddy, i.e. when you look down at the slums from atop the Midgar plate, and the VERY detailed characters can often look strange against the barely textured walls and props. Also a weird note aside, but I don't like that when the character runs through scenery, objects bounce off them like nothing; for example Cloud when running through Sector 7 can send steel girders flying, which slightly ruins immersion.

    BATTLE SYSTEM - The blend of ATB and button controls to dodge and switch between characters is fun, refreshing and exhilarating. The battles in this game made me sweat, not only do you have to think strategically about your next moves, but you have to execute them well too, by making sure your button presses, timing and positioning are in sync. I cannot wait for the WEAPON Battles....

    All in all, I was so worried about the FF7 Remake, I don't know how they could top the original, but so far to my delight they have. This is game is legendary.    … Expand

Los personajes de antaño cobran vida y son increíblemente emotivos y humanos. El respeto por el original se percibe en incontables detalles. El sistema de combate es adictivo y espectacular, además de ser un reto muy gratificante derrotar a los jefes en Difícil. Las referencias a los propios jugadores nostálgicos son magistrales, lástima que algunos haters no se parasen a pensar en ellas.

    Cierto que algunas zonas son de relleno, como en el reactor 5, el cementerio de trenes y el laboratorio de Hojo y que el final cambia demasiado el tono del resto del juego para volverlo demasiado épico sin necesidad, ya lo era originalmente. Pero son detalles menores de un juegazo que además tiene una duración muy ajustada. Lejos de ser como los pagados de la industria afirmaron, los escenarios no son tan pasilleros como te esperas (es un efecto del mapa, que te ayuda a orientarte, pero nada que ver con FFXIII) y hay barrios amplios y con muchas cosas que hacer y gente con la que interactuar. Tiene muchos minijuegos, algunos divertidos, otros no tanto, la verdad.

    Sobresaliente también el apartado sonoro. Las voces son geniales, todos los diálogos están grabados, algo que no sé si muchos juegos de esta complejidad pueden argumentar, y la música es soberbia. La original era una de las mejores bandas sonoras de todos los tiempos y esta orquesta y da profundidad a muchos de aquellos temas volviéndolos aún más épicos, si cabe. A eso hay que añadirle que la música es dinámica y se adapta a lo que realmente sucede en pantalla. Impresionante Sobre el final, pues te gustará más o menos, a mí me gusta bastante, pero tiene dos cosas que me parece van a darle mucho reconocimiento a este juego en el futuro. Primero, no deja obsoleta la obra maestra que fue el original. Así que si no lo jugaste tendrás que hacerlo aunque te pases el Remake. Segundo, ahora no sabemos qué va a pasar. Podían haberse limitado a hacer fanservice y copiar todo del original. Era más fácil, pero eso hubiese hecho de la espera un simple "a ver cómo se ve esto con gráficos de última generación". Ahora, aunque todo apunta a que la historia discurrirá por donde iba la original, no podemos saberlo al 100%, así que es como jugar a FF VII por primera vez.

    Gracias Squareenix por devolverme las hermosas sensaciones de mi adolescencia dos décadas después.    … Expand

Ogni tanto si sente che determinate sezioni di gioco siano state allungate parecchio rispetto all'originale, ma non risulta essere un difetto considerando che il titolo (venduto a prezzo pieno) deve presentare tutte le caratteristiche di un gioco completo di circa 30/40 ore di gioco. La struttura di gioco resta comunque molto lineare, ma non per questo mancano le chicche opzionali, squisitamente JRPG.
    I numerosi personaggi hanno avuto molto più spazio che nell'originale per ps1. I membri dell'Avalanche per esempio sono resi molto più "umani" e in generale l'estetica di gioco ha permesso che le emozioni dei vari personaggi venissero fuori in modo naturale e toccante.
    Il game play farà sicuramente scuola nello saturo panorama JRPG che raramente ha potuto vantare un ibrido tanto interessante. Si può adottare un approccio prettamente action ma la difficoltà (nella media rispetto agli standard) spinge ad utilizzare le pause tattiche per adottare strategie più complesse che rendono soddisfacente i scontri più concitati (che sono molti). Rispetto al quindicesimo capitolo della saga, qui il game over è molto più temibile se non si studia con attenzione il proprio equipaggiamento, soprattutto le materia. Le armi offrono approcci diversi allo scontro e possono essere customizzate in base alle proprie preferenze. In generale il gameplay è uno dei punti di forza del titolo, che mostra il meglio di sé nelle numerose bossfight. Durante tutto il gioco non sarà possibile utilizzare un party di più 3 personaggi giocabili, anche quando tutti i personaggi saranno nello stesso posto. Di questo problema ne risente soprattutto Red Xiii, che fungerà da personaggio di supporto non giocabile, sembrando inconsistente rispetto agli altri membri del party, anche dal punto di vista narrativo.
    Il comparto audio visivo è di grande qualità, soprattutto la gestione delle luci, dei dettagli ambientali e degli NPC, che rendono vivi i luoghi esplorati, nonostante certe volte sembrino un po' anonimi nel character design.
    Alcuni sfondi risultano sfocati e stonano parecchio con la minuzia con cui è curata l'ambientazione; inoltre a causa di alcuni bug, certi poligoni presentano texture non caricate che fanno storcere parecchio il naso, pur non influenzando troppo l'esperienza di gioco.
    La soundtrack del grandissimo Nobu Uematsu è una delle migliori che abbia mai ascoltato. Presenta una carrellata di brani che possono essere distinti in perfetti riarrangiamenti di musiche originali e nuove interessanti produzioni, come la bellissima "Hollow".
    Un difetto degno di nota riguarda la gestione della narrativa e delle bossfight nella parte finale di gioco. Nel tentativo di sorprendere i giocatori e "giustificare" il carattere stand alone di questi primo episodio, sono state apportate delle modifiche sul finale che, per quanto interessanti come forma di meta narrativa, hanno anticipato certe bossfight (o comunque l'impatto che ne sarebbe derivato) in modo non necessario, tradendo una certa paura nel non riuscire a completare i prossimi episodi. In breve sembra che Nomura abbia messo le mani avanti lasciando intendere che se non fossero riusciti finire il progetto ff7 Remake, almeno avrebbero lasciato un primo capitolo che a livello di bossfight avrebbe "chiuso il cerchio".
    Nel complesso il gioco rimane un piccolo capolavoro che se manterrà questo standard qualitativo per i prossimi episodi, potrà dare nuova vita alla saga di Final Fantasy. 8,75/10    … Expand

But look at what they gave us, a real life look at Midgar! This has been one of the best gaming experience I have gotten, but there are flaws here and there, mainly just texture loading which I think can be easily solved with the PS5 with subsequent parts of the Remake, as well as the dialogue at some parts there was one side mission in Sector 5 with the old man, the ending of that mission was with the old man mad at us but then Aerith talks to you and says "Isn't it great helping people?" so maybe they can improve that in the next parts. Now to talk about the elephant in the room, the ending, I understand those who didn't like it but it is called a 'Remake' for a reason and that reason is to re-imagine the story of the game, I think we should have faith in them I mean the scenario writer is still Nojima which is the same with the original. I personally liked the ending but if some didn't really like the ending, well that's fine but you might not want to buy the next parts now knowing what they're doing with the series. Overall I really liked the game, the combat was amazing, the story is fantastic, I might have played the game for 4 or 5 days straight, I'm still on the road to platinum but I'm almost there I only got 5 chapters left to play in Hard Mode and 2 VR bosses to fight and I'll get the platinum!… Expand

    I played the original game on PC back when it was released decades ago. Playing through this new version was like watching a 10 hour TV mini-series created from a 1.5 hour movie. They added a lot of content to the game, some of which was good, but mostly added a lot of padding to have enough content to make a sellable game.

They added a lot of content to the game, some of which was good, but mostly added a lot of padding to have enough content to make a sellable game. Aerith has been turned into an obnoxious chatterbox, which helps to occupy the time that was padded onto the travelling sections.

    Music has been shoved into the background in the remake, and is the worst change from the original. The original's music was very prominent and one of the most memorable aspects of the game. It created strong emotional ties to what was happening in the game. Whether it was the sense of mystery and discovery from the title theme, the energy and urgency of the battle music, or the presence given to the different locations by their respective theme music. All of that is missing from the remake. Music in the remake is very quiet and barely noticeable in most sections. You have to stop and intently listen for it to notice it.

    Combat was updated to an action RPG system, and I mostly like the changes. However, one key ability has an incorrect description that causes the whole system to fall apart. The character's focus abilities only increase the stagger gauge if the enemy is pressured. The in game description doesn't mention anything about the pressured state being needed for this ability to work. If the description had mentioned the pressured state, it would have set up the strategy of triggering pressure, using focus abilities to trigger stagger, and then dealing tons of damage during stagger. If I had know this during my playthrough on normal difficulty, it would have completely changed combat for me.

    I wish there had been difficulty setting in between normal and easy. Easy lets you win by mashing buttons. Normal difficulty was pretty challenging because I was still learning how to utilize character switching, aggro mechanics, and the stagger mechanics (thanks broken ability description). It should be fine for a second playthrough or Remake pt. 2/? if they don't change the combat. For my first time playing with this combat system, I found it more frustrating than enjoyable.

    Finally, this game has more loading screens disguised as characters squeezing through a tight place than my entire game collection combined.    … Expand

It's the same Midgar I grew up with, the same characters I grew up with, all of it is just how it should be, but modernized. The combat is really fun, I played in the action mode, with default settings and it was difficult enough that I felt like I was being challenged on bosses and harder quest enemies, but not so hard I wanted to launch the controller at the TV.

    The characters and voice acting is spot on with everything, there were a few characters I was worried about (I'm looking at you Barret) because of the scenes they used from him in the promotional material, but after finishing the remake, I can easily say he was probably the character I fell in love with the hardest. Everyone feels very real, if that makes sense, they all have their own personalities that have been expanded since the last game, and the acting is perfect for everyone.

    The additions that are exclusive to the remake such as a couple of characters, and where the story diverges from the original are actually very good, it keeps the game interesting, as it's something new now, but it still feels very nostalgic.

    My only real regret is it was over far too soon. The original FF7 was a 100 hour game in my mind, I finished this game with 32 hours on the clock, and I'd done pretty much everything I could in the game. I understand that a remake of this undertaking is going to take awhile, if if they were doing the whole game at once, it might not be done until 2025.. but I need more of it now. :(    … 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?
