So this screenshot is a pure mockup, isn't it?

It will be shit.

I never asked for a remake.

It doesn't need a remake.

>>382303369
Yeah, I'm really interested in what they're doing with the battle system.
The ATB is one of my favorites because of its method of blending real-time and turn-based elements.
The remake looks to be taking things further.

After the massive clusterfuck that was FFXV, no, I'm not excited. Especially since it's episodic

>>382303369
Square-Enix are inept at making decent games and are currently in the process of burning their second party acquired studios

>>382303718
this so hard

>>382303460
So this post is pure autism, isn't it?

>>382303765
What?

>>382303812
Huh?

>>382303718
what did you forget each game in the series has a radically different combat system each iteration

>>382303369
>not the classic stay still, input commands and attack
>must walk around and bash your enemies like KH
>Episodic DLC
Fuck that shit

>>382303369
I like the graphics. And like all games thats marketed for its graphics i'll just watch lets plays of it instead of purchasing the game.

>>382303840
Combat was my favorite part of XV, with the exception of how magic was handled. Everything else was a let down

>>382303369
not really, they can never top the experience we had playing it the first time on the original. anything like this... star wars... book adaptations... remakes are always a disappointment. they can't ever top the original experience. square isn't the same either, so expecting it to be the square of your childhood isn't going to happen. we've all got our ideas of how it should be too and it's not going to cater to everyone.

>Combat was my favorite part of XV

>>382303863
>DLC

but each part is going to be a full blown game how would DLC work?

>>382303369
No way in hell. Not ever. Square's completely butchered their icon franchise since 13. It's just gonna be another washed up nonsensical CG experience all over again

>>382304131
Was one of my favorite things to. I cant wait for the next mainline to refine the combat.

Im actually playing xenogears right now and having a good time too but not everything needs to have X combat type

>>382304307
Right sorry, it's even worse than DLC, it's DLG

Not exactly.

But I'll just have to see more of it before I can really judge it.

>>382303579
Then don't buy it and ignore it

>>382304131
It's what the game did best, even if it was flawed. The barren open world is fucking awful. Unfortunately I didn't make it to chapter 13, or whichever one is the start of the linear gameplay. I was looking forward to getting away from the open world. The story might not be bad, but the way it was handled was a fucking disaster. Music and graphics were decent, as always, I guess

I just want the original without random encounters. Is that so much to ask for?

>>382303369
How could I not be excited to play as the whole VII party in real time action? I'm not hyped but I'm a bit excited to get some more news, which will grow as it comes closer to release.

>>382304307
A common first time player took 70 hours to finish the original FF7 and that's ONE game.
They say midgar is gonna be the whole world in the first episode of the remake wtf in the next releases you cant visit midgar anymore?

>>382304952
I really hope they don't fuck up the comfy feeling. FFVII just makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside for some reason, even though I first played it in 2013.

>>382304952
yeah I'm mostly looking forward to seeing Red XIII again & Yuffie for her date with Cloud

>>382303369
>hp already that high at that point of the game and doing damages in the thousands
>we want the South korean MMO audience
no way fag

If they had any sense they would put in a "heli" flight to the gold saucer in ep 1. Some extra mini games would be a plus as well. Extra bosses + a way to power up for the next episode.
My idea is sort of lifted from the .hack games. CC corp was involved with FF7R so i hope they do the same as the .hack franchise in regards to how to split up content.

>>382305151
>what is a tutorial

>>382305151
I miss the time where knocking off 10 hp out of your enemy is considered a super attack.

>>382303718
>>382303758
XV was fantastic.

>>382304131
XV has the best combat in the franchise because it's the only one where you feel directly in control of individual actions with more freedom than in other FFs.

xv-kun?

>>382304956
Mistake. You are grossly over estimating FF7's length. 30h no more.
When is the last time you played it, how long as it been ? Shut up, man.

>>382305721
Yes and I'm right.

>>382305665
Combat is good, but the fucked over magic too much for it to be the best in the series

>>382305760
> Not chocobo hunting and racing
> not maxing KOTR for main team
> Not prepping for the emerald, black and Ruby weapons
> not attempting to get all ultimate weapons and final limits
> says they completed Ff7
> completed

It's not a game, it's an experience. Even without doing all that, my quickest run was 50 some odd hours, no way in hell it's only 30, bosses take prep, enemies are a pain with random encounters, I think you severely underestimate all the dialogue and encounters, I have all my chat settings set at the highest speeds and there's still no way to do that

>>382306352
I barely beat it in like 32 on one of my first playthroughs where i skipped all the side stuff

>>382305760
Last game I played clocked 99 99 99 on it after i've mastered all the materia, got myself a golden chocobo and replaying golden saucer over and over again for omnislash. you need to shut your speedrunner "i play it for the memes" millennial whore mouth and let your seniors do the talking dipshit.

>>382306438
Did you run straight to sephiroth as soon as disc three started wtf (assuming you have a hard copy, if not I think it's right after the Cloud X Tifa cut scene in front of the Highwind)

>mfw I'll be in my fucking 40s before this game comes out

>>382306562
This, holy shit, and if it's your first time, on disc one where you needed the key to the temple, having to figure out that Dio at the golden saucer had it in his treasure collection was a pain in the ass

>>382306636
I literally didn't do any side content at all. Went straight through the game. It did take me a long time to beat Sephiroth though

It was my first JRPG and I didn't have a clue what I was doing

>>382306352
Ignore him. Probably some dipshit millennial that used max damage cheats on ePSXe so he can "experience" the OG game and thinks he's old enough to talk about FF7.
Nobody I know that finished the game IRL ever had less than 70 hours on the clock.

>>382306840
Do you read any guides on the internet? Back then people got stuck all the time on certain parts of the story and have to grind for hours before they magically find out what to do next.

>>382307350
No, because I did play it "back then". I did have a friend help me though

>FF VIIR Mission I: Lower Midgard

>>382308067
>Midgard
What did memeing newfag mean by this?

>>382308185
It's been like 15 or more years since I played FF VII, anon, be nice. I forget where the Reactor area is located in.

I'm an FF Vfag, that I play every once in a while, VII I haven't played since the literal PS1 days.

>>382308428
He meant it's Midgar not Midgard. Also it's on the upper level but whatever

>>382308865
Oh shit, Midgard is the huge magitech city is from Tales of Phantasia, no wonder.

>>382306352
i did everything and maxed leveled, 40 hours at the end. Now I never have to play this pitiful mess again.

>>382305596
>>382305665

No, it was pretty much garbage, both gameplay and story were terrible.

>>382303369
I'm excited for the remake for now but they're inevitably gonna fuck up Tifa's breasts and at that point I'll drop it and never look back.

I'm willing to give them a pass at episodic format.
Large scale game development is so fuck-off expensive nowadays that it NEEDS giga-millions just to break even.
And if they really intend to not only adapt the whole thing, but also expand on it as they imply, then we're reaching GTAV levels of budget and required sales - something for which nostalgia alone won't come close to being enough.

With advent of things like polygonal graphics, animations, actual music instead of midis, voice acting etc - game development costs exploded, it's no longer a 20 people team working a year or two on an AAA class game.

Nowadays, AAA games and story driven rpg are so advanced on a technical level, that teams of hundreds work on them for upwards of three years, pushing the costs into 50-100 mil $ range, with expansive behemoths like GTAV going past 200 mil $.
With game prices essentially locked at 50/60$ since two decades, you're no longer guaranteed a profit. Far from it - you NEED to sell mega millions just to break even with the investment.

>Fuck, AAA market is diseased

>>382309158
No it was fantastic.

>>382307429
By back then I meant when internet wasnt a thing and the ps1 was still new and you're not 3 years old.
