transience 12/27/19 9:07:10 AM #115:	74. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrmfrWhyTAY FF7s setting is pretty incredible. I cant say enough positive things about the oppressive tone that permeates Midgar. Even when you get to the overworld, it still manages to hold you down through its great sound design (audio quality notwithstanding, and its not something I hold against the game) and great world design. Unfortunately, the game playing part of FF7 is actually pretty mediocre. This isnt a shot at ATB because I love me some ATB. The battles just arent very fun and the bosses are surprisingly underwhelming. For a game that features such an interesting cast of characters, this game doesnt really have a standout boss fight, at least not in a good way. When I think of standout FF7 fights, I think of the Midgar Zolom and I think of Supernova. Everything inbetween just doesnt work that well. This is why Im so damn enthralled by the upcoming FF7 remake. That game takes the best aspects of FF7 and amplifies them, especially on the cinematic side, and then rethinks all of the battle mechanics to make them seem more interesting. I might not love FF7 like others do, but the story beats, even the quiet little moments, are absolutely iconic in every way and I cant wait to see what they do with it. It is without a doubt my most anticipated game even though there are sequels to top 25 games coming out in the next 3 months. --- xyzzy <cite>transience posted [p:932111386] in transience...
