Which one is it?

Pretty spoiler-ific but I'll just say it might not be *just* a remake.

Can someone spoil it

---

Alternate timeline, time travel and

Bigbig spoiler

dont read if you cautious

at the very end og seph wants to help fix the timeline or something is what I gathered with a glance at them. Didn't want to spoil myself too much

end of big spoiler

Honestly, it not being a direct remake makes me want it more. Like, there will still be new experiences and won't be a complete retread of a game I've played a dozen times already.

Yeah but should have called it a sequel then

Holy fuck are they having a melty over there on that board. So many goddamn butthurt nerds.

i kinda remember Watchers of Fate already been spoiled since last year tho.

Thing is we didn't know what the extent of their involvement is. Thanks to the end game being spoiled we know exactly how far.

One thread calls Nomura the Rian Johnson of gaming.

Honestly....

This is a perfect way to do a remake. It's generally the same but you get some stuff that will be a fresh experience too

It's a huge swerve for sure

---

I have my own theories about what exactly is going on. Now I just gotta wait 100 years to see if I'm right.

---

So is it radically different or something? Like you don't play as cloud the whole time or a certain huge event happens earlier than expected

---

Funny thing is they promised to not change the story.

SE sure loves to break promises or lie about their games. Funny their fans still trust them.

Eh that seems like a lot of spoilers lol. I was looking for a more vague answer

You play as Cloud, but...well let's just say it's not as predictable, especially if you played the original.

I don't mind them taking a few liberties as long as it's roughly the same basic big story beats. I've still got the original I can go back to

There's definitely some liberties taken, but honestly it makes me all the more excited to see where it goes.

Yeah long as it follows the "mako being mined bad, Sephiroth bad, Cloud messed up" story and the characters are still similar to what they were I'll be fine

Exactly

If this was a 1 to 1 remake people would then be complaining "why waste my fucking money if I can play the original and get the same experience??"

Not looking at spoilers but it's clear it's a reimagining. The 'remaster' is really stretched. And kinda sucks. Nobody else wants to use that word now because FFVII has changed what it means.

This, I'm genuinely more excited about the game now.

As long as they end up at the same spot and the new stuff is interesting then cool

Vague answer is, this is shaping up to not be a remake.

Completely agree. I'm actually kind of excited for the game now.

...did you seriously put a spoiler warning inside a spoiler tag?

The second spoiler is huge so, much more pressing than the first as to the rammification on the next episode.

Sounds like SE's usual monkeys banging a keyboard writing.
