God that sounds so ridiculous. Look at what you just said. Imagine to be hyped to play a fraction of a filler bloated remake / reimagining that is over 20 years old.

by many accounts, a great filler bloated remake/reimagining that is over 20 years old.

I am genuinely impressed with Square that after over a decade of broken promises, people are not just buying an unfinished product but are actually shilling for it too.

---

So let's assume its 4 parts. That's $240 for a remake of a ps1 game. Wtf

each part will presumably be a full experience, expanding on the source material it covers.

it's like, if you split different parts of a movie, for example, and adding on to them to create a mini-series.

Why assume its 4 parts when its obviously going to be 2 or maybe 3

Cuz there's alot of shit in the original and midgar is a small chunk of it. Still more than 60 is too much, especially for a fucking final fantasy game

They can always throw the rulebook out the window and change up a lot of things to fit 3 games.

The original game was 3 disks and the third disk was just postgame and final dungeon

4 new games would typically cost that much, yes

No, it's 4 games. The remake itself is pretty substantial. What you want is something unrealistic. Do you attack other game series for this?

I, for one, am entertained by all the salt and hate energy this remake is garnering.

Are you people that delusional? I mean if you want to bend over and let se fuck your asses raw then go ahead.

I bring this up all the time and nobody gives a valid response. Nobody hates the Mass Effect trilogy because its 3 parts of one game sold as 3 separate parts.
Nobody hates Lord of The Rings because it was 3 parts of one movie sold as 3 parts

Lol this is like if JK Rowling re-released HP and the Sorcerer's Stone in 4 separate parts because they added illustrations on every page.

I remember when .hack did this. First series was 4 games, second was 3. Offered about 15-20 hours each not counting endgame content for $40.

Nobody bitched.

Jk rowling already released harry potter as 7 parts
Hell, they even adapted one book into 2 movies

---

Instead of thinking of it as 4 parts of one game, think of it as its own series.

Like, instead FF7R Part 1/2/3/4

Think of it as "Jenova Chronicles 1, JC2, JC3, and JC4"

I dunno, makes it easier to swallow, maybe.

or not. whatever.

This seems like common sense to me and its actually frustrating that other people dont understand this tbh

People were mad when they adapted one book into 2 movies. And FF7 is one whole, self contained story that was released as one product already, not a series unto itself lol if you dont understand the difference I'm not sure what to tell you.

Its you who doesnt understand the difference. Youre saying ff7r is one game in multiple parts but i already told you its just one story in multiple parts. You people are getting upset over literally nothing of importance.

If it was a straight remake, I'd continue being annoyed over the several parts. it isn't, though, and it's very likely going to continue having content that doesn't make one game feasible at all. So I'm aight with it now.

It's completely okay to acknowledge that this is a really fucked up way to release a game and still be hyped btw. Like there's tons of people online that aren't even aware that this is just part of a whole game they played when they were teenagers lmao the marketing is shady at best.

Story. Part of a story

Nobody has indicated that this is an incomplete Game
Just that its part 1 of a multi part story

Nah it's an incomplete game, at least in regards to what they're advertising. "FF7 Remake" implies that it's a remake of FF7, not a remake of the first few hours of FF7. Honestly if it were called FF7 Remake Part 1/365 or whatever the fuck SE names their shit now it would be more forgiving.

They've been saying constantly for what, 2 years that it was going to be in episodes?

I'm confident that the majority of the people who buy the remake aren't 100% following the news on this game.

I don't agree with it being episodic, but that information is out there and has been for some time. It's not on SE, regardless of people's thoughts on it.

Yeah they should have probably put Part 1 or something on it though.

If the only issue is that the title is bad (i dont disagree) that still doesnt make it a bad game.

Were they? I just remembered thinking that they should have done it starting with book 4.

Now, the splitting up of the hobbit into three parts was an abomination.

Maybe Ill finally get around to trying out the demo tonight. If I like the combat I may give it a shot. Im concerned that the obvious padding they did was just stupid sidequests and fetch bull shit, the likes of which destroyed 15.

I guess well see.

The EGM review made it sound like it is a lot of obvious padding

Glad I saw this topic before buying the game. I'll wait til they release the whole thing as a collection for $60 or less
