THEGODDAMNBATMA 06/20/21 3:40:22 PM #1:	the Midgar part of the original was like 3 - 6 hours, but they were somehow able to turn those 3 - 6 hours into a game that takes just as long to beat as the entirety of the original* and make it flow so well that you wouldn't even notice. This is fantastic. I can't wait for the next part. I played FF7 with 3x speed, so really even though I beat it in 30 hours it was probably closer to 90 in reality if I hadn't used the speed up. <cite>THEGODDAMNBATMA posted [p:955242826] in They reall...

jiffdiff 06/20/21 4:11:34 PM #2:	I enjoyed it, but I don't think Midgar needed to be an entire game. It was the worst part of the original and will likely be the worst part of this. At about the halfway mark I wished I could leave the city and it left a sour taste in my mouth to realize it'd be years before I got to explore outside of the city. <cite>jiffdiff posted [p:955243704] in They reall...

Smarkil 06/20/21 11:41:11 PM #7:	Aside from the atrocious change to the story that led up to an even worse ending, it was a very good game. I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt and hope that they were trying to aim for a clean slate deal with the story changes. The OST updates/changes were incredibly good, the expansion of the existing characters backstories was great, and overall the battle gameplay was solid. But I think they overdid it with the a good deal of the sidequests - they're mostly just standard boring 'open world' sidequests. And there are parts that drag on. I'm also incredibly annoyed that I wasn't able to go into the secret room in the bar. --- I promise that if the game stinks I will make a topic about how I hate it and you can all laugh at me - Mead on Fallout 76 <cite>Smarkil posted [p:955257829] in They reall...

Archgoat 06/21/21 12:37:07 PM #10:	I agree, I was pretty hesitant about the change to the battle system and that it was only part of the original game, but I bought it on sale a few months after it came out and it was was a top 3 game for me last year. The nostalgia of the original does help though. <cite>Archgoat posted [p:955272313] in They reall...

Makes me feel like it was an attempt to justify any other alterations to the plot Thats what I figured. It wasn't enough to make me hate the story but it was very deus ex machina and ruins the build up you saw with Sephiroth in the OG. If I recall correctly, you don't really see anything of old Sephy until the flashback in Kalm in OG? But I enjoyed the Soldier stuff too. I'm hoping they become kind of a staple.
