Played the OG like 20 years ago.

These invisible creatures attacking Aerith? This Marcus dude that lives next to Cloud?

Lol no. It's all new. I won't spoil exactly why, but at this point it's probably safe to tell you that this isn't actually a remake.

Those ghosts are physical manifestations of the director of Final Fantasy 7 remake and what he's trying to do versus the original. They are completely new. They get explained.

Dont expect the full original game either. Despite it being plainly called Final Fantasy VII Remake it is not a remake of the entirety of Final Fantasy VII

No. The remake incorporated a bunch of stuff from other games and some scrapped concepts. The invisible creatures were part of the original story boarding but didn't make it into the final game. They were brought back for the remake.

No, they added enough padding to extend 3 hours of the original game into an entire game of its own

The Whispers were not, no. They were very explicitly made as a "mechanic" of the universe to attempt to force the original story and are completely new to the remake in its entirety. In that extent there are interviews from Nojima, the person who did FFVIIR's story, who explicitly talks about how he designed them specifically for the remake (and how he had to submit requests to even make them look like ghosts).

Nope. Call it the Shonen Jump filler.

Yeah the game is clearly a sequel of some kind. You'll see.

I was pissed off they advertised it as a remake. I mean it's even in the title.
And they even gave us a demo of the very beginning of the game which is the only part that's faithful to the original story.

Like others have said, the remake title is misleading. The game is actually a sequel and you'll eventually understand how that works.

That's why I won't buy FF7 remake part 1 and 2 until they release a version that is sold together and for $20 or less on PC. Can't let greedy ass game companies split one game into multiple games when it could've been released as one game.

No, and to understand everything you're gonna have to remember everything in the OG games and see how these new things are affecting the events.

Shit, maybe I should play both simultaneously?

It's both a sequel and remake. Aerith and Sephiroth are battling via the Lifestream using another timeline to change things iirc. Zack is also alive from the trailer for Rebirth.

It's not really a sequel, it's incorporating the material released after the original game (all of it, Advent Children, Before Crisis, Crisis Core, Dirge of Cerberus) with some weird time travel stuff to tell a modified version of the original game story.

I don't mind, I'm interested to see what's going on.

But, I can understand the people who were upset that this wasn't a strict remake. That name is clearly misleading.
