      Some things are fine in terms of lore expansion I think, like how they made Shinra really omnipresent and powerful, in the OG you wondered if that was really such a big thing with Turks and few mechas except for Junon canon.
      But yeah re imagining some scenario that was deep and all is a big down, to me it's oriented for Advent Children fandom rather than ffvii narration fans. They cheer for it without understanding why the OG is such a freaking masterpiece.

      ​@@DS94everXev Those challenges are just "Required" mini games.
      I'll be honest, I am replaying Rebirth because when I left off, it was at the Chocobo Races. Its mainly because I haven't practiced it enough. Its a very involved mini game.
      Also, the military parade section, while easier than most mini games, is still a requirement. Square should have treated all these sections like the cars game tournament, you should have the option to skip them, take the loss and move on.
      Your date with a party member should be based on multiple decisions made, not just 1 event. I just wish we had the OPTION, to skip mini game segments. They are not boss battles, those can be finished in a variety of ways. You can grind levels if you need to.

      @@elsten24 1. The military parade minigame was in the og. Including it here actually is cannon. This time you at least have more time to practice it and it's not as hard as og was for me.
      2. Chocobo races are supposed to be hard. You needn't win more than 1 time to advance the story. And chocobos are critical in ff7 og. You spend LOTS of time in og doing chocobo breeding to get different chocobos. Making you do a minigane that's integral to the story and in og isn't filler. It's consistent.
      Push x when the counter reaches 2 at countdown to get that burst start. If you don't learn how to drift it it very hard to win anything. Look carefully at the race. Every race has a section you can bypass to get catch up quicker. If there is a jump in a race don't just follow the track ahead of you. Look around to see if you can fly and land at a spot that bypasses some of the race track. You WILL LOSE. Deal with it! Learn from it!
      And get debonair chocobo equipment on Apoi (?) the 2nd to last chocobo you get. The one that can hover to run all your races.
      2. Your decision on party member dates in og was completely unknown to you the player unless you had a strategy guide.
      And that decision is based on MORE THAN 1 MINIGAME. I don't know who told you it wasn't, because a Google search proves there are multiple choices you make during different parts of the game THAT ALL contribute to who you get the date with. In New game plus you can select it.
      So if you want Tifa like me you purposefully give out jerk answers responses to other party members.
      And in new game plus I went from lvl 60 to 70 in about 20 to 30 minutes.
      So there you have it. Having to do a minigane 1 time isn't filler. It's a way for the game to let you learn about the minigane. And only every game in history does this (including og!) so it can't be an issue unless you never played any other game with mini-games in history.
      It really seems like you don't want the game to challenge you in the least bit. You don't want o have to figure out how to do something different and new to you. You don't want to ever lose at anything because if you do your ego falls apart.
      Having to win 1 race isn't going to kill you. And like virtually all mini-games in Rebirth, once you kinda get used to it,it's REALLY REALLY FUN! Including Queensblood. That is the ONLY card game in a videogame I've ever liked! ESO has a card game and it's impossible to learn. Impossible to end a game quickly. You're stuck having no idea what to do for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
      Square did a GREAT job with their minigames.
      You aren't an NES player. That's obvious. There is hard and there is NES hard! During that era there was a 0% chance of you winning a lot of their games without memorizing every part of every level. You get hit 1 time you die. Maybe you get 3 lives. Then after it's start over FROM THE BEGINNING OF THE GAME!! The gane requires you to memorize that requires you failing because when you get furtherbthan ever brfore you no longer knew where enemy spawns were or jumps were at. Games now are easy really.
      If you have the fortitude to play NES back then the fortitude required to play and complete at least well enough 1 mini game 1 time is in you.

    Are people really THAT impatient where they find the speed of the OG FF7 combat "Borderline unplayable" I just recently did a new playthrough of the PS1 era FF games again and i honestly thought the battles of 7 were pretty quick and snappy overall. Like as a kid i always thought they were pretty speedy and as an adult i still think so, If people think THAT is too slow, Wait till they play FF9 lol for some reason battles are VERY slow on 9. But man are they such incredible games. Those classic soundtracks along with those beautiful pre-rendered backgrounds just set up such great atmosphere, The graphics of 7 might not have aged the best, But truth is i still find myself getting far more immersed into 7's world on PS1 than i was ever able to get on the FF7 Remake games. Their graphics are phenomenal, But aesthetically they don't capture that gloomy-mysterious vibe in the way that the original does.

    Something that bogs me A LOT in this Remake and all the culture surounding FF7 over these last years is the extreme overuse of the One Winged Angel theme.
    In the original game, every time you take a glimpse on Sephiroth or in some "Sephiroth did that?" scenes where you only find his trail, the music that plays, if I remeber correcly is the Those Chosen by the Planet theme, which is quite a baddass theme that builds up for this villain figure you must fear. It's an impactfull sound that gives you chills. You only get the hear the actual One Winged Angel theme in the final battle agaist Sephiroth.
    Now the music is all over the place. It has been in every single video games music concerc, colection, list. And is played throughou the remake every single time you see a single flame of flashback from Sephiroth.
    A character even mentions the Sephiroth's name; The One Winged Angel them plays.
    You see a easter egg that slightly resembles Sephiroth; The One Winged Angel plays.
    It has completely lost it's impact.
    One winged Angel, amongs any Mario or Zelda theme has become the video game version of that guy that brings a Gittar to a friends meet up and starts playng Oasis.

    It wasted all of its "unknown journey" intrigue, went out of its way to lessen the impact of iconic moments for the sake of "good vibes", and refused to take anything seriously that required a darker tone.

      I'd place more stock in the fact that the original stuck with you for so many years despite, as you mentioned, a lesser showing in all the categories you've identified as being important when compared to the remakes.
      That impact is also due to what that game did in terms of scope for JRPGs in in the 90s (and forever after). FF7 was like a movie... beautiful pre-rendered backgrounds in a 3d environment, in-world cutscenes, complete innovation of classical JRPG mechanics.
      And it wasn't like FF7 was the only amazing thing dropped in 1997... Golden Eye, Diablo...Yet FF7 has continued to captivate for decades.
      I don't think the remakes have done anything remarkable. That is to say, I think they're quite competent in a lot of regards, but the foundation from which FF7 as a universe sits on (the original, crisis core, advent children) is completely solid, which I think is pretty evident and non controversial. I think if you 'kicked' the remakes out from under that foundation, we would remain net neutral.
      I do understand this is an opinion, but I would always point to the cultural significance of the OG game and challenge anyone to find a JRPG equivalent (not world of warcraft or diablo, etc) that has had this level of impact or reach.
      Extra monologues, weird story additions, and trying desperately to flesh out side characters (Biggs & Wedge) that are literally meant to be thrown away in every final fantasy ever, including the very NEXT game in the series, may be 'fun' and serve as additional head canon or enhanced fan service, but it simply is non-essential to Final Fantasy 7 as a story or universe. I would also challenge the notion that THESE 'extras' have exposed a lack of depth in the original characters. I suppose in a vacuum, and in a numbers game where our currency is sheer quantity, the more dialogue and A or B choices Cloud has = the more story or 'depth' we're being presented...
      Unfortunately though, that's a fairly simple interpretation and the stories of Cloud/Zack/Seph are already pretty well documented. I'm almost 200% sure listening to Cloud's thoughts about the bathing suits at Costa Del Sol has patently zero effect on understanding the motivations of the character, his relation to the world or the plot, or any other mission critical detail about FF7. I agree its fun fan-service BS that a lot of people WILL enjoy. But considering how much of the extra dialogue in this was just that...NON-ESSENTIAL is honestly the best way to sum it up.
      Which leads me back to my initial point of the significance the OG has... Myself (and many other fans) are confident they could have just re-skinned the OG with the aesthetics of Rebirth and made billions of dollars all the same. Obviously an oversimplification, but you get the point.
      But why do that when you could INSTEAD stretch it out over multiple releases * AAA price

You got the game you wanted, you loved it, you're the true Final Fantasy VII fans, wear that badge with pride! So why do you hunt down every single video expressing dislike for Remake, or Rebirth? Does a perfect amazing game need defending? Does it somehow make you love the game even more? If it's a victory lap of some sort, then it seems like a remarkably insecure one.

      If SE had streamlined the process and not padded out the game or screwed the with the story too heavily, people's kids would be playing this and it would have been a big hit. I don't like Kingdom Hearts because I didn't grow up with it but I can appreciate Nomura's autism in those games. KH was after my time but I grew up with Final Fantasy VII and from a narrative perspective, this was NOT the way to go. Ironically, I believe there is a mobile game that uses the chibi models that is more in-line with what old fans would have wanted, but it is an episodic gacha if I'm not mistaken?

    I am really sad that Square had to start their experimental “remakes as sequels” fase with ff7, every remaster or remake they made before was faithful to the original story of each FF.
    The success of these games sets a dangerous precedent to what companies can get away with when “remaking” old beloved classics.
    Many are awating for a Ff8 or Ff9 remake but how would they feel if it got multiversed to almost no recognition?
    And for those who say that “we have the OG just go play that”, have you ever played a remake in your life?
    Games like RE2 remake and other faithful remakes prove that there is a market for faithful remakes, more so for old classics where the technology of the time limited their presentation.
    I really hope that by some miracle somehow we still end up getting a faithful FF7 remake, even if that is just wishful thinking.
    Finally in terms of quality this game is so far from a masterpiece it really boggles the mind how it got so many perfect scores and how many people claim it should win GOTY, I really hope it doesn’t as it really lowers the bar for what a GOTY should be.

    Yep, I tapped out at Costa. Playing a bunch of mandatory and not particularly fun mini games after the previous Junon segments pretty much showcased how the rest of the game was going to go, and given I was already pretty sour on the story changes and massive bloat, well, I chalked it up to $70 misspent. I played the original in '97 and thought Remake, while a bit bloated, was overall fun with the combat. This just felt like a drag. Going to disagree with you on the visuals: performance felt awful with its downgrade and graphics mode was a blurry mess whenever you were moving. Like playing the game through a frosted window when not in a cut scene. A far cry from most of the other top shelf games on the PS5 like Horizon, God of War, or even FF16. Good review though, glad I stopped before getting to Gongaga.

      Did people like you actually even play the original? From the moment you leave midgar/Kalm, you are basically just chasing Sehph around the world. The game does not have the slightest bit of connective tissue in this regard. You are just wandering from place to place, hoping to get information about Sephy and the character backstories happen to be in the town. But you know nothing before then. There is this thing called build-up that the original lacks after the calm flashback all the way until the temple of the ancients. Rebirth fixes this problem by using Cloud's increasing mental distress as the plot buildup, which takes center stage in chapter 9 and escalates all the way to the end of the game.
      If people pulled their head out of their ass and took the time to understand that Cloud is the anchor point for the larger plot versus the original where they drop the plot from the moment you finish the flashback all the way until the temple and it's whiplash but noo you just want your half assed version of the story that doesn't bother to build up to anything. Following the clones might be on the nose but at least you know that the game is going somewhere SMH

      @@sartavin They're Marvel brained. These Demakes aren't stories but rather it is a story-about-a story. Which is the last thing many people wanted.
      Time travel & multiverses... there are so many pieces of media that try to pull this off or have done it that Robot Co-Op literally has a long list he reads out (not exhaustive) when Demake came out. You know, when SE was DMCAing videos because of SPOILERS but characters in the game have literal flash-forwards. The thing is, we've strayed so far from what "Remake" means, it is a bit nebulous. It's been a long time since the RE remake for Gamecube (very respectful & praised remaster). The respect for the original story or story beats are nonexistent in FF7D/FF7D:R
      Like if you've never experienced Steins;Gate but then you watch Terminator 2 you see the multiverses / time travel / "life stream effect" and you're like "wowie zowie!" because you don't have experience with books, movies, and games in general. I played the game in '97 and while I didn't want a remake I was excited... then SE did all this trickery.
      - naming it "Remake" (false advertising / extremely misleading marketing)
      - misleading interviews ("We're not going to recklessly change the story!" "Assume the story will take place as it does in the original." "This isn't apart of / will not include stuff from the Compilation games!")
      - DMCA funny business to stop people criticizing the game under the guise of spoilers, hence why you didn't see anything first 3 months of people pummeling Demake.
      - The pricing scheme, you're paying $70 x 3 + price of at least 2x new consoles (Stillbirth will never be on PS4, so if you played Demake on PS4, you needed to buy a PS5 to play Stillbirth. You will need to buy a PS6 to play FF7:ReT4rd) just to experience whatever this... is... plus DLC costs if you don't get the deluxe editions.
      However, young, impressionable, and ignorant people shrug their shoulders and are like "it's like, whatever" and are blinded by the flashy graphics & sakuga. *That's great. I wish I could have enjoyed it but after consuming a lot of media I actually want good stories, interesting characters, subtlety. People doing victory laps over the video game with the story that might be a bit flimsy in places, but was charming & touched the hearts & minds of many young people and taught them about loss pissing on it "FU GRANDPA! THIS AIN'T YOUR PSX FF7!" - I mean, yeah... of course we'd be pissed off.*

    Back when Remake came out I of course hated the ending and I thought that it would have been much better to end that game at the Nibelheim flashback and letting you discover who Sephiroth is and also let you play as him so your mind is blown at his power compared to the players at the end of part 1, of course this can only work if you scrap the fight against him.
    Having it as the beginning of part 2 and after you have already defeated a Sephiroth in part 1 and already know what he is capable of, doesn’t quite work to the extent it would in part 1 IMH, but it is nice the added it nonetheless.

    Its understandable for SquareEnix to go fullblown on the Remake trilogy, and I believe it is the right choice if it is to make money and succeed with the masses. A 1:1 remake of FF7 would not be as successful IMO. We will always have OG FF7 for the initial story but the original developers are involved here and it is their story at the end of the day to remake.

What they should have do (maybe the will someday who knows they can milk this game for ages) is to do a faithful remake with expanded content and ofc in one game kinda like Re4 Remake, and it would be a massive success, cuz Remakes of Resident Evil are success (except RE3 but that was a garbage but even it was pretty successful money wise)

    Have to say I thoroughly enjoyed Remake, and thought Rebirth was levels above that. Basically to the point it's been the best FF experience I've had (non XIV) since probably X or even OG 7. It's still only part of a re-imagining, though, so hard to rank completely on its own without the entire Remake project completed. It is interesting to hear some of the takes, both in the video and the comments. I'll never understand why some people thought it was going to be a 1 to 1 remaster, though. They did interviews days after the initial trailer back in 2015 stating there were going to be changes and essentially stating straight out it wouldn't be 1 to 1.

    You don't get the point?
    Here, let me explain it for you.
    The R trilogy features the original story as its A-Plot, with all of the new elements added as a B-plot.
    FF7: A plot (original unchanged story)
    Sephiroth, a man born of an Alien, is killed by Cloud. He reaches out from beyond the grave to manipulate a group of Hero’s into performing a task for him that dooms the planet. This allows him to attempt to consume and control the planet's life force.
    The group of Hero’s set out to stop him and lose a dear friend along the way. Aerith acts from within the lifestream at the 11th hour to foil Sephiroth’s plan.
    FF7 R: B Plot (New story elements told with time travel & dream world elements)
    Sephiroth, a man born of an Alien, is killed by Cloud. He reaches out from beyond the grave to manipulate a group of Hero’s into performing a task for him that dooms the planet. This allows him to attempt to consume and control the planet's life force.
    The group of Hero’s set out to stop him and lose a dear friend along the way. Aerith acts from within the lifestream at the 11th hour to foil Sephiroth’s plan.
    (Sephiroth died at the end of Classic7 and appears to be whispering back in time through the lifestream, his new plan is just an updated version of his old plan that requires changing the future to usurp the planet, these are the exact same core story beats)
    Its the same story told again on-top of itself. To add a little mystery for old players and new players who already know the story through cultural osmosis.
    Sephiroth seems to have set the party up to "Save" a version of Aerith within the lifestream. This will allow him to manipulate the player and Cloud into helping him change the future as this would bring her back. We will learn that we have to reject his plan and "accept death" ultimately choosing to keep Aerith dead as an act of player agency. Proving that we ourselves accept death.
    Why?
    The original game was very good at presenting us with the feeling of loss.
    R Trilogy seems to be expanding on this. The stated theme is "accepting death" and it seems to be exploring the catharsis that can be achieved by fully moving towards acceptance and exploring the complexities of the relationships we have with people after they are gone. It seems to be exploring this primarily through the themes of "Hopes & Dreams".
    Its really not that hard to understand what they are going for at all if you think about it.

    Watched the video. While I do have a lot of prpblems with many of the criticisms, one that stood out to me the most was your take on Yuffie's inclusion. I for one did not want her optional. Characters being optional in the ig sycked since they couldn't take part in any real ways. They were just there. Yuffie and Vincent didn't even appear in the wnding fmv. She could not be optional otherwise the only solution is to essentially make her disappear during any story scenes. You can argue they can just do what the og did, but they can't. In the og after midgar since you only had 2 characters aside from Cloud with you at most points and scenes, only those characters would get dialpgue, and barely any at that. With Rebirth, all characters are with you at all times. So all scenes are crafted with everyone being there in mind, which is a plus. Her being mandatory is a good thing in my opinion. She and Vincent even were originally gonna be mandatory characters in the og but they couldn't due to time constraints.
    Now, maybe they could have included her in a different way, not optionally, of course. I'll say that at least.

Baldurs Gate 3 has entire companion story events, voice lines, and interjections that belong to completely optional companions. Did that stop Larian Studios from including the companions in meaningful ways? Or even more broadly, does it make sense to cut the Haligtree and Malenia from Elden Ring, even though that content is optional?
      Something, or someone, being optional should have no bearing on their story presence. I fail to see why Yuffie couldn't have everything she has in the game now but still be optional.

      For instance why are the ring so prominent and what is the real meaning behind them? Rinoa has one and Squall has his Griever ring. Why is it called Griever?
      I have in mind a version of the story where Squall does die, in what I call the Alpha timeline. But my story takes place in the Omega timeline. Laguna learns from Ellone that his son he never knew has been killed. So he sets out to find a way to alter the past and finds the key lies in Tears Point where a Time Crystal is hidden.
      So then we have an Omega timeline where Squall does survive and that original 1999 game was Squall dying but instead of his life flashing before his eyes he see a glimpse of a alternate timeline where he does survive. That’s why the game lack so much detail.
      I even created a new villain character named who is a sorceress android godlike entity that was born from all the meddling of time in order to bring order to the chaos. But also she’s like a Roko Basilisk where she is the inevitable and ensures her own existence.

      The way they did it here, they put all of that story together. Not spread put. It's WAY more impact full. And it pushes the truth about who Cloud loves.
      Tifa.

      @@DS94everXev You called the original discombobulated... while the ending to Rebirth exists. Taking a simple, poignant, powerful moment and turning it into one of the most discombobulated, most contrived and convoluted things I've ever witnessed in a video game. Lol

      Without hyperbole, I think it's about 70%. I did all of the bullshit in the game, because I like the battle system and wanted the Materia being held hostage from the most wannabe Yakuza mini-game suite. When I saw "Hard Difficulty" for Fort Condor I immediately held down the PS button and shut that whole situation the hell down.
      But 30% for battle time and cutscenes is fair.

      Take away the side content and it’s 30 hours of gameplay and about 50% of that is cutscenes and conversations.

      Lol 95% of that "fluff" is better than most games main story content. Not even including the main story, OST, gameplay being insane on top of that. It's like 100+ hours of content and it's all a blast.
      In comparison, just finished all the missions in Space Marine 2. Totally badass game, super fun, good story, characters, etc. The game is like 10 hours long. The fact that Square can put out a 100 hour game that is consistently good the entire time is insane. You guys are just stuck in the past.

    FFVII story was a good game at that time because it was an adult story which also left things to everyone ´s imagination.
    The problem I see in Rebirth is they do not build characters, they add empty fill series.
    I see Charlie as an insult.
    Aeris ´s death has been censored. Tifa and Aerith are woke girls and do not have personality.
    The characters should be more serious, adult, and explore their motivations, fears, ambitions, doubts and see how the characters grows.
    In my opinion they can change things from the original but you have to add life, spirit to every character and every situation and they have not done it.

    some of us OG fans in Wakanda had problem the fact they destroy the OG story, with KH shenanigans, rather expanding it (WISP THINGY, TIME TRAVEL BULLSHIT), if they can't expand the OG story, just continue what's left of the OG or AC with new generations....
