I gotta know-- 1.) Did you have some sweet MIDI synthesizer action going on for the game's soundtrack soundfont, and 2.) Do you prefer it to the original PS1 arrangements

I had and it sucked. I played a lot with all soundfonts I could find, but it was all still a wet fart, especially by the time you reached the end. The process of messing with soundfonts in itself was more entertaining than listening to the final results.

Edit: All the geocities pages ruled though.

Yeah it was midi, and it ruled. The soundtrack was amazing, I listened to that poo poo even when not playing.

Honestly I only knew the midi version and after listening to the ps1 Ost on Youtube i still prefer it.

That, and swapping Barret for Prompto will be the best mods.

There’s a recent interview where either Nomura or Kitase say the Honeybee Inn scenario has been expanded rather than cut.

That is hilarious, the fan theory for years now has been that the scene would be cut.

Mako eyes, in my child mind, were like SUPER hosed up. Like horribly so because of how many people instantly notice it. So I guess it's kinda disappointing that they're only slightly glowy green.

the eyes on cloud's field model were more fluorescent than a neon sign, so yeah, they definitely downplayed in the remake

I already have abnormally high expectations and if those 3 minutes are any indication they might even be exceeded.

Which actually brings up an interesting question I had about this demo, was how do we know this isn't just from E3 or some other limited time event to play it? But the main menu at the top shows a buy now option, which wouldn't be there in the other demos. Very ready to play this demo, and absolutely buying the game.

I enjoyed how faithful it was to the original intro. Capcom pulled it out the bag for Resident Evil 2, maybe now after the success of Shadowbringers Square can keep some of that momentum going.

lol, while FFVII Remake looks great, do not take that to mean you should ever have any faith in Square-Enix.

Good ideas generator

Do we know anything about the demo? Will it give you a save file that can just carry across into the main game?

I might just wait till release if not.

I would think so since it starts at the very beginning of the game.

Yeah, demos letting you carry over progress seems to be the big new trend, and Square's already done it with the DQ11S demo and Builders 2.

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."


Carryover demos are popular with persistent world, always-online games but I don't think a single-player RPG would really qualify. I think it'll just be a demo.

If the Demo carries over to the full release, great. If not, come March, I'll be able to breeze through the Demo portion, because I'll have played it to the point that I can do it in my sleep.

Another reason why I'm guessing the demo will not carry over save data: I fully expect Square-Enix to be fine-tuning the sweat gleam on Barret's chest until midnight 3/3 and the demo version might already be incompatible with the final product.

The one thing that makes me nervous is that Square-Enix is not making a big thing out of this demo. I wonder if they are going to quietly release it on PSN, or if it's not meant to be out for a few more months now. Maybe closer to the release of the full game.
