I'm going to miss the eternal nighttime feeling of the setting. It always felt too bright when you went to corel, because it had that same filthy aesthetic.

Have we seen anything in regards to Chocobos? I wouldn't be surprised if there was some chocobo racing based gambling around the wall market sector 6 stuff.

Oxxidation posted:replaying the early parts of FF7 has me wondering what they're going to do with the shinra tower Bear in mind that for the ps1 game the pacing made sense for there to be lots of minigames and bonus floors in shinra HQ because you went from; Don Corneo's sewers to fighting on the pillar, then immediately climb to the shinra hq. There's little in the way of a rest period between the wall market and shinra hq. It's likely that since the remake will flesh out everything and add new content, probably change old stuff, that getting from the fighting on the pillar with the turks and getting to the upper floors of shinra HQ could be hours apart. I'm really curious how they handle the prison scenes, since we won't be topdown, I'm just wondering what it might look like.

I'm pretty sure I've spotted Shiva. That would indicate that summons will be in Midgar, and not spread out like in FF7. The Chocobos at the farm better still do a dance though.

The plot of FF7 gets fairly convoluted, and especially filling in how Cloud got to Midgar, and the time right before that would be neat. I know it was in another media format that he basically went from the tubes to midgar and zack died getting him there, but its not really laid out very well in the game. The first time the game starts to fill in the blanks is when go to the Glacier. I think if you try to get someone familiar with FF7 to on the spot spell out the beats of the plot they get to Junon before it starts to fall apart, and the most dedicated can talk you to the Tiny Bronco. I replayed the game last year and I have trouble piecing together the plot without looking at some reference material. There is so much that could be done to connect the scenes better. Like that stupid plot with stopping Shinra from getting the Huge Materia just kinda falls apart and seems really pointless, why did we blow up that rocket again exactly? FF7 is remembered for all the neat scenes and set pieces, but the overall plot is weak, considering what people expect today. As for thinking about where Part 2 and 3 and so on might cover, FF7 is fairly cleanly split into three parts already. 1) Midgar & Flashbacks in Kalm (which it looks like they will integrate into the Midgar section given the promo stuff) 2) Chasing Sephiroth Across the World; where you travel and visit all the major locations of the world, eventually ending up in the Glacier/Crater. 3) Revisiting different parts of the world and running around dealing with the "big crisis" and the finale.

ItBreathes posted:Eh, Shinra is already after avalanche at the start of FF7R now, since they tried to kill president Shinra in one of the prequel games, something that wasn't true as of the original release. Jessie says it went boom bigger than expected, but it never implies Shinra had a hand in it. In original FF7 they drop the plate just to kill avalanche since they keep blowing up reactors. It's heavily implied that Shinra are done with the Midgar project, and simply don't care anymore. They just want the promised land. Dropping the plate is more an act of malice than to shut down avalanche.

From what I can gather, there seems to be contradictory lore from the different games? Like how exactly does Zack die, was he gunned down or was it a missile from a chopper?

Elentor posted:Something to always keep in mind about Final Fantasy in general is that with the exception of the unexpected success of FFXIV, the Japanese kinda don't give a gently caress about the FF series anymore. So what? Not everything needs to be a cultural icon. It's still a Japanese game, in so much as any game made by big international companies are.

I figured this is mostly because FF15 didn't sell well when it released in Japan. How much of that is the decline of consoles and how much is it a lack of interest or marketing?

Chieves posted:To be fair, isn't Midgar is linear as hell, even in vanilla FF7? You really DON'T have a need to even think of backtracking through most of it- it's just setpiece after setpiece. The wall market and sector 6 and 7 are very open and explorable.

The Barret date is pretty disappointing. Yuffie date is the best date. It's platonic, its like taking your kid to disneyland, its not creepy like the aeris one, and the tifa one is the default. I wonder if in the remake you will just get to pick.

I always figured they were mostly mechanical, but with mushy fleshy bits underneath, like EVAs. Looking closely to the old FMVs though they do look like monsters don't they.
