7/22/2023 0 Comments Final fantasy vii remake pc review![]() It was weird in 1997 when it first came out and the Remake is equally so. That being said, it's my duty to evaluate and by the time this review is over, you'll have a tidy score that tries to capture my feelings about this game - distilling the complex concoction of influences both on myself and the team that made Final Fantasy VII Remake into something that should resemble a score - so pray for me, because here we go.įinal Fantasy VII is a weird game. And of course there's a matter of my own feelings toward the original game, which I've always respected but don't love the way others do. Trying to convince some fans otherwise would feel like an exercise in futility. Some fans are going to buy this Remake regardless I know people who are buying PlayStation 4s (less than a year before the next generation is due) just to play this game. Good game.I think the Final Fantasy VII Remake is good - but I don't know how much that matters. ![]() I did not like it as much as V, VI and it simply could not compete with RPGs on the PC, specifically, Daggerfall which was in a class of its own despite being 2 years older than FFVII (and was full 3D as well). I do think this was better than FFIX and certainly miles better than X which irked me to no end (I wanted to kill the characters in that game). Then again, FF games are all nonsense by design so this should not be a surprise. Ultimately, I didnt form any attachment to the character and so I didnt care for the story either. I didnt like or dislike Aerith finding her too cliche. The story is silly and I really did not like Cloud (at all) nor Sipheroth. The materia leveling system allowed for some character customization and beating the weapons was fun albeit required too much memorization rather than strategy. ![]() The fight system was the same as old turn based RPG's but they included full 3D summons that looked awesome at that time. The game itself was slightly above average for its time. But console gamers thought this was revolutionary (it wasnt). You will notice that PC gamers will generally review this game lower because they had better games available to them even before this game was released.

It is rather minor at first, but certain songs from the game, such as Sephiroth's theme, were dramatically altered by the cheap quality and sound nothing like the original, which takes away from the original experience or mood the game had given. The only reason I cannot give this game a 10/10, like I would it's PlayStation predecessor, is because of the smaller MIDI music files. ![]() FF7 manages to tell a phenomenal story that is much better than most of the RPG's out nowadays that use the most advanced graphics, motion cap, and facial expressions to help deliver their story. Its amusing to see how dated the graphics are, yet how intuitive the story telling techniques were. It feels good to be reminded that a great rpg just needs a great story. Well, I I just recently purchased this for nostalgia purposes and didn't even really think I could get back into the game after all this time.
