7 again what?

It was far shittier than anticipated to be fair

I don’t think so. Seems to be doing well and a lot of people enjoy it. I think you’re just really determined to not like certain things.

>35 hours
>a full game
A proper RPG is 120 hours and more

Thoughts?

Funny to see people complaining about padding them defend the original for the stupid amount of padding it had and pacing issues

I'm 30 and have never put over 100 hours into any game in my life

it's shit but not because of the plot changes or reduced content.
It's shit because of the combat.

then you're a casual normie and should go back to plebbit

>stupid amount of padding it had and pacing issues
Funny this only ever started cropping up after the remake came out

As someone who has been playing it everyday this week, I disagree. it's comfy and the combat is solid, even with time jannie shenanigans abound.

I don't get how people put so many hours into single games without going crazy from boredom. I have a friend on steam and he has like 1000s of hours in the 3 modern fallout games and skyrim and basically plays nothing else

I like the combat. What exactly is your complaint about it?

>'Final' Fantasy
>part 7
>it's a remake
>it's a sequel

Those games maybe, but there's plenty of games that don't get boring after 100 hours. Maybe stop playing fucking movies and get some actual games.

Based fuck jrpgs

Look I genuinely do like FF7R but this right here does kinda tick me off.

>I made up my own definition of a remake and decided that FF7R isn't one based on that
Hmm

>I took what everyone understands a remake to be and pretended like it was always a completely different definition so people would stop criticising nomura-san

>>I took what everyone understands a remake to be
Like I just said, the idea of "a remake needs to be like the original and can't deviate in the story" is something you made up for yourself. Heck RE2 and 3 remakes both changed the story as well.

Man, it's clear you're not a movie fan.

>With the exception of shot-for-shot remakes, most remakes make significant changes in character, plot, genre, and theme.
This has been a thing for decades

It's not a matter of what a remake is, it's a matter of what most people in general expected out of it. You could ask anyone who was expecting this 3 years ago and they wouldn't tell you "oh yeah, I hope since it's a remake, that aeris gets to live and maybe some avalanche members too while at it".

Hell if something, the announcement that the don corneo / crossdressing thing would return in a way signaled that things wouldn't exactly be different.

>it's a matter of what most people in general expected out of it.
Ok, and I'll even agree that they probably should have called it like, FF7 Rebooted or something to lessen confusion. But I'm just saying, remake has never meant "the story is completely unchanged" or whatever. That shit is dumb.

Yes and no. With these kinds of remakes it's expected that major plot points stay the same while minor ones are subject to change. I remember a lot of hand-wringing about whether the Wall Market stuff would return.

It's still a remake, but it's bold to put it on the title (when there's next to no other games out there doing it) considering what they've done, simple as that. Videogames are a fairly different medium than movies when it comes to remakes, as many people expect the remakes to affect gameplay, sound or visuals, -maybe- story to a degree where elements are added rather than replaced. Like adding extra lore or backstory.

It's also dumb that people are considering this like the first remake that's ever been there and calling most games that have been actually remade "remasters".

But that's the thing, they didn't exactly change only minor plot points. For all we know there's enough changes to make the later parts of the series vastly different because fuck destiny.
