People think this is coming out in Fall 2017 lol. Pray to the Cetra, and MAYBE we'll get it by Christmas.
He's most likely referring to the Japanese voice acting but since this game will no doubt get a simultaneous worldwide release it's plausible English voice acting is happening now. Steve Burton (the voice of Cloud) said he was doing some voice recording last year and he doesn't do any other voice acting besides Cloud so was probably referring to FFVIIR.
Midgar is actually a substantial part of the game. You meet over half the cast there and major plot points are revealed to you. SE also said this is going to give them a chance to expand on certain things. I have no doubt Midgar is going to be dense and filled with content.
can't imagine cloud voice lol
Midgar will certainly be expanded, but even doubling the size would only get you 16 hours or so. Midgar isn't as big a part of the game as some remember despite its plot importance. Not to mention that leaving Midgar and walking out into the great wide world was an important part, and it would suck to split that up. The end of the first Junon segment would be better - it's the end of the first continent, the last boss would be Jenova, and the characters are literally sailing into the sunset.
Ugh why do I have the feeling this was misinterpreted and got lost in translation? I have zero hopes this game will come out in 2017. KH3 I have hope but not FFVIIR. I feel any second now we'll get a tweet clarifying shit like "they only meant finished recording the voice work for the opening area shown in the previous trailer" or some shit.
You can beat FF XV in something like 20 hours if you focus 100% on the storyMidgar will certainly be expanded, but even doubling the size would only get you 16 hours or so.

Fans may have the image of the Cloud from Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children, but since this is the prime Cloud from before Advent Children, the performance may feel fresh.
Wait, you actually think KH3 has a shot of being released this year?
November 2017 hype!
its gonna be spring next year right?
Yep. Like with animated movies, voice recordings sometimes are finished years before the release.Nomura already came out and said that this game and kh3 are a long ways off (meaning not this year).
Any guesses/rumours on the cast?
Voice acting is something that tends to happen late in development, right?
I think he was somehow totally confusing it with something else when he said that. The Japanese script of KH3 wasn't even finished being written until late 2014 at the earliest (Nomura said they were still writing it in October 2014).It depends on what type of game it is.
For a Square Enix related example, that Goofy voice actor from KH3 finished all his voice recording in early 2015, and the game is nowhere to be seen.
Isn't VO work usually done when most of the game is complete?

2nd half of 2018 earliest would be my guess
this year is kh3's year :3
Wedge is the worst VA I have heard in a AAA game, trailer or otherwise.YoU're doinG tHIS for thE PlaNet...sAme as Us...
Not interested.
So how about the voice recording for everything but the main story? Kitase didn't talk about that.Kitase said:The voice actors have almost finished voice recording of the main story.
Part 1 is just going to be Midgar, isn't it?
:-(
You can beat FF XV in something like 20 hours if you focus 100% on the story
So I can see the first part of FF VIIR having 15 hours (specially if is more than 3 parts)
And the fact that leaving Midgar they would have to create some part of the World Map (make the graphics, enemy encounters, decide how the map gonna be, etc) is what makes me think that they will end on Midgar
”A remake of Final Fantasy VII required substantial preparedness," Kitase told Dengeki PlayStation. ”The voice actors have almost finished voice recording of the main story. Fans may have the image of the Cloud from Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children, but since this is the ‘prime' Cloud from before Advent Children, the performance may feel fresh."
I don't think this really means anything. Remember when Goofy's VA said KH 3 is coming out in 2015 because he already finished his voice recordings for the game?
