SE should release the FFVII PS4 port this week on PSN. My hype is on an all time high.

 

[AXE]

I'm fine with this, but S-E better deliver before I die of old age.

 

[benzy]

With Nomura at the helm, I have full faith we'll be getting good facial models with an outsource dev.

 

[Reveirg]

OH. When Nomura's name appeared on screen I cheered so loud. lol

That was the biggest cheer of my friends at my place haha.

Really happy he's back.

 

[Obliterator]

Do we know if this is turn based or have they changed the battle system?

 

[Nephtis]

ROTFL WHAT

 

[DNAbro]

I think one should expect KH3 at D23 Expo in November, not before, is my gut feeling.

So AAA content pipeline from SE Japan seems to be as follows:

- FFXV 2016
- KH3 2017
- FFVII 2018 (production just started as per SE press release)

I'm excited for FFVII, even much more than FFXV if that's hard to believe, nostalgia is a powerful tool.

Kagari, you think SE might be planning a release pipeline surrounding FFVII that year as they have previously (FFVII: Advent Children, Compilation, Crisis Core), or too early to tell?

I'm pretty sure Square will have a KH block tomorrow showing off KH mobile game, KH HD collection, and KH3.

 

[fedexpeon]

oh my god

I just realized, since my FF7 dream has come through, it's time to move to my next dream:

Xenogears remake.

Now that is a crazier dream than FF7 RM.

 

[RPGCrazied]

Do we know if this is turn based or have they changed the battle system?

No. All we got was that CG trailer.

 

[plutoknight]

Do we know if this is turn based or have they changed the battle system?

We know nothing about this except that it exists.

I'm pretty sure Square will have a KH block tomorrow showing off KH mobile game, KH HD collection, and KH3.

KH3 would've probably been shown at Sony's conference. I think D23 is the next KH3 reveal.

I DO think KHDD HD or a 1.5/2.5 compilation (or separate!) relase for PS4 is announced tomorrow.

Guys...

I'm 30 years old, have been playing games since Frogger on my Apple IIe

I've never played FF7.

I'm cautiously excited to play FF7 remake.
It will be my first Final Fantasy game.

I know the girl/love interest dies? That's literally all I know.

 

[SpaceDrake]

During the trailer I was like
"no, don't even think it is FFVII, you know it isn't real. You know it's not Fin----- HOLY SHIT"

I'll be honest, for a minute I thought they were going to do a sequel of some sort and was like whaaaa

and then the words came up and it was like, welp, let's ride this train

 

[bananafactory]

I would bet good money we don't see anything else from this until AT LEAST next E3 or later.

Better get ready for the long haul folks.

 

[sensui-tomo]

Now that is a crazier dream than FF7 RM.

at the very least we can get to hear cloud say ZENOGAIS unless they take that out.

 

[Steel]

With Nomura at the helm, I have full faith we'll be getting good facial models with an outsource dev.

Well, fortunately there's already a ton of media with hd quality cloud.

 

[Raitosaito]

Im used to it already after ffxv.

 

[Illucio]

OH. When Nomura's name appeared on screen I cheered so loud. lol

I think we all did. He better not get kicked off the project though, I want him to stay until completion.

 

[AkelisRain]

The combat system must be revamped I know the old school fans will rage but it must be done.

Also luminous engine or going UE4?

They better not touch the battle system. I will be extremely heart broken if it is not Menu based, materia system.

 

[RPGCrazied]

I would bet good money we don't see anything else from this until AT LEAST next E3 or later.

Better get ready for the long haul folks.

Well, the site already says this winter, though could be no video and just be some information.

Just start life over, it's too late.

Spoiler

BUY THE REMAKE

This is truth. Though they said more this winter. They DID give us literally the least they possibly could, for good reason. I can't imagine how much back and forth there will be over the design of this game.

 

[jiggle]

Stella needs to be a new PT member

 

[DangerMouse]

OH. When Nomura's name appeared on screen I cheered so loud. lol

That was great to see

 

[FTF]

Still so amazing this is happening…now just have to hope it makes it out by the 20th anniversary in 2017! Which it should, as that would give SE and the outsourcing team 2 and a half years for holiday 2017.

 

[Ke0]

lmao, amazing.

 

[HeelPower]

OH. When Nomura's name appeared on screen I cheered so loud. lol

This announcement pretty fulfills the versus and FF7Remake dreams at once.

Hopefully it carries through.

 

[chrono01]

They already said we'll get more "this Winter", so I'd guess we'll see more at TGS.

 

[Dark_castle]

Take me to the promised land, Kagari.

Some... Some of the love for this game may be lost on you. It's a fantastic game even by today's standards if you can withstand the turn-based combat. The remake is riding hard on nostalgia right now. I mean, look at all these responses and emotional reactions.

What I'm saying is, you really should start playing the original, or buy the PC version and throw all the HD mods to it... though classic is best.

 

[MagnaderAlpha]

I guess Verendus was right about that spin off FF game. He is a wonder that one.

Yeah, he said you ride summons/creatures, which certainly seems to be the case in World of Final Fantasy. I'm still curious regarding the other one, though. Verendus mentioned the FFVII remake, the FF game where you ride monsters, and one he seemed to hint at being FFXVI.

 

[Slowdive]

I would bet good money we don't see anything else from this until AT LEAST next E3 or later.

Better get ready for the long haul folks.

We'll probably get something at TGS/PSX

 

[Galactic Barret]

Request: Expand the Gold Saucer date scene with Barret.

I will shamefully admit, of all the times I've played FFVII, I've never got a date with Yuffie, Barret or RedXIII. Should try for my current playthrough.

 

[KOMANI]

I'll be honest, for a minute I thought they were going to do a sequel of some sort and was like whaaaa

and then the words came up and it was like, welp, let's ride this train

Yeah me too! I would have liked a sequal, also.

 

[Perfect Cha0s]

OH. When Nomura's name appeared on screen I cheered so loud. lol

Same. It does paint a weird picture as far as Square Enix management goes, though. Pulling Nomura from his dream project, and then handing him the company's most requested title? Idk, seems odd.

 

[Kagari]

This announcement pretty fulfills the versus and FF7Remake dreams at once.

Hopefully it carries through.

The trailer gives me a lot of Versus vibes ;-;

 

[bigbaldwolf86]

Ok I've just woken up what did I miss?

Wait

...

What?

IHEXHAKSLHAHDBRBHSG

It's happening!!!!!

Sony wins everything!

 

[BocoDragon]

I feel this is basically FFXVI. Id be surprised if there were another big FF for current gen, aside from
FFXV-2.

 

[jetjevons]

In FF7 remake you're going to be able to save Aerith aren't you?

 

[kayos90]

The trailer gives me a lot of Versus vibes ;-;

This announcement gives me a lot of Versus vibes.

 

[Sgt. Garlic]

This is very exciting! I can't believe at all these announcements lol. This has been one hell of an e3 so far.

 

[Hours Left]

I will shamefully admit, of all the times I've played FFVII, I've never got a date with Yuffie, Barret or RedXIII. Should try for my current playthrough.

They should throw Cait Sith in there too.

 

[Reveirg]

They took care if all our crazy wishes in ONE single conference.

I wonder what crazy dreams we'll have next.

 

[Turin]

Perfection.

 

[RPGCrazied]

Also, dat voice narrating. Who is it? It was so good.

 

[bananafactory]

We'll probably get something at TGS/PSX

I don't believe their lies.

 

[Galactic Barret]

Yeah me too! I would have liked a sequal, also.

DoC was the sequel. And it was pretty bad.

 

[Mr. RHC]

OH. When Nomura's name appeared on screen I cheered so loud. lol

My reaction was like this:

I know...

Might want to spoiler tag that last part, I haven't played any other Final Fantasy but ffxiii/2 so.... :/

 

[Japanmanx3]

The dream came true tonight. The trifecta of games never supposed to happen are here. Life is complete!!!! I have seen things tonight man...

 

[Nosgotham]

Oh, I'd buy the hell out of a Blood Omen remake.

thats my most wanted remake ever. those loading gimes are just too much for me nowadays. one of the best games tho imo
