A few comments from Nomura on FFVII:R

Kagari, any word when they'll unveil the designs of the other characters?

Still concerned how my favorite FF heroine is going to turn out, but I'm reasonably confident Team Nomura will do right.

The next update is planned for this winter.

Great comments.

So excited for this game! What a surprise that they had started development before PC port was announced.

Cant wait for Winter 2015 to know more details.
 
All I care about is the Wall Market segment in HD. Keep it in especially the Honey Bee Inn.

While we're at it, they also need to keep the date with Barret.
 
idk they said the same thing about World of FF but I had an interview with those guys today and they said PS4/Vita only.

Pretty sure he said exclusively for PS4/Vita on stage yesterday. I remember him fumbling the line a bit and having to repeat it. I may be wrong.

Where is eurogamer getting the new darker aesthetic? The only thing we see in trailer is Midgar which was always dark.
 
I wonder what kind of DLC they'll make for it... barf

[Spoiler!]

Aeris Revival DLC 5.99

Fast Gold Chocobo DLC 5.99

Don Corneo Visual Novel DLC 9.99

Tifa Bikini DLC 99.99
 
2-3 months exclusivity would be a deathblow to its sales on other platforms. 95% of the people who want the game are going to snap this bastard up ASAP.

Yeah I do think 90% of the audience for this game will probably have a PS4 by the time it launches. I'm guessing maybe PC just to have it on Steam and selling here and there for years to come.

I realize that FF/FFVII has a broader appeal, but it feels like Square Enix is the only company that's really trying to pump juice into the Japanese console market with moves like this. I fear it's lost at this point, but I really respect them for that.

Its AI system was interesting on paper, but my god were actual battles boring as shit. Program your characters well enough and you don't have to lift a finger outside of some boss battles. It made exploration a complete slog.

Pffft, it made exploration even more enjoyable.
 
Any word on voice acting? Hope they don't waste time on VO, if anything just do the cutscenes.

This is a remake. It's totally getting VO, no way it doesn't, it's a big modern game, VA is a huge thing, and they've basically done a lot of the casting over the years.
 
video card is cheaper already had a ps4 didnt like it. already waited 9 years for this remake i will live haha.

Fair point, the PC version is probably the one to get since it will probably be modded to hell. Can't wait to Omnislash Sephiroth as Cloud in drag.

Better yet, why even buy a Xbox console when most Japanese games will come onto Playstation platforms?

Another valid point, I don't see Star Ocean 5 on the PC.

Of all the contents in the game
Some ppl just seemed completely fixated on something so trivial though

I agree. There's a TON of content in FFVII whose transition to the remake I'm very curious about. A throwaway scene in a bathhouse isn't one of them.
 
I still think its comes out on xbox one. If it were exclusive to Sony they would have made it clear it was at least a console exclusive. They choose their words very carefully for these announcements, and first on consoles does not equal console exclusive. I don't know what all Kagari knows, but for all we know Square Enix could be negotiating an xbox release still. I expect it to be exclusive for 6 months to a year and then come out on xbox and PC with little marketing. It will move ps4s big time and the general public will assume its ps4 only which is all Sony cares about anyways.

Sorry to keep bugging you Kagari, I'm scrounging for any morsel of info I can find.

Any word on whether they'll consider adding in some of the unused content of the original game? Such as Indigo and Cobalt?

Normally I'd agree but if she is right about Sony funding it, that pretty much kills an XB1 version dead in its tracks.
