It’s not like Knights of the Round is even going to be in this game. I don’t remember, is Bahamut even available in the Midgar section of the game?

Chocobo Chick looks like Sora if he visited a world of Chocobos in KH.

The high level summons are much later in the game. Bahamut (assuming you're talking about Bahamut Zero) and Knights of the Round will probably be in the last chapter.

Cactuar! Oh god I remember trying so many times to encounter him on the world map and then not have it run away! Those childhood memories.
Also, love the remix theyve done of the original bsttle music. This game is love.

They are in the game. They are preorder bonuses.

Oh. That's okay then. Perfectly acceptable.

Oh, so I can get Carbuncle and Cactuar without having to purchase digital deluxe or some other special edition??

"little longer" probably means 10-15 years.

DLC summons. For Part 1 of a 3-part episodic remake.
Surely these will carry from game to game.
Right?

Man, I've been doing the waiting game a lot in this life. I've waited for Kingdom Hearts 3, The Last Guardian, Pokemon Adventures Tri to get a final season, Hunter x Hunter to release at least 10 chapters per year, Berserk to end, Bastard to get something, D. Gray Man, waiting things to arrive in a 3rd world country hahaha. Life is just a giant waiting game that you progress slow and steady, so there is nothing I can't wait for.

I’ve already pre-ordered, but would like to just tell them something...
FUCK OFF.
Giving shit away that should be in the base game is utterly disgusting and it’s one of the worst sins. STOP.

They did this with FF14's expansion ShadowBringers (Aetheryte earrings) to boost their financial result.
It's disgusting as fuck because it's also discrimination, people might call it a incentive but it's BS towards people that purchase it layer.
That aside I'd pre-order already regardless, but I'm waiting on next-gen console specs as I'd like to play it on the most powerful console.
Here's hoping the bonus is the same.

Not really a fan of this practice, I'm skipping launch of this game so I guess I don't get to have these summons.
Sometimes pre-order bonuses are cool, like for Doom Eternal I believe I'm getting one of those little lunchbox tins made for the game, it's an EB preorder bonus, plus there's some superfluous in game items but whatever. But I mean, summons in FF7? I bought your game now let me play it.

It's not nothing when your game is one of the most hyped in the last 20 years...
And there is always a risk of other devs and publishers copying this shit for their remakes.
Capcom already did this with re2 remake and the original ost not included in the game...

Great to know that Carbuncle has a 5 head

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
They will not be unlockable during normal gameplay. You'll need to either pre-order or buy the DLC codes from someone who did.

What will take longer. The dlc to actually release or the fmv to summon these summons?

Annoying that they see a need for this crap but hopefully it'll be released for everyone later. I can't believe how bad they look (except cactar who continues to be cactar).

Not even out yet.
"Buy our extra stuff on top".
Just tainted it for me.
I wonder what the hell they will do with Gold Saucer or Mount Condor......
Just you fucking wait.
DO NOT SUPPORT THIS SHIT or It will only get worse.

See I'm in two minds about this.
On one side from a business/logistics perspective I can totally see how EXTRA resources could be given/created to generate EXTRA revenue. (Few business commit everything they have to one product/venture). Aditional revenue streams allow for more money to be invested in the first place than what would have been allocated. That's if the company has integrity of course and isn't just literally carving out a piece of the game that otherwise would have been included. It needs to be content that would never have existed for it to be fair to the consumer.
On the other hand something as important as summons that were in the original game should not be behind a paywall.

None of these summons were in the original game.

Ah well fair enough in that case, my bad. Must have got confused with other final fantasy titles. That does make it better in my eyes.

They are about to be summoning every dollar for my wallet. I need this game in my life.

Fuckers know they got my money anyway so they are breaking the game up in parts and using something as key as red materia to increase pre-orders.

In the original game, no summon materia is available until after leaving Midgar. Choco/Mog is the first at the Chocobo Ranch followed by Shiva at Junon etc. etc.

I just hope that those Cactuar and Carbuncle pre-order DLCs get released on PSN separately.
Upgrading my pre-order to the Deluxe version would cost me about $40. These are cool, but even I have my limits.

No, just no. DLCs for a game that should be complete and was already parted into at least 2 games (or 3), no way. Really really bad move SquareEnix.
Can't wait till you got to Golden Saucer in part 2 or 3 and have to pay real money for the attractions.
I really have nothing against DLCs, but FF 7 is a game about exploring and getting the last secret out of the game. If there are extra summons, they should be in the game and be available by doing some "secret" quest that is not directly presented to the player or something like that.

Imagine they include a Final Fantasy 7 cabinet in the Golden Saucer! The whole PS1 game fully playable. If you play to the end, you know the big twist and so when the time comes you can change fate and unlock an alternative ending in the real game!... I've maybe thought about this too much
