I never even heard much about FF 7 remake. Is it any good?
My personal game of the generation. So since I am huge fanboy better dont listen to me .
But yeah, for me it hit all the right spots. Great characters, best OST ever, mostly great graphics, good story (yeah I like the ending, sue me). I mean just search my post history where I gush all over this game. Other people have different opinions of course, but I think its safe to say, that this was a very competent game in pretty much all areas.
Which is why I am looking forward to seeing more about 16. I mean lets face it, the trailer looks how it looks because they wanted to push development forward since they lost several month due to covid. So instead of going the good ol "trailer representative of finished product. No actual gameplay" approach they simply showed some still in development footage. Of course now the same people who complain about the mentioned trailers are saying how they are "concerned" because they have never seen a game (other than specially polished vertical slices) during development. Yes the lighting is not final, lip sync isnt implemented yet and animations are work in progress. Thats how games look when they are at least a year from completion.
I think SE has done a lot of restructuring and have improved a lot in their pipeline and corporate culture. Doesnt mean FF 16 is going to be great, but why would anyone go around shitting on something that did not have the chance to prove itself yet. Its simply not the kind of mindset I want to have.
