If they don't release all parts of FFVII on Ps4, it will be the most scummy thing S-E has ever done.
I will only buy FFVII R when is complete... But damnnnn if they make next gen only....
So in when all the parts are released you're going to play it on your 13 year old system? Cool.
But for real. How is that scummy? Sometimes I just dont get people. So Halo, Uncharted, Gears, God of War and so many other franchises are scummy too?
Guess what, game development takes a lot of time these days and recreating something of that size that late into a console cycle will lead to it being released on other platforms. Why would they restrict themselves to develop it for PS4 in the year 202x when the last past is coming out? Makes no sense.
People have to live with the fact that remakes exist. They have existed in any other medium for thousands of years now (even written or oral stories that have been "remade" over time). Because a good idea is worth redoing. A good song can be covered or done in a different style. Plays and musicals and operas have been getting remade for hundreds of years now. Same with movies. Games are at an age were the milestones in their history will be revisited. Sometimes by the same people, sometimes by new people. Thats not the same as laziness. FF7r part 1 is a full game with a lot of content and high production values and stands on its own. If people think that turning a few sentences from a side character from 23 years ago into a 3h long chapter is lazy than fine. I think they are wrong.
Even if the remake was shit, it still wouldnt be scummy. It would just be a shit game, that gets continued in new console generation.
So much entitlement.
edit: So why is it not possible to fix that? I'm no tech guy.
