Final Fantasy VII Remake (part 1?) is on two Blu-Rays
- Thread starter D.Final
- Start date
- E3 - Square Enix
Wait till you see how slow the game runs with not only using BluRay but two BluRay discs i.e. twice as slow.
(fyi, my tribute to one of the best threads on the interwebs)

2 discs just for Chapter 1? I'm confused

- New tactical mode in (optional)
- Enemies have a focus gauge; if filled, you can stagger your attacks for bonus damage
- Filling ATB allows you to use Tactical Mode, game slows down and allows you to plan to use abilities
- Item usage is limited
- FFVII Remake will be split into 2 Blu-Ray discs worth of content with Part 1 consisting entirely of Midgar
- Stagger mechanic from Final Fantasy XIII is in
- FFVII Remake will expand on the story of Midgar

I really don't think part 1 is just Midgar. He said Midgar is so big it could be it's own game, but not that it would be the only playable thing on the first disc.
Though it annoys me they didn't clarify the situation, just said some vague stuff you have to make assumptions about.

Expanding midgar to a single game is stupid ok lets see if they fuck up the pacing more than the move to 3d already would have..
I'm a little confused if it's only two games and game one is Midgar. Midgar is 4-5 hours long. Even if they greatly expand everything to fill a game it will be hard to fit the rest of the game into one more game. There's a lot of stuff that happens after Midgar.

Agreed. We need clarification on this.

Seems like Part I is 2 disks, with the first disk being in Midgar only.

Cactuar doesn’t arrive until late into the game. Possibly even the halfway point.

Ah man, the nostalgia of multi-disc PSX FFs.
I wonder what they're going to call part 1. Episode I? Chapter I?

He said Midgar is one disc alone. So the first part is more than Midgar? Hopefully this gets clarified lol

And I'm not completely sure on this, btw. It's been confusing.

This is completely confusing. If it were two parts, why is that not indicated on the box art?
From the press release.
"The first game in this project will be set in the eclectic city of Midgar and presents a fully standalone gaming experience that provides a great starting point to the series."
Also it states " First on PS4" so that means itll be timed exclusive probably

"FF7 Midgar" seems appropriate.

RDR 2 was that. Maybe Midgar will be huge at least and the graphics insane.

Wait what. So Midgar across 2 blu-rays?

Stretching a 5 hour gameplay segment into an entire blu-ray worth of content?
You're gonna fuck this up aren't you Square?

They made a great middle term between ATB and real time. Really good idea to make it a kind of RTWP, like a more action focused FFXII!
It seems whatever at first, since you can put magic and abilities in the shortcut menu, but I imagine it will be very handy when you have lots of moves avaiable. And it is cool to see everything in slow motion also!

Well. i think Midgar is one of the harderst parts to adapt, and one of the most that needed more love, imo.
But i have to wonder how many parts in total will this remake have lol

LOL this game is so confusing, it's like they're adapting their usual game stories into their marketing strategy.

It's just Midgar from what I've been told.

People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.
Got a feeling this will be 3 parts. Part 1 - Midgar, Part 2 till Aerith's death, Part 3 the rest.
Also if you notice, the original Midgar was just 5 hours and focused on the slums and the HQ.
This game will probably allow you to explore all sectors and reactors.

I am not worried about combat anymore i basically like everything i have seen lol
I wonder if they switched around story stuff and integrated later parts into midgar god i hope not, its probably just that they didnt want to start the "open world" segment on "last gen" hardware.
