Loved this review! I'm saving money to buy a ps5 and a new TV (I have an old one who hardly runs 1080p) so I can play this game. Final Fantasy VII means a lot to me, and I remember fondly the day this remake was announced. This is a dream come true for many of us. Long live to Final Fantasy series! Update: I finally got the tv, ps5, and game 😭🩷

You legit owe it to yourself to get a nice enough TV that takes advantage of it. I had a 4K TV from 2016 that did HDR and was nice for the time, but the PS5 didn't look "next gen" until I got a TV that could drive it. Please do your research and get what's best for you, or you will have buyer's remorse. If you can spring for it, get a decent audio setup too. Not to sound like a commercial, but 3d audio really does put you in the action. At least get the ps5 headphones if you can't afford a whole setup. Hearing stuff behind and above you really is another level of immersion.

This attitude is contributing to the decline of the video gaming industry. Accounting for inflation games are far cheaper today than they were 30 years ago, cost far more and take way longer to make. It’s frustrating to hear so many complain about frame rates and graphics upgrades when they’re not willing to pay the bare minimum for the product.

I agree when you spoke about games being constantly serious or overly goofy. Whilst FF7 still keeps that charm of having both, I thought they a amazing Job in this remake, I've spent just over 100 hours playing, I was never once bored. The post game content is really challenging aswell. I think so many open world games can learn from this example, Assassin's Creed come to mind as Boring open world where it loops millions of the same questtype all over the map. I remember actually falling asleep multiple times whilst playing AC.

The walking indoors isn't that big of a deal because interiors are smaller than old 2D RPGs. It would actually be harder to navigate if you were zipping around. And I would bet wanting to finish the game ASAP to get the review out is probably a factor in your impatience as with most reviewers.

Well there you have it folks, David who is not much of a modern action gamer to begin with (my self included) who has probably played every classic jrpg under the sun, has given it the GOTY tag. if that doesn't convince you, I don't know what will.

@makasete30 5 ай бұрын

Doesn’t this game blend action and turn based menu selection of abilities, though? It’s more of a hybrid, I thought, rather than pure action like FF16.

@Artimes. 5 ай бұрын

I am just saying that David has a history with this genre of video games that most people don't. He started playing games from the era of Dragon Quest on the NES. He's seen the evolution of jrpgs throughout including all the pitfalls and compromises taken with modern contemporary design. He's seen alot of open world games become to sand boxy and not placing enough emphasis on actual story itself like the early classic did. So, all that being said, for him to give this a GOTY really speaks volumes not just as a FF fan, but as an experienced jrpg gamer who knows the ins and outs of the genre. Granted I will judge myself for sure when I play it, but for someone like David to praise a modern open world game? Lol shit... something must have been done right.
