CTgamers: "You’ve seen the old pics, “I’ve never learned so much from people who never existed” Well for me personally, I can say that this is true. I’ve been through many difficult periods in my life. Incorporating aspects of how these strong characters deal with the cards they were dealt and how they handle their situation in life provided me a lot of courage when I need it most. Sure they are not real, we all know that, but that doesn’t mean you can’t feel for them and emulate the good parts of what makes these characters great."
Gary Green said: We’re finding ourselves in a similar position with the Pixel Remaster edition of Final Fantasy IV as we were with Final Fantasy III since, once again, we’ve received a slightly upscaled, more vibrant port of the original game when there’s already an expanded 3D remake available. As such, we’re playing a game which, even after its long-awaited release, still lives very much in the shadow of its remake.
If only they didn't screw ps4 owners over with a physical release. I'd have ran through this in a heartbeat.
The first one I played, it was the one that made me fall in love with JRPGs and is still my favorite to this day. A masterpiece
Final Fantasy 7 has come back under the spotlight thanks to the release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, but is it worth replaying the original?
Got to Zacks part in 7 Rebirth. Said f it. Finishing my game in 7 og. Just got to part 2 yesterday. I also got Crisis Core... So it'll be a while before I'm back to Rebirth. I just keep thinking about it too smh, want to get back to playing it. Not till I know Zacks story though. I beat 7 og sooooooo long ago, it's crazy going through it again and remembering things.
Got to Zacks part in Rebirth?
You mean you started the game and turned it off?
The game starts with Zack...
... Really 🤓 lol. His second part, I've played for 80hrs lmao. <---- PS5 Run time, probably not all game time. You guys know how it goes.
Did you not ever play the OG FF7? After you recruit Vincent, later in the game, disc 3, return to that basement and look at the pod, there's a whole Zack story that'll trigger as a memory.... it's well hidden in the game and a lot of things regarding Zack are cleared up. FF7 Crisis Core is basically an extend feature of that hidden flashback... It took me years to discover it back then lol

80 hours in Rebirth by doing everything, and you should've reached Zacks story about 5 times 🤣
Ye I kno that's y I said not all gameplay time. But also I am very anal when it comes to exploring.
Not to mention fighting Titan at his full strength. Hours spent trying still haven't succeeded. Found all 3 ruins but I'ma masochist when it comes to games.
Very much so. Graphically it's dated but the story and the gameplay haven't aged a day. It's still one of my all time favourite RPGs and for me is better than Remake in some ways.
It always takes me back to Christmas 1997, I got it as a gift and I was blown away when I played it. I couldn't believe games could look that good. The combination of pre rendered backgrounds and FMV really made it stand out. It definitely still has a certain charm that modern games can't replicate.
I can't imagine people will still be talking about Remake and Rebirth in 27 years.
Fully agreed. To me the atmosphere, pacing, gameplay and music are all better than in the remake.
Remake is so amazing, pure FFVII Love, play it on PS5 please! aww the graphics the battles, the music... a dream come true.

I really hate how Cloud's characterization has been extremely flanderized across various media. It really goes against much the development he went through in FFVII.
In the original game, Cloud was only angsty and showed insecurities on occasion during appropriate situations, and was perfectly fine by the end of the game. In all other appearances, he's constantly a brooding loner.

I honestly don't get the whole hype around Cloud in gaming in general. A lot of people swear Final Fantasy 7 as "the pinnacle" of gaming - why? Because it's the first with CG cut scenes? The first FF game on PlayStation? Because Sephiroth is an emo kid with mommy issues? I seriously don't get it.
And before people start arguing "You didn't play 7" I played it when it first released back in 97, obtained Gold Chocobo, completed Battle Saucer for W Summon, Omnislash, and also beat Emerald weapon without Underwater materia.
If I had to pick my favorite FF games it would be 6 and 8. At the time 7 did bring a lot to the table, but I wouldn't claim as the "end all" of FF games.
