Julien Merceron, the company's technology director, has said to FINAL FANTASY DREAM that : " Luminous Engine will be used for a large range of games as Kingdom Hearts III and next Thi4f, but we still have a lot of work to do".
He said about the Agni's Philosophy Tech Demo : "We really wanted it to be our own view. We are not trying to sell Sony or Microsoft's view, and by the way, we are not aware of it. When we published this video, we wanted it to be a message from Square Enix, more than a message from Sony or Microsoft."
Finally about FF VII he said : "Final Fantasy VII was one of my most beautiful experiences. That said, the other titles of the series are also wonderful. Obviously, as a player, I would really like a remake for FFVII. I give my opinion concerning the technology used and I let them take their decisions. But as a player, as a fan, yes, I would like a remake."
The tiny green slasher villain returns in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, and is as frightening as ever.
The way it was handled was so dumb. One shots in melee...your teammates are to ostupid to get away from its attack. So you most often end up alone in a certain fight.
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.
Love single player RPGs? Here at HardcoreDroid we've complied a list of the top ten offline Android RPGs as of 2020.
if true that would be a beast of a game but wouldn't that be a next gen game? if it is then that would suck but make sense since next gen is almost upon us. Still day one purchase for me
Nice, Julien Merceron is a good French. He gives his point of view, and when they created GLACIER2 for Hitman, it was a great moment for the industry. With Luminous they have the power to create a game powerfull as Advent Children Complete.
FF VII Remake ? I'm ok for that !
Just bring it out already and stop the KH side stories.
I just hope that we are not wainting for all of that for years and years and finally for nothing !
Yes, A french interview ! :)
Julien Merceron is the sexiest guy I never saw ! :)
