After a lot of research into Unity, Source, Unreal and CryEngine as possible game engines for FF7 Remake, I’ve decided to stick with CryEngine 3. It offers the best graphics performance and can easily handle the vast landscape of Midgar in realtime.
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 VII Rebirth publisher Square Enix has declared a $140m loss based on a shakeup of its internal development pipeline.
What are they doing over there? Sounds like they canceled something big. I read a rumor a while back about ff9 remake . Here "Final Fantasy IX has gone through a very challenging development, the game is still in progress but may undergo changes drastic enough that we won't hear about it for a couple of years."
This could be one of the reasons if the rumor is true. That was Silknight i don't know how credible he is but it's something and it would make sense.
The industry implosion is continuing. Sky high budgets, prolonged development windows, stagnant sales numbers, and falling currency values (inflation) are wreaking havoc on the legacy industry. AAA games will slowly become the rarity.
Saad from eXputer: "After suffering from massive financial hits, Square Enix & Bandai Namco appear to be turning over a new leaf but I'm still unconvinced."
I was talking about games with some Japanese guys here in Japan, and it seems like around here Bandai Namco has a fame of making low-quality games, with the occasional gem.
About Square Enix, I believe they lack the capacity to improve. They should learn with Capcom (although even Capcom still makes some bad mistakes), but I don't think they ever will. They keep chasing whatever is new at the time (blockchain, AI...) to say "we innovate", without considering the public perception and if these things actually improve the games or not. Them releasing too many small games with no advertising also shows a lack of trust in its own products. Even with their biggest games, like turning FF into an action game with XVI and the very divisive plot changes regarding whispers and timelines in VII Remake, shows them trying to attract a new generation of gamers without understanding what made the series so big in the first place.
I don’t know why NOW they decide on this, but I guess later is better than never.
Final Fantasy VII CryEngine 3 tech demo coming soon hopefully.
Pretty curious how it plays out.
A Final Fantasy VI tech demo would be even more interesting to see imo with the mecha suits marching in the snow blizzard toward to the first town in the game.

Cryengine 3 would be nice for FF7.
I have lots of respect for the cryteck cry engine for its advance graphical output in making games detail like our world itself and I have faith it would make the FF7 remake look stunning on the PS3 or PS4 console. Whatever playstation version I will pick this game up because it can never get old for all eternity. This game will be fresh for now and forever.
Like the story of romeo and juliet, this Playstation 1 classic will be remembered for the rest of mankinds history on earth.
I hope this guy succeeds. It's not the first time capable fans have attempted something like this? Remember the Chrono Trigger remake? It was coming along well and then SquareEnix shut them down.
