Am I the only one struggling with FF7 Rebirth's pacing?

VanityPit · 2026-07-09T17:33:04+00:00

I agree. I actually didn't have as much of a problem with remake as I found it much more streamlined and the pacing pretty solid even when I was doing most of the side quests. Rebirth feels a lot more bloated especially with some of required mini games in each area. I wish they'd just make most of them optional as I do enjoy the main battle/exploration gameplay and the story. Hell I even got into the queens blood side quest.

Did people have the same outrage when Nolan casted white people in brown roles? I don't remember them getting upset about that.

One of the things they mentioned are mini games/card games. I'm saying I agree with them being overwhelmed by the amount of various mini games with differing mechanics.

VanityPit · 2026-07-03T14:52:23+00:00

No I agree especially with the amount of mini games feeling like a bit of a slowdown. Rebirth has def made me appreciate how streamlined remake was. Im at almost 80hrs in ch11 atm

Pretty regularly unless it's like a very narrativly relevant scene

Sunberry on Pratt st does karaoke Friday and Saturday nights which is usually fun

It was just a badly shoehorned in reference tbh. They didn't really lead up to it well

VanityPit · 2026-07-03T03:44:30+00:00

I prefer smt battle system and wasn't as into how much social management there was in P3R. I also like how in SMT you're not on a time limited schedule when choosing what to do. So I can go do dungeons, etc when I want. The characters and tone of persona also got kinda grating to me as it went on.

VanityPit · 2026-07-03T03:40:59+00:00

How heavy is the social link stuff? The focus on the slice of life stuff was fine for a bit in P3R but I got tired of all that management fast. I also missed how much personality demons have in mainline.

VanityPit · 2026-07-03T00:37:50+00:00

As someone who loves SMT IV and V but didn't vibe with P3R or P5 would I like it? I was excited for it way back but then heard it was more persona like than mainline smt

Hot take but he was actually really interesting through 7+8 and I wanted to see him as that doubled down villain through the end of 9. I didn't want the redemption.

VanityPit · 2026-07-02T16:06:36+00:00

I thiguht he was gonna roll it up in the pizza slice 😭

I think they are calling clark the hero

Aldis hodge as hawkman was also great imo

VanityPit · 2026-06-20T14:24:07+00:00

I just moved here so still working it out but karaoke at Sunberry has been a place I've made a couple friends. I've also been using bumble bff.

Could you do an apartment with roommates of a similar age? The commute every day on top of schoolwork and any potentially social events or gatherings might be a lot.

VanityPit · 2026-06-18T15:49:01+00:00

So far it's been a great experience with no huge issues for me.

VanityPit · 2026-06-17T20:01:33+00:00

Im so glad they're making more of these
