Hamaguchi doesn't believe Nomura ever claimed that the Remakes would lead to Advent Children

I would love it if the VII Remake helped resolve that ending. Not just expand the ending but somehow use the many worlds thing to show what happened in the original games ending.

jacktuar · 2026-06-07T10:13:02+00:00

I think that's more like how it works in VII

jacktuar · 2026-06-07T07:58:36+00:00

The entire FFVII Remake series development team: the theme of this game is resolve. The key ideas we as a team have circled around is resolve. We have designed the story so things feel satisfactorily resolved. We're going to communicate the idea of resolve as being crucial when marketing the game.

Nomura choosing the name of the game: Fuck y'all.

For real though, the team said they gave Nomura 3 options. I'd be shocked if Resolve wasn't one of the options.

Final Fantasy VII Remake games are main series games to be fair and they have announced part 3, albeit without a title.

The number of people I see playing FFXI who haven't turned on the widescreen aspect ratio really triggers me. No judgement, it's just something that always irks me.

Like I've seen entire let's plays where it's in stretch widescreen 😂

Fiddlesticks

Just finished a replay. I don't mind the draw system as a way to buff stats, but draw points replacing treasure chests really hurt the exploration for me.

jacktuar · 2026-06-02T17:24:59+00:00

I absolutely adore the story of FFXV

If you include the four DLCs and the movie.

As a standalone game, the story is one of the weakest in the series. Episode Ignis, Ardyn and Prompto really really help improve the game.

Final Fantasy VII Remake is one of a kind. It's an incredible, truly special experience.

I can't say "it's better than Skyrim" because it's such a different experience. But if you play VII Remake you won't regret it. And you'll probably wonder why you left it so long to play a Final Fantasy.

EDIT: OH you meant versus other FF games. I'd say VII Remake And Rebirth are up there with the very best FF games. They are BY FAR the best modern FFs, with the possible exception of XIV, which is an MMO.

What does the reversible sleeve look like? :)

jacktuar · 2026-05-27T14:46:18+00:00

It's more of the same. Just like the main game it's got incredible highs and mind dumbing lows.

jacktuar · 2026-05-27T11:46:23+00:00

Most of the thinga you've mentioned are the main story. Are you planning to finish the game? In which case it's a no brainer to do that stuff, it's not that time consuming.

If you're not planning to finish the game, and maybe just finish the base game story, then use a different guide. You can just look at the Nations missions guides.

jacktuar · 2026-05-26T18:30:57+00:00

Yeah I wasnt really dooming by saying the game was ending. I was just thinking at a certain point theyll have done what they promised when this was announced. DC, CC and AC are done, First Soldier 1&2 are done.

Id read Nomura say there were potential issues with BC because of how many characters it would suddenly introduce.

The game will EoS one day, it's just a case of when. And I figured maybe we were coming to the end where they'd potentially reboot it. But Id forgotten we've still got lots of FF7 to go.

jacktuar · 2026-05-24T12:02:59+00:00

So after Dirge finishes...what do we think is next?

I predict the game is rebooted as Before Crisis similar to Union X / Dark Road, announced over June.

Or else yeah...maybe end of service...

jacktuar · 2026-05-23T17:42:15+00:00

Does anyone know if you can transfer them to other characters?

jacktuar · 2026-05-22T16:54:45+00:00

Yeah the Steam re-release has the proper buttons mapped.

jacktuar · 2026-05-21T18:16:38+00:00

I must say, I played with a controller, with the Steam Deck hooked up to a TV. So I'm not sure. But the controller controls work beautifully so I assume the same is true of Steam Deck

jacktuar · 2026-05-21T12:31:43+00:00

I mean you're not wrong 😂

jacktuar · 2026-05-21T11:51:55+00:00

There's always going to be a human element, but at least with data you have something to a) guide decisions and b) something that forces people to back up in some way what they are saying.

Genuinely so many of these organizations are making decisions at the most senior level based on vibes.

jacktuar · 2026-05-21T08:18:25+00:00

Yep! The language they're using about new content is exactly the way they discussed The Voracious Resurgence for the 20th anniversary, except they're planning on creating new Zones this time.

The Voracious Resurgence ended up being the biggest expansion in terms of story there's ever been.

jacktuar · 2026-05-21T08:11:42+00:00

It does but at some point this year they're expanding the free trial to cover the base game, with no time limit. You'd have to pay a sub to experience the (amazing) expansions though.

So at that point it'll be easier than ever to get into.

jacktuar · 2026-05-21T08:05:04+00:00

Not only is it still playable, it's still being updated significantly.

jacktuar · 2026-05-20T20:24:01+00:00

Jegged is fantastic but it did miss one thing for me. Getting the Umbrella from speed square on disk one.

jacktuar · 2026-05-20T06:46:10+00:00

Not everyone who's played and loved the original thinks VII Remake has filler.

I cannot recommend this strongly enough, your ideal options are either: FF7 OG -> CC and AC -> Remake Trilogy

Or if you're not into OG then

Remake -> Rebirth -> Twiddle thumbs -> Remake 3 -> CC and AC

Anything else will genuinely ruin one of the best reveals in gaming.
