I think Spell + Elemental must be what the overwhelming majority of players have in Cloud's first two slots (in part because it makes it quicker to swap elements), so it makes sense that they opted for that in most of the prerendered scenes. Tifa's Ability + Spell is less sensible since they're...

In the demo build it was localized as As for the liberal translation, I know fairly early on there was talk of them attempting to localize the game less literally to better match the way Western players remembered the original English translation, which characterized characters somewhat...

I don't think there's anything discernible from the metadata since it has to be extracted and converted, though I could be wrong. I only have files that have already been converted to viewable formats. But there's definitely stuff that's incomplete or which has been changed for the final...

I forgot to mention this in my previous post, but I feel like with some of the new things introduced here -- chiefly the VR presentation about the Ancients and the Promised Land, and the ending itself -- that they're maybe actually sort of circling back to and doubling down on some of the...

I would assume that they were just placeholders.

Because there are a ton of unique 3D assets for each of the different maps. A lot of the stuff in the scenery has unique geometry. Plus there's a ton of audio in multiple languages. No offense but this really sounds like something someone with no understanding of game development would say...

So is Part II going to start with Yuffie stealing all your shit so you have to start over from scratch? On a serious note, now that I've beaten it, is there any official clarification on what exactly the visions of Zack are meant to be? I still feel like they're going to hit all the same story...

So, stayed off the forum for the last week while I finished the game. To put it simply, I fucking loved it. Currently have about 70 hours clocked on my save. It's not perfect, it definitely stumbles here and there. Some of the sidequests are your typical unimaginative JRPG filler. There are...

Well, FedEx did screw up the delivery, but luckily they put it on my neighbor's doorstep instead of mine, so I was able to start playing this afternoon.

All the dialogue and music outside of cutscenes seems to be based on the position of the camera. It can be pretty jarring and at times it becomes difficult to hear characters. I hope that this and the super obvious LOD bug can be fixed in a patch before long.

Hoping for the best, but have a bad feeling I'll be spending the day waiting for FedEx to show up, only to have them fuckup the delivery like usual.

I'm assuming it's the same setup as FFXV, which is that Nomura mainly designed the playable characters and Ferrari mainly designed the sub characters, with Nomura providing direction and perhaps art corrections. Though, I don't think we've actually seen any concept art for the playable...

Mine shipped yesterday and is currently en route, with expected delivery by end of day Friday. It's FedEX though and they always seem to fuck it up somehow.

In lieu of a full review, from the dude behind Let's Mosey: A Slow Translation Of Final Fantasy VII:

I don't normally give Kotaku's reviews that much weight, but knowing how cynical Schreier has been about the Remake, his review was the one I was most interested in seeing, and it bodes pretty well: The three mixed (3/5) reviews mainly seem to be docking points for the same things: tedious...

They've said they're still going to hit all the major story moments. I get the feeling that any twists or mindfuckery are just going to be there to screw with our expectations to make the inevitable gut punches hit even harder when they do come. I'm thinking of Paz in MGSV. You see her get...

From what I'm hearing, completion time is around 25 hours for a no frills run, 35-40 hours for a complete run, and then there's an unlockable chapter select with optional hard mode versions of each chapter that I understand are brutally challenging, which could easily add another 20-30 hours for...

Nojima is the common factor in SE plot gobbledygook far more than Nomura. Nomura has only directed a couple projects outside of KH, and everything he directs is written by Nojima. I think we'll need to wait until the second part of the project to see what kind of an impact this actually has on...

And in the end of the new trailer they walk into the Midgar "cocoon" saying "this may be her last line of defense" most likely referring to the Planet. And Sephiroth flat out tells Cloud that they will defy fate together, so obviously he is conspiring to change destiny, too. Maybe I'm...

Are you basing this on the game, or just guessing? I don't get why the arbiters would be trying to ensure the Planet's demise. Maybe I missed something, but I don't know where the "from the future" thing comes from either. I'm seeing lots of references to destiny, but nothing implying time travel.
