I'm pretty sure that アイテム課金型 is just Japanese nomenclature for "microtransactions" or "in-app purchases" (which is what the EN site says) which will most likely be paid chapters, just like FFXV Pocket Edition. Nothing about this looks like a gacha game. Aerith and the summons are most likely...

Not really sure what to call this thread, but for those who might not be aware, there are several games, especially mobile titles, where Final Fantasy VII characters appear as guest characters, which often necessitates creating various unique weapons and abilities for them that don't originate...

It seems likely to me that Sonon has been involved with this Avalanche cell for a while and Yuffie has only recently arrived to offer her expertise as a materia hunter. That's at least the vibe I get from the trailer.

Looks like an ATB meter with icon-based skills instead of menu-based skills. Probably each of those is a materia slot or something. Ever Crisis will probably be like FFXV Pocket Edition. First chapter free, additional chapters released over time for $2 each or something, and then when they're...

I can't say I'm happy with the DLC being exclusive to the PS5 version, given that I finally bought a PS4 just for Remake. Never thought I'd see Weiss again.

This is pretty cool. More faithful remake of the original game, plus covering the plots of the entire Compilation. Hopefully they port it to PC like they did with FFXV Pocket Edition.

Anyone else think it's weird that they're limiting this to mobile? I mean, it's fucking weird in general, but you'd think they'd make it multiplatform.

Given the naming structure of the Compilation it's obvious that EVER CRISIS is a major entry. Hard to say if it'd be a subtitle for the next part of the REMAKE, or maybe some sort of combined retelling of BC/CC. Its name makes it feel like a continuation of both the Compilation and a tie-in to...

Jim Sterling included it in their top five games of 2020, which is quite high praise:

Whether FFVIIR-2 gets awards or not I think is largely dependent on what other games get released the year it comes out. As an anime-influenced JRPG it's always going to have stiff competition from grounded AAA western titles.

So far my predictions for awards are spot-on. Though that's just because it's kind of predictable what they're looking for in all of these categories. TLOU2 got Best Direction (lol) so I'd say the chances of GoT getting GOTY just got a bit higher. That tends to be their GOTY runner up award...

The thing about video game magazine previews is that, for the most part, they're just regurgitated press releases. The exception would be import reviews, and the only magazine I remember having extensive import coverage was Diehard GameFan. You can find scans and PDF of lots of classic gaming...

I'm still expecting TLOU2 and/or GoT to snag most of the big awards since they're the video game equivalent of Oscar Bait. FFVIIR has a solid shot at picking up best RPG and best score. Hades might snag the latter but, as good as the music is, I think it's a pretty weak showing compared to...

As great as the art direction and music in Hades is, I don't think it really stands out much from Transistor or Pyre. It's a gorgeous game, but pretty much standard fare for Supergiant at this point. I feel like TLOU2 has the best shot at winning stuff since it's the video game equivalent of...

Second (mini) batch of FF7R units: And a Neo Vision upgrade for the OG Cloud:

It's still too early to properly compare, but if we're just talking Midgar, I'd certainly rather replay Remake than the OG. Comparing the two, the original now feels abbreviated, like more of a rough outline.

I feel like opening with the Nibelheim flashback is a solid bet. I could also imagine something like it quickly jumping into action with the party being pursued through the wastelands by Shinra forces, echoing the intro of Advent Children, maybe even set to a new version of "Beyond the...

I mean, yes and no. You can still attempt to preserve the Japanese sentence structure, which is sometimes vital because the delivery may need to convey information in a particular order to elicit surprise or match body language. In this case, something like, "I was by the hotel and across the...

I'd have to rewatch the scene but I thought they were on the outskirts of Sector 7 (IE effectively in Sector 6) pulling debris of the wreckage. Either way it's obviously not important. When things are important the directing makes it obvious, like the slowdown on the Stamp chip bag.
