    FFVII: Ever Crisis Announced

    Just dropped a .5 gig patch, so guess they've already preloaded some of the new data ahead of maintenance tonight. Patch notes up in the notices. Everything previously mentioned, including a new Criterion Dungeon, Cawpine Caverns, which I suppose is that underground Rhadoran resistance base...

    FFVII: Ever Crisis Announced

    Some official English PR finally rolling out this morning. Interestingly, they changed the name of his Limit Break from Hell's Gate (獄門, Gokumon) to Astral Gate (星門, Seimon), which uses the kanji hoshi meaning "star," "planet," or "geo-," depending on the term and translation (in FFVII...

    FFVII: Ever Crisis Announced

    So, some more details about the livestream. Nomura apparently mentioned that he's been in discussion with Toriyama about wanting to eventually include the sections of the story that have been skipped via the Story Quests feature. He also reiterated that they plan to include AC, BC, and DC...

    FFVII Rebirth at Tokyo Game Show '23 and media bonanza

    Yes. In Japanese nomenclature "episode" means "chapter" or "section" and "scenario" means "script."

    FFVII: Ever Crisis Announced

    The game gets a bit grindy as you push to higher power levels to take on the most difficult endgame content, and "very hard" challenges require a fair bit of strategy, but if you just want to play through the story and casual content (normal / hard difficulties) it's very approachable. The...

    FFVII: Ever Crisis Announced

    Full art for Young Sephiroth. Also mentioned presents to commemorate the update livestream, which will include a free 5-star Sephiroth weapon.

    Looks like a couple of datamined assets, though I can't verify their authenticity myself yet.

    FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH ANNOUNCED

    The main reason PS1 games got spread across multiple discs had nothing to do with the length of the games, but rather the size of the FMV cutscenes, which for FFVII comes to a total of about 1 GB. Every single disc of FFVII has the full game data, which only takes up about 300 MB, and the only...

    VII REBIRTH RELEASES FEB 29! NEW TRAILER!

    Somehow it took me three rewatches to realize that Sephiroth's last bit of dialogue is, "It's upon us... the Reunion. When worlds merge." So pretty overt that Sephiroth is trying to merge parallel worlds as part of a different kind of Reunion. Or maybe Jenova's cellular reunion actually spans...

    VII REBIRTH RELEASES FEB 29! NEW TRAILER!

    Personally don't think the Terrier Timeline is actually staggered in the past. My theory is that they're happening in parallel and something was altered in the Terrier Timeline to stall Zack and Cloud's escape from Nibelheim such that they didn't arrive on the outskirts of Midgar until three...

    VII REBIRTH RELEASES FEB 29! NEW TRAILER!

    Oh, assets up on the press site: https://press.na.square-enix.com/FINAL-FANTASY-VII-REBIRTH New renders of the original cast too, and new headshot renders of them all also.

    FFVII: Ever Crisis Announced

    One thing to consider about the grind is, as with all gacha games, it'll get easier over time. The first few weeks / months of any gacha game is when resource limitations are most noticeable, but eventually they'll have to make adjustments so newer players can catch up to veterans and everything...

    VII REBIRTH RELEASES FEB 29! NEW TRAILER!

    Looks like Glenn Lodbrok, the main protagonist of EVER CRISIS / THE FIRST SOLDIER. He's one of the original "passive model" SOLDIERs from the Project 0 era, before the introduction of Hojo's augmented "active grade" SOLDIERs. The story of the game is still being told, but it's set 15 years...

    FFVII: Ever Crisis Announced

    It occurs to me that Elmyra said her husband went MIA 15 years ago, which is the same year TFS starts. So I wouldn't be surprised if her husband plays a role in the story. Glenn is shown to be alive at the time of the Mass SOLDIER Desertion so probably not him, but maybe Matt, or maybe he'll...

    FFVII: Ever Crisis Announced

    The new arrangement of One-Winged Angel they use for younger Sephiroth is really cool. I wish they had done something like this for Crisis Core, especially during the scene where he's training with Genesis and Angeal. Always bugged me that they busted out the final boss version when he's still...

    FFVII: Ever Crisis Announced

    Ponytail Tseng makes me wonder if they're actually going to redesign all the BC Turks in Remake style, since they've taken the effort in Remake to vary up the style, cut, and fabrics of Reno, Rude, Tseng, and Elena's suits.

    FFVII: Ever Crisis Announced

    Zack's beach costume and Parasol can be earned for free with a minimal amount of grinding. Tifa's and Red XIII's costumes are on the new Stamp banner along with weapons. Looks like Aerith and Cloud will get weapons and costumes next week based on the event story. The event story is fairly long...

    FFVII: Ever Crisis Announced

    So at the end of the available TFS chapters they have a teaser for the next chapter which includes playable Sephiroth. So that should be coming next month. Save some resources for his inevitable weapons and costumes I suppose.

    FFVII: Ever Crisis Announced

    https://www.4gamer.net/games/555/G055549/20230906053/ Lisa Fujise was doing the art for KINGDOM HEARTS Missing-Link and Nomura thought her art would work well for EVER CRISIS too, since it slightly resembled the BEFORE CRISIS art but with a more sophisticated modern style, so he stepped aside...
