FF7 Remake Review Megathread

You can still comment but it looks like they removed the option to flag a review as "unhelpful". Only option you get beyond marking the review as "helpful" is to report it (which I did btw....and I encourage others to do the same).
As you can see, people are telling this person he's wrong but he continues to refuse to acknowledge it was mentioned multiple times and even says so on the back of the box.

OpenCritic's score went up to 89 from 88 about two days ago, out of 100 reviews too.

well that title sounds sarcastic...

Despite what is being discussed regarding the final chapter it would be harsh in the extreme to give it anything less than an 8/10 given the obvious painstaking time and effort put into the game. The effort and end result alone deserves a high score.

It’s not - he genuinely seems to have enjoyed the game.

I actually used to post on a pro wrestling message board with Jim Sterling. We are talking a good fifteen years ago.. He used to call himself Morphine Jim. He was a huge FFVII fan back then. Take that for what its worth.

Lol sorry I'm new here, and new to these kind of "forums". I didn't see any recent threads concerning the plot whatsoever... but I'll look better next time!

This article comparing parts of the Remake to the Yakuza series was interesting https://www.gamespot.com/articles/final-fantasy-7-remake-has-big-yakuza-energy-and-i/1100-6476496/
Also The Completionist as released his review of the game and it is a long one.

I’m surprised, normally I like that guy’s videos, but this one was just unpleasant to watch. Besides just disagreeing with him on nearly every point he makes (assuming he’s sincere and not joking on them), I was also really put off by him describing Tifa’s character (OG and Remake) as being just “brain dead and pair of huge boobs”.
EDIT: Apparently it’s a relatively well known fact the guy just doesn’t like JRPGs in general. Surprised he’s trending on Twitter.

Honestly his reviews are never all that good. It's either dialogue taken out of context, playing the game badly on purpose or misrepresenting entire scenes, unless its mario :^) (Did he really show the staircase scene as an example of monotonous gameplay? Bruh)
Better when he just sticks to bein a funnyman.

He makes jokes but takes liberty with how accurate he is with the content. That's his schtick. From the plate falling part to the end of the video was hilarious. And a chunk of that bit mimicked how I felt at least.
I'm sure some of that is how he really felt. However he was positive about the original FFVII throughout the video and critical of the Remake, only for his conclusion to be 'but the two are about equal, because the Remake doesn't have random encounters.'
Which contradicts almost the entire video, making it another aspect I found funny.
