FFVII Remake: Intergrade Yuffie DLC Announced

[LicoriceAllsorts]

Dull Door, the worthy successor to Hell House. Since Hell House got promoted to star billing at Corneo's Colosseum, Dull Door haunts the slums instead. He doesn't try to kill you, he just makes you uncomfortably aware that something is a little bit off about reality. For the rest of the day you go about your business in a state of inexplicable low-grade anxiety. Does the universe have meaning? Is matter real? Are you real? Are we all prisoners on a random speck of dust hurtling through a meaningless void on its way to oblivion? You just don't know any more.

I can't say that was exactly what I thought when I was watching the playthrough, but I have a big experience gap between playing old console games and seeing modern ones in all their glory, so I wasn't confused in the slightest, LOL

Lol glad I'm not the only one

The texture issues really weren't anything worth complaining for me, although they were noticeable.

For me, the weapons upgrade menu was probably the most horrendous thing that could/should be addressed in the PS5 upgrade. The only thing that doesn't make it completely atrocious is that you can set your weapons to auto upgrade, which dismisses the need to go into that screen ever.

I liked choosing my upgrades, especially mid-game, but yeah that BWOWW transition is definitely tedius, especially for how often I accidentally left the menu The flashy effect is obviously stalling for time while we transition from the real world to the menu world. Based on the new trailer about loading times on PS5, I reckon that fancy menu could load in half the time or less. But to change the transition to reflect that, they'd actually have to get sound design and particle effects people on it, etc. so I think that the transition is unlikely to be any different, except for us now knowing it's not just stalling, it's needlessly stalling

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

It's kind of jarring and feels out of place.
I'd have preferred it if I could have bought weapons upgrades at a vending machine. Ludicrous as that sounds, it would have been more in keeping with the overall aesthetic.

 

[Strangelove]

okay but hear me out

the menu was shiny and i like looking at sparkly thing

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

Fair

On the topic of loading, I wonder if they'll remove any of the "tight space" sequences that Cloud is forced to squeeze through. With the insane processing of the PS5, those areas should be cleaned up.

I now present my top VII most requested "Quality of Life" updates:
1. Weapon skill pop-up box
2. Enhanced materia exchange options
3. Simple weapon upgrade menu (with the option of using the old one)
4. Remove "tight space" sequences
5. Mid-chapter checkpoint select
6. Option to zoom the camera even further out
7. More shortcut options in battle (basically be able to assign skills to the directional buttons as well)

Seeing as I don't think the levels themselves will be redesigned, the best we can hope for is that maybe Cloud squeezes through the tight spaces a little bit faster.

My kingdom for a proper Enemy Skill menu list. I know there are barely any skills for your Enemy Skill materia to learn yet, but the way its learned abilities are kept so obscure in the main menus is just annoying.

 

[Odysseus]

Sequences where Cloud is getting the head fuzzies could stand to be sped up a bit, too.

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

I just want them to upgrade Tseng's face.

 

[Areega]

I actually didn't notice the bad door texture when I first played through the remake. I only noticed it after I heard about it, which was a few weeks later. But since then, I can't un-notice it.

I think it's kind of sad to see the Battle Royale game having wider areas compared to the main game.

I mean, if a BR game had tight spaces we might as well not even install the game.

 

[Odysseus]

Did people think the remake's mapse were too small?

 

[ForceStealer]

There weren't much in the way of wide open spaces, but I think that rather makes sense in a dystopic urban setting

 

[Odysseus]

The original game wasn't exactly know for huge open spaces in the first place, but I thought the remake's maps were decently large anyway.

 

[Shademp]

Confession: I am absolutely indifferent to 60fps when it comes to FFVII Remake. Part of me even thinks it looks weird with such a high framerate.

There are games where a high framerate definitely feels like it adds extra control to the gameplay (like in shooters, fighting games etc) but I just don't see that same type of essential "improved player input feedback" by making FFVIIR run at a higher framerate. As for visuals *alone*, I am fine with 30fps and don't see why I should want 60fps.

 

[ForceStealer]

Honestly I've never been able to really discern framerate differences and I still can't.

On top of that, wouldn't you need a high def hdccauzl tv anyway?

 

[Strangelove]

i think i can notice a difference visually but i also


don’t really care

i think lower frame rates look more cinematic (because that’s what they use in cinemas unless you’re ang lee), and i like that

A thousand percent this.

 

[Makoeyes987]

Higher frame rates look like little people actually moving and doing stuff in my tv.

The clean and smooth look that optimal framerate provides can feel a bit artificial. It also can take away the perceived "weight" of all the elements.
