FFVII Remake has confirmed Japanese, English, German and French voiceovers, same as FFXV.
I wonder how they'll handle the lip sync for all of those languages... I remember being surprised that they had proper English lip sync for the State of Play trailer, but doing it for German and French too seems like a ton of work. Though, if you can switch between four languages/animation sets, the game being on two blu rays makes a lot more sense, haha.

They'll just dub German and French over the English lip sync.

That makes sense, thanks!

Now that we know the first game is set entirely in Midgar, I'm curious to see if they move some events from the OG world map into Midgar. Like, maybe you run into Yuffie in a back alley and recruit her there, or Cloud tells the party about Nibelheim in Midgar, rather than in Kalm.
That might be a good way to expand the Midgar section while also making the next part a little more manageable in terms of development resources and time.

I can't wait to see how they show Tifa listening to Cloud's story. She doesn't say a word really during it but can you imagine the emotions/body language they'll show during the bits when it flashes forward back to Cloud as he says things she knows he shouldn't know.

If part 2 were to start either in Kalm or even just during the flash back itself, that would still preserve the surprise of walking out onto the world map for the first time, rather than just dumping you straight onto it at the beginning.

A Midgar game has a very good opportunity to make an indirect Genesis reference in the form of the LOVELESS poem ;)
'It appears to be about LOVELESS...'

Prologue: When the war of the beasts brings about the world's end
The goddess descends from the sky
Wings of light and dark spread afar
She guides us to bliss, her gift everlasting
Act I: Infinite in mystery is the gift of the Goddess
We seek it thus, and take to the sky
Ripples form on the water's surface
The wandering soul knows no rest.
Act II: There is no hate, only joy
For you are beloved by the goddess
Hero of the dawn, Healer of worlds
Dreams of the morrow hath the shattered soul
Pride is lost
Wings stripped away, the end is nigh
Act III: My friend, do you fly away now?
To a world that abhors you and I?
All that awaits you is a somber morrow
No matter where the winds may blow
My friend, your desireIs the bringer of life, the gift of the goddess
Even if the morrow is barren of promises
Nothing shall forestall my return
Act IV: My friend, the fates are cruel
There are no dreams, no honor remains
The arrow has left the bow of the goddess
My soul, corrupted by vengeance
Hath endured torment, to find the end of the journey
In my own salvation
And your eternal slumber
Legend shall speak
Of sacrifice at world's end
The wind sails over the water's surface
Quietly, but surely

'Apparently the 5th Act has been lost to time...'
Just kidding... Obviously we'd get a DIRECT reference in the form of the remnants of his fanclub!!!111

Shortest play ever. Yet Cid managed to fall asleep during it.

Little longer to wait but cant wait to see what Bugenhagen looks like!

Oh and Chocobo Sage, Ester and of course, all incarnations of Jenova!
There are so many NPCs in this game that I can’t wait to see. Johnny shouldn’t be too far away ... Corneo ... Hell I’m even looking forward to seeing the Sector 5 bandit enemies.

I really hope they keep the street punk vibe of a lot of the slum dwellers too.
