Pretty damn accurate, they've seemingly nailed all of the major points of FFVII in this Remake.

As for the ending, it's a conclusion to the unique plot that exists within the first installment of the Remake. It's mindscrew-y but... It's amazing. Might require more playthroughs, and more contextual information to understand but it's... I think there's something there to bring it together that's pretty wild and fascinating.

 

[Prism]

Now that’s what I love to hear.

 

[oty]

Yeah, like....the plot points are the same. The road to them is sort of similar? And then you have new stuff in between, that, atleast to me, are important enough in the overall scheme of things.

Spoiler

In the overall scheme of things however, there are a lot of significant changes.

And then ofc the ending, which is just.....I love it and I hate it at the same time. Its certainly something. Even if there is a lot of misinformation rn, the discussions about it will become part of the FFVII community for the end of time.

The game has just a great way to be very much what you think and also completely bonkers at the same time.

This is a pretty good summary of what I want from the Remake, more or less. That sounds like a great, succinct way to put it.

 

[Prism]

OK, I think I have one more question before I'm good. In the original, the really diverse and melodic soundtrack is pretty iconic. The demo just had a (really well) orchestrated OST accompanying it, like a movie. Is the soundtrack still "game-like" with the iconic melodies and wide range of instruments, or is just all orchestrated now?

 

[Makoeyes987]

Oh it's definitely not just orchestrated.

There's a good bit of variety, and the tracks are great. It's thankfully not just what you hear in the demo.

 

[Tetsujin]

The soundtrack is eclectic af

With 2 composers and 3 arrangers there's a huge variety in styles and genres present.

Im super excited and cant wait for Friday! How are the Turks like in the remake? I was always afraid they are going to make them the comic relief, and not as bad ass as they should be.

They're "bad ass". Not comic relief this time.

 

[The Twilight Mexican]

They're still comic relief too, but that's more comparable to what that meant with them in the original. They're charming, but also fucking scary. In other words, they are perfect. They are definitely everything we wanted the Turks to be in the remake.

Thank you!

Thank. Fucking. God.

THE TURKS ARE BACK BABY!!!

Sorry if this question isn't entirely appropriate, but after watching the final trailer for ff7 remake I learnt about how spoiler filled the trailer was. I was just wondering if

Spoiler

Aerith's mother telling Cloud about Sephiroth told Aerith that she was an Ancient

was a spoiler.

 

[LNK]

A yes or no answer is all I need for my question.

Spoiler

do the Cetra get more back story in this part of the remake?

Cool! I can't wait

I don't recall Sephiroth doing that? I could be remembering things wrong, but that scene is pretty consistent with the original game.

 

[NeithOF]

I have a question about hard difficulty

Spoiler

Do monsters level scale with you once you start hard mode? Cause I heard you get to keep all your levels and materia, you can't start a fresh file on hard so i am wondering how does the difficulty work?
Won't at least the first 4 or 5 chapters be easy as hell due to the huge difference in levels?
Do monsters start at higher level now or do they have their stats buffed or something?

Also i heard EXP and AP gains are trippled on hard mode, so is it better/more efficient to grind on your hard playthrough instead of doing it on your normal or should i just max out everyone and all weapons before heading into hard to avoid getting facerolled?

Thanks in advance.

How often / how many times do we see the Turks? And Reeve?

 

[The Twilight Mexican]

How often / how many times do we see the Turks? And Reeve?

Spoiler

For Reeve: slightly more than in the Midgar segment of the original.

For the Turks: lots more than in the Midgar segment of the original.

 

[Tetsujin]

Okay, just tell me this one thing.

Can you still flush the toilet in the Shinra building?

Doesn't seem like anyone's answered this, so...
