    This remake was actually my first introduction to Final Fantasy 7 and i loved it. It actually made me want to play the original Final Fantasy 7 and I'm loving it so far.

      I started with the original, and it impacted me in a profound way. Similarly, Remake made me go back and play the original from start to finish. Admittedly, I've played the OG more than a couple dozen times, but hadn't planned on it.
      I'm ridiculously time blind-like, I can't remember my birthday, anniversary, etc... without multiple calendar reminders-but, I can still tell you the exact day that FF7 entered my life: December 26th, 1997.
      All that said, I still don't get the hate that falls on the Remake trilogy. I didn't think that FF7 could surprise me anymore, let alone leave me in a position where I'm on the edge of my seat in wonder. And, I get to fall in love with these characters and this world all over again.
      Talk about a win win.

      I'm doing the opposite. I had never played FF7 either (15 was the first and only one I played, and I didn't care for it), but I bought Remake awhile back but never got around to playing it, so when I finally got the itch with Rebirth approaching...I couldn't do it. It felt wrong not to play the original first. So I just got the Platinum in the PS4 version of the original yesterday and thought it was fantastic. Taking a little break and will either jump into Remake soon or I also ended up being FF8 on PS4 as well (and IX and X/X-2 HD), and might go that route instead.

      Beat FF7 OG (all time fav. game)
      Dropped Before Crisis (2004 mobile game with fan remake, eh, apparently has an amazing story)
      Watched Advent Children (complete version!)
      Beat Dirge of Cerberus (craaazy to see some of it come back in Remake’s Side Story, INTERmission)
      Beat Crisis Core (PSP this time around, beat it on PS5 when it came out)
      Beat Remake Intergrade (beat it on PS4 when it came out, got the physical copy on PS5 when it came out, finally played it)
      Beat INTERmission (it’s really sweet, and not too long, first playthrough when it came out took me around 6 hour and 57 min., second playthrough around 3 hours shorter, so def. give it a shot before Rebirth)

      Just so you know, if you're like me & don't like knights, castles dragons & that look / vibe, the other Final Fantasy games might not be for you. Each game is on a different planet, only Crisis Core & FF7 have Cloud & Midgar. Just a heads up, it's a reason why this one got the remake & no others.

      I picked up from chapter 14 after taking a year off on accident. Unfortunately, 15-18 is mainly side content, a drawn out dungeon and back to back boss fights and walking in between. The story is basically over from here. Make sure you do everything available before moving on, or you'll have to come back in chapter selections. Might be less of a drag if you're playing it all at once, but also you might burn out faster too so keep that in mind.

Although not essential, I think it's a good time if you want to get more into the world of FF7 itself.

      the funny thing is, people today forgot how FF7 was sold on the backs of midgar. and even in universe, its one of the most important cities in the world. but we barely spend any time there, and outside of a minor side quest, its completely inconsequential to the rest of the game.
      the entire game being set in midgar made use at least feel how massive it's supposed to be.
      sure the game has a few pacing issues in some chapters, but its also a joy to explore the nooks and crannies of the places.
      i just wish we had more freedom to explore and go back and forth. i even think that was the original plan for the chocobo rides, but got scrapped for one reason or another.

      How could you not unerstand that they fought fate, won, Sephiroth absorbed all the little fate protecting creatures and he let Cloud kill him so it would also kill fate. After that they were free of fate which is what Sephiroth wanted so that he could (in his mind) finally be able to win and get out of fate's plan that kept him from winning. Then Sephiroth left fates realm and went back to the world to continue his plan and the gang followed him knowing (because Aerith told them) they were free of fates plan and anything can happen now. Which means they don't have to follow everything the og did because that was what fate wanted and tried to keep on track but now they are dead Sephiroth and the gang can start over freash. AKA the Final Fantasy VII Remake isn't really a remake but a sequal.

    A LOT of the side content felt unneeded. Probably the most atrocious side quests I’ve ever played in a video game, when I think final fantasy 7 I don’t think of playing hide and seek with a group of kids.
    For some reason they love forcing you to move very slow for a huge chunk of the game, it’s supposed to be dramatic effect but when it’s done every 15 minutes I just feel like turning the game off at that point.
    Sephiroth was also way overused in this game. This part of the story in the OG had little to do with sephiroth yet he completely took over the end of the game and added absolutely nothing. Sure it was a cool final
    Boss battle mechanically but narratively it left a sour ass taste in my mouth.
    The dementors were also trash, I understand their purpose but it’s such a dumb way to regulate the original timeline. I don’t wanna think of Harry Potter when I’m in Midgar.
    FF 7 Remake gets way too much hype, at least rebirth has a different creative director this time around so the game should be different enough then the first one

      The way I understood it, Red and Aerith at first THINK the whispers are trying to protect the original destiny, but in the last chapter it looked to me like they are somehow influenced by Sephiroth. Maybe everything sourrounding those things happened because Sephiroth tried to turn fate to his favor, cause he somehow found out he's destined to lose in the end.

    Man.... I have Rebirth in my possession, but am REALLY torn on whether to go ahead & finish Remake first or not!
    I only got about a third of the way thru Remake, and moved on to other games that came out, & just never really went back to it. Not cus I didn't love it, I did! However, now Rebirth is the new hotness & I REALLY want to try it!!
    Question is.... Should I stuff this excitement deep down & just finish Remake first, or should I just go ahead & play Rebirth? I have already spoiled the hell out of myself by watching footage of Remake's cutscenes & ending, so I don't know if I'll be missing much by skipping it. I've also played thru the OG PS1 game several times in the past.
    What do you guys think I should do?

      The thing is keeping the timeline intact are no longer.
      So I don’t see a sixth sense type of scenario. Also, how would he know about Marlene? The situation the.Barrett and Tifa storming the shinra building could take place without Cloud. Marlene could’ve still be taken to Aerith’s house.

    I played the remake for the first time last year. Never played the original. While I absolutely loved the story and the art of the game, I thought the combat system was kind of just okay and the side quests/busy work weren't particularly fun either. I don't think I ever fully vibed with Cloud either as he comes across as too much of a hardass, but every other character felt very well fleshed out and I found the pacing was perfect. The cinematic moments in the game go beyond most of the games I typically play to a level where it gets ridiculous, but I loved it nonetheless. For me this game was a very solid 8/10 and one of the better games I played last year.

    I remember the first time I played this. FF7 virgin. Had a blast. Replayed it recently and basically the only criticism I have is that some of the chapters could just not be there or could be way shorter. The padding is infuriating.
    But the story, the characters, TIFA! Oh man. And combat is flawless. I wasn't overpowered the first time so I was at the exact edge of tension of whether I survive this or that bigger encounter but I almost always did. Like perfect dopamine booster. Second time I played it on hard and finally learned how to utilize materia. Also had a blast and the game actually felt easier than on normal, lol.
    Now I'm going through the original FF7 in preparation for Rebirth and loving it. Gameplay is outdated but I can see why so many consider it a masterpiece. It is. Even two decades later. But without the 3x speed cheat I wouldn't have the patience for it, animations are way too sloooooow.

    I thought they would have made Aerith live or die based on the player's decisions. It would add a lot of replayability, would also make sense since there used to be so many rumors about saving her, I thought they'd make it so you finally can. This would add a lot of complexity to part 3 though. They would need to have two different versions, a part 3 where she lives and one where she's dead.

    Zack still dies a hero in the original timeline. And he could still die again as a hero. Hopefully he doesn't and gets a happy ending with Aerith. As great as his death scene was, when I finished Remake and saw him alive I was so happy. He is one of my all time favourite characters from FF.
    I don't see it as a sequel, just an alternative timeline. Old FF7 still happens the way it always did in the prime timeline. There is just now also a canon alternative timeline.
    At least based on Remake they did fantastic. It is what people wanted since their tech demo teaser, at least what I wanted after that teaser. And I think coming up with the alternative timeline was a good idea. Would I be looking forward to Rebirth if it would be prime timeline? Yes. But with it being in an alternative timeline where the story is unpredictable, I look so much more forward to it and the final conclusion with the third game.

    I actively despise this game, just finished my second playthrough that I was doing in preparation for Rebirth. I remember thinking it was okay in my first playthrough.
    It didn’t hold up. It’s a 30 hour tutorial filled with bullshit everywhere. So many slow walking sections, so many tedious “puzzles” like the robot hand where the solution is obvious but it still takes 5 minutes to do it, so many boss fights with multiple phases, so many bullshit padded runtime dungeons.
    I didn’t hate everything in the game. I had a lot of fun in both the reactors and also everything from the plate falling to the end of the highway right before the final boss. I don’t hate the concept of what they were doing with the whispers, but I found the implementation of them in the final boss to be madness inducing. The final boss fight was nothing but pure tedium.
    If the game has maintained that quality that it had from the plate falling to just before the end, I’d even call it a good game. But for the entire first half of the game, I was miserable. I knew it was all padding. I knew it was all meaningless as a way for Square to get 3 games worth of money out of their customers. This shit should’ve been a level in Rebirth. I bet you that I end up loving that game as it has more room to create substantial side content thanks to the world map…but man. I’m glad they released intermission, since I actually really liked that dlc and it bodes well for Rebirth.
    Still, fuck the remake. I’m never playing this shitty game again. It’s just not worth it to get 5-10 hours of fun in a 30-40 hour game
