Modern games just haven't been doing it for me. Im not saying the games are bad... Maybe im just not the target audience anymore? This game looks amazing but I haven't seen anything else so far that i NEED to play at launch. Spiderman 2 looks good but it just kind of looks like a newer version of the ps4 game ive played over and over, so im not in a rush. Starfield i played on a tablet with gamepass... Newer games look amazing graphically, but they are so boring to me for some reason. Theres just too much fluff, with updates, long cutscenes, and hand holding. Id rather just pop into an action game from the 360/ps3 era. Gameplay is king.
If modern games aren’t doing it, Spider-Man 2 is the prime example of crappy modern games, not worth playing from someone who bought the game day one and beat it.
Just like those new Star Trek movies with Chris Pine, those are technically sequel movies as well because the original series and next generations still happen, but history has gotten changed, but old Spock still remembers the original history. Just like Sephiroth knows the original history along with a few others.
If you skip that particular side mission you referenced then you’d be out of region fast travel. And how much source material did you play? The puppy reference is from CC. Angealllllll!!
Guys, play the side quests and do all of cherdly map activities and quests. I’m 100 hours in and still haven’t beat it and I’m absolutely in love with it

character can hop over most objects no issue. Why do you need jump for? If you need to get to higher place there is always ladder or rock formation you can climb. This isn't Mario. Can you jump in GTA4/5? Can you jump in Red Dead? Can you jump in Ghost of Tsushima? Can you jump in Witcher 3? Can you jump in Assassin's Creed?
@@gameskyjumper1721because this game is full of tiny ledges cloud won't jump off and random ones he will. I'd rather take the risk of damage or death and be able to jump.
Forced walking is so fucking frustrating. Just get rid of it please AAA. i don't care if the game is a few hours shorter. Dont remove control from the player.
I wholeheartedly agree with you…. The problem is a lot of people, not you clearly, always bring up “hours”. They equate this to value. Developers in turn fluff them up, which really takes me out of the whole experience
@@Reefer-Rampage69 normal i have a hard time playing games for hours as well but remake and rebirth are exceptions. i loved the battle system in remake and i liked the story. i am thinking i will probably like rebirth just as much if not more.
This absolutely killed 7 Remake for me. I played the demo for Rebirth and even though it’s early game, the second I was forced walking and still having to squeeze through crevices I said nope and dropped it. I’ll get it on sale. Looks amazing but I’m still not it lol
Forced walking? How would you like to get around? Drive in a car? If we just let you Drive everywhere then you'll turn it around and say you hate the "forced driving" ... There is absolutely no pleasing people like you
*How to remake Final Fantasy VII properly* Create a detailed version of the existing story, with all the modern graphics, voice acting and other things that people expect these days. Important scenes are lovingly recreated at last, to play out as they probably looked in first-time players' imaginations (it's no co-incidence that the most successful scenes from the remakes are the most consistent with the source material). The game is refined and expanded upon tastefully - not drastically re-written with shock 'twists' and modern genre tropes crammed in at random. I played the original game again a couple of years ago, having already experienced the story and with full knowledge of what happens. It was brilliant. The emotion and excitement was still there, and it was still an engaging experience despite the outcome being known. The idea that creators need to change the fundamentals of the story to make it relevant because fans already know the story is a logical fallacy used to justify the writers' ego and hubris.
1. Switch 2 isn’t real 2. Cartridge cannot store the game. You’ll need high speed internet to download the full game. 3. Nintendo will never see this game.
@@User12347ejdjI thought the cartridge was just a micro sd card. I have a few 256gb cartridges. The reason why publishers use them because they are cutting cost. So I think you’re wrong.
@@User12347ejdjall of that is incorrect. In tendo would be morons to not do the switch 2 it’s all been confirmed even Pattinson have been released. Also the cartridges are basically a microSD card unit they have micro SD card. They go up to a terabyte now. I don’t even think it will be 10 years I think the more modern Final Fantasy games will go to the switch 2 pretty close after release, probably starting with 14.
It's a great game but the side quest and mini games are sometimes just a bit too much. Plus the story gets skewed a lot. The highs outweigh the lows but it's definitely not perfect.
@@SnuSnu91 objectively nothing is perfect. That aside I would love to see a FF6 remake. My personal favorite. Also I really don't like that they split it into 3 games. I wish they would've kept the same story, and updated the battle system and traversal. I think it's crappy making the consumer pay 3x the amount to get the whole story you could just get in the original. Be honest with yourselves, once you found out the remake was just the midgar section and they bloated it to 40 hours, with changes that were pretty questionable. You knew we were in trouble. I'm on the fence cause I really enjoy what they've done but know if they cut a ton of the mini games, extra storylines, etc that we could have got the whole game for the same price.
It'd be kinda weird if it were a visual treat on the ears. These real time battle games are not becoming more popular with people, they're just being forced on us, and it's the reason why I won't buy it. These remakes blow. Period.
@@jakz737It does suck. The poor writing and Story telling from the ReMake still persist. The whispers are back with all that alternate reality crap. Even the Graphical issues are back where the textures would not load. They didn't learn anything from ReMake... On the PS5 mind. Game is garbage. Don't waste your money. I suggest you just watch the let's plays on RUclips and return it and save your money. 🤷
The only time forcing a character to move slower due to an injury helps is when you couple that with a sense of urgency to move fast, like resident evil when your being chased by the tyrant or something to increase suspense and anxiety during the moment
Which is what they do Well unless your forced into walking but that’s usually during important character conversations which you’d want to listen to anyway, its their way of making it so you don’t have to stand around before a quest marker to wait for them to stop talking
for real. They literally force you to walk slow for no real reason but to make the game seem longer. Then they force you to fight battles to the the Key of the Ancients just to get it stolen RIGHT AFTER. As a fan of FF7 since the beginning, it's one of the most frustrating games i've played in a long time.
With the PlayStation version of Final Fantasy seven, I remember running back-and-forth and trying to trigger more battles so I can get XP to get to the next spot… On the PlayStation version, I fell asleep during one of the cut scenes, woke up and never played it again. There was a mystery about the old version. Nothing was super high definition, so you kinda had to fill in the pieces with your mind. And because of that, it made people think. that was the entertainment value rather than watching an interactive movie like it is today
To some extent I agree. I know its a reimagining but why oh why did they have to take out the mystique of coming across a dead midgarsomr that perfectly described Sephiroths power and sent a chill down your spine in the original game. Sometimes less is more but I am having fun and downloaded PS remote to play at my desk job. I havent felt that way for game in a long time. The game does do something I like, it makes wanna slowly take your time cause you don't know whats behind every corner.
@@arthur17718 I think the best thing they could have done is call it “Final Fantasy 7, return to Midgar” And just fight a reincarnation of Seph. They could have just done an open world and made the game a dedication to Final Fantasy seven lore. But whatever they did here, this just isn’t the way. I couldn’t do it.
this is the reason i wonder why people don't watch you tube videos before they buy games so they make sure they like the games first before buying them. can anyone answer that question?
Tbh - I was practically bored out of my mind until the game starts to pick up a bit in Chapter 11. Sure things happen before then (some substantial) but it was so far and few in between I had to force myself to keep going. (I have also skipped 90% of anything outside of story missions as towers / shrines / excavations (etc etc) are utterly boring and incredibly dense padding to extend playtime. I am a HUGE FF fan (so I am not ragging on the game as a hater) but this is exactly what I was afraid of with the playtime predictions. In all fairness, they didn’t have a lot of source material to work with considering the window they are working with but there is absolutely no reason why this had to be 3 games. Take away all the fluff from remake / rebirth and you would have a solid game in itself. Rebirth isn’t bad by any means but it will be the first FF that I don’t go back to platinum / finish outstanding quests. (Except maybe the proto-relics)
@@InfiniteEdge006 I’ve played the OG and watched a couple trailers for Rebirth.. how is that spoiling myself? For reference, I did not like my own post but now I did so you can see two lol.. Who does that? lol
how can you expect better optimization with a game this big and the hardware it's on, solid 60fps and over 1080p is completely expected and appreciated
@@mr.b1613 Well the reason many people expect that is the ps5 was/is advertised as a 4k/60-120fps console so when a game like this comes out running at 1080p/60fps or 4k/30fps that feels last gen to them. I honestly don't know that they could have made this game run at 4k/60fps on the ps5 though
Am i the only one who despises the mini games. Some were cool, but just got to golden saucer and im really over it. Im playing to game to beat up enemies and level up. I dont want such campaign forced mini games. Really killing the pacing and is the reason it's not a masterpiece. Game is great, but the mini games are too much bloat.
@@kennard3106I like QB and Gwent but don't really think it's cool both games have main story quests that require you to play the games. I like them myself but still.
I dont understand how someone who realy likes FF7 can find anything good in the Remake. So many bad changes, complete different combat, Character and Story changes. I will never touch this Remake but still play FF7.
The padding insane. Dragging around the big vacuum thing in the mako reactor was painful and clearly just drawing the story out because they went the hobbit route. I’m enjoying it but I’m worried how the story is going to go with the whispers and that crap.
@@mortaldragon2nitpicking a 5 minute vacuuming mako energy is not brave it's cringe. It wasn't super long to be super annoying, even if it could've been cut. The fact they let you play as Sepharoth was a nice touch. How bout you make a game we can all criticize. The game is a 92 on meta from both users & critics. How bout we play the whole game without worrying, & rate it ourselves when we're done. Most games aren't this good, that's why it's not getting criticism.
@@Alien_isolationist by writing this paragraph, you only indirectly prove my point. You said nothing to convince me otherwise. No one said the game was terrible or not worth playing. They criticize one thing and you jump on it as if it was nominated worst of the game of the year.
@@mortaldragon2 90% of the games that come out are trash, but when a good game comes out, you bash it. Take Silent Hill 2 for example. It's made by an indie developer who is clearly AA now, & not only do the cutscenes look amazing, the in game atmosphere was nailed. The environments look great, even the combat looks fun, not much different then RE2, yet because the enemies need a polish, it gets trashed left & right. Go play Call of Duty & Madden while you wait for NBA & GTA if Non casual games aren't your thing. It's one thing to have a complaint, but you give no praise or credit where it's due, which just looks like nitpicking. Intergrade, I could have done without playing the sewer level twice, or dancing with a dude in erotic ways, but overall the game was a Masterpiece. So is The Last of Us, despite the black guy sh00ting himself over his brother not being realistic. One or two gripes doesn't warrant tearing apart the game like it's garbage.
I love the “padding” parts so far. It’s make the original game makes more sense in some cases. Example in remake Barrett and Aries were escaping in an elevator with a tank in another elevator fighting. Makes no sense, but Remake caused the elevator to stop on a floor to fight the tank in a big room. Or, the party locked up near Hojo’s lab in the original. Like why didn’t they kill the Avalanche group in the original game? Why didn’t Hojo report them to President Shinra? But, Remake made it a hideout and expand on Aries’ backstory. Kalm makes sense in terms of the calamity at Midgar. In the original we didn’t feel like we committed any crimes until we met the Turks in the swamps area inside the mountain. Just head to the chocobo’s ranch. Rebirth made it seem like we are fugitive this time around from the start. SquareEnix has done a great job of making me feel the relationship and interaction of each members with the padding. That means if the script is the same, it’s going to be tough for real. The plot twist of the original hurt back then. This one could be depressing.😅 That’s what’s so special about the original and the current version. It reminds me when I was younger playing the ps1, while playing on the ps5. Great memories. Masterpieces takes its time and very detailed. Put you on rollercoaster of ups and downs. Then, it stick a prefect landing.
Yeah, the slower parts don’t bother me as much. They didn’t bother me in remake either, because it was part of their journey. Each battle and each step felt impactful, cloud and the gang were growing closer and getting stronger, and, though it has faults, remake was a great first part that led to the amazing rebirth
@@Beadiman did make the perfect landing and so did rebirth, maybe play the game before just opening your mouth talking about multiverse of madness when it was nothing like it.
So, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. I figured i'd review Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, so to do so, I played Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth and to be honest, after playing Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, I realise how excited I was to play Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. JFC, how many times can you say the name of the fecking game?
The card game QUEENs BLOOD is entertaining, fun, and challenging. Plus, you get cool items if you beat people. Don't you love Gil and power ups RGT85?😂
Been playing since Friday. Got about over 10 hours in and just got to Chapter 3. Rebirth is so amazing! Definitely going to get my money’s worth on this game. Been a while since I put over 100 hours into a game. Can’t wait to do it with Rebirth. Everything will get done. With how much fun I’m having with Rebirth this very well could be my fav FF game of all time. I thought RE4 remake was the best remake I’ve ever played and then here comes Rebirth. Instant masterpiece!
@@GoldLBSYeah but RGT isn’t consistent. One day he’s praising a game for having so much to do in it then he’s complaining about Rebirth having too much “padding”. I don’t mind criticisms but make your criticisms consistent. You either like having a lot to do or you don’t.
This is one of the few games iv gotten excited while playing it. Just amazing but I find quality mode a lot better. The earlier area had bad stuttering but it gets better
Yeah, I don't know how people play games like that and still enjoy them. It's like they just rush through the main quest as fast as possible without taking any detours just so they can say they finished it. I have a friend who does that all the time and it irks me. These games are meant to be explored not route optimized straight to main quest markers so you can finish it in 4 hours lol
Me too! These types of games are to be savored. I believe every single area needs to be explored and investigated. But he's a pretty big RUclipsr, so he probably has quite a few review copies of games.
@@brettpardue8786 yeah, I’m almost 30 hours in and I only just finished doing the Junon parade. Haven’t even done all the side quests in the Junon and Grasslands regions yet. Can’t imagine rushing through a game like this.
I'm tired of the same ol shh in video games. They actually took inspiration from ghost of tsushima with the bird showing you a path but it's to a bunch of items you can pick up and clicking in areas. It's so boring.
As someone who bought the digital version of FF7 Rebirth I'm planning to play it after Remake and Intermission just so I can fully enjoy it with the fall understanding of the context (don't worry I've played the Crisis Core remake to completion so I know who Zack is etc).But to me I like to know the little details when it comes to games I like alot and glad to hear the game is getting a good reception especially from RGT didn't know he liked FF7R I've only been subscribed to him for 2months now.
@ThepurposeofTime I haven't played the original but I know alot about it by looking it up on RUclips and stuff but I'll play it before the third part comes out on the Ps6.
@_Paul_N Isn't there a cutscene with Zack at the end of Intermission which is important? Tbh it's a excuse just to 100% both Remake and Intermission before I start Rebirth I'm in a FF7R mode atm.
i wish more video games would come out like this and be more of a finished product. This is the standard of what all games should be at before release if they are going to be a AAA release.
FF7 rebirth Graphics are extremely blurred in performance mode, character model's faces are blurry and shiny, how can you appreciate graphics of this game. Graphics mode doesn't provide more tha 20-25 FPS at 4k. Anything below makes the game blurry. Is your Ps5 has 4090 in it.
This game is probably going to be a GOTY Contender, but I don’t think I’ll buy a PS5 just for the experience. The games today are more about graphics and how cinematic they are and I’m not really interested by that ngl.
At 110 hours in this game is incredible. I can tell a lot of people who arent die hard fans will not understand it. There are so many instances where the scenes or events are exact copies. And as a fan its beautiful. So though you may feel weird about how the characters act, replay the original and youll get a idea of why they are this way. The passion in this game is incredible. Idk how it feels as someone who hasn’t played the original enough that they remember all of it. The easter eggs that make me smile because its an exact copy. And it makes it silly lmaooo. The side missions are very refreshing. Ive never seen minigames that I was actually was enjoying.
I’m a big fan and find this games story so stupid that every second cutscene is sephiroth or plot ghosts.. the plot whisper ghosts are probably the stupidest ive seen in a story lmao the world seems fun though except for some mini games and side quests
Interms of his opinion wit graphics & performance mode. It just comes down to what tv you have. I got an LG old which gives me more options to tweak the visuals as I prefer. I have my settings on graphics mode & the frame rate is close to 60fps
You’re wrong, it is an open world just like Elden Ring, you can literally walk from one area to the next but there are levels & hidden passage ways through out. You haven’t played long enough.
@@Cman04092 No it’s a seamless open world, it’s just built in a very organically structured way that reflects a highly industrialized society overtaking nature. You can walk from the grasslands to junon seamlessly and back. That’s an open world, not hubs like the Witcher 3.
That's why sales are not particulary great this time, the game looks great but actually the gameplay isn't good. Remake had its flaws but It was way better
I have 150 hours at completion. All side quests completed; including that last one where you have to get high scores on EVERYTHING at The Gold Saucer , all world intel etc. I still wish the game was longer 😂. I was sad to be finished . It just has such a magical feel. Love the world and the main cast and how you can see their bonds grow throughout your play. It was a grand journey I wished would never end . Now time to wait another 3-5 years for part 3 😢
Not gonna watch for spoilers but just gotta say, after 31 years of gaming, this game feels like something NEW, it's so massive, I'm in love. It made everything from the remake so much better. First few hours I was kinda ehh, but after that, the whole game opens up and it just feels GOOD. Not really any missions that feel like fluff or pointless yet after 50 hours
Everyone keeps saying the graphics are great, I've never seen a game with such poor rendering in certain areas. In certain places clouds face will turn into mush and textures don't render in properly. I'm sure they will work that out in the end, but it honestly feels like it looks like a Nintendo switch game to me sometimes? The cutscenes are gorgeous, but Final Fantasy 16 is 100 times better looking and the graphics Department. The water in this game looks like my daughter drew it up on Mario Paint. The water in Final Fantasy 16 looks like you could jump in it. I'm loving the gameplay so far though
Pretty sure the Switch would catch on fire if you tried to run this game. I've played it about 10 hours so far, and I never expected it to be nearly as big as it is. It's actually a bit too big in the sheer size of the areas you can explore. I think they really put their hearts into this one and it shows. I wasn't expecting this kind of love and care to be put into it, I think while Remake was an 8/10, this is a 10/10 so far. Maybe it'll fall apart along the way, but I'm having a blast! ❤
The puppy thing is recollection from Crisis Core, as they called Zack “the puppy” nickname from Angeal

@@User12347ejdjI thought the cartridge was just a micro sd card. I have a few 256gb cartridges. The reason why publishers use them because they are cutting cost. So I think you’re wrong.
@@User12347ejdjall of that is incorrect. In tendo would be morons to not do the switch 2 it’s all been confirmed even Pattinson have been released. Also the cartridges are basically a microSD card unit they have micro SD card. They go up to a terabyte now. I don’t even think it will be 10 years I think the more modern Final Fantasy games will go to the switch 2 pretty close after release, probably starting with 14.
😂😂😂
107 hours in, and rebirth is GOTY, even dragons dogma 2 hasn’t come close, I’d honestly be completely shocked if this game is topped this year.
Just finished with 106 hours..one of my best gaming experiences ever
Finished with 120 hours and I totally agree buddy... what a masterpiece.
It's a great game but the side quest and mini games are sometimes just a bit too much. Plus the story gets skewed a lot. The highs outweigh the lows but it's definitely not perfect.
@@suzamanentertainment9083 very true
@@suzamanentertainment9083 well for some of us it's perfect. It's all subjective :)
@@SnuSnu91 objectively nothing is perfect. That aside I would love to see a FF6 remake. My personal favorite. Also I really don't like that they split it into 3 games. I wish they would've kept the same story, and updated the battle system and traversal. I think it's crappy making the consumer pay 3x the amount to get the whole story you could just get in the original. Be honest with yourselves, once you found out the remake was just the midgar section and they bloated it to 40 hours, with changes that were pretty questionable. You knew we were in trouble. I'm on the fence cause I really enjoy what they've done but know if they cut a ton of the mini games, extra storylines, etc that we could have got the whole game for the same price.
It'd be kinda weird if it were a visual treat on the ears.
These real time battle games are not becoming more popular with people, they're just being forced on us, and it's the reason why I won't buy it.
These remakes blow. Period.
I'm getting ff7 next Friday, I can't wait!
It sucks.
@@nosouponheadOkay boomer.
You’re going to have a good time
@@nosouponhead wow I highly doubt that you up played it. I’m enjoying it.
@@jakz737It does suck. The poor writing and Story telling from the ReMake still persist. The whispers are back with all that alternate reality crap. Even the Graphical issues are back where the textures would not load. They didn't learn anything from ReMake... On the PS5 mind. Game is garbage. Don't waste your money. I suggest you just watch the let's plays on RUclips and return it and save your money. 🤷
The only time forcing a character to move slower due to an injury helps is when you couple that with a sense of urgency to move fast, like resident evil when your being chased by the tyrant or something to increase suspense and anxiety during the moment
Which is what they do
Well unless your forced into walking but that’s usually during important character conversations which you’d want to listen to anyway, its their way of making it so you don’t have to stand around before a quest marker to wait for them to stop talking
I'm addicted to the Card game within a game.
RGT is high, queens blood is absolute FIRE
ff7 is the most stretched out filler padded game that's ever existed lol
for real. They literally force you to walk slow for no real reason but to make the game seem longer. Then they force you to fight battles to the the Key of the Ancients just to get it stolen RIGHT AFTER. As a fan of FF7 since the beginning, it's one of the most frustrating games i've played in a long time.
Sadly yes... Like colorsorting segways. I did love most parts of the game though. I just wanted to get on with the story.
With the PlayStation version of Final Fantasy seven, I remember running back-and-forth and trying to trigger more battles so I can get XP to get to the next spot…
On the PlayStation version, I fell asleep during one of the cut scenes, woke up and never played it again.
There was a mystery about the old version. Nothing was super high definition, so you kinda had to fill in the pieces with your mind. And because of that, it made people think. that was the entertainment value rather than watching an interactive movie like it is today
you mean [ ps4/5 version of ff7 ] in the 2nd sentence ?
To some extent I agree. I know its a reimagining but why oh why did they have to take out the mystique of coming across a dead midgarsomr that perfectly described Sephiroths power and sent a chill down your spine in the original game. Sometimes less is more but I am having fun and downloaded PS remote to play at my desk job. I havent felt that way for game in a long time. The game does do something I like, it makes wanna slowly take your time cause you don't know whats behind every corner.
@@arthur17718 I think the best thing they could have done is call it “Final Fantasy 7, return to Midgar” And just fight a reincarnation of Seph.
They could have just done an open world and made the game a dedication to Final Fantasy seven lore.
But whatever they did here, this just isn’t the way. I couldn’t do it.
tell me what games you play 5 games i bet i will be the same way you said in this most people who say this say this just because its on PS
this is the reason i wonder why people don't watch you tube videos before they buy games so they make sure they like the games first before buying them. can anyone answer that question?
Tbh - I was practically bored out of my mind until the game starts to pick up a bit in Chapter 11. Sure things happen before then (some substantial) but it was so far and few in between I had to force myself to keep going. (I have also skipped 90% of anything outside of story missions as towers / shrines / excavations (etc etc) are utterly boring and incredibly dense padding to extend playtime. I am a HUGE FF fan (so I am not ragging on the game as a hater) but this is exactly what I was afraid of with the playtime predictions. In all fairness, they didn’t have a lot of source material to work with considering the window they are working with but there is absolutely no reason why this had to be 3 games. Take away all the fluff from remake / rebirth and you would have a solid game in itself. Rebirth isn’t bad by any means but it will be the first FF that I don’t go back to platinum / finish outstanding quests. (Except maybe the proto-relics)
@@InfiniteEdge006 I’ve played the OG and watched a couple trailers for Rebirth.. how is that spoiling myself? For reference, I did not like my own post but now I did so you can see two lol.. Who does that? lol
Get rid of the card game? No way, it's one of the biggest things I'm excited about.
I'm really enjoying my time with Rebirth. I just wish they could get some of these games optimized better
how can you expect better optimization with a game this big and the hardware it's on, solid 60fps and over 1080p is completely expected and appreciated
@@mr.b1613 Well the reason many people expect that is the ps5 was/is advertised as a 4k/60-120fps console so when a game like this comes out running at 1080p/60fps or 4k/30fps that feels last gen to them. I honestly don't know that they could have made this game run at 4k/60fps on the ps5 though
Am i the only one who despises the mini games. Some were cool, but just got to golden saucer and im really over it. Im playing to game to beat up enemies and level up. I dont want such campaign forced mini games. Really killing the pacing and is the reason it's not a masterpiece. Game is great, but the mini games are too much bloat.
Homie never played gwent
Really?! Gwent is mandatory!
@@kennard3106I like QB and Gwent but don't really think it's cool both games have main story quests that require you to play the games. I like them myself but still.
Tired of games saying open world when it's not
Where did you get the Noggin to beat the sea boss?
I actually think Queens Blood is great and would love to see it expanded further.
Cloud looking like Jane lynch in her prime
Fr idk how so many young people think feminine Anime men like that are “so hot”
As a casual, you really liked it. As a hardcore OG fan, this is the greatest game I've ever played in my life.
There seems to be a lot of things to like but so many things to dislike, greatest game is crazy
I dont understand how someone who realy likes FF7 can find anything good in the Remake.
So many bad changes, complete different combat, Character and Story changes.
I will never touch this Remake but still play FF7.
Modern developers don't know how to make a game without fetch quests.
Have you played Rebirth? Anything you fetch comes with actual rewards.
The padding insane. Dragging around the big vacuum thing in the mako reactor was painful and clearly just drawing the story out because they went the hobbit route. I’m enjoying it but I’m worried how the story is going to go with the whispers and that crap.
At least you admit that. I know it's not a bad game but you can tell many are afraid to say anything negative about it because it's ff7.
Stop worrying and enjoy. Whisperer? They're cetra spirits
@@mortaldragon2nitpicking a 5 minute vacuuming mako energy is not brave it's cringe. It wasn't super long to be super annoying, even if it could've been cut. The fact they let you play as Sepharoth was a nice touch. How bout you make a game we can all criticize. The game is a 92 on meta from both users & critics. How bout we play the whole game without worrying, & rate it ourselves when we're done. Most games aren't this good, that's why it's not getting criticism.
@@Alien_isolationist by writing this paragraph, you only indirectly prove my point. You said nothing to convince me otherwise. No one said the game was terrible or not worth playing. They criticize one thing and you jump on it as if it was nominated worst of the game of the year.
@@mortaldragon2 90% of the games that come out are trash, but when a good game comes out, you bash it. Take Silent Hill 2 for example. It's made by an indie developer who is clearly AA now, & not only do the cutscenes look amazing, the in game atmosphere was nailed. The environments look great, even the combat looks fun, not much different then RE2, yet because the enemies need a polish, it gets trashed left & right. Go play Call of Duty & Madden while you wait for NBA & GTA if Non casual games aren't your thing. It's one thing to have a complaint, but you give no praise or credit where it's due, which just looks like nitpicking. Intergrade, I could have done without playing the sewer level twice, or dancing with a dude in erotic ways, but overall the game was a Masterpiece. So is The Last of Us, despite the black guy sh00ting himself over his brother not being realistic. One or two gripes doesn't warrant tearing apart the game like it's garbage.
How is there an HOUR+ with Cait Sith. The "puzzles" in this are so drawn out. The rest of this game. Tight as Dio's cheeks. Haha
I love the “padding” parts so far. It’s make the original game makes more sense in some cases. Example in remake Barrett and Aries were escaping in an elevator with a tank in another elevator fighting. Makes no sense, but Remake caused the elevator to stop on a floor to fight the tank in a big room. Or, the party locked up near Hojo’s lab in the original. Like why didn’t they kill the Avalanche group in the original game? Why didn’t Hojo report them to President Shinra? But, Remake made it a hideout and expand on Aries’ backstory. Kalm makes sense in terms of the calamity at Midgar. In the original we didn’t feel like we committed any crimes until we met the Turks in the swamps area inside the mountain. Just head to the chocobo’s ranch. Rebirth made it seem like we are fugitive this time around from the start.
SquareEnix has done a great job of making me feel the relationship and interaction of each members with the padding. That means if the script is the same, it’s going to be tough for real. The plot twist of the original hurt back then. This one could be depressing.😅 That’s what’s so special about the original and the current version. It reminds me when I was younger playing the ps1, while playing on the ps5. Great memories. Masterpieces takes its time and very detailed. Put you on rollercoaster of ups and downs. Then, it stick a prefect landing.
Yeah, the slower parts don’t bother me as much. They didn’t bother me in remake either, because it was part of their journey. Each battle and each step felt impactful, cloud and the gang were growing closer and getting stronger, and, though it has faults, remake was a great first part that led to the amazing rebirth
The open world is so damn boring
A perfect landing?? In to the multiverse of madness is not a perfect landing 🤦♂️
@@Beadiman did make the perfect landing and so did rebirth, maybe play the game before just opening your mouth talking about multiverse of madness when it was nothing like it.
@@HenryDurthhow
11 Hours. (Matthew McConaughey) "Gotta get those numbers up, those are rookie numbers!"
I finished my playthrough at 104 hours.
Lol yup
Oh no, it’s super in depth and amazing , and the characters are incredible and hashed out.
So, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. I figured i'd review Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, so to do so, I played Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth and to be honest, after playing Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, I realise how excited I was to play Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth.
JFC, how many times can you say the name of the fecking game?
I actually like the card card game. I mean, I like Triple Triad better, but Queen's Blood is pretty interesting.
Yeah , it just takes a few tries to " get it" now I'm hooked.
The intergrade DLC that you didn’t play had a bigger emotional pay off than the ending of rebirth
It’s a 10 out of 10 for me! I can’t stop playing! Game of year for me!
The card game QUEENs BLOOD is entertaining, fun, and challenging. Plus, you get cool items if you beat people. Don't you love Gil and power ups RGT85?😂
Don't be a hater
Padding in modern gaming drives me absolutely nuts.... if this game is loaded with it I might just return it and get it later at a discount
Everybody's favorite Nintendo RUclipsr
Been playing since Friday. Got about over 10 hours in and just got to Chapter 3. Rebirth is so amazing! Definitely going to get my money’s worth on this game. Been a while since I put over 100 hours into a game. Can’t wait to do it with Rebirth. Everything will get done. With how much fun I’m having with Rebirth this very well could be my fav FF game of all time. I thought RE4 remake was the best remake I’ve ever played and then here comes Rebirth. Instant masterpiece!
You're complaining about side missions and the intro as if you got tiktok brain or something. Enjoy the game bro...enjoy the game
His opinion. People bash and praise games based on their preferences. I'm sure you do the same..
@@GoldLBSYeah but RGT isn’t consistent. One day he’s praising a game for having so much to do in it then he’s complaining about Rebirth having too much “padding”. I don’t mind criticisms but make your criticisms consistent. You either like having a lot to do or you don’t.
@@Ludwig1970 good point.
Hey, so how was the mandatory card game on the Gold Saucer prison?
This is one of the few games iv gotten excited while playing it.
Just amazing but I find quality mode a lot better. The earlier area had bad stuttering but it gets better
What got you the most excited? Was it collecting up Segways or unlocking the ubisoft towers to reveal map icons?
Lol. You are on chapter 4 in 11 hours. I’m 10 and a half hours in and still doing side quests in Kalm and the Grasslands in Chapter 2.
Yeah, I don't know how people play games like that and still enjoy them. It's like they just rush through the main quest as fast as possible without taking any detours just so they can say they finished it. I have a friend who does that all the time and it irks me. These games are meant to be explored not route optimized straight to main quest markers so you can finish it in 4 hours lol
Im in chapter 4 with 22 hrs in. Hes rushing lol
Me too! These types of games are to be savored. I believe every single area needs to be explored and investigated. But he's a pretty big RUclipsr, so he probably has quite a few review copies of games.
Yea I'm 20 hours in chap 4 grasslands complete. Doing everything I can before progressing story.
@@brettpardue8786 yeah, I’m almost 30 hours in and I only just finished doing the Junon parade. Haven’t even done all the side quests in the Junon and Grasslands regions yet. Can’t imagine rushing through a game like this.
I been gaming since nes and i absolutely love rebirth.
I been gaming since nes & I absolutely hate rebirth.
@504Trey sucks to be you lol
Edit: hate ? Reaaaaaaly? Hahaha
I'm tired of the same ol shh in video games. They actually took inspiration from ghost of tsushima with the bird showing you a path but it's to a bunch of items you can pick up and clicking in areas. It's so boring.
As someone who bought the digital version of FF7 Rebirth I'm planning to play it after Remake and Intermission just so I can fully enjoy it with the fall understanding of the context (don't worry I've played the Crisis Core remake to completion so I know who Zack is etc).But to me I like to know the little details when it comes to games I like alot and glad to hear the game is getting a good reception especially from RGT didn't know he liked FF7R I've only been subscribed to him for 2months now.
...did you play original ff7?
You’re in for an experience. “Intergrade” isn’t mandatory though, but it’s still dope! Everyone loves Yuffie.
@ThepurposeofTime I haven't played the original but I know alot about it by looking it up on RUclips and stuff but I'll play it before the third part comes out on the Ps6.
@_Paul_N Isn't there a cutscene with Zack at the end of Intermission which is important? Tbh it's a excuse just to 100% both Remake and Intermission before I start Rebirth I'm in a FF7R mode atm.
People are saying you can play this as a standalone game but 60 hours in you really can't, even the yuffie dlc is pretty crucial
i wish more video games would come out like this and be more of a finished product. This is the standard of what all games should be at before release if they are going to be a AAA release.
Jesus people complain a lot these days
FF7 rebirth Graphics are extremely blurred in performance mode, character model's faces are blurry and shiny, how can you appreciate graphics of this game. Graphics mode doesn't provide more tha 20-25 FPS at 4k. Anything below makes the game blurry. Is your Ps5 has 4090 in it.
i hate the barrage of mini games and the boring music. they took the edge out the music. and they did ALOT of dumb story changes which makes no sense
Yes I hate the game.....yes makes no sense...is trash......
Definitely fucked the music up.
I feel like they stretched every aspect of the game but not in a good way
This ☝️.
This game is probably going to be a GOTY Contender, but I don’t think I’ll buy a PS5 just for the experience. The games today are more about graphics and how cinematic they are and I’m not really interested by that ngl.
not games on switch.
It’s a great game. yes it’s not perfect, but the fact it can keep me saying ‘ok one more thing’ that is hard to do these days
But you’re Nintendo Boy!!!
gotta be honest with what exactly?
This game is the best I have played in years
its open world in the same sense that xenoblade is open world
I think it cool Sony sent a review copy to a Nintendo RUclipsr.
Well half or more of Remake was padding but very few people griped about it there too, much to my annoyance while playing it.
I see no reason to buy it in a episodic slow burn. It's an insult to the original and devoid of flavor.
Dude looks like a Blobfish 😅
Not turn base = no Thank you.pass
It’s 2024 not 97
@@pietrozavattaro2323so? Pokemon, Persona, Baldur's Gate, etc are turn based in 2024 too
@@pietrozavattaro2323indeed it's 2024 and there's tons of popular turn based games so what's your point?
At 110 hours in this game is incredible. I can tell a lot of people who arent die hard fans will not understand it. There are so many instances where the scenes or events are exact copies. And as a fan its beautiful. So though you may feel weird about how the characters act, replay the original and youll get a idea of why they are this way. The passion in this game is incredible. Idk how it feels as someone who hasn’t played the original enough that they remember all of it. The easter eggs that make me smile because its an exact copy. And it makes it silly lmaooo. The side missions are very refreshing. Ive never seen minigames that I was actually was enjoying.
I’m a big fan and find this games story so stupid that every second cutscene is sephiroth or plot ghosts.. the plot whisper ghosts are probably the stupidest ive seen in a story lmao the world seems fun though except for some mini games and side quests
nWo 4 Life...you da man...love your channel. Shoutout from Australia 🇦🇺
Interms of his opinion wit graphics & performance mode. It just comes down to what tv you have. I got an LG old which gives me more options to tweak the visuals as I prefer. I have my settings on graphics mode & the frame rate is close to 60fps
This game is bloated with nonsense sidequests to distract you from the fact that there's probably only about 8 hours of storytelling. Epic fail
Exactly
the first game had 20 hours of padding with slow walking slow talking and just making you run around boring hallways getting stopped by boring enemies
The open world in rebirth is more a reinterpretation from the overworld map in og ff7.
You’re wrong, it is an open world just like Elden Ring, you can literally walk from one area to the next but there are levels & hidden passage ways through out. You haven’t played long enough.
Yes but no. Its more like a buncha smaller open worlds that are connected, at least in the beginning with the two continents.
@@Cman04092 No it’s a seamless open world, it’s just built in a very organically structured way that reflects a highly industrialized society overtaking nature. You can walk from the grasslands to junon seamlessly and back. That’s an open world, not hubs like the Witcher 3.
That's why sales are not particulary great this time, the game looks great but actually the gameplay isn't good. Remake had its flaws but It was way better
I just beat the game last night. My favorite in the franchise now next to XVI. Square has not disappointed me with this trilogy so far.
I agree with the side quest part. I’ve always felt side quest in most games have been boring just filler I guess. Besides that the game still amazing.
I have 150 hours at completion. All side quests completed; including that last one where you have to get high scores on EVERYTHING at The Gold Saucer , all world intel etc. I still wish the game was longer 😂. I was sad to be finished . It just has such a magical feel. Love the world and the main cast and how you can see their bonds grow throughout your play. It was a grand journey I wished would never end . Now time to wait another 3-5 years for part 3 😢
Not gonna watch for spoilers but just gotta say, after 31 years of gaming, this game feels like something NEW, it's so massive, I'm in love. It made everything from the remake so much better. First few hours I was kinda ehh, but after that, the whole game opens up and it just feels GOOD. Not really any missions that feel like fluff or pointless yet after 50 hours
Meh, too much filler nonsense.
Everyone keeps saying the graphics are great, I've never seen a game with such poor rendering in certain areas. In certain places clouds face will turn into mush and textures don't render in properly. I'm sure they will work that out in the end, but it honestly feels like it looks like a Nintendo switch game to me sometimes? The cutscenes are gorgeous, but Final Fantasy 16 is 100 times better looking and the graphics Department. The water in this game looks like my daughter drew it up on Mario Paint. The water in Final Fantasy 16 looks like you could jump in it. I'm loving the gameplay so far though
Why is a Nintendo RUclipsr playing playstation games.. is this coming to switch?
Mayby he is abandoning all the rats?
LOL! 😂
@@goodguythebadman7767keep dreaming
Pretty sure the Switch would catch on fire if you tried to run this game. I've played it about 10 hours so far, and I never expected it to be nearly as big as it is. It's actually a bit too big in the sheer size of the areas you can explore. I think they really put their hearts into this one and it shows. I wasn't expecting this kind of love and care to be put into it, I think while Remake was an 8/10, this is a 10/10 so far. Maybe it'll fall apart along the way, but I'm having a blast! ❤
Switch is to weak
Again this guy saying he's been waiting for this game got a early copy & he's only played 11 hours like he's really into it
