An "8" is definitely the perfect score for this. I've played the original so many times and can't wait to replay this Remake again. They changed just about everything except for the original cutscenes which is no big deal for me cause the fight scene between Angeal, Genesis, and Sephiroth was truly iconic to watch. Sure it had it's small issues in this game but it's honestly nothing worth complaining about. The game is already perfect in it's own right.

@MrInuhanyou123

Жыл бұрын

Well my friend, there are actually two reasons for that. Ff7r had much greater scale in it's environments, so the memory limitations on PS4 were much higher. This was rectified in the PS5 release and the PC version since they are much more powerful. With crisis core reunion they have kept the same areas and structure of the original psp game allowing for better memory management for textures and assets in the environments. So even on PS4 textures should not be too low res compared to the stronger console. Dunno about switch tho 😂

If you must play one of those first I'd say go with Remake then Crisis Core Reunion. Ideally you would start with the original FF7 first, even if it seems outdated by comparison since "Remake" really isn't a traditional remake. It goes out of its way to establish that it happens after the original in a sort of alternate timeline with different events. Which makes it more of a sequel. So basically it doesn't replace the original outright. Rebirth is also looking to change more than they already did in Remake. Their justification being "both old and new fans don't know what will happen."
