@Shin-Zantetsuken: i'm pretty sure they're well past that. One thing is what they have worked on, one is what they're gonna show before e3.

Overload2623d ago

"It will be 2 years this year at E3 since the games reveal at E3 2015... I hope some of us are alive by the time this game releases."

After E3 2015 people said we wouldn't see it again for years..... then we saw it a few months later running in real time. Now we are seeing it again. I'm not sure what the problem is here?

@shin

Taking too long or announced too soon?

Its common knowledge now that square enix likes to take their time with final fantasy and kingdom hearts games. If this is being developed as multiple full games, as they have stated, is it fair to say its taking to long your that you want it sooner than it will be available due to the game being announced sooner than it should have.

You figure out that answer. And you may start enjoying more games that otherwise lost your own hype

ummmmm........ Did you guys catch this look at the menus..even after looking at the NEW image it STILL has a menu system. Look on the lower left.....MAIN menu selections are ATTACK......MAGIC.....MATERIA. ..ITEMS. This is looking SWEET!

Not only that they don't call it menu but COMMAND but if you look to the left and right of it you can see that there is more of the COMMAND menu by pressing L1---R1............I'm guesing the others are DEFEND....SUMMON...and RUN. Previously a year ago they had DEFEND on the first menu system....Obviouly they didn't forget to take the menu system off. So it can't be a simple hack and slash. Otherwise why would they only take the DEFEND menu selection off the first one? Look:

indysurfn2623d ago

Also previously I remember a lot of people saying they would like the Active-Time-Battle system (ATB) Well if you look at the bottom right of the image you will see the ATB gauge on both characters. One is almost full, and one is not. I kinda like that but I also kinda like the way they was all to gather in the GRANDIA series. I will see how it plays out.

rainslacker2622d ago (Edited 2622d ago )

So I haven't watched anything from this for a while, but are they going with some sort of partial turn based system, or is it more like KH, where you it's more action oriented with some commands which can be issued quickly. The menu system they showed in the screen shots weren't much different than the original FFVII, but also seemed kind of like KH.

@Shin

How is SE infamous with ridiculously long development times? FFXV is about the only game I can think of that went into development hell. KH3 they just took a long time to actually get around too, but it seems like it's going fast enough from when they started it.

They're full of jaggies though. At least they're not bullshots!

ninsigma2623d ago

Yeah work still needs to be done on the character models I agree. Looks great other than that though and can't wait to see more. Fingers crossed for e3.

NovusTerminus2623d ago

Since its early development, they are likely running a lower resolution with little to no AA, so its normal for it to look like that

alstruck2623d ago

Agreed, both really look amazing.. somehow the screenshots remind me of vs13 years ago, hoping the 7Remake development doesn't follow and actually releases.

ninsigma2623d ago

They went straight with the unreal engine so that should speed up development times considerably. The custom engine being used 13 and vs 13 was the first stumbling block for vs 13 because they stopped development of the game so they could get the engine fixed for ff 13s release.

Andreas-Sword2623d ago

I think the new gameplay system looks good.

oasdada2623d ago

Still dont understand why theyre using unreal engine instead of the excelent final fantasy XV's luminous engine!

alstruck2623d ago

You do know FF15 was developed from the remains of FF vs13 right? The one that SE never even bother to finish. Even then it took 3+ years to make, and keep in mind that they start with some assets were already done. So I'm glad they choose a common used game engine.

Adrian_v012623d ago

The HUD looks very ugly though, as if this was a PSP game, not PS4.

I really need to know more info on the battle system to feel excited.

Asuka2623d ago

i like the HUD personally =p

2623d ago
SilverClock2623d ago

Geez N4G God forbid someone be even remotely critical towards a game you are looking forward to. Typical. Agree with you Adrian, but without even a release window it will get better I'm sure.

Eonjay2623d ago

Ironic that someone can say it looks fine and you lose your shit.

DarXter2622d ago

Its an agree/ disagree button... So people tend to disagree with his opinion. That does not mean people do not respect his opinion or want to deny his critical remarks...

Sevir2623d ago

The KH3 screenshot is really good

2623d ago
feraldrgn2623d ago

Ok ok ok ok, that first FF7 remake screenshot of the battle system actually looks pretty good, because I can see menus.
Hope it's more of a FF12 approach but improved.

No opinion on KH yet, I've not seen enough.

-Foxtrot2623d ago

I'm wondering though if you press "Attack" will they Auto attack or will be be like Kingdom Hearts where they will hit the target as much as you press the Attack button

Kenshin_BATT0USAI2623d ago

From what it looks like to me, there's gonna be a bit of free running and such, but ultimately you choose attack or whatever in order to attack instead of combos and such like FF15.

Asuka2623d ago

i see materia and an ATB bar. i am happy. xD

MADGameR2623d ago

Looks like cheap scans... Thats not true 1080p HD images. KH3 Looks good. But FFVII Remake on the other hand...I dunno whats up. But I want to see HD video gameplay of it. I don't want to judge the visuals just yet.

Original Final Fantasy 7 - Is it Worth Playing in 2024?

Final Fantasy 7 has come back under the spotlight thanks to the release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, but is it worth replaying the original?

ravens5216d ago

Got to Zacks part in 7 Rebirth. Said f it. Finishing my game in 7 og. Just got to part 2 yesterday. I also got Crisis Core... So it'll be a while before I'm back to Rebirth. I just keep thinking about it too smh, want to get back to playing it. Not till I know Zacks story though. I beat 7 og sooooooo long ago, it's crazy going through it again and remembering things.

MrNinosan16d ago (Edited 16d ago )

Got to Zacks part in Rebirth?
You mean you started the game and turned it off?
The game starts with Zack...

ravens5216d ago

... Really 🤓 lol. His second part, I've played for 80hrs lmao. <---- PS5 Run time, probably not all game time. You guys know how it goes.

VIK212116d ago (Edited 16d ago )

Did you not ever play the OG FF7? After you recruit Vincent, later in the game, disc 3, return to that basement and look at the pod, there's a whole Zack story that'll trigger as a memory.... it's well hidden in the game and a lot of things regarding Zack are cleared up. FF7 Crisis Core is basically an extend feature of that hidden flashback... It took me years to discover it back then lol

MrNinosan16d ago

@ravens52
80 hours in Rebirth by doing everything, and you should've reached Zacks story about 5 times 🤣

ravens5215d ago

Ye I kno that's y I said not all gameplay time. But also I am very anal when it comes to exploring.

ravens5215d ago

Not to mention fighting Titan at his full strength. Hours spent trying still haven't succeeded. Found all 3 ruins but I'ma masochist when it comes to games.

Barlos17d ago

Very much so. Graphically it's dated but the story and the gameplay haven't aged a day. It's still one of my all time favourite RPGs and for me is better than Remake in some ways.

Barlos16d ago (Edited 16d ago )

It always takes me back to Christmas 1997, I got it as a gift and I was blown away when I played it. I couldn't believe games could look that good. The combination of pre rendered backgrounds and FMV really made it stand out. It definitely still has a certain charm that modern games can't replicate.

I can't imagine people will still be talking about Remake and Rebirth in 27 years.

Tapani16d ago

Fully agreed. To me the atmosphere, pacing, gameplay and music are all better than in the remake.

Rebel_Scum16d ago

Yes, play this, skip remake, start rebirth for new players.

I_am_Batman16d ago

Skip Remake? That's terrible advice.

leahcim16d ago

Remake is so amazing, pure FFVII Love, play it on PS5 please! aww the graphics the battles, the music... a dream come true.

Rebel_Scum16d ago (Edited 16d ago )

I disagree Batman

Rise of the ronin sold twice as much as Dragons Dogma 2 this week...but no articles about that. It's only news if a PS exclusive is being outsold.
