FF7 remake being released as a "Multi part series"
This may come as a blow to fans if this means the whole story of VII won't be available immediately. The announcement has yet to be properly clarifled.

I wholeheartedly agree. One thing to bare in mind though:
Comparing an FFIV remake to an FFVII remake, is like comparing the complexity and immense size of a Particle Accelerator to a kids fake phone with a sticker for numbers.
So I think we all have reasons to be affraid of this.
Some great news (imo) on the remake being multiple full games in the ffxiii vein, I had assumed it was going to be like this and today my fears have gone, I'm more stoked for this now, cant wait.I understand people being miffed at the announcement however is this definitely episodic in a telltale way? I mean could this not end up episodic in a ffxiii or mass effect way.
Do Japanese games come episodic? What are some examples we could base our predictions on.
Well square Enix has made hitman which is episodic so I wouldn't rule episodic out for ffviiSome great news (imo) on the remake being multiple full games in the ffxiii vein, I had assumed it was going to be like this and today my fears have gone, I'm more stoked for this now, cant wait.
It's been confirmed that ffvii remake will be full length games comparable to ffxiii or a traditional series of games, great newsWell square Enix has made hitman which is episodic so I wouldn't rule episodic out for ffvii
Something being comparable to FF13 is great news?It's been confirmed that ffvii remake will be full length games comparable to ffxiii or a traditional series of games, great news
Comparable as in a series of full length games that tell one cohesive story so yes better to be comparable to ffxiii than to be comparable to the latest hitman imo.Something being comparable to FF13 is great news?
Marginally less cynically I wonder where the story breaks would come,and being spun out into full episodes. It would be a kick in the teeth but leaving midgar could be a place to end an episode, next... Cloud and the lifestream or somewhere around there? The final being the last part?
Blu-ray now so 30gig something like that (guessing could be more/less) but definitely many times larger than a dvd, ofc texture size, sound quality, video definition etc etc will all be many times larger as well so I'm guessing trilogy based on originals discs but that's more from a pacing perspective, if they made 5 games say there are many other logical 'cliff hanger' moments in the original they could use to end a 'game'I have not bought a ps4 yet (planning to buy ff7rmk bundle if possible) but has the capacity of a single dvd changed over the last few years? From what I see in FFXV for CE. That game is a single disc with the 2nd disc being the movie disc? So, considering that, trilogy looks possible.
Bluray is 50gb dual layer.Blu-ray now so 30gig something like that (guessing could be more/less) but definitely many times larger than a dvd, ofc texture size, sound quality, video definition etc etc will all be many times larger as well so I'm guessing trilogy based on originals discs but that's more from a pacing perspective, if they made 5 games say there are many other logical 'cliff hanger' moments in the original they could use to end a 'game'
There's gotta be some great turn based rpg's about right now surely, I think I played a demo of Bravely recently that seemed pretty awesome, loved bludragon and pg4 too and I bet there's some awesome ones that aren't widely known, someone will know some you just have to dig for them a bit more these days.Bluray is 50gb dual layer.
But anyway, this game is an action rpg, which means I'm not interested, I really am waiting for the next great turn based rpg like the final fantasies of old
What makes me worried is that the only content they've shown is from the first 2 hours or so of the original. No Shinra Building, no slums, etc. They said they were "closer to release than you think" but I guess they meant closer in Square Enix terms.Something being comparable to FF13 is great news?

Don't bump old threads!At least we are getting ff7...they could still stiff us and say NOPE!, we change our minds....
Don't bump old threads!
Dude, of course you can argument more about 11 pages of the telltale version of ff7. It's absolutelly vital for the life.
I already make a choice and will wait to watch it as a movie.
Just relax and watch kingsglave ff xv.Okay I'm not able to tell if your comment is sarcasm or not or if it is encouragement (I'm terrible at social cues...). Wouldn't advent children already be that movie? On the other, look, if you guys don't want this thread to breath life again a mod should lock it; I'll stop posting and it'll be regulated into the dustbin of history. Should make everyone happy. I don't mean offense to anyone, I just thought the topic was interesting...
