One, it was still better than most games at that time. No,it wasn't and that's not what you initially stated. Two, the graphics exceeded the graphics of previous Final Fantasy games. A 32-bit 1.8 GB 5th Gen game should look better than a 16-bit 3MB 4th Gen game. Three, Final Fantasy VII is a bigger world than Resident Evil, meaning they are trying to fit a lot more into the game than Resident Evil was. The fastest Final Fantasy VII speedrun was approximately 8 hours, and the fastest speedrun with 100% completion was approximately 24 hours and 17 minutes. Compare this to Resident Evil where the fastest speedrun was under one hour, and the fastest speedrun with 100% completion was approximately 4 hours. Has nothing to do with a discussion about graphical fidelity. JRPGs in general take longer to complete than Survival Horror games. For the size and scope of this game they were damn good graphics. I'll agree to disagree. |

I miss when FInal Fantasy games weren't about the graphics. They were better games when they relied on the story telling, character development, and gameplay.
