No it looked bad. Those blocky lego character models in the main world looked worse than a SNES game. Go play Crono Trigger and compare the two. FF7 was an ugly game. Its biggest short cut was its pre-rendered backgrounds which if you are saying that looks good well each to there own. Im no fan of Pre-rendered visiuals. Id much rather full 3D or a good art style than just a low res video playing in the background. Anyway i am a huge fan of FF7 and it drew me in with its compelling story. Its visusls is Some thing that definilty hasnt aged well and it explains why it needs a remake. |
You talk as if you experienced the game a decade after its release. Back then, it was praised for most everything it brought (graphics, music, cut-scenes, story, characters, you name it).
It got surpassed fast, sure. But most people agreed it was a great looking game when it came out.
