FFVII did not really revolutionize anything that we have not seen in other FF games on the SNES.  This is an undeniable FACT.  It is however, still a fantastic game.

Thats how I see it at least.  It had nothing to do with people being able to praise FFVII.  It deserves praise.  I just found it funny when you pointed out excerpts from reviews and said they were more important with the score.  So I decided to make a jest.  Thats all.

That made me laugh pretty hard.

"FFVII did not really revolutionize anything that we have not seen in other FF games on the SNES"

FF7:
-went from 2D sprites and tile backgrounds to 3D characters and impressive, artistic and highly detailed pre-rendered backgrounds
-basically ushered in FMV storytelling during key scenes. FF7 is responsible in large part for the cinematic storytelling road the industry has traveled down for AAA games since
-the music made a similar leap, with a huge, sweeping orchestral soundtrack
-became the blueprint for RPGs and cinematic story focused games to follow

Something else revolutionary: Final Fantasy VII is the first game to allow you to play through a flashback, only for that flashback to turn out to be completely wrong.

The best dungeon

The best piece of music

Best summon: Knights of the Round
