I'm also done with the main story now. It took 52 hours in total. I've also decided to give the side content a try.
As mentioned before, the experience was a lot more enjoyable for myself after I started skipping all optional content.
The story seemed at it's best when it stuck to the original FFVII script. It does drag on a bit at times, but on the whole the story was well done, especially in the areas where it matters.
I won't give anything away about the ending, but I did have to switch off my brain a little bit. Like Remake, it's a bit awkward having a hype finale of sorts in what is ultimately part way through the story, but there were some moments in that final chapter that I did really enjoy.
