Yesterday the "best game ever" for some arrived to my house and I started playing but since I didnt have a PS memory card it couldnt save but I bought one today and now I´m at the shinra headquarters on the floor 64 with Cloud lvl 13, Tifa lvl 11 and Barret lvl 11 until now it has been pretty good but it didnt wow me at first like FF6 did but is pretty good in its own rights
PD: What part is considered the best of FF7?
|
Did you also play FF6 for the first time just recently? 'cause I take it when you mean FF6 "wowed" you, that must have been some long time ago, or am I wrong? Believe me FF7 for its time, had a LOT more "wow" going for it than FF6 did in its year.
|
Oh really? I played both within less than 1 year difference between them back in those days, and FFVII didn't have half the "wow" effect that FFVI. Alas, FFVI's "wow" factor in the world of balance alone tops everything in FFVII, to me. Different people have different tastes.
|
Then you are indeed in the minority, 'cause FFVII was the one that made RPGs big in the western world, and not without good reason. It literally WOWED gamers. FF1-FF6 not so much.
|
I really don't care if i'm in the minority nor in the majority of what people think. Neither me nor you have the right to question anyone about how each game felt to themselves. If FFVI wowed me more than FFVII, it's my own personal choice, no one has the right to say if it's wrong or right.
I don't discredit the impact of FFVII in the overall RPG panorama, it was pretty big, but to me, it wasn't close to the impact that FFVI had.
|
Ok, great. So? It doesn't change the facts. FF7 was bigger and it wowed gamers more, I wasn't even talking to you and I'm not questioning your taste, like whatever you may like that's fine by me.
|
What does that have to do with you coming into the thread and almost nearly implying to MANUELF that it was somewhat wrong to be more Wowed by FFVI than FFVII?
As I said, I've got nothing against FFVII being the most popular FF, it was your initial reply that had no right to be so in the first place.
|
you read whatever you wanted in my reply, whatever I "implied" is in your own prejudiced imagination. I haven't even stated one game is "better" than other or whatever. But I presented hard evidence one game did indeed break the barriers for the JRPG genre to western audiences, take that as you will, I'm tired of arguing with you.

Thankfully words don't just disappear, now do they? I never said that one game is better than the other either, so please, do practice what you preach about your "prejudiced imagination". You're evidence is that sales = more people wowed. I never discredited that, now did I?
What I found perplexing was the fact that you felt the need to call out to the "fact" that, just because FFVII wowed more people, somehow he had to play FFVI a long time ago, thus implying that Nostalgia was the biggest factor for the reason why he was more wowed by FFVI than FFVII. Now, I know you're going to fall back to the same "prejudiced imagination" concept that you've thrown, which is a shame in fact.
Oh well, I guess some things are the way they are.
