Eh... it seems like they're milking this big time. 60 bucks for up to midgar, 60 to the temple of the ancients, and 60 to the end?

Might also be that they incorporate all the side games and/or expand upon things.  They did say that they are going to change up story elements.

I admire your optimism.  I kind of doubt they'd incorporate the side games.  Crisis Core doesn't really mesh well with the rest of FF7, and Dirge even less so.

This is true.  Enough butchering of the story and feel though and I am sure they can find a way to cram it in for maximum profits.



I feel really mixed about this, im going to guess that no game will have the complete world map to explore.

I really wish they remade the game like Capcom remade resident evil 1 that would be my dream remake for FFVII



The more I read about the ff7remake the more it's becoming less and less a remake. SE are trying to put so many twists on it that it just isn't going to be the familiar game we're hoping to play, they're trying to be clever and come up with all these ideas but it's just making it more of something were not asking for.

Add me if you want but let me know youre from this website

Just dont fuck it up SE, and the differences between titles can't be present. I don't want to finish part 1 the start part to only to find the gameplay is way different lol

it doesnt even sound like thats how its going to go either. It sounds like they want to change quite a few things, so there's no guarantee it will even have all the stuff from the original story

Like I said from the start, but many people never bothered to actually read the original interviews where "episodic" was never mentioned. And so missinformation spread like wildfire.

Im not so sure if I understood what he said, but is he implying he will divide FF7 original game(the original story), in multiple parts, but that each part will feel as a game on its own?If thats true it still sucks for me. I want the original story to be told in one game, not it being divided.

But if what he means is that they will expand the story, and FF7, for example, is the first game, then advent child story is the second and so on.Then Im good with it

It's the former. It will be like the hack//G.U series.

Your wish however is impossible. They can't cram everything from the original FF7 into one game with this kind of graphical fidelity. That's why they're making it multi game instead, because they want to include everything.
So your choice is between a FF7 Remake with plenty of cut content. Or a multi game series.

For me, I prefer the latter. It's a very special game to me. And want it to contain as much from the original as possible.
If it was a remake of some other less noteworthy title I'd be fine with cut content, but in this case I want to relive all of it.

Except the original FFVII on PS1 was one game released on multiple discs. Yes, the modern day graphics will eat up a lot more disc space, but the advancements from the regular CD-ROM format of the PS1 era to the Blu-Ray discs of today allow a lot more storage of data, so it more-or-less offsets the graphical differences. 

If CDProjekt RED can fit Witcher 3 on one disc, I don't see why this can't be released on multiple discs.

Well yeah, they never trusted that they'd make their money back on it. Not surprised they want to do all they can to maxamise profit here.



makes me wonder now, will it be 1 installment every year like FF13? or one installment every 6 months or so?

that would suck waiting a year just to continue the story that we all ready know

They cant fit all in one disc(or one physical release if you prefer) just because its FF7?So you mean all the gigantic and awesome games like Witcher 3, Dark Souls 3, and many more that I cant remember now must be small, because they managed to put all in one package.

With all due respect to FF7, but people remember it as something much bigger than the actual FF7 is.They remember it as a game that was a beast for its time and had to have 27 different discs just to fit it all.Its not.FF7 was revolutionary,yes, but in terms of size and "game scope", it was also on par with the other big ones at the time.It was epic, but the PS1 managed to run it.

What I mean is, all this talk of "FF7R needs multiple launches(or full-size games) to be able to realize its true vision,because its too big" its a pure lie.Simple as that.The graphics can be awe-dropping and all, but if SE really wanted, they could fit it all in one CD.There are really great looking games out there, with gigantic worlds, and yet they manage to fit all in one game.FF7 is not special.It is a excellent game, but its still a game.FF15 is one game, that probably is going to last 50-60 hours.Why cant FF7R be the same?And if budget is the issue, that this title would require an investment that would be too high for one game, look no further than Destiny.That game had 500 million dollars budget, for gods sake!And managed to make a gigantic profit, being a new IP.

This whole multi-disc aproach has another name:money grabbing.SE is(unfortunaly) just being a company, and as all companies, they want money.And they know that FF7R will sell no matter what they do.Even if they made DLCs(EA style) for the game people would buy in droves.
