Pausing a mash-to-succeed battle to explain your in-battle slot machine system, followed by a long chart with N permutations and their rewards, is a frightening way to start an 'action' game. #CrisisCore#ShareYourGames#FinalFantasy7
I've never played a Final Fantasy game & precious few RPG in general. My gaming background is mostly classic Nintendo fare from SNES through to Switch, & in PS4/5 mostly action games like Last of Us, God of War, Horizon, Tsushima etc.
So should I go "back to the start" & play the original FFVII eg on Switch/PS, or just start my Final Fantasy journey with "Remake Intergrade" on PS5. I guess I'm mostly in it for the story?
@by_tor why start with any newer Final Fantasy game when Baldur's Gate 3 exists if you want an RPG? FF is now an action game... I don't hate them but not much RPG there.
@NinjaYeti76 it's not so much that I want an RPG. It's that I was interested in the story, narrative and characters from FFVII as I had heard much praise for them, and wondered what the best option to experience this would be.
For a long time making a game with the breath and freedom of a traditional JRPG in a modern style seemed impossible. The fact that Square seems to be promising a 4K version of Final Fantasy 7 is amazing to me. If I can jump into the Tiny Bronco and float around the world map in 4K…. It’d be a dream come true. #SquareEnix#finalfantasy#finalfantasy7
