my friend is trying to figure out if this game has gone from timed exclusive (play first on ps4 on the remake reveal trailer) into a ps4 exclusive, based on the new trailer?

[#Phonepunk#]

The most incredible news! I love all the new trailers and stuff! This is gonna be cool

 

[Aggelos]

 

[shark sandwich]

This conversation is getting out of control. Can we please split this off into a few other new Final Fantasy VII threads?

 

[Mochilador]

Probably still timed. No exclusive label on the box.

 

[HaveButOneLife]

Finally they show my girl Tifa!

IMO this may be exclusive, if not timed exclusive but still a "console exclusive" game.

 

[greyshark]

My favorite game growing up - if this truly is just part one, does that mean part two is on PS5? I wonder how they’ll handle that release.

 

[gamergirly]

Sweet, one of my favourite rpgs of all time. Lets see

 

[mejin]

it is just timed.

 

[PhilipDoesMatter]

My question is: is it episodic in the end or not?

 

[Ragnaroz]

It is episodic.

 

[Wink]

Alright, I was wrong about the combat. It looks much more promising than I hoped for after XV.

 

[Aggelos]

Live reactions from the audience

 

[Ferdimage]

My gosh imaging the reaction when we see a Summon! Im sure we will see at least one before the game is released.

 

[Kagero]

Gotta do some Tifa fan art for all the likes now. BRB

 

[Verdanth]

Is this going to be action rpg or turned based RPG? Because there are instances that looks action, and others turn based.

 

[greyshark]

Action RPG. They give you the chance to slow things down at times to mimic turn based but I imagine the core gameplay will be like an action RPG.

 

[shark sandwich]

Watch the videos in post 2. Looks like you move/attack/dodge in real time, but you can use ATB to freeze the action and select spells/abilities to use. You can also switch characters with 1 button press.

Famitsu reports that what Producer Kitase spoke about was one separate software unit (i.e. a Blu-Ray, since PS4 games are on Blu-Rays) that is equivalent of 2 BD discs volume-wise. .
And they apologize to everyone for the misunderstanding that it caused.

”Blu-ray2枚”と記載していましたが、正しくは“Blu-ray2枚相当のボリューム”でした。読者並びに関係者の皆様にご迷惑をおかけしたことをお詫びいたします。

They Removed the 2BD discs.

On the other hand, the NA Square-Enix Press release, still mentions 2 BD discs

This is so weird. So both Kitase and the press release were "misunderstood"? I can understand why the former could, but then why would this information echo in the product advertising?

 

[MagiusNecros]

FFVII : Type 0

Pretty much.

 

[mortal]

Some rather interesting new little embellishments and flavoring on the character models for Remake. Tifa's gauntlets are especially interesting. Futhark runes?

have no idea what is going on, but I'm sure we'll get a clarification on it soon.
Both cases can't be valid. It's either door number one or door number two

A) One trilayer (BD-66) or quadrilayer BD (BD-100)

B) two dual-layer BDs (of 50GB space each)

 

[Yumi]

You get the option to turn on "tactical mode" after building up meter from basic attacks. This slow down time and allows you to issue commands. Its looks to be optional though cause you can assign hot keys for meter actions like magic and limit breaks if you want a more action experience.

 

[D.Final]

The details are so realistic, that they seem even beyond the ultra realism.
Impressive

 

[E-Cat]

Hoolyy shit that music from 2:02 is ace! It's a new track, definitely sounds like Uematsu (?!) Brings to mind an amalgamation of FF7 & Lost Odyssey.

 

[off duty ninja]

This game looks to be shaping up great but what is with the completely terrible and illegible marketing? Everywhere I look I'm seeing this announced as "Final Fantasy VII Remake" releases March 2020. The pics of the different editions all state you get the "Full Game" etc.

Is there any real information anywhere on how this game is going to be released? I see folks saying it is still episodic in which case this marketing makes zero sense.

 

[Dunki]

Ok This is just incredible they nailed EVERYTHING and I think they even accomplished it that people are not pissed at Tifa' new design.

OMG I never was a fan of FVII after CD1 but boy this is the most hyped i ever was of a E3 demo. I wachted this now like 20 times with different streams and their reaction and I could watch it another 20 times today.....

Phsyical release of Part 1 will ship with 2 blu-rays worth of game content. Part 1 is apparently going to be set in an entirely expanded Midgar with the final act culminating in departing from Midgar. I hope that Midgar is going to be a dense sandbox city.

They're adding new story beats, writing new scenarios and expand on character arcs etc. Avalanche members for example, are getting more lines more and screen time. I love Remake Jessie personally, and well done Roberto Ferrari with these redesigns. She seems to have more of a connection with Cloud relative to than in the 1997 version.

 

[Exentryk]

Downgrade is real!

I like the idea of spending more time building these characters before jumping into things. This is the only FF game that I have ever finished and I really loved the game and the time of my life that I played it.

I just really wish they would be more clear and direct with their vision and release plans. It seems like they aren't even sure of themselves at this point.

 

[mortal]

Downgrade is real!

Joking? The new build makes Midgar look way bigger and lived in. Better atmosphere too, imo

 

[Exentryk]

No. The graphics just look rough to me in the current build. Not talking about the world size and atmosphere.

 

[Teletraan1]

The gameplay demo kind of got me excited although the boss fight looked a bit bullet spongey for my tastes. I liked how there were different stages to the battle. This moved from never to maybe if they put it on PC for me.

 

[Fuz]

Massive boobs reduction, as expected.


P.S.

Fuck you, nomura.

 

[HaveButOneLife]

it is just timed.

Then that needs to be proven. If it's timed then it's console exclusive, if comes to Xbox One then cool.

 

[Sub_Level]

God damn its nice to play a JRPG as adults and not effeminate teenagers for once.

 

[Aggelos]

Famitsu gives us gameplay footage without any commentary and audience screams.
Plus you can hear the new isolated score. What a boon from Famitsu
Mind blowing music

The soundtrack will be of an exceptional level
(exactly like every Final Fantasy, from Final Fantasy I to Final Fantasy XV)

Hello mates!
I think it's a stupid question but my last console was the PS2... I am interested in the FFVII and I'm waiting for the PS5. Do you think that when the new console comes out will come a PS5 version of the game with better visual quality? I don't know if the companies today do this with intergenerational games. I don't know whether to reserve the special version of PS4 or wait.

Thanks!

SE has already talked about a cross gen version.
