Let's fucking go!
I feel like they're gonna add the crisis core stuff and so new side missions to flesh it out.The game is not 60 hours... so unless they're adding in an additional 20 hours of content to the base game, even that seems unlikely.
I'm playing it as we speak and I'll be done at ~40hrs, and I bred a Golden chocobo and did chocobo racing.
Yes it is. And no not like the Telltale games. They will be much longer, but the release between episodes will more than likely be longer as well.wtf, is this really gonna be Episodic? like short Telltale games?
These arguements dont even make sense. If anything a remake should take less time. You already have the story, characters and everything else. Youre just redoing and reimagining the combat system and visuals. Its hilarious how people are acting like this is the biggest undertaking ever in video games. Sure ff7 is a big game. But so are many other games. Its episodic for one reason, cause square cant put out a large game in any sort of reasonable timeframe.1. The original game was a product of a different time. Assets were far simpler to produce, and games didn't have the fidelity that games do now. I'm not trying to downplay FFVII's accomplishments, but making a large scale game back then was easier than it is now.
2. What other remakes are re-imagining a game with the scope and scale of FFVII, with full, modern production values this high and revamped gameplay systems? FFVII was a massive game, and translating the breadth of the content within to match modern standards is a massive undertaking. The only realistic way we get FFVII Remake in a single package is if they slash half the content, which no one wants, including the developers.
3. After CyberConnect 2 was dropped and everything was moved in-house at Square, everything we've heard since indicates that production has gone smoothly. Going by Nomura's recent comment, they appear to have release date in sight, then that means that they'll also likely have the tools and pipeline ready to go for the other episodes going forward.
I think having some trepidation over how things will pan out is understandable, and I think it's even okay to be dissapointed that it's not a single release. That's how I would personally prefer it, even, but considering what they're tasked with, I think going episodic is absolutely the right call.
That and they want to charge you $60 3 separate timesThese arguements dont even make sense. If anything a remake should take less time. You already have the story, characters and everything else.

All of those things are actually huge, I don't understand why you think it isn't.These arguements dont even make sense. If anything a remake should take less time.

Can I just say I'm loving all these Hot Fuzz gifs, keep em coming everyone.
Just remake the game lollllThese arguements dont even make sense. If anything a remake should take less time. You already have the story, characters and everything else.

SE NEVER said episodes... it's the stupid internet.wtf, is this really gonna be Episodic? like short Telltale games?
SO because they didn't show anything outside Midgar it means it will take place only in Midgar?Man... Is the entirety of the first episode going to take place in Midgar?
We haven't seen any footage of the game outside of Midgar. That's a bit disconcerting to me.
Again never said Episodes.. always said parts like a trilogy, but hey it's always nice to exaggerate the nativity when it comes to FFVIIR news.waiting for the deluxe version all 6 episode on the PS7
Episode 1 - PS4
Episode 2 - 3 - PS5
Episode 4 - 6 - PS6
ALL 6 episodes deluxe version - PS7 launch title.
And again people are forgetting how small % of the story and events takes place in Midgar.My guess for Episode 1 is it ends when the party leaves Midgar.
- Introduce Midgar and characters.
- Shinra is the final setting
-ends with the bike chase.
There seems to be some kind of disconnect where everytime "episodic" is repeated people think 3 hour Telltale episodes and not full length games like they said from the beginning.
My point is it isnt anymore than any other game. Ita actually less when you consider they have the entire story done before the game even needs to start being made. Unlike most other games that need to be written from scratch. The fact that people think it needs to be episodic to release is dumb. Like i said square is doing this cause they cant release games in a decent timeframe, not because this is some abnornally large game thats some huge undertaking.All of those things are actually huge, I don't understand why you think it isn't.

I never expected them to change that decision. I just want to know how many parts it will be split into, and where they will cut it.

I love how you dodge the Witcher lol, also Cyberpunk was announced, but didnt go into full productions till the last Witcher expansions. And (here the kicker) It will be a full game. I'd wager cyberpunk + expansions will be done before all FF7 episodes released. Stop Staning SE bruh, its not that big of a deal.
SE NEVER said episodes... it's the stupid internet.
They said parts as FFXIII trilogy each in size.
SO because they didn't show anything outside Midgar it means it will take place only in Midgar?
What a logic...

More like Part 1 ends on the ship leaving first continent.
Disappointing. Will each episode at least be cheaper than a normal retail game?
That's the main thing.
FF7 isn't as big as some people are letting on, i think i clocked in at under 40 hours on my last playthrough with doing a lot of the side stuff. Plus ya know, witcher 3 was fine as one, huge game.
I think it's either episode or like FFVII compilation but remade.
Episode 1 till Aerith's death (cliffhanger!) and Episode 2 for the rest.
Or
FFVII full game, then Advent Children game, then Crisis Core game.
I learned my lesson with XV.. that said they did Jessie real good.
^^^^^towns aren't gonna look like this and take 10 seconds to move from end to end.
any comparison to the original games length is stupid when this game is gonna structurally be completely different
