Sweet thanks for the explanations. Keep in mind you can expand materia slots on your weapon through the SP gains and stuff too, so I imagine the options will open up later.
I'd like to add too that I have very little reason to trust anyone involved with the game saying that it's the size of a full game, that kind of statement is incredibly vague and people have very different standards for what a "full game" even is. Just because it's long doesn't mean that it was "full of content" or just cause there's a lot to do doesn't mean that it's worth doing. Opinions and all that.
Because I usually find exact that Materia two seconds later. I mean... it's maybe useful if you want to give everyone a full set of elemental magic but I literally have 5 sets of Lightning orbs and I am not even through the game…
Yes, I've fought a few bosses already! I think they get "easier" because you get more variety and the Asses Materia also helps a lot. Giving your chars different elements is key BUT I would say some bosses have a very similar scheme to the Scorpion Sentinel?
Buddy of mine and I were just talking about exactly this and we kind of figured that maybe the whole Jenova acting as Sephiroth would be retconned and it just is Sephiroth now. I wouldn't be surprised if SE did this given his popularity. We were not thrilled with this potential outcome lol.
Oh now that I think about it, are there weapons and stuff that affect materia level gains like in the original? Like double or no gains of Materia levels?
I believe there was only one or two in the original run of Midgar I guess, so it's fair that they might save those for when you have more materia in part 2.
I was wondering this, too. Having to decide between raw stat boosts, number of materia slots or possible extra AP growth was one of my favorite things about FFVII's weapon balance.
.....I'm pretty sure that's not how it worked.
I haven't found it but it might be the one I missed (I should be able to go back soon... I hope).
He literally pushes Cloud to get him the Black Materia in the original game, so he can destroy the planet...? It's a lot clearer that he is fucking things up than it was in the OG, in which he had like 2 lines.
That sounds good to me. I can't wait to see what kinds of abilities/perks some of the top tier weapons have.
Well first off I'm not talking about just the remake I'm pretty sure that's how it was in the original.
I think the [my] biggest problem is execution. I accept Sephiroth will show up early, and maybe even frequently, but I'd prefer if it were done in a way that paid respects to the tension created by the original. I think it was Nojima who said that Seph's gradual reveal was inspired by Jaws; it was supposed to instil an oppressive sense of dread. But since they've abandoned the gradual reveal outright, why not invoke the same sense by playing up the elements of psychological horror?
This isn't gonna be contained. If enough people are uploading and streaming it they're gonna give up altogether. They also don't have a date on their streaming guidelines.
I think you underestimate how easily Twitch and the bigger sites can mass takedown streams, especially when they're all tagged lol.
Tbh I think Persona 5 counts at this point, production values notwithstanding. But I'd rather not hear a rant about how Ryuji is such an idiot it ruins your immersion.
Want? Sure. Do it succesfully? Who knows. If SE really gets a stick up their ass about it they can clamp down hard.
