I'm down with that. It would be a lot bigger compared to Ground Zeroes if they included everything up until you leave Midgar.
Guess we'll know everything in a month.

And been completed unimpressed with it, because he's Jeff Gerstmann.
I'm not trying to hate, because giantbomb is still the only video game site I actually watch content for (although tbh, I hate most of GBwest content these days with rare exceptions). However watching and listening to Jeff sometimes just makes me wish he would give up the whole "journalist" thing, because he never does seem impressed by anything. He has more fun playing Mr. Do then any modern game.
Yeah, I was expecting it to be in playable form next time they showed it (and I could see them release it on PSN too) after Kitase said in 2017 he would want that:
I fully expect a blow out at E3 ever since that SoP teaser, but the real dream is that Episode 1 comes out sometime this year. Would be the perfect Christmas game.
I agree. He seems like a really cool guy but not sure games are his thing anymore.
You can almost predict what he's going to say before he says it.
Are you talking about the same Jeff who has been praising MK11 and Apex Legends over the past few months?
Also, FF7 came out in 1997. It's not a modern game and Jeff was never a fan of it.
I love the GB guys, but as a lifelong JRPG fan, that's one genre I just do not look to them for impressions, thoughts, etc on. We just don't agree at all.
I think we can deduce from this that you have not played Final Fantasy 7 Remake, but you have indeed played the Final Fantasy 7 Remake demo.
We'd be lucky if that were the case, rather than it being an Episode Duscae situation that ends up having better combat than the full game.
It was ok....
He was much more impressed by Burger Time on the Atari 2600 classic console 2019 edition.
Please be a 35-40 hours full blown rpg.
What was the dev time? Didnt they reboot development at some point?

Wasn't there a demo for the PSX version that was pretty much this? I vaguely remember it being on a demo disc or available with some other game...
In reality, if they were looking for an opportunity to show off what they have so far then Bombing Mission would be a great way to do it! Can't wait to attack Guard Scorpion when it's tail is up...
Yea the demo was extremely popular, I remember it was the only reason people bought that shitty Tobal No. 1 game. I think it was on one of the PS1 mag demo discs too.
Between the long ass wait and the nostalgia/hype factor, Square is practically required to recreate that demo beat for beat
You'll be able to finish the game on ps4. You just need to buy a ps5 for the sequels.
SE need to show a full episode release schedule or you can look forward to 'can't wait to finish this game in 2029' jokes in their place.
Of course there will be a playable demo... part 1 is totally Q1 2020.
Meanwhile it's pathetic how some are still insisting that the "episodes" are only few hours long or they are in 7 parts when SE stated officially that each part it's like FFXIII trilogy a full sized game... but again in every single new thread related to the project we gotta have these none funny annoying posts.

We have only just recently gotten over the "game is canceled" posts, give it time. Baby steps.
The making jokes about this project will never stop because I guess some finds it funnt?
It be always something else to be extremely pessimistic about.
Well yeah, it's going to be at E3. We get a little too hyperbolic when pretending it will never come out.
About a week before the most recent trailer, I was listening to a recent podcast where someone said that we would see this game for another 5 years and I thought "that comment wont age well in a year". Didn't last a week.
I completely believe this.
I'm leaning towards it even being a "get invited to SE's behind closed door demo for a guided walkthrough" type thing if the demo is long enough.
I expect it to play like Crisis Core but with the crazy animations possible from XV's engine.

This hits too close to home.
Methinks this willnot & cannot be an actual full fedged FF.
When did she get promoted to Editor in Chief over there?
Good for her. She's fantastic, and has been so since the 1up days.
Congratulations Kat.

This will not be a like for like remake.
I expect way more story elements to be put into part 1 that probably weren't present in the original.
Include it with Deus Ex: The Adam Jensen Collection. #SaveDeusEx
I'm calling it we will see a PS4PRO bundle and have it launched with PS5.
Yes Midgar was greatly expanded in Crisis Core and Dirge of Cerberus, I expect we will get all the way up until the end of the Kalm flashback in part 1. They will add new areas to Midgar, expand upon others, Wall Market will surely be way bigger, Shinra Tower will be much bigger, etc etc
By the time all the parts are out, your friend might not be that far off base.
They said years ago already that each part will be its own full-sized game a la the FFXIII trilogy.
It's been in development since around 2014, originally developed externally by CyberConnect2, but in early 2017 they announced that the project was brought in-house. Regardless how much they actually scrapped after that, they will still have had over 3 years of full in-house development if it releases in early 2020 presumably. That should be enough for the first part, especially with an already finished, mature engine like UE4 that several SE teams now have had experience with (KH3, DQXI, Octopath etc.). Who knows how much they simultaneously have been working on the other parts too.
Right.
The truth is we know very little concrete details about this game's actual production. Based on similarities I see between the PSX '15 'gameplay' (*cough*concept) trailer and the SoP trailer, I wouldn't be surprise if SE salvaged some of CC2's groundwork and just continued from there, as opposed to a total scrap/restart.
This game is much further along than most suspect, I think.
