Anyone else shocked there was no frame drops really at all even with all the particle effects and especially when Ifrit came out? The team really got a command of UE4 huh?

New Final Fantasy VII Remake gameplay featuring Tifa, Ifrit and a Boss fight.
- Thread starter The Last One
- Start date
I'd bet this demo is Pro but I have seen many videos of people talking about their impressions of the demo they played and they said the visuals were super good and they were playing on a base PS4.
Very nice~
I'm very impressed with the battle theme, but given how much experience has orchestrating songs from earlier games due to their Distant Worlds concert series I'm not surprised that this is an amazing rendition.
They've long since shown that music, its in the initial Scorpion Sentinel gameplay reveal trailer.
Hilariously, Aps is one of the first (possibly the actual first) uses of the boss battle theme in FFVII.
This game looks really impressive. I fear fans' expectations might be too high, almost. :P
Dunno about no playable Red XIII, but I also feel like it's gonna be an intensely linear experience as far as structure goes.

Boss theme plays in the first fight against the sentinel. What I'm trying to wrap my head around is if the Mako Reactor music is dynamic and goes into a different version when Cloud & Barret engages enemies.
I don't mind if it's linear tbh. I don't actually think it will be but the orignal game was linear.
I mean I know the midgar section of FF7 was linear, but this seems like it will be vastly expanded. Hopefully in the next reveal they will show a little bit more about the scope of the world. I understand it is hard to imagine this being a massive interconnected city for this generation, given the visuals and production values on display.
humanoid soldiers seem to react, but not bigger monsters it seems. Also depends on moves I think
Thanks for that, though it's a bit lame.
You'd think they'd just hire face models for motion capture from different nationalities if they were serious. Don't see why they had to make Ashe Japanese for the Japanese audience.
Hmm that's make it an even odder choice then.
Prestige title, enormousness budget/development time and focus on only 2 hardware specs base PS4/Pro.
They wouldnt be showing the game off before its perfect, they knew expectations were crazy high.
The tender love and care that they're putting into my favorite game of all time is just flooring me.
This menu is probably the only thing I'm disappointed in so far besides the Zell/Gladio soldier baby. It'd be nice if they refine it or at least throw some classic menu sounds in. /nitpicks
Hasn't everything been shown on Pro on events like this for like 3 years now?
I don't care though, this will be played on PS5, unless a miracle happens and it comes to PC. I already know my launch PS4 won't survive this, Kratos nearly killed it last year and this looks like 10 times more impressive.
I feel like the long fights are caused at least partially by them being more concerned about explaining systems thoroughly than showing off the game at its best. Just notice how much time they spend with full ATB bars for the characters they're not controlling.
Regular attacks are supposed to be a means to the end of spending ATB, and if you're not regularly doing that with everyone, you're missing on dealing a ton of damage.
That's why there's the L2/R2 shortcuts to assigning commands without having to actually switch to that character, because you're supposed to be doing that even when you don't want to directly control them.
How long does summons stay in the fights? Seems liked Ifrit stayed there until the boss died. I expected something like 15 secs maybe.
Also, damn the boss fights are going to be ridiculously long huh?
That boss music and animation though. <3 The graphics almost look next-gen.

the menu showed 1 hour and 8 minutes, As they got to the scorpion boss. Could this mean that the intro after the train CGI cinematic and the fights after + cutscenes take about an hour before you even reach that first boss ? If so, the reactor sequence could go upward to 2+ hours ? .
I wonder how this is going to fare among people who have never played the original.
Ill say its my favorite GOAT but thats because It was the first time playing something like it back in the day.
Either way Im in and this looks way beyond my expectations.

I feel bad for Ubisoft because they're launching Watch Dogs 3 on the same day if you order a specific edition / 3 days after FFVIIR releases for the rest. And yeah yeah, I know "it's so different sales will be fine", except this is the third game in a series which had a bad first release and a great second release and the other is a highly demanded remake of one of the most popular games.
You can only summon in boss battle/ mini-boss like hard fights.
Watch Dogs will be fine. PC and Xbox aren't getting FF7 at release and Ps4 has enough install base for two big games.
The same thing was said with Spider-Man and Shadow of the Tomb Raider aha
is this gonna be Square Enix's best game ever?
it looks pretty much perfect in every way, and we already know how good the source material is.

But Midgar was aways linear, the game just opens after Midgar, 100% that ll be linear like the original gamem a little more open but the overall ll be linear, no surprises here
How are you all coming to this conclusion?
We've literally only seen gameplay upto the scorpion boss so far, in the original game this was literally about five corridors and a few flights of stairs and an elevator - why assume the remake is needlessly linear? So far it's very much faithful to the original flow, and you can bet that Midgar will be very much expansive and largely free to roam with side quests etc as they're making a whole damn game out of it.
JFC
