Its amazing
Fans spent years hammering them about how they could make bank giving the fans of FF7 everything they clamored for
The monkey paw that FF7 expanded content has turned into not once... but twice over is just incredible to me.
I get there is an audience eating this up and loving everything they have put out but man..

BUT ITS GACHA, they killed my boy /s
Yeah, if it's opera omnia people here will actually be surprised how friendly it is. Hell opera omnia had the pleasure of being the superior dissidia game that released that year. (Against the console dissidia)
I was wondering if they'd work gacha in somehow or make it a paid game like XV Pocket Edition. Gacha games can be fine in practice, though I don't like the industry's turn toward them in general. Hopefully Square will balance it so that the game's playable without the rarest gacha stuff.
Lmao at people being suprised by this. There was obviously gonna be some some sort of gacha. No way is square doing a"remake" of the whole compilation, on mobile, and not doing something similar to what they're already doing with Dissidia.
Party isn't locked to story. You can use Aerith to fight gaurd scorpion
There's no reason to believe that it won't be similar to how Opera Omnia is than it will be just fine.
I don't want to pull for weapons, but that's a personal preference. Materia just makes so much more sense than grab bag weapons.
No I mean true evil route, materia is pre set and random in weapons, so you could get a ssr wep with blizzard or the same with fire and cant swap.
Grinding and padding up the wazoo like every f2p gacha game that will make the original games look like abridged versions.
Yeah...no, thank you very much.

Yeah, makes sense, I only played OO for a few minutes, myself lol.
Also, a fully translated version of the interview:
It's not just weapon skins, but costumes as well!
Real talk, I'm fine with this.
Only because if you look at Square's non-gacha mobile offerings, you'll see they're often OVERPRICED as all hell. I was actually anticipating they would make each game 20 dollars on its own - or worse, pay 5 dollars per chapter.
It's easy to be f2p with some mobile games, especially since this isn't pvp.
Also glad I don't have to play First Soldier, since it will be covered in Ever Crisis. Not sure about the fact that there's new content not in the original games, though...

Damn shame. When I thought of a Final Fantasy VII remake (years before the reveal), this is what I envisioned. I would have bought the game if it looked like this all the way through.
These visuals are such a cocktease, because I want the original game in this style. Remake is pretty much a different game and I love it, but a more "classic" remake can also exist next to it.
If it plays like Opera Omnia then I'll be ok. I haven't felt like I HAD to spend money on the gacha stuff. I never played Before Crisis or Crisis Core so playing their stories for free will be fine.
Well, this isn't true for most gachas. For example in DQ Tact you can complete the story mode without spending money on units. I'm going to guess this game will be the same.
So I am pretty sure this is how this will work.
There will be Events and Combat sections.
Events will be basically the most important story segments that you can play with any team and equipment. No "in-between" stuff.
Combat will be various battles, bosses and other crazy crap (like bosses from other FF games).
Gacha shop for weapons, costumes (Santa Tifa lol) and crazy characters (Sephiroth or Marlene in your party).

If its like opera omnia, costumes will be pay for only (with whatever currency they use) and will generally cost $20 and up.
If you think about it we all have Gacha systems within us. For example will you get the bitchy me or the bitchy me? Pay to find out
I didn't spend any money on FEH to compete it. It gave away enough free orbs and characters to beat it.
I only spent money when there were characters I wanted.
"Free" games need some way to make money. Hopefully fairly balanced, if you have to pay to get thr right weapon to beat it, then it would be a problem.
It's still possible, considering the Switch has a few gacha mobile game ports (and I think Genshin Impact is coming too? I've been playing it on PC and while the rates are apparently really bad, the game itself seems pretty fair to free players). They ported XV Pocket Edition, too, or they could spruce it up like they did Kingdom Hearts re:Coded.
I wouldn't hold out hope, but it's not unheard of.
There's an edit with him being credited as an "Ultima troll"
I got you, fam.
Dissidia is like the best gâcha there is so im not worried it has been more than doable as a f2p player
Hopefully they'll release a premium version with no gacha once all the chapters are out.
Really have no interest in gacha, but I gotta play this since it'll include lots of new VII canon stuff.

I am genuinely stunned anyone expected this to be not the case, especially from a Japanese developer?
We're how many years into gacha games at this point? They're not going away.
I'm actually really glad it's a weapon gacha and not a character one. I couldn't give a damn about getting w/e weapons as long as I have the characters I'd want.
Same with story content.

I'm the type of guy that don't get anal over SD-style characters in town/dungeon/overworld areas. I wouldn't have minded a FFVII remake like this, quality SD-style models, higher quality pre-rendered backgrounds, but have battles be featured in highly detailed HD 3D graphics with full-sized character/enemy models. I'm probably in the minority, though, as everybody wants everything as 3D and realistic-looking as possible. People look at a FF game and ponder how realistic and cool looking the visuals are going to be, I'm looking at a FF game (like FFXVI) and wondering how FULL an experience will the game be. How hearty of an adventure, how grand of a world will be presented? Graphics are fine, but give me something WORTHWHILE. It might be asking for too much...Damn shame. When I thought of a Final Fantasy VII remake (years before the reveal), this is what I envisioned. I would have bought the game if it looked like this all the way through.
...nah, it isn't asking for too much.
Nailed it. I hate to break it to you, but that's what SE is in business to do. You don't aim to break even, you aim to make a profit. For me, that means I get to experience the game for free. And even if I splurge, that means that in my lifetime I'll spend on this entire game what you were hoping a single episode would cost.
I really like Omnia, been playing it on and off forever and keep meaning to drop some money on it but I never have a reason too haha. I'm still sad about Ever Crisis though I was really hoping for a chapter based buy to play rpg but it seems like it's just going to be cut down far more than I'd like.
I was up for buying chapters, but it's free with lootboxes? Bet they make even more money with this model, oh well.
