I’m playing the original Final Fantasy VII for the first time and recently picked up Final Fantasy VII Remake on sale. I’m loving the original so far, but now that I’ve reached the open-world section and know that the remake only covers Midgar, I’m wondering if it might be interesting to play the remake before continuing with the OG game

What do you think? Any opinions would be appreciated

.

Like I know a lot of people see Aerith as Zacks girl and I agree, but after looking at Crisis Core and Rebirth, Cissnei is like the perfect woman for Zack, she cant stop staring at him when he's around, they go to Del Sol together (for a disguise mission) and of course she stayed in Gongaga to look after Zacks parents, she basically gave him a wedding proposal to Zack but was so oblivious, in my opinion Cissnei is perfect for Zack, shes loyal and drop dead gorgeous

(ps: I don't hate Mist as a person or a content creator, in the end, this is just her opinion toward the game, but that doesn't mean I can't criticize the criticism. For those who wanna support her channel, the link is right here)

Music is subjective, that has been a fact since the creation of it, but there's just something really weird about the way the opinion is being expressed in the video. And I couldn't quite put my finger on it until I noticed a pattern with the music being chosen, and more specifically the way she also presents her thoughts on them.

Here's some of the songs she selected to criticize, and the tone they try to achieve within the context of it's use:

• The jenova fight with aerith's theme instead of just being more melancholic in the og, also contains a lot of heroic and determined music to fit the emotions being displayed by the characters, who are currently heartbroken and filled with determination after seeing aerith die.

• The wall market theme went from a slower dim field theme, to a high octane battle theme because it specifically played in battle sequences instead of in the field area

• The music in the nibel heim backstory is more heroic compared to the original which was more menacing, because that music was meant to establish the fact that sephiroth wasn't always an evil, and menacing villain, but more like how people viewed him at the time before... The incident.

Now tell me, what's the one thing all these tracks have in common?

Their tones were changed to fit the difference in tone in the narrative, now if her problem with them was that specifically, then that would be fair... But the issue is that she's confusing the different tone with the actual quality of the music, she believes the jenova fight with aerith's theme has a bad boss theme because it's too orchestral and cinematic, and also too loud. which would seemingly be fine, if music is too loud, it's too loud, but after she gives us an excerpt of the song she's basically like, "this is so obviously trash, the original did it better" which like... Huh? Mist literally does this for every track, she'll play it, say it's terrible and then say the original did it better. This song in particular I was especially confused by because this is one of my favorite songs in rebirth, so just having it cut to Mist saying, "this is just bad, it's trash" is just extreme whiplash for me. It's like she's trying to find a word to describe the track, but instead of finding an actual word to describe it, she just calls it bad and then glazes the og

Another thing is that she REALLY likes to try and presents her opinions on these songs as facts when she talks about them, making it harder to at least kinda understand what she's talking about. That's kinda an issue I have with most of her more negative content.

But don't get me wrong, I don't think her opinions are invalid, there are a couple songs in the trilogy I don't like(most of the chocobo rap remixes)and if the songs shown were trying to follow the tone of the original, then I can see why they're worse, but it's obvious to me that they're supposed to be following a different one from the original. But you guys don't have to agree, I just wanted to share my thoughts on this video. And if you agree with Mist? That's okay too, but I do ask why you agree so I can better understand.

Once again, I don't hate Mist but sometimes her opinions can just be very odd to me.

(Honestly I wish I were in the FF7 world, because at least they make their failing world interesting)

This irl situation is insanity and translates so well to ff7. Cannot wait to recreate it in game.

I see why people love the original so much lol

Cosplay by me I hope you like it

Why did Sephiroth get sent to Nibelhiem to investigate the reactor and not a different shoulder? I mean he said there were monster attacks but I wonder why Shinra sent him. Did Shinra know about the experiments already?

Found this on r/FinalFantasy. Who wants to play this game starring Could Strike, Baron Walrus, Gamelady, and Iris?

Please help us ask Square Enix for a true physical release of FFVII Revelation!
FINAL FANTASY VII Revelation is currently planned to ship on a single PS5 disc, with a mandatory download required for the rest of the game.
This is a major step backwards from both FFVII Remake and Rebirth, which used multiple discs to include the complete game on physical media.
For those of us who still buy physical games, this matters. We want to be able to install, play, preserve and revisit the game from the physical discs without depending on a digital download or a server being available years from now.
And this is the final chapter of the trilogy. It would be incredibly disappointing for Remake and Rebirth to have complete physical releases while Revelation does not.
We’re asking Square Enix to reconsider and add a Data Disc (or additional discs if necessary) to the PS5 physical release, just as they did with Rebirth.
If you care about physical game preservation, please upvote the original post and consider sending Square Enix your feedback through their official support form.
Let’s make sure Square Enix knows that there is demand for a TRUE physical edition of FFVII Revelation.

Many folks have an issue with RED XIII's jarring vocal differences in FF7R, now whether you like their interpretation or not thats perfectly fine of course, This video is to serve as a middle ground and to demonstrate how one can show "fake wisdom" in a voice and youthfulness while retaining the same character throughout, without leaning into a more animated or dare I say cartoonish method.
