So obviously the best game ever is getting a remake (FFVII just so we are clear about that :P), and I was wondering how many were going to buy it ect.
Also, what do you hope for in the remake? I have a list:
Battle system like FFX-2 fast but still turn based.
This guy are sick.
Optional costume for Barret (sailor suit) Cloud (drag) and Tifa (Advent Children).
I could probably think of more but right not my brain is to hyped to think of any more.
It's the reason I want to get a PlayStation 4.
I'd like some alternate costumes, too, but apart from that I haven't thought a great deal about what I hope to see. I'm just glad the game is being made.
Abso-smurfing-lutely.
Unless it turns out to be the worst thing ever made how could I not buy this? I also hope that we keep similar mechanics to the original. I mean, if they made it a spectacular action RPG that could still be good, but I would be a touch disappointed.
As long as it's a true remake and they don't smurf with it by putting in ridiculous different battle systems and stuff.
yep
Yes, I will buy it for sure!
Absolutely!
If it's gonna be release on PC... to be precise Steam... I will... But not on day 1... gonna wait for sale... (I learn it the hard way for pre-purchasing game on Steam...)
If it's not going to be release on PC... then... well can't... of course... :D
Will Genesis be shoehorned in and given even more of that plot focus that he never deserved in the first place?
Will they change something and piss off a ton of fanboys?
Will they leave something as it is and piss off a ton of fanboys?
Will Cloud dress up as Lightning during the Corneo scene?
With the bathhouse scene be retained and if so will today's obviously homophobic gaming audience criticise it?
Apologies, but when I saw the announcement I felt compelled to come here and post something to this effect, because I'm convinced the answer to all of those questions is yes.
Yes, certainly. Even if it turns out to be a total butchering, FF7 is important enough to me that I need to see it with my own eyes.
I'm actually genuinely hoping this is what'll happen.Quote:

I've been waiting for this for over a decade, I hope SE doesn't screw it up!!!!
Yes, I will! But I also hope they do a battle system like FFX-2, because I don't want to play an action game.
It may be the first game I actually buy on the first day. I really don't do 'first day purchases', but this may break that.
Honey Bee Inn
Crossdressing Cloud in general
Bear in a marshmallow Sailor Suit Barret
Cloud riding a dolphin
Fully voiced "Stop acting like a retard and climb"
Cid in general
Finding out whether Ester is a drag queen, a robot, or what
Both Choco/Mog summons
Yeah, I'm buying it.
I don't think there is any way that this game will please the masses because everyone will be hoping for their own perfect version of FFVII, some of them will want this remake dramatically different than others. I'm expecting Compilation of VII kind of reactions to any minor change whatsoever.
Personally, I'm open to whatever and will happily pre-order.
Oh man... so many people still know her as 'Aeris'.Quote:

Yeah. This is actually a good remake for me because I like it, but I don't like it enough that I'm afraid of touching it in case they ruin it for me. But it probably won't be a day 1 purchase as we very rarely buy anything day 1 and I dun even know if we'll have a PS4 by then! Maybe
Admittedly pronunciations of things are probably going to be right up there with the "this ruins the game" stuff fans will come out with. And I hate the name "Aerith", I much prefer Aeris. But I will get over such things. FFVII the original will always be the most canon version of the game for me, this is just a tribute. That's the outlook I have which will get me past that kinda stuff. :DQuote:

I will be buying it. I may even love it this time around. But i'll probably pass on the inevitable collector's edition.
Unless it comes with a Tifa body pillow.

Actually, about the remake. Will they have voice-acting? If so, who would they use?
Could you TRY to speak human :pQuote:

I will probably be willing to get a PS4 for this.
crap, clicked the wrong option when voting, someone change it to the day 1 one xD
Who the hell voted no?
I would murder you all and scale a small mountain of your corpses to get this game.
I'm going to wait to see if they mess it up. If they just update graphics, TAKE MY GIL! If they mess with what made the game what it was... I'll pass and plug in the PS2.
FFVII was the first game I ever owned on PS, it's gonna be the first game I own on PS4. Like the circle of life (stream)
I'll buy it on day 1 (if I live that long).
it wasn't the first game I owned, but it was the first RPG that I owned.Quote:

when cloud does omnislash they're just gonna play that advent children clip
Hey, just stopping in to say that I will be buying this game.
Yes.
1000 times, yes.
At a low enough price, sure. How low this price needs to be depends on how well they do it, and how much fun they remove from it.
I own Final Fantasy VII 7 times.
2x First Edition German
1x Platinum Edition German
1x PC
1x PC Steam
1x First Edition American
1x First Edition Japanese
With the Remake I will own it 9 times.
Why would you buy it twice
Japanese and German, of course.
That's certainly not an "of course" :p
For a guy who already owns it 7 times, yes it is.
I'm likely gonna be a day one purchase, if only for the goodies they may package, probably even a collector's edition. Then even if it sucks, I'll have a plush moogle or some garbage, and can just say I helped pay them back for the effort, and then go enjoy the original. But I doubt it will be unplayable. And for some reason I'm with BoB in that the changes wouldn't really bother me. It's been so long. And I love the original as it is. This will be more like an alternate reality version if they change too much. I'd play it for what it is, out of curiosity, and let that be it. But I'll probably criticise it for what it is as well. Its not going to get a free pass, but I will definitely try it with an open mind
I mean, I gotta see stuff happen ma girl Aerith get stabbed in full 1080p 60fps somehow. Or better yet... in 4k if it ended up on PC.
During the hype I voted for hell yes without any question, though now that the hype is faded down, I'm going to wait and see if there's any changes that just make me downright say uh-uh, no. Changes to the battle system is a biggie. I'm a old school grandma jrpg fan who likes things turn-based, or get offa the lawn.
* pokes walking stick at you *
Yes, you bastards.Quote:

Nah, I'll give it a miss.
My vote was "because it was funny." I haven't bought a video game in a year (my parents got me a Wii on a special occasion, mostly because my mom wanted to play Mii games. She didn't know you have to buy them separately), the Force Unleashed was all right, but the other games I bought were just stupid buys.
I don't own a PS Vita (my PSP screen is broken, I still have to replace it), a Wii U, an XBOX 360, a PS3, or an XBOX One. I will buy a PS4 solely to own and play the FF7 Remake. I will wait until 7 is released before buying the PS4. That, at least, gives me two years to save up.
I'll be buying it no matter what.
As someone who has pretty much completely stopped playing video games I am not going to buy a ps4 just for this game. I will watch a playthrough on youtube though and perhaps buy it if it is released on ps3.
They are not going to release the remake on inferior technology. It'll go to the NX, the XBOX ONE, and the Sega Dracomax (yes, Ifirmlybelieve Sega will have a console again).
Well guess I will definitely be youtubing it then. When I can easily go months without even turning my ps3 on there is little point in buying a new system.
I watched a playthrough of Last of Us on youtube and got just as much enjoyment out of doing that as I would have if I were playing it (infact probably more enjoyment because I never liked shooters to begin with).
Yeah, a new ps3 game in 2017 is never gonna happen.
This saddens me! You should totally have played that game instead of watching it.Quote:

They could tweek it a bit by letting you switch characters in battle & it'd be alright. I hope they don't go for what they're doing in XV, making you stuck as Cloud for the whole game. I really don't want it to be an action RPG, or anything of that ilk either.Quote:

Priority 1: No changes in the story. Don't add anything that wasn't already in the original. And don't take anything out.
Priority 2: The feel of the game must be there, otherwise the game will have been a worthless vessel that the original was stuffed into that I will under-appreciate.
Battle-system and stuff like that is important, but I will be able to live with the game as long as they don't diminish the first two priorities.
(Lol idk what thread I was supposed to post this in, but....YES i will buy it)
Of course I'll buy it. I've been waiting for it for a long time now.
this is a remake im going to hype about so much that i HAVE and WILL buy on the first day of release

Yup. Day one. Even if it sucks I'm going to experience it on day one.
The mark of a true fanboy :3
