    Chocobo So... how many of you replayed the original?

    With the remake out, I figured a few people either checked out the original before the remakes release or perhaps you're replaying it now if you've finished the Remake to do a compare and contrast. Maybe you don't have access to the remake and just decided to play the original anyway just to take advantage of all the hype?

    I started a playthrough on the Steam version the weekend before the Remake release to refresh my memory of the Midgar section. Got to just after the Kalm flashback in around 5 hours 30 mins at which the game crashed when I plugged something into the USB port xD

    I bought FF7 on Switch for a replay.

    Might replay the original after playing through FFXII: ZA however FFXII has become the perfect quarantine game, so we'll see.

    Yeah, ran through it a few months ago in preparation. Aerith still died at the end of disc 1. Been taking my sweet time with FFVIIR though, still only on chapter 4. Literally walking round every environment, taking it all in.

    I will probably replay the remake a second time after I finish my first playthrough, but after that, I will probably replay the original because I'm already excited for the next parts.

    I'm very tempted to play through at least the Midgar section, just to help connect all the little details.

    They see me rolling. They hating, patrolling.

    I've been considering a replay, but I think I'll wait until the New Threat mod hits 2.0 before I do.

    I started replaying it last night. My Remake replay was up to the pillar. So I played OG up to the Pillar then went back and played Remake to the end. I just beat Motorball in the OG an hour ago.

    Edit: I've been binging OG to: suggest random monsters that will become boss battles in the sequel, highlight moments and items I expect to see in Part 2, and see which areas and questions may end up omitted from the final product.

    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    If Demolition Man were remade today

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.

    I've been replaying it. Definitely suggest anyone replaying to do it on PC and make sure to use the Remako mod. Backgrounds look so much better with AI upscaling! Currently working on huge materia quests.

    I started but I have a lot of games I'm in the middle of and it's also only on my PS3 right now which is a bit more inconvenient to play. They recently put it on sale on PS4 and I'm debating buying and restarting considering I only got a couple hours in.

    I'm replaying it right now. Just started disc 2.
