I don't really like the way the playstation version looked.Plus there was no talking.

First of all, yes in comparison to graphics nowadays, the graphics are not that great, but they were then (mainly the cutscenes). You have probably heard the saying 'Don't judge a book by its cover' well this can be implemented to games, 'Don't judge a game by how pretty it is'. If a re-make was made (which i doubt would happen) then they wouldn't need to add talking, personally i would prefer to make my own judgement on the personality of a character by what is said rather then how something is said and IF a re-make was ever made with voiceovers and prettier graphics then they best make sure that there is a non-voiceover option where the text is still displayed without some american voice actor telling me he just wants the money from blowing up a reactor before he leaves(no offence to americans in general, i just get sick of hearing a boistrous american shout about something in a game, time and time again). In advent children, fair enough voices were neccessary. IMO a re-make is not needed, so a re-make with voiceovers is definitly not needed. Anyway if it was remade on the same level as X then we would have to put up with more fanboys/girls from another generation, which we do not need.

I can imagine it now, 'ooooh, Final fantasy VII(re-make) is so great, the graphics are superb, they are this and that, hmmm, i never played the original because the graphics were not very good, this story is brilliant though, if it had graphics like this then, i would have definitely got it. I am so shallow minded, graphics are everything to me, etc, etc' i think you all get the picture.

Peace

I agree that you should not judge a videogame by how pretty it is, however ff7 was very poorly for its time. Just take a look at Tomb Raider 2 that was realised the same year. Ff7's FMV were poor looking too and again i give as example Tomb Raider 2.

I dont even know the end of DoC but i think Square almost always leave something unanswered or something that in the future can be made as a new videogame.

For example when you beat Necron in ff9 he says "Its not over. Im immortal as far as there is life ad death", this strange speaking can be an "excuse" if someday they want to make a new game based on ff9. (just an ex)

The only reason they did the remake of the opening for FFVII was to show people how good the graphics for PS3 would be.

The reason they did FFVII was because it was a much loved game and most people would know the previous graphics for the game, so they could compare.

The problem with this is it tricked the people who don't read into things (i.e me) to believing that there was actually a remake.

But as Magneto42 said, it could happen.

So you never know.

Advent Children was originally going to be a twenty minute movie, until the fan base became so incredibly huge that Tetsuya Nomura decided to make it a feature length movie.

I'm sure there's some remake fan base forming out there somewhere.

Or, a petition of some sort. :P

Back on topic of a VII remake... dont be too hasty to rule it out. At E3 or something when they were promoting DoC, Tetsuya Nomura was asked about a remake and he said that they would love to make one if they could find the time (at the time he was really busy with dirge of cerberus and kingdom hearts 2). So just know that they aren't like "we wont do that!", they just have so much stuff lined up that if they do do it, it probably wont be very soon.

Joey

From experience of living as a human being, when someone says, "If I could only find the time." It usually means that they would want to but they are not, because simply for SE it would take too long and they have too many games in process to throw onto the back burner.

So if they did, it would be way long into the future.

10-08-2006, 06:16 PM
Don't underestimate how important those images are. The graphics are the player's only link to the game, so they have to effectively represent what's going on to keep the player up to speed. Poor graphics are most certainly detrimental, no matter what type of game it is.

10-08-2006, 06:42 PM
Would you prefer that I specified that they were the only *substantial* link? I figured that would be a pointless waste of text and would add nothing to the point.

There are two factors that can link a player to a game: graphics and sound. Sound is secondary, as it's almost completely useless without the accompanying visual images. The game can, on the other hand, function without sound. Therefore, graphics are the only necessary link.

Kie
10-09-2006, 07:54 AM
Ah Prak, the only main voice against FFVII here. Undoubtedly when you first played FFVII (ie- 4-6 years after VI was released, like any real judge of the game would have done), you thought it was one of the revelations of gaming, like everyone else did. Then you got bored with it after a few years and then started getting annoyed that newbies loved it more than your favourite FF game, so you persist in convincing everyone here that it's the worst game in history, which we all know is untrue. It isn't even the worst Final Fantasy game, so keep your opinions, but let others have their own too.

Prak
10-09-2006, 01:38 PM
Kie, I generally find you inoffensive, so it's a bit sad to see you making baseless assumptions. For your information, I played FFVII a few years after it came out (I was perfectly capable of looking at it objectively and not holding it to the standards of newer games, mind you) and mostly enjoyed it when I played it, but by the end, I was just wanting it to be over already for reasons I've made pretty clear.

I also never claimed that it was the worst game in history, and I've seldom said anything more severe than pointing out that it was merely mediocre, as well as one of the weakest games in the series. And besides that, I've never tried to convince people that they shouldn't like it.

Now, as much as it pains me to say this since I generally don't have any problems with you... Fuck off.

I find it quite humorous that the person who hasn't been here two weeks is telling Prak, who's been here for over two years, what to do.

Hey, buddy?

You dunno the situation, so don't try to insult me.

And I had an old acount I deleted, had it since 2004.

Bullshit. Users can't delete accounts and an admin would only do it if you had never posted before, and then only as part of a larger purge.

It doesn't. Some people who've been here for years are still regarded as retards. Others have been respected since day one. It's all in how you present yourself.

There are two factors that can link a player to a game: graphics and sound. Sound is secondary, as it's almost completely useless without the accompanying visual images. The game can, on the other hand, function without sound. Therefore, graphics are the only necessary link.

Back on topic...i dont agree with this, i think gameplay is an element aswell, i agree with clu, the game kicks ass (opinion) because the gameplay is so great and i think thats why it has such a huge fanbase, not because it was a first for SE

e.g i think the materia based system rules, some of the characters can be a bit rough around the edges, but it wouldnt really be ff7 without them now would it?

Gameplay is not an element that links a player to the events on screen. It is the method by which they interact. As that interaction is reliant on the player being properly aware of what's going on in the game, it is a subordinate element in context of my point.


i agree with clu, the game kicks ass (opinion) because the gameplay is so great and i think thats why it has such a huge fanbase, not because it was a first for SE

The gameplay is not particularly great, actually. Yours is a biased perception that would not be universally shared, especially among those who care more about gameplay than other factors, myself included. Examples of failings in the gameplay:

1. The menus are less responsive than they should be.
2. Many of the standard sorting and switching options were not present in the materia system, making management unnecessarily complicated.
3. Combat is extremely repetitious, not relying nearly as heavily on tactics as the previous games in the series. You can play through almost the entire thing using nothing but physical attacks. What's the point of having a variety of options if you never have to use any of them?
4. Movement in certain areas is downright retarded. Press up on the control pad to go left on the screen? Puh-leeze.


e.g i think the materia based system rules,

You think... Alas, this is not proof that something is good. It is merely proof that you like it. When I look at the materia system, I see a fatally flawed gameplay element that nullifies the usefulness of 2/3 of your party members because none of them have a specific role they play. Since any of your favorite three characters can be adapted to any role, there's never a need to use the others. They're simply wasted.


some of the characters can be a bit rough around the edges, but it wouldnt really be ff7 without them now would it?

Silly question. Of course it would be FFVII. The game is what it is, and could have been any number of things. If anything was done differently, the name would still be there.

For the record, I was just being a smartass there.

In that statement, you imply that you find imperfections to be endearing. That's perfectly fine. However, the imperfections/flaws are still there and should be recognized accordingly. Even if you like it, it's still something that's fundamentally wrong with the game.

Mr Jack
10-10-2006, 02:31 PM
fair enough,

though i'd like to think that all of that could be implemented into making a sequal.

(though i am dead against an FFVII sequal - mainly because how much they could just kill it - and before you say it no they havent already killed it!!)

What i mean is IF they were to make a sequal, using todays standards as a guide, improving on graphics, and sound quality and possibly also the quality of the gameplay - (though why!?!) - Would you buy it?

Prak
10-10-2006, 02:34 PM
No.

I gave them a fair chance with Advent Children to prove that they cared about making up for their failings. Instead of making up for them though, they simply added onto the pile, taking advantage of the ignorance of their fans to rake in the cash from a cheaply made product. Because of that, as well as the shitty quality of DoC, I will never try anything with the FFVII label on it again.

Mr Jack
10-10-2006, 02:43 PM

Ah, a mature bashing, quite a refreshment from the usual trifle that I accept and move on with on other boards. I was merely expressing my opinion but perhaps a PM, as Clu pointed out, would have been the best way to express this. I apologise for accusing you of trying to make others dislike it, I just feel that your over-involvement in any FF7 thread seems to constantly point out flaws in the game, and the only purpose I can see for that is trying to convince others that the game is bad. If this wasn't your intention then, as I said, I apologise, Prak :)

it appears i am going to add a very important info i didnt know about,

this topic i made after seeing the secret ending of Dirge Of Cerberus, where "G" his true name is GENESIS as some of the bord memebres here said.

it apears SEPHIROTH and GENESIS KNOW EACH OTHER....not also that, there is a nother person...a 3rd one, the only defferance that his win g is WHITE and not black the same for those 2.

the all share the same thing...all of them are a ! winged ANGEL.

square complicated the story and added a lot of new characters,
2 of them are this "G" Genesis and the newly ANGEAL ...he was zacks mentor, who he later gives him clouyd buster sword.

this info's are from Before crisis and Crisis core trailers i found from another site.

it appears that FFVII and Advent Children were about sephiroth, and Dirge of cerebrus and Crisis core about Genesis, and Angeal will play a role beside ZACK in it.

before crisis is a compilation of history.

here is the original poster of what he wrote:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Deep Ground Soldier (DGS, Deepground in the US version) is not the same organization as SOLDIER. They draw a distinct line in the spelling, in the game. However, DGS IS an offshoot of SOLDIER.

That said, there is no real indication of what awoke "G", or even that the "brother" he was speaking to was Weiss at all. It's been proposed that G is speaking to Sephiroth, and intends to use Weiss' body as a host for him. It's all up in the air, and will likely remain that way until "EC" gets announced.

Until then, here's what we do know about Genesis and company, from Crisis Core. First, Genesis was friends with Sephiroth and Angeal, or at least, they seemed to be, and they all appear to be 1st Class.

In the newest trailer, Genesis reveals that he "kept being betrayed by 2 people", ever since he left "that house". He also calls Tseng and Zack dogs of Shinra, so he clearly doesn't much like them anymore. Zack and Tseng were apparantly issued an order to "capture or destroy" G, and originally, Sephiroth was supposed to be the one assigned, not Zack.

Angeal also has two white wings on his right side, and also asks Zack to join him and fight those who torment the Planet -- it could be a hint that Angeal was the founder of AVALANCHE. Rumor has it that he'll die in his battle against Genesis...

At any rate, there is one large, glaring connection between Angeal, Genesis, and Sephiroth, and that's the one-winged angel aspect they all share (though, Angeal has two... XD).

Anyway, it seems that FFVII and AC were about Sephiroth, while CC and DC are about Genesis. BC acts as a sort of history for the past of the Compilation... It seems that the conclusion, if it's ever made, will tie everything together and finish the "Crisis".
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

in conclusion, there is a HIGH possibilty now for a FFVII-2 or in a new name .

as genesis...is still alive.

Let's get back to the topic. Emerald Weapon is harder, by far. My method that works for Ruby, I'm not sure if it works with Emerald.

Equip a ribbon.
Mastered Magic Counter paired with Mime.
Knights of the Round Paired with HP absorb.
Killed the 2 party members who haven't equipped this.

When the battle starts, Ruby can't remove 2 of your party members like usual because they will be dead. It will just bury its claws intstead. The Ribbon will stop it from giving you annoying effects. Just cast KotR and do nothing. Every time Ruby attacks you will counter with mime, aka KotR and gain over 9999 health. It just shows as "36" and "45" It's that high.

equip tetra elemental (morph cactaurs), use dazers, it's more fun and you can use the weakest weapons and no materia to beat him...just use them on his hands when he sticks 'em in the ground, then phoenix down your remaining party, constantly attack his hands and use dazers when the effect starts to wear off, repeat
the reason for tetra elemental and not ribbon is because his ruby flame will heal you considerably

FFVII DoC continues the story after FFVII AdvC, the important thing in it, square revield a new character , and has a one winged, the opposite of sephiroth, the names 'G', thats what made this topic as there is no possibilities for a remake, instead the story continues [square made it like this ] and it turns compilicated after revileing FFVII Crisis core [the game on the psp] trailer,
that "G" name is GENESIS, and it appears not only Sephiroth and Genesis to have one wing....but a 3rd one to name Angeal.[this game event is before the actuall FFVII]

you can go in Crisis core thread in here to see details,

its more sopporting that there will be a new FFVII in the future, for Genesis is still alive.
untill crisis core is reliesed, we might learn more.

Im not sure why they made DoC, most likely for the money, not publicity, but if they did make another compilation to the series, they must go back to cloud and make him the main character again. Not to be rude or anything, but i didn't like Vincent that much, not cause he wasnt a good character, i just didn't. When i played FF7 and beat it, all my character were around 95+ and vincent was like 20. I didn't use him at all because i didn't think he fit to the story, but others have doubts. Anyway this is what i feel they should do. Not only because mainly everyone likes cloud, but because he's a better character :).

But then again, im not sure if they should make a compilation. I think they pretty much milked FF7 dry, with all the compilations. Move on to another game, and stop fussing about FF7.

Although it would be nice to have FF7 remake, because yes the graphics were pretty bad on the playstation consol. But i think mainly everyone who likes FF7 would by it, just to see what the graphics look like.
