This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

fuck sony and their deal to keep this from pc for now and from xbox forever...

I agree. My copy came yesterday and the PS5 is really holding this game back. The PC version can't come soon enough. It also stinks that the first PC version will almost certainly end up being on Epic before steam.

Square is super inconsistent with this stuff, that it's pretty hard to tell what's going to be an Epic Exclusive and what's not. I do hope there's not going to be a second exclusivity period, before it's coming to Steam though.

It sure sounds like the money spent on those deals makes less and less sense, so I'll bet we see less of them going forward. Already the exclusivity period for this game is down to only about 3 months.

Playing the game now. It's a lot of fun, some good changes but some negative changes from Remake. The open world portions are just gorgeous. The ubisoft towers and icons are kinda lame but it's not just a scourge on the map so to speak. The sidequests have been pretty fun, and the soundtrack is awesome.

Storywise, it follows largely the same beats as the original with some changeups to the formula (I haven't beaten it yet so I expect some wild changes @ the end like last time.). Gameplay is pretty neat but I preferred FF16's DMC style combat.

All in all I wouldn't buy it at $70, but at $50 it is well worth it

Can someone tell me in which order I should play the games? I’m really confused with all the titles

[–] simple@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Final Fantasy VII Remake --> Crisis Core (this is optional but provides more context) --> Final Fantasy VII Rebirth.

[–] piyuv@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Thanks, is the crisis core remake or original? Also where does remake intergrade fit in?

[–] simple@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

remake or original crisis core doesn't really matter, they're the same thing. I forgot about Intergrade, it's a DLC after final fantasy 7 remake but it really is more like filler than anything useful.
