What this guy didn't tell you, is that he removed the first 40 seconds of this clip In it, I talk about how many in the FF7 Remake fandom treat people who criticize this game I include screencaps of FF7R fans who've: 1) Told me to kill myself 2) Threatened to kill me 3) Wished death upon me 4) Called for others to kill me This has been going on for a year straight Maybe I'm being cynical, but I think the reason he removed that part is because it shows I am talking about the fandom - not Square Enix FF7R fans are the ones who spread the lie that I never played the original game, among other things. You can see them doing it in the comment section of his very post. It's not "my" game, but I did play it. But it's my fault for letting that annoy me. I am being cringe in this clip. I could have worded it better. This was recorded Live. I'm not always word-perfect The sad thing is, the part he removed proves what I said. A lot of people do not want to criticize FF7R. Why? Because if you do, there are people in this fandom who will become a never-ending problem in your life. Like him Since he removed the death threats from this clip, I've attached them to this tweet. They're in the Replies below They are not a pleasant read. But they show you how many people in this fandom react when you criticize FF7R There have been more, but unfortunately I only started saving them recently. You can imagine how many there have been in total @nafeasonto , I don't want to be your enemy. I am asking you to leave me alone
Okay, this is a WOAH moment for me. “You don’t get to rewrite my history. EVER.” Bro, you are not a martyr for Final Fantasy VII. And “YOUR history”? YOUR history? It is not your history in any way, shape, or form. You played a video game that meant a lot to you. So did millions of other people. You do not own the interpretation of it, you do not own its legacy, and disagreement with you is not somebody “rewriting your history.” That level of personal identification with a game is exactly why this whole thing has gotten so extreme. ALSO, the fact that you KEEP taking jabs at Maximilian Dood is not only childish, but completely unnecessary, especially when you keep taking him out of context. Bro, you are becoming a FANATIC yourself.

Some melodies aren’t just meant to be heard, they can be experienced visually, too. Pachelbel’s “Canon in D” offers a captivating blend of music and visual beauty.

Imagine starting with the 3rd movie of Stars Wars, The Matrix or Lord of the Rings Imagine starting with the final season of Breaking Bad, The Sopranos or Attack On Titan Imagine starting with Mass Effect 3, Final Fantasy X-2 or Lightning Returns (FF13-3) You can. But if you do, you’ll have no idea what’s happening in the story
FINAL FANTASY VII REVELATION has been designed as a standalone experience, so players can jump in and enjoy it even if it’s their first entry in the trilogy. That’s a philosophy we’ve maintained throughout the series. That said, because this is the conclusion to the trilogy, I truly hope players will experience REMAKE and REBIRTH before starting REVELATION. We now offer a great-value Trilogy Pack, and the in-game boost features make it easier than ever to focus on the story and catch up on the journey. I hope many fans will join us on April 8 and experience the conclusion of this long journey together. - 『FINAL FANTASY VII REVELATION』は、本作からプレイしていただいても楽しめるように作っています。これはこれまでのシリーズ作品と変わらない考え方です。ただ、完結作だからこそ、ぜひ『REMAKE』『REBIRTH』をプレイした上で体験していただきたいと思っています。
現在はお得なトリロジーパックもありますし、ストーリーを快適に楽しめるブースト機能も用意しています。ぜひ4月8日、多くのゲームファンの皆さんと一緒に、この長い旅の完結を迎えられたらうれしいです。 #FF7R

3 people have already made the same “I started Star Wars on Ep 4” joke. Yes, thank you for that 💀 But you know what I mean 🫵

This entire FF7 remake trilogy will go down as one of the most misguided, messy, bloated nightmares that completely missed the mark in almost every instance in the history of the medium of video games.

Fortnite Fantasy 7 💩
Final Fantasy 7 Revelation director Naoki Hamaguchi has confirmed that Fortnite partly inspired how the party jumps from the Highwind. The Highwind will be a major part of the game, letting players fly around the world and choose where they want to land. Instead of simply appearing at their destination like in the original FF7, the party will jump from the airship and skydive down to the map. Asked about the Fortnite comparison, Hamaguchi said: “We did get a bit of inspiration from Fortnite, [we] won’t lie about that.” The “Where we droppin’?” memes were close to the truth.

The perception of FF7 back then vs. The perception of FF7 today:
Through FFVII REVELATION, I wanted to push perceptions of FFVII and the FINAL FANTASY series itself one step further. My goal was to create a game that would be recognized not only as a JRPG, but also as a world-class open-world action-adventure RPG. To me, this is not simply the conclusion of the FFVII Remake trilogy. It is also a challenge toward the future of FINAL FANTASY. - 『FFVII REVELATION』を通じて、FFVII、そしてFINAL FANTASYシリーズそのものの見られ方を一歩先へ進めたいと考えていました。JRPGとしてだけでなく、グローバルで通用するオープンワールド・アクションアドベンチャーRPGとして評価される作品を目指しました。 それは単にFFVIIリメイクシリーズの完結ではなく、FINAL FANTASYの未来への挑戦だと考えています。 #FF7R
