Maybe THE hero will return... :/ I hope they don't. This will ruin the character like kojima did with big boss post mgs3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it's actually Lucretia (and Vincent probably the dad, himself not knowing Sephiroth is his son maybe, lucretia needs to make it clear to everyone), I mean they should at the least make Sephiroth understand that somehow and then have him chose a path.

Many believe Sephiroth is actually Vincent and Lucretia's lovechild. Besides Hojo was an a**hole from day 1, it's hard to believe Lucy would marry him. Theory being she hid this from Vincent and everyone else, only she and Hojo knowing the truth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shreyans Gupta Posted September 11, 2023 Report Share Posted September 11, 2023 After completing FF16 I now want to play FF7, have heard a lot of good things about it with the majority calling the 7th part the best in the series. I hope I enjoy it as much as 16. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both are good, IMO. But I don't get the idea of calling one better than the other, when they're such different genre-wise. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roun90 Posted September 13, 2023 Report Share Posted September 13, 2023 (edited) Frankly I disagree. There are some areas where 7R does better and some where 16 does better. 7R was set in exactly 1 city, with almost linear map. 16 had an entire World to explore - like a good FF ought to have, with proper Chocobo riding as well. (Note: I mean 7R, not the Original FF7). The story of FF7R was also much more convoluted and confusing if you didn't know the story of FF7 itself first. The Boss Battles of 16 were way, way better than anything any recent FF - including 7R could give. The Lore, World Building and side quest quality (2nd half side quests only) blow FF7R out of the water completely. Main story is far more darker and emotional than 7R. Won't say anything about music because it's subjective or graphics because FF16 is a PS5 only game while 7R is a PS4 game at heart By 7R I mean Remake only - not Rebirth That said there are some areas where 7R blows 16 out of the water. The combat is really fun and with a full party with comppetely varied gameplay styles unlike FF16. Materia Management is great.There are actual mini-games that are fun. Overall, it's a mixed bag. But frankly, if I were given the choice of another 7 Remake or 16 - I would choose 16. That's because 16 did something new and finally went over-the-top that FF Games were known for. The mind-blown, jaw on the floor feeling that was there with OG FFs in the early eras - that I got with FF16 - but not with FF7R, 13 or 15 Edited September 13, 2023 by roun90 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, FF games were always about exceptional world building and a party put in dilemma/ difficult situations. And cutting edge graphics and best music in industry. Most people compare FF16 to God of War 3 instead of previous good Final Fantasy games. Just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You spend a lot of time with the characters- even the side quest characters. Emotional Payoff comes for all characters as their stories concludes - and in a 40+ hour game - it takes time to reach the end of their story. It's not something you'll find in a YouTube Walk-through Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the impalement, it could be only one cutscene (like the beach event) and not in general gameplay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
