Being that we are on quarantine I might open mine up to see if I need to get the dust out.My pro is pretty quiet TBH. Game looks amazing however some environmental textures are questionable. It doesn't really bother me though because the original had no texture detail to speak of...
Its amazingtyhat a game this blurry can look this good, lol. It's not like it's not mostly corridors either. Plenty of games do a lot of things better visually, yet this game manages to look amazing.
Now, part of that is the way their models look (beautiful). And the camera, and the animation style- There is a lot of personality and its easy to connect to the characters. Great job.
I'm in love with Aeris and Tifa all over again, lol

This is my first FF, and I like it...A LOT. I would only play another FF game if it's the same game play. I am on the PS4 Pro, and I haven't had any blurry issues however. It's been so crisp.
I never played the original so I don't have an emotional attachment to the story. Graphically this game is strange, everything looks good from a distance so screen shots are nice but up close the textures are all pretty bad, some places look like they have no texture at all, that may be a bug but sometimes doors are just gray blurs and nothing pops in over time either. Going up close to things shows how poor the textures, at night when the lights get to pop and it's harder to see details up close it looks a lot better. It's fun though I am enjoying the gameplay overall so far.

That motorcycle segment was great. And am I the only one who thinks that one dude looks and sounds like Charlie Sheen?
I was thinking the exact same thing lol.
The way the women act in this game is funny, they all want Cloud who has the personality of a dead tortoise lol.
That flower girl is annoying AF btw, I hope a bee flies up her nose the next time she sniffs one of those flowers lol.
BTW I normally am not a fan of motorcycles or chase scenes. So when they got on the motorcycle I was like oh boy here we go
But then playing it I was like 
. I didn’t want it to end. That was a LONG ASS train tunnel!
This game is the most FF game we've had in a while since the ff7-9 era. I haven't stopped playing it daily since I got it early last Wednesday. I've beaten the game in 45 hours and now I'm at around 55-56 hours doing all the trophies and beating it on hard. The story has the original core concepts in place but as you gravitate towards the end, you start to get the feeling this is more a ff7 reboot rather than remake, which I'm personally fine with although I thought this was supposed to be a remaster. I've read some OG fans are quite upset about this understandably. Me, I'm excited to see what happens next. This is the best looking console game I've played yet, even with those crappy door and wall textures in some places lol. Lighting, OST, presentation and character model are top notch. Tifa, Aerith and even Jessie are captivating with their personalities more fleshed out. Let's hope part 2 won't take too long!
Did you fight the house yet? I didn’t beat it on my first try and I had it down pretty far before I died. Took me quite awhile. It’s times like these that make me not want to play because now I have to do that all over again 
I just got the game from my mailbox, & played for 30mins. The game has the world's longest game save. Otherwise, so far so good. The combat feels really good.
Yeah, it wasn't too hard Once you realize the trick. I find the special battle afterward to be quite the bear .Did you fight the house yet?

This game looks like CG despite having the lowest resolution environment textures I've seen in a long time. Lighting and post processing are stupendous. Load times are crap. Makes me wonder why.
You have to use magic that is opposite of the magic the house is using. Cloud can do decent melee damage when the house isnt in a magical state.
It’s fairly obvious the game was initially design for last gen, and many of the assert shows. They are however clever to prioritize which parts of game receiving updates like current gen lighting, materials, and characters models.
the Dave file however is highly unoptimizable. The game probably save a lot of unnecessary data to take so long to save, but I am glad it has traditional “PC” save system of multiple files and allow you to save anytime instead of BS check point single save That many Games used.
i can’t recall the among of time I was auto save with the single file checkpoint system at bad time of low ammo, health, cough metro, end up me gave up playing as I did not want to start all the way from mission started 2 hours ago.

Damn this game is addicting. Almost to Chapter 12 now. I absolutely love this game. The only thing I didn't like so far was:
who thought it would be a good idea to have Cloud DANCE and dress up like a girl? That some SJW stuff going on?
The game just doesn't really click fully with me, even after dropping 18 hours. Maybe because it's superlinear, or the boring (post-witcher) side quests.
I actually played the original FF7 (just to show how old I am, & yes I had m2m poster in my barracks), while the characters have more depth, visuals obviously better, & combat more refined, the world is very limited. Gone are the world map & airship & many OG characters are missing. I can understand. Creating the original world (yes you have a world map) of FF7 with details of current-gen console would be impossible. For every jaw-dropping areas, you have areas that seems copied & paste with way too many long narrow corridor.
I still enjoyed the game, don't get me wrong. But the enjoyable is surprisingly less than many recent games I played like gears 5, COD campaign. control & I am a big RPG fan. Also, maybe I am nitpicking, & I know its anime style, but Tifa, Jessie, & Aerith look way too similar in their appearance other than hair.
