In short, this game is a wild experience and it's extremely fun to play! The game managed to combine great strategic elements with fast-paced, action-packed, elements to deliver something we've never seen before. At the end of the game you'll be left wanting more enemies and bosses to fight, more of the story, and more of the overall experience. People who gave this game a bad score is being unreasonable. The game does so many things better than all the other games: amazing characterization, fantastic combat, great lore and story.



Now with the flaws (not major enough to really dock points) buy they are very evident cannot be ignored:



- Marketing. Apparently many people thought this was a completed original FF7 game from head to toe. Although I knew this, I can admit that it can be slightly misleading since there are not "parts" or "episodes" on the box. Rather, it only says "Remake" with small captions on the back of the box that explained the game being episodic. I don't personally find this worthy of docking a ton of points since I got over 60 hours out of this game so the value is worth it.



- Bad and/or slow texture bugs on day 1 launch. It's something that is noticeable and does take away immersion a little. Game still plays fine and I haven't experience crashes or anything serious.



- Aerial combat is a annoying. Luckily you don't fight too many aerial enemies but when you do the battle always feel extremely drawn out because you cannot get to the enemy and when you do the can only hit them a few times before falling. Aerial combat also potentiates the camera issue.



- Camera issues. It's not horrible per se, rather, it's somewhat inconvenient? Even with the lock-on system I've used skilled in the opposite direction or miss a combo entirely just because of the way the camera is. You sort of have to constantly move it yourself. Many areas are too cramped or small and the camera is literally at your character's head and can barely see anything. Overall this can easily be fixed and i's more of an inconvenience than a deal-breaker.



- Lastly is the pacing. Trust me, you'll be able to tell which part is pure 100% filler or padding. Some parts feel inorganically drawn out and overly long or no reason.



Overall these are all technical issues that can be fixed. The core of the game: the story, combat, graphics, and characters are ALL fkin amazing. I'm on to getting Platinum while waiting for the next chapters. … Expand
