So a bunch of screenshots were released and uhhh

Spoilers I guess?

Is this outside Midgar? Maybe some sidequests will take you outside.



Since it's just Cloud and Aerith in the party, it almost certainly has to be from the part after he falls into the church before he reunites with Tifa, right?

Edit: that enemy is definitely this guy. They're encountered in Sector 5

It's to symbolize how before Cloud met Aerith he was just like any other cliff. A dead end, no way forward. Aerith and Tifa are his bridges to the future.

I mean I know it probably won't but I'd love to be able to explore a bit more of Midgar, I love how they've fleshed it out to feel a bit more like an actual city in this.

Also carbuncle isn't a summon in the original FFVII is he?

intro movie looks great, I really like all the extra stuff they're adding to Midgar to flesh it out and I really hope they come good and make it worth exploring.

also, the best carbuncle was ff8 carbuncle

I honestly really love how the general fan attitude has gone from “oh god this is going to suck hard” to “I’m loving hyped for this” between the announcement and now. SE....might pull this off?

The one at the end after Cloud is not actually part of the opening. We know from the leaked demo that it goes straight from Cloud jumping off the train into gameplay.

My attitude has always been "looks too pretty, changes will probably suck, still likely to be a decent-ish fun game". Watching a beautiful opening isn't going to change that because it's just pretty graphics. I'll take it as fanservice (it looks really drat pretty) but it won't make me any more or less hyped for the game as it is.

I dunno I really haven't being paying attention to whats being going on with the remake just because it's taken so loving long. That said I was gonna wait till the PS5 came out to play this but now I think I'll just steal a friends one to play this.

It looks like square went "hey this is a beloved game with years of nostalgic build up" and then went out their way to make it the experience it needs to be.
