Promising demo. I like how the combat is like a more readable version of 15's.

Never beat or really put much effort into FF7, but the remake looks fully sick.

It definitely feels like a more responsive version of 15's combat. I was surprised how intense the Guard Scorpion fight was

I like that the combat mixes FFXV’s real-time system and the traditional menu-based system but in a way that really captures the best of both. Neither one seems like a half-rear end compromise like most games that try to mix the two. I’m excited for the full game

Cloud playing like a pseudo-Dante and being able to queue moves up and swap to another character to do your own actions all feels so good

is there anything in the ui that tells me when i can use a X button action again. i couldnt tell if it was a cool down, or an animation thing?

X button actions cost a certain number of segments on the ATB gauge, if you're out you can't use them

Yeah even items and spells cost ATB... it's an interesting system and I like that it encourages you to be aggressive

and since ATB builds slower on the characters you're not directly controlling you have an incentive to switch between party members as well.

i never played post-launch-month 15 really, but not controlling your team directly is what killed it for me, same with KH. so loving pumped for late game with this poo poo.

I think summons work by adding an extra character to the fight.

There's a fair amount of permanently missable materia, and you have to decide for yourself how much you're going to care about that.

As soon as you can access the option menu change the camera distance options from 1 to 3. by default it’s way too close. otherwise enjoy, gamer.

there's something really bizarre about pulling a game from 1996 out of a time capsule and just recreating it with 2020 technology. all the characters have the quasi-celebrity voice acting talent version of the cartoon voices my brothers and i gave them when we first played it together and the script is translated better and a little fleshed out but otherwise completely unchanged from it's 25 year old sensibilities. it's like watching someone optioning a Marvel budget movie out of some sketches from your 10th grade math notebook and a performance from your high school improv troupe. they should do this to more games.
