At least "incredibly detailed FFXIII production knower" is a new kind of fail.

Yeah a gamer who actually knows his poo poo instead of spouting of bullshit unlike 90% of this forum. What a huge fail that guy is, and a loser for caring about little things like knowing what the hell you're talking about.

It even persisted up to FFXIII. The english translators on that game said they must have translated the entire game five times because the script was constantly getting rewritten after the fact. Plus they couldn't ever get a final version, since they would contact the writers, VA directors, producers, and cutscene directors only to find out that they were all using different scripts.

Did the translators go into detail about what changed? Thinking about all the different teams using a different script is funny as hell.

The world didn't end in FF7 but a lot of stuff was destroyed. Aeris prayer for holy and her sacrifice brought out the life stream of the planet to help combat jenovah. That game had a really good story imo. 6 was were the world actually was destroyed and it was basically a tale of revenge.

They said they will "go beyond the story, world, and experience of Final Fantasy 7 in ways we've always dreamed of"

clearly that means there will be a way to make Aeris live

So are they pricing this like those Telltale games where you just buy it once and get all the episodes from start to finish or are they going full retard and making you buy each episode individually

In going to guess the latter since each one will be like 15 hours

Did they say 15 hours? I thought this was going to be like the three XIIIs in that it's multiple full priced games that would be longer than that.

It needs to be sold in pieces for this to happen on the proper scale, which they've emphasized is their goal . Otherwise SE will probably go bankrupt a couple years into development and we get nothing. Now, if the first bit comes out and its overpriced poo poo and has big things missing from the original game, sure, gently caress em, but it makes sense why they're doing it this way. Plus, it means that we'll get to play some of it before 2017 and gives them an opportunity to do a complete set or whatever when its done sometime in the early 2020s at the end of this console life cycle.

I think the beginning to leaving Midgar would be a great part 1 but that might be a little optimistic.

Midgar is about a quarter of the game and then you unlock the world map and go Whoa.

This looks promising, but I'm holding my judgment until I see the pre rendered cutscene of Cloud getting gangbanged at the Honeybee Inn.

Not really, they had a lore bible to stick to and the characters couldn't change. SE wanted the game's initial drafts to be translated as they were being edited, for some reason. The story can be best described as a bunch of minutiae built around a series of pre-constructed level assets and cutscenes.

RE: Final Fantasy 7. The episodic approach kind of makes sense, otherwise the game wouldn't release until 2017. Ideally it would be in 10-20 hour chunks depending on the number of episodes

I thought this too but the story is actually that "the scenario" is done, meaning the script is written. Which, well, that was done over 20 years ago I'd think

From Famitsu:

They want add delver further into Biggs, Wedge, and Jessie.
They have an idea about the number of installments that will be released, but they’re not at the stage where they can say anything.
They’re not talking about online right now.
The scenario of the first part up until its ending is already complete.
They’re getting technological assistance from the Kingdom Hearts team with Unreal Engine 4, since they’ve been using it with Kingdom Hearts III.
Cloud’s hallucination scenes will be more meaningful.
As for the cast, they’re continuing plans with the voice actors from Advent Children, but there are some that still haven’t been offered yet. Red XIII only made a cameo appearance, so his voice is likely to be changed.
Separate from Limit Breaks, there is another unique system. They can’t show it yet, but the it’ll be different depending on the player’s fighting style.
Nothing has been decided about guarding yet.
