FF7 is out and I feel all nostalgic... :)

I get so nostalgic everytime I think of the Honey Bee Inn and bathing with all the muscular guys in the hot tub together!

So yummy, I wish there was something like that in FFXIV!

If you ask me FF7 is one of those "you had to be there" things to really see why it was mindblowing at the time. Up to that point video games in general had really not offered anything in the way of a "cinematic experience" like FF7 did (unless you count something like Dragon's Lair but that's pretty much just an interactive movie) which is why people went crazy for it.

I enjoyed FF7 at the time but I really feel it hasn't aged very well, especially compared to FFT which surprisingly was released the same year. That game has aged gorgeously.

I agree^

There was a lot of wow visuals in FF7, yet I didn't feel like they were overdone. They were sparse in my typical 60-75hour 1st-time game clear (I saved an entire memory card with FF7s because I never saved over for fear of losing access to a cinematic).

I'm very nervous about the FF7 remake, although I shouldn't. That ship already sailed with all the 10year anniversary releases. I did enjoy Crisis Core, tho I like to pretend those games/movie were not 'FF7 universe' but more an 'inspired by the FF7 universe' thing.

I enjoy Tetsuya Nomura's work, but it is not the same as Kitase.

I could compare these 2 game directors to the two Film Composers John Williams and Hans Zimmer. <3 Zimmer(Nomura) and what he does, but he doesn't reach that special place Williams(Kitase) did.

FFT remake was great, gave the game new content and translation. FF7 never got retouched in that way though. I'd assume they've lost their source code for FF7, and that's why the Steam release of 7 and the rest were all just 1998 PC's FF7 re-released instead of polishing a fresh executable. Though FF7s dialogue is my fav as it was

IX was my fav too.

With no VII I saw my friend playing it and thought "This looks freaking terrible, how dare he bring this game into my home" he left it at my place by mistake, I thought I'd give it 30 mins of my life. The moment Cloud's name turned to John I was like "YEAH! BEST GAME EVER" The moment that game really got me hooked was when Biggs, Jessie and Wedge meet their end.
