Square Enix have seemingly not learned at all from their previous (and upcoming) releases in the Final Fantasy franchise, as the latest trailer for the Final Fantasy VII remake has been excoriating for apparently revealing the beloved classic has now taken the form of an action RPG – a choice that will likely have long-time fans converging on Square Enix HQ with flaming torches and pitchforks in hand.
The gameplay trailer that debuted at the PlayStation Experience 2015, featuring combat reminiscent of another Square Enix series, Kingdom Hearts:
Devoted Final Fantasy VII fans unconcerned with the remake’s “blasphemous” changes can pre-order the game anyway.

Cutscenes, cutscenes, cutscenes, massive framerate drop at 0:45... looks like a square enix game.
Not a problem, they'll have plenty of time to fix that as they usually delay main series Final Fantasy games at least 3-5 years.
I know right? Isn't the game out like next week? Oh how will they find the time to fix everything?!
How the hell did you even realized that framedrop?Its barely noticeable.
Stop being so annoying dude,you are just looking for a reason to complain about a perfectly fine game.
yeah, ignore the fact the game isn't due for another fucking years, at least
fanboys are the worst fans
You're fuken idiot....
square has been dead to me for years. this wont revive their shit company.
WHY THE FUCK WOULD THEY DO THIS!
I'VE WAITED FOREVER FOR THE NEXT TURN BASED FF,
GOT HYPED ON THE LEGENDARY 7 IN HD AND GOT CRUSHED...
Please tell me you didn't seriously believe they'd make a good game?
THIS
FINAL.
FANTASY.
IS.
SHIT.
This game will be the only one in main series in which the battle result will be dependent of player's skills.
Sadly if you want turn-based, you have to stick with Gust's Atelier style games. At least they never change. >_>;
Atelier games never change because they copy paste assets between games, like EA does with its Fifa etc games but with minor updates.
The next turn based final fantasy will be Bravely Default 2nd.
If you really want a good turn based RPG you could always pick up Divinity: Original Sin, it just recently came out for PS4 and XBone. Of course its a wrpg, so it has a distinct lack of cross dressing bishounen which might be a deal breaker for some.
Eh, it could be worse. What if it ended up being episodic where each of the disc in the original psone ends marks the end of each episode?
I'm now hearing that it is indeed going to be episodic. Can anyone confirm this?
Never mind, I did a quick Google search.
Confirmed episodic. Ha ha ha ha ha ha.
Fuck off, Squenix.
Personally I think FF7 combat system is overrated.
Materia had the same "blank slate" problem that everybody criticized in FF8.
Active Time Battle is an absurd joke. It's garbage. At least FFX wasn't ATB based.
Kingdom Hearts system is proven and fun.
My point being, sure they changed it but the original wasn't all that.
Because EVERYBODY was asking for it since FOREVER
only old people and nostalgiaboo like you likes turn based, old people like you have shorter attention span to react on games and needed time to think.
You want turn based? Play chess you senile old crap
Nobody cares about your shit youngfag betcha you fap playing that autistic shit FFXIII
I wished parents still beat the fuck out of thier kids, we'd have less fags like you
Maybe you stick to CoD you bellend.
People who say this mantra are such retards who know nothing about video games history. The first action RPG came out in 1987, you fucking retard. It’s nothing new. Action and turn-based RPGs have been contemporary ever since their first creation in 1986 & 1987 respectively.
Meant 1987 & 1986 respectively. There may have even been older such RPGs that I don’t know of. It’s nothing new regardless.
You got it flipped kiddo. It doesn't take an "attention span" to spam a single button, which is exactly how games like Musou & the latest Batman games play. And you'd know this if you were properly medicated, you hyper little underage shit.
somehow square enix always manages to disappoint
Unless it is a game directed by Tetsuya Nomura (KH series and FF 15)
I think you mean especially...
I know you just didn't label KH as a disappointing game. Go back to your turn based tactical strategy 2D RPG's
CG, CG, 15-20 FPS Tomb Rider or whatever, CG, CG, 10 FPS action, CG, CG.
And I bet game will end at the point when they escape Midgar. SqEnix will SqEnix.
Oh, and after it will flop hard on the face, SE will say "see, we told you nobody wanted old shit, everybody want something new, like mobile card games."
Nien; Everyone will buy it anyways even if its Action Shitbattles and Frame gouging. And square will continue to output shit tier gameplay games because people still buy it and ignore costumer feedback.
...Are you a time-traveler? Because I think this will happen.
I called it from the first time it was announced. I knew it was gonna play exactly like FFXV.
Oh wow, you must be a seer and can see the future! It's not like it was totally obvious to everyone from the start! Oh you know..that it was already said that they're changing the battle system, fuckin idiot.
To be released in 2020
2017, for its 20th anni
That's sooner than I expected!
so its a remake in the way that its not the same game at all its just ripping off the story to make $$
They already explicitly said that there will be changes, it's not like they pulled this out of nowhere.
This looks like B grade action movie. Sigh
And your mother was in that adult video I watched last night, but I still fapped to it.
GREAT JOKE, FAGGOT
That was my father dammit!! You sick fuck.
SE got this all wrong. Not remake, it is in fact a reboot. Remake should obtain mostly all the features of the original game. The change from turn based to action tells us that FF7 is now a reboot.
You, sir, are confusing a remake with a remaster. And SE is modernizing the battle system, because it's contemporary.
>action battle
>contemporary
*snrkt*
Wait for the next trailer when they "modernize" the whole game into a shitty social card thing for smartphones, because it's contemporary.
Dure you're confusing remake with remaster, and reboot with remake lol
He's not. remaster's reuse old code, remakes reuse old mechanics and reboots make everything once again.
No, the term remake just have been used too often to refer to reboots.
Remake is when you do the same thing aGAIN, using new methods new materials. Of course certain grade of changes is acceptable but if you change too much then becomes a completly new things.
A remake would be take the old game and make it again (from scratch, not using the old one and enhance it), with contemporary graphics. Like the FF games did for DS
Youre an absolute moron, do you know what remake means? wtf
