  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

Three games I want: Animal Crossing, FF7 Remake, and Cyberpunk 2077.
Luckily, I only have the console to play one of them right now. I already have a backlog after the boatload of RPGs that came to Switch last year - it was basically more RPGs in one year than Nintendo home consoles have received in the last 4 generations of home consoles (5 generations, if you only count SNES's English releases).

There is nothing on that list that interests me, besides Cyberpunk obviously...but is April realistic?

I was passingly interested in the FF7 remake until someone told me its not even the full game and will be split...i dunno if thats true...

"We've already begun working on the next one," Nomura wrote. "I'm confident that playing through [Part 1] will expand your expectations just like the world that extends beyond Midgar."

That last line is a reference to Remake Part 1 encompassing the Final Fantasy 7 story up until Cloud Strife and friends leave Midgar. That's a significantly-sized portion of the original, but some fret that it's not substantial enough to warrant a game. Nomura also responded to that worry.

"With regard to the size of the game that many are asking about," he wrote, "there's no reason at all to worry. Even in this Midgar portion alone, the density and volume are so great that I had to give directions to lighten them."

-Severely- disappointed when I read this. When I played the original FF7, I couldn't WAIT to get out of Midgar. Now, I'm assuming the city will be completely bad-ass and expanded, with a lot to do, but the exploration of the world, and places like the Gold Saucer, are what I found most enjoyable in the game....

I guess it meas Aerith is relevant the entire game.

I'm the opposite. My favourite part of Final Fantasy 7 is Midgar.
It's dark, atmospheric, and very cyberpunk. I still remember the first time my characters broke onto the train, the swaying of the grab-handles, the way the other passengers quietly moved to the opposite end of the car as your gang got on the train.

Not only the location, but the inhabitants of Midgar, and the storytelling. As an example: The Don Corneo scene was absolutely brilliant, lighthearted, funny, and dark all at once.

It's a city I really want to explore, to know more about. I've always wanted to see since first playing the game is a vast expansion of Midgar. A place I can practically live in.

It also debuted some of my favourite tracks of any video game:

Speaking of Square has some demo that they decided to not release to the public, it's apparently one of those demo to buy which unlock the entire game deals, well long story short it leaked and was datamined to hell, and the entire soundtrack is out there, which I acquired. :^)
