>>700965527
It's not a remake.

>>700965458
more like afterbirth amirite?

>When Flopbirth loses the SonyBonus
KEK

The fundamental issue is they made it a trilogy
the amount of padding is endless

>>700965458
Unfortunately it doesn't stand a chance against better JRPGs.

>tries to convince you it's moving
Why do "we" dislike grindy games nowadays? This wasn't a thing in the past.

>>700965458
Reminder they gave Starfield a 7. This is the true score for FF7 Rebirth without the PS Bonus.

>>700966350
the issue these days is the reviewers just do their thing and the publication doesn't matter

theres no agreed upon pcgamer review standards

>>700966282
The game isn't even grindy. If anyone has to grind in Rebirth or Remake they must have a learning disability.
He's probably just a boomer who thinks that any addition to the original story is "pointless filler" by default.

>>700965458
He's right.

The fantasy is over.

Barry, you are obsessed

>>700965458
understandable
square peaked 26 years ago

>>700966947
Can't argue with that.

>>700965642
>j"rpgs"
lmao no

>>700966947
I felt the same way and stopped playing the game about halfway through.

>>700969128
not reading all that tranny stick to dota kys

>>700966947
Completely wrong. It covers a lot of the story beats.

>>700966947
Nostalgia can only get them so far. Should have included a good game with those member berries.

>>700969128
Don't you have to go cast grease on the floor for the 150th battle in a row?

Barry plz, if i wanted to hear the opinion of the fags who gives world of warcraft expansions a 10 because of the fat checks they receive, i would listen to CNN and BBC.

>>700965458
FF7R was weird. SE literally bribed every streamer with Nestle Butterfinger products and nobody said anything

>>700970472
Oof. Barry raped you again :O

>>700966463
Because it is pointless filler you absolute nog.

>>700970129
No I cast rain cloud then chain lightning

>>700966947
68 seems high for that review. Reviewers need to get the balls to shift the window back to 5/10 being an average game

>>700966947
A bunch of the tbd reviews are roasting it too.

>>700971112

AHHAHAHAHAHHAHA

>>700966947
Barry wrote that review, didn't he?

>>700969128
this reads like it was written by icycalm

>>700966947
How is it fair to give it a low score for skippable side content?

>>700966947
>uh I played the optional content and nothing happened
LMAO

>>700966947
>But all the charm and pageantry in the world can only distract me for so long before I realize: nothing has happened this whole vacation.

BTFO

>>700966282
It's bunch of meandering cutscenes & scripted events with dogshit writing constantly trying to stall you.
part 1 is a straight up walking simulator. part 2 makes a half assed to do that slightly less but still does the scripted bullshit a lot and probably has even worse padding.

>>700966947
The ship does leave the dock though and you play cards and fight Jenova.

Did he even finish the game?

>>700966947
What charm is he even talking about?
All the environments look fucking terrible. They're gross asset flips with nothing in common with the original locations.
they paid zero attention to design & art direction.

>>700973240
>probably has even worse padding
So you didn't even play it...?

>>700973430
I can't decide which one has worse padding but pretty much all of that "open world" stuff is trash and so are the mini-games. So yeah I'd probably say rebirth has worse padding.
Its a shame games exist that are 95% shit with a bid of decent content buried under all the trash.

I'm genuinely convinced game journalists are doing this on purpose now. Rebirth might disappoint people in the sense of it putting the story back on rails but it is not a fucking 68. It just not.

>>700965458
Accurate. Generous even. God that was a waste of money.

>>700966350
Omg lmao worse than starfield

>>700965527
aint no way it's still on disk one

>>700966463
You really going to say all those stupid minigames weren’t pointless filler? The game is filler personified.

>>700966947
I hope the ubisoft tower open world slop was worth it square

>>700966947
Spot on. It’s like 40 wasted hours of nothing happening.

>>700965458
Barry was right and won..

>>700965458
>highly praised PS4/PS5 exclusive gets exposed for being mediocre the second it gets ported to PC

every fucking time

>>700971582
I skipped all side content after coast del la soul and it was still a tedious slog.

>>700973361
Pro tip to anyone who wants a date at the GS with a girl. Skip playing cards with the catdog, or you’ll probably wind on a date with him instead. Really fucking stupid, Square.

>>700965458
68 is way too high

>>700965458
I genuinely dont understand how big of a faggot you need to be to enjoy nu-FF7. More expensive, bloated version of the original, that doesnt understand less is more

Maybe in the future people will realize FFVI and FFIX are better games than cloud strife masturbatory celebration simulator

>>700970685
why isn't this game listed on deidetected.com

>>700975465
It's ok when japan does it

>>700966947
This is a literal perfect description. Probably the first honest professional review Rebirth has gotten.

>>700966947
So everyone saying the game was bloated ubislop were right.

>>700966040
nta but it's not a remake, it's a continuation/re-imagining/fan fiction/semi-sequel

>>700965458
A score less than 7/10 or 70/100 may as well be a 1.
They will be blacklisted by the publisher and never receive review code ever again.

>>700970861
No it isn't. They are usually either fun or thematically coherent. It makes sense manbaby mental children wouldn't be able to detect and appreciate that.

>>700966040
Yeah, and Final Soldier was supposed to be the last Star Soldier game but then they went and made Soldier Blade. Just because something is in the title doesn't make it true.
Also, it's a sequel/ alternate timeline thing.

>>700966040
Its REMAKE, not Remake

>>700976329
oh no blacklisted by industry juggernaut square enix what a horrible fate
now he won't get a review code for hotly anticipated megahits like...uhhhhhhhhhh

Floppa.

If you look closely you can really see the jeetness in the code.

>6.8
thats pretty bad for ign which usually cums all over everything

>>700973953
Yeah. 58 at the least, 68 is just too high.

kek rebirthtrannies can't take a break

>>700966040
No see anon, when FFVII Remake was announced in 2015 you should've *known* it would be a Kingdom Hearts-tier fanfic meta sequel. I mean it's so damn obvious, didn't you watch the EVA Rebuilds?

>>700966947
Holy based, I fucking kneel

>>700966040
bait and switch

>>700971582
>it's fine the optional content is bad, just don't do it
How about making the optional content good

>>700966040
They added "Intergrade" cuz they lied and didnt wanna be open to criticism

>>700966947
God this is exactly how I felt about this game, I finished Remake in like a week, it was intense as fuck and I couldn't stop playing. I still haven't finished Rebirth, it's just boring, you just go from one place to another and nothing ever happens. It's the middle section of FF7 but stretched into 50 hours, it worked for Remake because it was very eventful, now it's just a tour around the game world.

>>700966271
This game was so lame as well
I dropped it by the 3rd town
Just wasn't hooking me with anything but the mystery about the humans

>>700971582
The main content is also boring.

>>700966947
The worst part is, it's so diluted it makes you stop caring about the main story, after Remake people were hyped as fuck and couldn't wait to see what would happen next, but now I just don't even care anymore. I'm sure part 3 will be better, but I can just wait now.

>>700973420
That's what I am wondering
Even redditkong has these environments that look like they are puked out of the engine asset generator
All the content creators shilling it are hoping for china man good will

>>700969606
It works for the original because the entire thing is 40 hours long, most of the events are at the beginning and the end (like almost all games really), now we have an entire 40 hours of just the middle section, if this was a TV show I would have dropped it a long time ago.

>>700966947
Rebirth covers the most boring part of the game so he's not even wrong.

>>700981427
that's not IGN. It's pcgamer, only review bellow 80. Average is 90

>>700982590
I think at Square they knew that by making the game a trilogy the second one would suffer the most, that's why they filled it with open world bullshit and Ubisoft towers so Western developers would praise it.

>>700965458
Based clickbait retard - he knows the low grade gonna bring unlimited clicks from FFags and FF haters

>>700982064
The minigames are fun

didn't this game come out a year ago?

>>700982661
Rebirth is dramatically better than Remake

>>700982661
The original game is open world, it just has no content

>>700982827
and the sales prove it! Oh wait.

>>700982853
What do sales have to do with anything

>>700982853
we all know the best games of all time are the highest selling games

>>700982661
Yeah, I'm sure they felt the need to flesh it out cuz originally the stretch between leaving Midgar and the end of disc 1 is just exposition.

>>700965458
It's bizarre to me that people complain about SE actually adding content and shit to do in the different zones. If they made it a 1:1 remake with no new content those giant locations would feel like empty missed opportunities. Honestly they should've added even more stuff, places like Kalm still felt too devoid of things to do
