My friend lent me his copy of FF7 PC, and I tried playing it -- albeit after I played earlier FF games.
There were two problems. First, it was...kinda weird compared to earlier games. Sure, the steampunk vibes began in FF6, but we didn't have Literally An Evil Megacorp and Literally Eco-Terrorists fighting over Something That Feels A Lot Like An Analogy For Nuclear Power. That was a whole nother level. Nothing wrong with this per se, but it just felt like something quite different. Neat, but just not the same FF I was used to.
But, perhaps more importantly, the game just kept crashing. I kept going as far as I could, but the game just wouldn't progress past the introduction to the Gold Saucer.
