Huh maybe they shouldn't have attempted to make their customers pay 3 times to play one game.

Yeah especially now that it's very clearly the game plan. It works when people aren't certain a PC port is coming but now that we know every PlayStation game gets a PC port, why bother?

I don't mind this personally. The world of FFVII is huge, and the remaster has so much more detail in it. It's not like the remasters are short games, expecting the entire FFVII story to be told in this kind of detail in one £50 box is kind of a big ask.

Yeah that's not what they're doing with FFVII. These are three, very large, separate games. I'm nearly 100 hours into Rebirth and I'm probably about halfway through. Remake took me 80+, and the Intergrade was maybe 20 or so.

And not a moment of it has felt wasted or boring to me. Even the card game in Rebirth is incredible. I think they're maybe even making an irl card game out of it.

Maybe it's nostalgia as the original was a massive part of my childhood. But I love what they're doing and where they're going with the new series.

Yeah, I'm just waiting for the Trilogy collection to be released and discounted to $60.

But the original FF7 spanned three disks, why shouldn't the remaster?

!lol I got 2!<
