I want to talk about two of these smaller moments and what Remake could do with them. Remake has the opportunity to bring us more small moments and to flesh out those that already play a valuable part, especially coming in such a large package.
There were plenty of big moments - Aerith, the Nibelheim flashback, the final cutscene with the Lifestream and Meteor - but the truly impactful moments were often subtle or hidden away some only took up a tiny portion of our playtime. And despite its genre-defying story beats and deep worldbuilding, one of Final Fantasy 7's most powerful aspects was the way it dealt with death. Positioned to be more than just a by-the-numbers rehashing, Remake aims to reimagine, update, and expand on the already massive Final Fantasy 7.įrom its combat systems to its narrative, lore, and overall philosophy, nothing will be left to chance in Remake.
Final Fantasy 7 Remake is on its way, and with it will come a whole new generation of players who've never experienced one of the seminal titles in the long-running series.
