SantaRPidgey posted... no Final Fantasy will ever be good in the same way FFVII is good. also I'm not so sure about this, because Square seems to have stumbled on what makes FF7 so good, which is basically a bunch of broken people dealing with depression in healthy (Barrett, Zack), unhealthy (Cloud), and destructive (Sephiroth) ways. will Square never make a FF7 game that reaches the high of FF7? yeah probably not. but they might stumble on that formula again unknowingly. and it would probably play better too. Those people also were meant to be average people with no real desire to play the role of the hero (or at least before Crisis Core was released) or be world savers, and how they were basically forced into it along with how they evolve and change to face these challenges makes the story a really good one, plus its set in a fairly modern setting. Looking back I think there are aspects of FFVII that are overrated, but recreating the good aspects of the story in a meaningful way I think is an almost impossible challenge. --- "Lower your guard and you will allow the enemy in." - Frog from Chrono Trigger (the original alt frog). https://imgur.com/hSc6hOs <cite>Mozzezz posted [p:912652849] in Are people...
