The voice acting is absolutely terrible. And even on the hardest difficulty all you have to do is use potions or cure spells a couple times to never, ever die. There's no challenge.

Plus it's way too linear. They should have made it at least semi-open world. You're pretty much following a straight line all the way through.

2/10

When I watched a playthrough around release, I thought the VA work was fine, other than Cloud.

some of the voice acting is fine. i liked aerith and barrett. tifa is forgettable though and cloud is... really bad. he sounds like someone from a ps2 game and all the weird grunts he makes every time there's a "..." or something are incredibly obnoxious

Cloud is insufferable but I'm assuming that's on purpose? Literally has no character development throughout the 20+ hours and is almost peak definition of an anime trope character.

Anyways, you can't play on Hard until you beat the game for the first time, so this is your 2nd run TC?

It's definitely on purpose. I was only really familiar with him from KH. When I played the original FF7 for the first time, I was surprised to learn that he's a massive fucking dork.

For those who don't know, FF7R's Hard difficulty limits your potion count iirc, so you can't just "spam potions"

Limits it to zero, in fact.

People are talking shit about him, but a top-tier moment in the game is when Tifa first sees him in that dress and he immediately cuts her off with, "Nailed it, I know, thank you, moving on."

Cloud is the grandfather of many anime/Japanese video game tropes but there's also more to him than you'd think

its not his character thats the problem, they did an ok job capturing early game cloud's personality in the remake. hes just a bad voice actor

theres a lot of incredibly awkward scenes in ff7r that have no place in a modern game no matter what country it originated from. lots of really bizarre grunts, long stretches of silence mid conversation with characters staring like mannequins into each others eyes, etc

The sidling is a technological loophole. The game is loading the next area during the sidling. Rather than have loading screens, the devs chose this method to make it feel less like a computer game and keep you in the imagination.

Theres a spot where youre allowed to just walk in a tunnel for like 10 minutes straight and theres absolutely no loot or enemies or progression or anything and when you realize you wasted that 10 minutes hoping this RPG had any semblance of exploration, you get to waste the next 10 cursing your way back to what was kinda obvious was the funneled progression path in the first place.
