Yeah I think at the time a lot of people were disappointed it wasn't actually coming out on PS3. To be honest, it was for the better because the hardware wasn't quite ready to make a fully realized FF7 remake. The difference between the demo and FF7 remake is incredible. That's not to mention how much more realized the world is in Remake and Rebirth (and whatever the conclusion to the trilogy will be).

The little bits the added to Remake's intro sequence really teased the idea that "this is different than what you've known". I remember my first time playing. I was freaking out at Aerith looking back to the alley while a mix of Sephiroth's theme played. She knew something was wrong immediately. And the flower getting stepped on? Oof. I knew right there that I was in for a wild ride with unknown twists ahead.
@gyufrecАй бұрын
My though exactly. Looking back this intro and having both remake and rebirth, you can see something is totally different from OG FF7, like Aerith knowing something is coming for her (Sephiroth) and also the scene with Cloud on the train, exactly like the intro of Crisis Core with Zack instead. Square put the bar really high and showed how they are capable of remaking a favoured game and give you same goosebumps like in '97.
@spazzwazzleАй бұрын
I'm so glad they didn't remake it prematurely. They seriously provided what we didn't even know we needed with the remake: a game that would make you feel like you were playing FF7 for the first time again, and with production that made it look practically as nice as Advent Children, satisfying our childhood imaginations of what walking around Midgar would actually be like. I can only imagine the reality of the PS3 remake being something along the lines of FFXIII combat and lifeless faces during non-FMV cutscenes.
@skeleto4682113 күн бұрын
Yeah I love the sense of foreboding that was included. Like Aerith could sense something bad was gonna happen to her. It wasn't in the original, but it's still faithful to the og while making it seem new

Not to mention the fact that we are introduced to Aerith as she opens her eyes. Y’know… the same way we last saw her at the end of OG FF7. I remember when I pieced that together and freaked the HELL out because of the potential meaning of starting FF7 Remake the way OG ended

I truly think that the introduction to FF7, and really FF7 Remake now, is one of the best intros in gaming history. It's such a fun way to serve as a tutorial while also introducing us to Midgar. I love it so much. So much that I love FF7 Remake more than I love FF7 Rebirth. Midgar is such an incredible place.

@@sugarwafers9302youre right. But this scene with this melody. When i first started the game up, it sparked a feeling inside me that was unmatched. I really love this Remake triology. Its sad, that Rebirth didnt seem to perform as well as they expected. Maybe if they release it on PC in 1-2 years like Intergrade.

I love how the scale of the remake is so much larger than the original, that *it actually changes the music in this scene.* As the camera moves upward for the establishing city shot, the music actually slows down a bit. And then when the Shinra building comes into view it loops the previous part of the music the shot starts with but louder.

Damn, going back to this really highlights how quickly graphics were evolving back then. This demo was only 8 years after the original game came out and people were foaming at the mouth hoping it was real. Fast forward to today, people are legit mad that Naughty Dog remade The Last of Us, even though when TLOU Remake came out, the time difference was actually longer between those two games than FF7 and this trailer!

This is what the remake should have been. Almost 1:1 remaster with differences only being to aid in the immersion of the original story. Are there differences? yes Do they change the story? no Do they add even more depth to what we already saw? hell yes Like the addition of seeing Cloud on top of the train to seeing the soldiers on patrol and getting taken out by the members of Avalanche. Barrett telling Cloud to hurry up. It doesn't change the original's story at all and all it does it make it even more in depth and even better. But no, they changed personalities, story and timeline =/

Aerith had some cake in 2005 xD And just noticing this now, Clouds got the CC Buster Sword. So they had this design made at least 2 years before CC released.
I wonder why the PS3 version does not show Aerith closing and opening her eyes. I suspect, from the eyes of Cloud later that it was just very difficult for the designers/programmers to make her eyes look beautiful. I'm glad for PS4/5 that changed SEVERELY. 3:57 We have come a far journey from World of Warcraft square pupils to games like Final Fantasy 14 where the "Ancients" have such incredibly beautiful eyes. And FF7R tops even that.
