Today’s game is some more Final Fantasy 7 Remake. I’ve did chapter 3 of it today (along with all the side quests). I just want to express how much i love the sense of scale. I’m playing on 1440p, so i can tell the background is a solid image, but despite that, fuck. The topside of the city still feels massive. I feel tiny compared to the thing. It really is cool to see.
I spent a while in photo mode just looking at the roof and looking around. It really is well done in my opinion.
While doing the drake fight, i couldn’t figure out i was supposed to pull this lever, so i kept running around trying to figure out where to go. The thing is, thinking back on my first playthrough on PS4, i made this exact same mistake. So some things never change i guess.
I did the quest where you hunt down the cats to bring them home. There. are. so. many cats. I love this place. My only wish was that the cats had better quality of life than living on the streets. One day i hope. One day.
I met Johhny, which i liked. Poor guy got roped into this. I hope i get to see more of him. I did spy an achievement mentioning him so i’d assume this to be the case, we’ll see though.
The final thing i did for today was the Dart Board minigame. I spent like 30 minutes on it, but only 6 darts later and i got it perfectly. Top of the charts and everything.
I adore both of the FF7 remakes.
They aren’t flawless, and the obfuscated story that requires a lot of theorycrafting to keep up with isn’t for everyone.
But damn. The way these games make me feel like a pre-teen exploring my first game again, is pure magic.
