Final Fantasy VII Rebirth Review: A Comprehensive Guide to the Remake Trilogy

2024-03-12 13:00:43

“Final Fantasy VII Remake” launched in 2020 has received good reviews. The picture quality and animation at the time were completely remade from the 1997 “Final Fantasy VII”. At that time, it was officially announced that the series would be remade in the form of a trilogy, just when everyone was speculating whether they would be able to play the final chapter in their lifetime. The second “Final Fantasy VII Rebirth” was finally released this year. Just wait for the editor to review it without spoilers. The game will be released to the public on February 29, 2024, and currently only supports Playstation 5.

▲Super cute moogle

▲There are so many cute creatures in this episode

▲The screen is greatly enhanced

The plot is chaotic in the beginning and full of charm in the later stages.

Many players have doubts about whether they need to play the first episode. In fact, it is not necessary at all, because there is a 10-minute plot review in the game. Unless the player really wants to be deeply involved in the story from beginning to end, the review will make it difficult to play the first episode. Players are fully aware of what happened in the previous episode. However, when it comes to “Final Fantasy VII Rebirth”, even if I understand the plot, I am completely confused about the early stage of the plot. The game deliberately arranges many different plots and different time points to be mixed together. Because I don’t want to spoil the relationship, it can only be said to be a plot arrangement. It is sometimes difficult for players to understand, but they have to admire the official’s bold approach in retaining the original works and adding many new interpretation methods. However, the plot is also full of charm for new and old players, and it is worth taking the time for players to slowly immerse themselves in the plot expressed in the game.

A semi-open map that travels through distinctive areas

Different from the previous episode, the map of “Rebirth” is bigger, broader and more fun. When players complete the prologue and officially step into the first area, they will feel that the world view of the game is very grand. Players can see mountain and sea views from a distance, as well as different terrain distributions. It is really not easy to jump out of a very nostalgic game into a vast open area. Every place and city has different characteristics, making players feel that they have jumped out of the framework restricted by the first two works. In addition, the game has different branch systems, so you will not feel bored during the entire game process and exploration. There are many point-to-point games, but there are very few games like “Rebirth” that can attract players without giving them a sense of homework. And little.

▲Every area has a super large map

▲There are different collection points

  • Side missions break the framework of general games

    There are different types of side tasks waiting for players in “Rebirth”, and task points are distributed in every location on the map. The nature of each side task is different, but it is mainly to help each area and establish relationships with local residents. , although the environment set in the game still feels beautiful to many people, in fact the planet has completely died from the inside out. As a result, side missions allow players to explore every corner of the area to see how destructive Mako is to the earth. Players will pass through barren lands and polluted landscapes, giving players a world view in the remastered version of the game. Although the types of side missions are similar in each region, with rich rewards and step-by-step exploration behind them, this is not a simple “side mission”.

    ▲The mission will prompt the player about the completion progress of the mission

    ▲Try to complete the task as much as possible

    The battle mode has changed a lot, and the simple mode is not simple either

    “Rebirth” initially provided three difficulties for players to choose from, but this time the game provides a lot of combat systems to allow players to get deeper into the combat part. At least even in the easy difficulty, there are no boss-level and powerful enemies with names. Get by with normal attacks alone. Some support tasks even require players to complete some technical tasks, allowing players to learn how to launch attacks at the appropriate time during combat. Each character has a unique fighting style and skills. In the story mode, players need to operate each character and use their personal strengths to deal with different enemies. This attribute conflict system can be powerful enough to turn the game around. . However, the enemies are also relatively difficult to deal with. Some enemies will move at high speed on the field or have various nerf skills that affect the player. After a few attempts, you will find a way to deal with them.

    ▲Weakness attack can definitely change the battlefield situation

    ▲There are many interesting nerfs waiting to go home

    The skill tree of the equipment manufacturing system has been greatly enhanced.

    In addition to personal characters affecting the game mode, equipment has also become an important system in the game. However, the way to obtain equipment this time is no longer just by purchasing or unboxing rewards, but by collecting materials on the map to create props. Or consumables, including recovery potions and strength-enhancing supplies, which can even strengthen equipment capabilities, giving players the motivation to collect various materials. However, the only drawback is that the maximum number of materials is 99, and some materials are tight in the later stage. This time, there is also a skill tree that affects the game. You can obtain team rewards by completing tasks. These rewards can point out different collaborative skills and bonuses on each character’s skill tree. Some skills can even be used without consuming MP to improve the game. The battle has become relatively simple and easy, and the points can be reset at any time to meet different needs. The animations of the collaborative skills are also worth watching. They are stylish and stylish and can deal super high damage to the enemy.

    Queen’s Blood is a card game delayed by FF

    “Queen’s Blood” is a card game added to “Rebirth”. It is as addictive as Gwent in “The Witcher 3”. The simple gameplay has deep strategic requirements. Players control more grids by placing cards, and compete with the opponent’s point bonus from each row. The early game is slightly simple, and more cards are obtained as the opponent is defeated. Later in the game, you need to use ability bonuses, attack cards, and unique characteristics to get more points. The game can be completed in about ten minutes, and there are only tasks to explore the origin of the game, which is full of fun and story-telling. The level of fun will definitely not make players hate spending extra time playing, and it will definitely give SE the opportunity to launch additional mobile card games.

    ▲The card game is very interesting

    ▲Defeat your opponents to get more cards

  • The image quality and performance are not optimized and there are still many opportunities to steal.

    Although as a remastered game, it is really a big improvement to be able to display old games in a modern way. Although I believe that many players will be very satisfied and have a modern feel in terms of combat or characters. However, no matter in graphics mode or performance mode, you can still see that the picture is not very smooth (the official also admitted that the performance mode will be fixed as soon as possible), especially when changing the perspective in graphics mode, it will be like “FF16” There is an uncomfortable blurring feeling, and there are still some locations where frame drop occurs in performance mode. There are many modules on objects that have a familiar feeling with “FF16”, and some dark corner objects will appear with extremely poor resolution as long as they move forward, and you can clearly see the square-shaped image, so there are many “Stealing the chicken seat”.

    ▲The game has a lot of chicken-stealing positions

    ▲The picture is a bit blurry in performance mode

    Summary: Incredibly emotional gameplay

    “Final Fantasy VII Rebirth” is a huge improvement compared to the previous episode. Even if you have not been exposed to the “FF” series, it is still very good as an RPG game. It has a semi-open world with side tasks of various depths, and a huge world view to keep players entertained. While playing the main storyline, don’t forget to eagerly explore the areas and see the challenging missions. Although the arrangement of the game plot is a bit confusing this time, and the game performance is not optimized. However, the game brings players powerful visual and gaming enjoyment, and the game hours are also quite long. This rebirth brings a big surprise to the trilogy, and I am looking forward to the direction of the final part. Although there are many games in February, “Rebirth” should be the best game this month. Recommended to all players who like RPG games or open worlds. Of course, if you like “FF”, you can’t miss it!

    ▲Side missions will not make people feel bored

    ▲It’s fun to explore with a chocobo

    ▲Really looking forward to the development of the third part
