My biggest disappointment with Square-Enix.

User Rating: 7 | Final Fantasy VII Remake PS4

I'd like to point out that I really thought SE had nailed it, until I saw the end of the game =/. So SE had to change the combat system? Ok, I am good with that, they did a great job. So SE had to split into episodes because they wanted to give more depth to Midgar? Ok, I am good with that, Midgar seems amazing and they've given a lot of depth to some secondary characters. But WHY? Why SE had to totally change the story??? FF7 is one of the FF's with the strongest stories in the role series. SE had plenty of characters to create more content related to Shinra and keep this fight against Shinra but NO, instead they decided to turn this into a fight against the Destiny, seriously? The Destiny? You keep the role game fighting Shinra and then in the very end you simple start to fight Sephiroth, Jenova and The Destiny for no real motivation. FF7 is now the new Kingdom Hearts series, and the end set the stage so now they can do whatever they want with the story, thank you again Nomura.

I can see where you are coming from because you aren't completely wrong on a few points but a score as low as 2 out of 10 are for games that are nearly unplayable with a bunch of glitches and bugs like Big Rigs Over the Road Racing. I'd recommend uping the score a bit if you want anyone to take what you had to say seriously. You can hate the story personally all you want but can't let that get in the way of how a game is rated as a working product.

@Nightmare5000: I agree with you and changed the score. I did this review right after finishing the game, so I was really upset, but you are totally right, graphics are good, just a few minor bugs in image rendering. The characters were treated with respect and the combat system is fun, the worst thing about it is the camera. I am not sure if the following chapters will carry all your progress in this game, if that's not the case my disappointment will grow.
