MEGATON: Final Fantasy 7 Remake Free for PS Plus users in March??! Edit: confirmed.

It would be the entire reason for some gamers to view it as not a full game. All of this is a matter of perspective. I don't believe one is more right than the other because I see both as equally valid.

@Pedro said: @kingtito: FF7 Remake is an oddity. In one instance it is not the "full game" because the original has the completed story and the Remake retells just a portion of the full story. But on the other hand, there are many games that are part of a series and each game is considered a full game. What makes FF7 Remake odd is the existence of the original.

"In one instance"? What happened the other times?

FFVII Remake doesn't retell the story of the original. Lems have no idea what this game actually is and it's hillarious.

FF7 Ever Crisis is the remake of FF7, FF7R is the sequel to the compilation. Spoiler alert.

Many FF7 fans have the same concern on the partial release but after playing FF7R, many finally understood its not really a remake but more like a proper sequel to Compilation of FF7. The story took a very different path near the end and through bullshitery many dead characters now alive somewhere and the gang off to a new unknown journey. Spoiler by the way but need to go there to explain why people finally accepted FF7R the way it is.

When you unable to read and comprehend, the above +1 happens. 😂🤣

@sakaixx: Ah don't tell them! It's just part of a remake! It's a scam!

I'm certainly no cow, just ask anyone here, but I have beaten the game and it goes in a different direction than the original game. At a certain point the timeline changes for good. Therefor the games cannot be compared lengthwise or chronologically.

@Pedro: you are*

For future reference: "on the one hand". You learned something today. Yay!

It is funny seeing someone owned themselves by not reading then trying to wiggle out of it. 😂

lol at pedants.

I had a good laugh. Peace out kids.

You mean "own"?

OK I'll stop. Sorry. Bye ^^

Still confused? So sorry, I'm trying to make it real simple so that even you can understand.

First, not a cow.

Second, part of a story =/= part of a game. Remake includes part of the original's story. It is a completely separate, full-fledged game.

According to you, each separate LOTR film is only "part" of a movie. Are you only seeing part of a movie when you watch one of them? Can you even watch the entire movie if all of them combined don't tell the entirety of the original story? So according to your own logic, a full LOTR movie doesn't exist?

I am losing brain cells trying to make this any easier for you to understand. Again, idiots. Don't sniff paint, kids.

@wonderwinner: "Get rekt kid"

I didn't know that you were a child, maybe i will write it in colour so you can read it 🤣🤣🤣

Those movies iterated each book individually, and not the story as a whole. The Hobbit movies broke a book down and were largely panned, but not solely for breaking the story apart.

Not a cow, cows seem to be the only confused ones

LOTR is and always has been a trilogy not a single movie or book in this case. FF7 not the case, it was a single game being remade and revamp for modern times since the OG 20 year old gameplay wouldn't of been a good choice. Bad analogy is bad

Ahh don't be a sore loser kid, soon as you start name calling you've already lost. Just move along and take the L son.

And the Hobbit? The analogy stands, lil buddy.

Keep dodging if you want, or, if you really think each movie is only a "part" of a full movie, cool. Just admit it and we can all move on knowing you have a crooked view of reality. No need to keep hanging on to falsehoods.

Thanks for this, I'm not exactly a super fan but glad to know the Hobbit movies serve the same example I laid out.

It doesn't, as you stipulated LOTR. 3 independent books, with 3 independent movies. The Hobbit was largely lambasted for splitting the story as I stated above...

They counteract your point... The Hobbit was diluted into 3 films and was largely criticized. LOTR was a 3 book story, made into 3 films.

great game. though i would still prefer ff7 original due to its more of a complete game. anyhow its still great.

Just because it was lambasted for those reasons doesn't mean each of the three Hobbit movies is only "part" of one overall movie. They may tell part of the story, but as I stated above, part of a story =/= part of a game. A full game can tell a part of another game's overall story.

The point is when you say "FFVII: Remake is 25% of a full game", well, that's just objectively false. If you instead say "25% of the full story", fine, we can agree on that.

Jesus Christ. You stipulated, and I quote:

LOTR was a 3-book narrative, with a 3 movie representation. Your analogy was incorrect. The Hobbit was a single book split into 3 movies, and was largely lambasted for that move... Kinda like FF7R.

@lundy86_4: Not sure "split" is the right word.

"make shit up to pad it out" seems more accurate. Like, has almost fuckall to do with the book.

Can actually level that at LOTR as well, bears very little resemblance but thematically, it follows his ideas, which is what really matters.

The Hobbit is a jovial childrens tale that gets turned into Elf 3 way cringe romance, half the cast murdered and samurai fights with albino orcs.

Suppose to come back from a fun, gay (not that usage) adventure. Instead it's like he's came back from fucking Nam' or something.

You are hung up on the fact that I originally named LOTR in my example rather than lasering in on The Hobbit, and correctly pointed out my mistake. Cool, you're really, really into LOTR. You don't need to try and prove how much of a superfan you are, I get it. But don't let that cause you to lose sight of the point.

It doesn't erase the fact that the Hobbit movies serve as the perfect comparison, and the fact remains there were three full movies that told the same story as a single book did. But again, they were three full movies, each telling a part of an overall story. Yes, JUST like FFVIIR is a fullgame telling part of an overall story.

I really don't get the pushback. It really does seem like the same crowd that was mad they broke up the Hobbit is still here years later crying about FFVIIR.

Great for those who jumped to the winning horse. They get to play a GOTY nominee

@kingtito: The end of the remake makes it clear it's not following the same story.

@i_p_daily: I see you're still triggered.

Get over it. 😎

No son it doesn't. The Hobbit was broken into 3 movies but a continuation of the 1 book. Still a bad analogy

FF7 Remake was made for suckers like you son. 25% of the game made to milk you just like charging $40 for a demo or full boat for a remaster of a year old game. Sony knows it's customers well

@kingtito: WTF are you blabbering on and on about?

The game is not on the Xbox. It needs to be done.

Learn how to comprehend what you read, or get someone to explain it to you ok 🐄 alty.

Yeah I'm just gonna keep ignoring this game until they ACTUALLY make a COMPLETE remake and release it on PC so I can avoid the nonsense. Square Enix is ripping playstation players off and they are too deep in the sony cheer leading squad to see it...

@Dark_sageX: spoiler alerrt, its not a remake.

Good news for ps+ subs (although it isnt the upgraded version :\ ). But this really isn't a "megaton" tbh. lol

Look at PS top played, CoD, Fifa among other yearly rehashes dominated. LOL cows...

Usual suspect is still crying.

Pathetic. 😎

Damn! Good one sir.

The DLC for this game is a PS5 exclusive. 😂🤣 PS4 owners are going to be left out.

An FAQ page was uploaded after Intergrade's reveal during the most recent Sony State of Play broadcast. The Yuffie Episode was announced alongside Intergrade, but is a separate piece of DLC – but Square Enix has made clear that it won't be coming to PS4. The FAQ says that, "the new Yuffie Episode is optimized for PlayStation 5, so it is not available on PlayStation 4."

This means that the only way to access the Yuffie Episode is to buy Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade on PS5 or, if you own a PlayStation 4 version of Final Fantasy VII Remake and a PlayStation 5, upgrade your version of the game – but you will still need to purchase the Yuffie Episode separately if you upgrade.

Usual troll bringing old info thinking it's new and failing at trolling.

Typical. 😎

Stating facts really upset some folks. 😂

I am confused about this game. If I want it for PS5 in the future with all the upgrades and the new Yuffie DLC, how much will I have to pay? I don't own the PS4 version and I do not want to subscribe to PSN, I just want to buy the best possible, full version. Do I have to pay 70 USD? Or maybe 90 USD? Any help is appreciated.

Where as I prefer physical games I didn't really want to buy this one although I did want to try it out. This is a win/win for me. Good to see SONY trying to compete with MS and Gamepass in a way. All these types of games I don't want to purchase will be available through one of their services. Something tells me that at some point in time both of them will see that it just isn't sustainable. If people like me think it's cool since I don't actually have to purchase the games... well... that's not a good look at all. Just wait for it.

You will pay $70 if you don't have the game. If you have the game, you will need to upgrade it first before you gain access to purchase the DLC which I believe is $20.

Wow. Anyone who hasn't played FF7 Remake is missing out.

@Pedro: Thanks for the info. I think that Sony could simplify the whole upgrade a PS4 game to the PS5 procedure. It is so simple on Xbox, at least on Xbox One X (I haven't tried the Xsex). You install your game and the console will tell you that you need an update that contains the 4k textures etc. You download the update for free. Simple and consumer-friendly.

@omegamaster: Got it for Xmas, can't wait to try it.

@pmanden: that's... Exactly how it works for this game. The new content is paid, though.

Glad I didn't buy this yet. Thanks Sony! I might just pay for the upgrade then I guess. I think that will be a fine alternative to a pc version.

Btw, next month oddworld soulstorm is free for ps5 users (could include ps4 too I think). Day one! Nice!

If you have plus you could probably just get the free upgrade then purchase the Yuffie episode for $20.

If i download this weeb game. Will my brain be 'okay'? My brain melts when its too dudebro or too weeb. I need a balance.
