TBH right now I'm a lot more hyped about Crisis Core remaster and even Ever Crisis. FF7 Rebirth being PS5 only kills a lot of my hype because A. I can't afford a PS5 at the moment and B. even if I could, you still can't find them anywhere. Even the Wii was more available at this point of its lifespan. I don’t get it. They’re not that hard to get. I’ve bought two since the launch of the console. Sure, the first required a little bit of searching but the second was just a quick trip to the store to grab one of a handful they had on the floor.

The closer we get to Rebirth coming out, the more confused I get over how this is just going to be three games. Unless they completely rip up the original story (which they could very be doing considering everything so far) the pacing doesn't fit into just three games. Honestly, the whole theme of the first game was twofold: 1) Flesh out the characters and locales, 2) Both Sephiroth and the party are trying to change their predetermined fates. Sephiroth needs to do it because he ultimately loses otherwise. The party does it because they’re trying to do what they think is right and what they think is right goes against what they did last time. I approve of both choices, quite honestly. In the original game the only reason Aerith dying bothered me was because she was the best white mage of the group. To me she was an archetype, not a character. In the remake she is a character who clearly can see what her fate is supposed to be and is torn between making her peace with it and resisting it for the party’s sake. As far as going rogue from the original story, if I want an unedited version of the original I can play it instead. I imagine I can find some nice mods for it now that brings the graphics up to at least ps3 levels. Heck, this time last year I was replaying FF9 (no mods), so it would not be an impediment if the mood struck me.

You quoted a year and a half old post when PS5's were a lot more scarce. Stock's gotten a lot easier to find since last fall. At least for me.

Having to tell myself that skipping work to play a game is not responsible and we really need money. Over and over.

I’m forcing myself to to finish the chore that is FF16 before I buy this. Giving me motivation to fight through that slog at least … 66% done according to the PS5
I also think I’m gonna beat the OG FFVII too … haven’t done that since I was a kid. Currently early on, just past Don Corneo’s. But with the battles all sped up it won’t be nearly as long as it would normally take.

I'm having my Final Fantasy XIV main cosplay as Sephiroth in honor of Rebirth. She pulls it off pretty well lol. I'll post some pics once I get home and on my desktop.
Anyone else interested, the Lv 70 DRK weapon Odenta Kai makes a great stand-in for the Masamune. You can get it for Poetics at Rhalgr's Reach.

Enjoyed it for awhile but after beating the base game at the time, it was such a chore to even start the first expansion at the time.

The ARR patch story progression is arguably the worst slog of the entire game. They did cut out a bunch of quests a couple of years ago, so it's not as bad as it used to be. Still a whole bunch of relative nothing until you get into the Iceheart stuff.

Which sucks because I've heard of how great the stories get.

It's 160 GB.
In comparison, the original FF7 is only 5 GB.

Ordered through Amazon and it's supposed to be here this afternoon. It's out for delivery, however according to tracking, it's in Von Ormy. I don't live in Von Ormy. I'm in San Antonio, which is where the package was last night according to tracking.
I'm a busy man and I probably wouldn't have had time to play it til next week, but it would have been nice to have the copy in my hands. I contacted customer service about and they said to give it time and if it doesn't show up, they can resend or refund it...

There's a crazy rumor I am hearing on some forums that Aerith in the remake could be some time traveler or something that foresaw everything from the original version
