There are some mini games that just try my patience, Tifa's sit ups one was one. Pretty much have to be perfect in order to win it it felt like.
Finally made it to Gold Saucer though and I'll never get this theme out of my head.

If you think Queens Blood is hard, don't play Fort Condor That took me a few tries to get but I got it, it is a nice little strategy game Oh that one is straight-up garbage, too. Though, that one wouldn't be as bad if it didn't have a time limit. Anyway, I'm barely at Junon (right before the parade) right now, but both those mini-games made me think the developers had a conversation like this: "Hey, you know how in the original Final Fantasy VII, the mini-games were fun? How about for Rebirth we do the exact opposite!!" Sorry if it seems like I'm bitching. Rebirth has been great thus far, but the mini-games are just not very good (unless there's some actual good ones at Gold Saucer)

This game's kind of blowing my mind with how good it is. I guess I just wasn't expecting it to be quite this good, lol. The world is absolutely huge and there's so many places to explore. I also enjoy playing as Cait Sith a lot more than I did in the original game. Honestly, Cait Sith might be my favourite character to play as, lol. Never thought I'd say that.

95 hours in and almost done 100%ing it, I’ll definitely post a long spoiler free review in here later. To think I could put this much time into an open world game when I despise the open world concept!

Due to work, I am like 25 hours in and really enjoying it but doesn't even feel like it It helps that the world always has something going on and the side quest aren't just fetch quest. It is building bonds with the crew while also following the story

It is building bonds with the crew while also following the story that’s what has gotten me to do everything, even near the very end all of the side content has excellent story beats. some of the mini games can be very annoying and areas hard to navigate but not once have I been disappointed at what was waiting for me at the end of it, a true rarity in modern video games

Kinda pissed. {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}I guess because I didn't 100% the parade, and Tifa/Aerith/Red are all tied at Dark Blue relationship and 4 bars, I only got Red XIII as an interaction at the battle square and no one besides him were waiting for me when I woke up in chapter 8.

I finally beat it, it's an awesome final battle and can't wait for Part 3, which will probably come in 2028 if I had to guess.

So, does this one have the same issues what the original FF7 Remake had?
Basically completely pointless padding to make the game longer than it should do and piss poor pacing (One that springs to mind is the sewer level, where a monster steals your key that you need to chase down for half an hour--just a complete waste of time. And the game was absolutely full of these types of things which just served to make the game longer than it should be, like the wards in Shinra HQ. It was a 20-25 hour game, padded to like 40 hours to the point where I just got bored)

Finished it a few days ago and just beat the superboss. Have a handful of stuff left like some arena battles but yeah I'm just about done with the game.
Man, I don't know what to even say. It completely lived up to my high expectations. Probably even surpassed them. It's up there with one of the best games I've played. I mean, they make Cait Sith great! I did not expect that haha.
One of the biggest moments for me was seeing a certain character that I didn't expect to see. Can't say who because I'm on my phone and can't do spoilers right now but holy shit seeing that character and and hearing that music really got me.
Speaking of music, holy crap. Just an incredible soundtrack.
I'll probably have more to say later but goddamn what an experience.
Oh one more thing, Queen's Blood is my favourite FF mini game in years haha. So fun

So far the pacing has been really good. All your side mission shit is to enhance relationships and really morning feels passing. The side mission games alone is going to eat up hours

Just started Chapter 12, and I'm a little over 105 hours in. How is this a game that exists?

I wanted to finish Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth before starting this so I only started it on Friday. Currently on Chapter 4 and running around these huge locations that I know so well but don't know at all is great.
Plus you can pet the baby chocobos so that's 10/10 right there.

The hours fly by and it doesn't feel like you are doing busy work I don't see how games can match this as a lot of them want to get to this level where 100 hours is what you put in but really the game is like 40 hours

Chapter 12: {Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}Gotta say, having Kotch and Scotch going full-on Beastie Boys is certainly not something I was expecting. I love this game.

Just finished Chapter 8. The one two punch of having {Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}Dyne and Palmer as back to back bosses was tough, but it felt good to beat them both. Gonna have to back track a few regions as I missed a ton of World Intel.
