Possibly my favorite game of all time.
As pessoas falam para um caralho desse jogo, mas ninguém menciona a mensagem predominante em toda a obra, essa sendo : ser twink da muito poder
If the San Junipero thing from Black Mirror was real my digital soul would retire to my bedroom at Christmas in 1997 to play this game for eternity.
peak game havent played the remakes yet
Uno de los juegos mas influyentes del mundo, algunos de los personajes mas reconocidos de todos los tiempos y una historia tan pero tan buena (y quizás algo confusa) que actualmente estamos pagando 70 dolares para volver a jugarla dividida en tres partes.
Si eso ya no dice suficiente sobre el juego, nada lo va a hacer.

Played how it was intended, with god mode on, and at 2x speed, on a nintendo switch...
worse weeb game than the remake
A game I 100% get why is a cult classic and story & character wise yeah it still holds up wonderfully. Heck visually it still looks pretty good almost 30 years later. That said what keeps me from giving it a higher score is one major thing-The Gameplay. I like turn base combat but good god I was not a fan of having enemies trying to attack you during your turn and it was pretty hard to see which character I was playing as due to how the camera was positioned to the point I couldn't think of a decent strategy to use which really turned me off from playing it to the point I had to watch a walkthrough on Youtube. Your free to disagree with me on my issue and I fully admit it's most likely a skill issue on my part but my ideal version of turn base combat is something similar to say the Persona or Trails series where you and the enemy do take turns and the player can strategize a way to win. Again to reiterate I do like this game I just wish I liked it's gameplay.
First time playing in 2024 while somehow dodging spoilers the whole time. Fantastic characters, writing, and combat system. The story is so sincere and hit such a range of emotions.
I can see the ambition behind the presentation and traversal, but moving around could be frustrating with it being unclear what can be walked on or not. This made for only a very minor detraction from a really fantastic game. This is one I will be thinking about for a long time.

Canonically, Aerith is Cloud's true girlfriend. However, canonically, Tifa is Cloud's true wife.
Would be a 5 star if the graphics weren't so out of date.

Final Fantasy 7 is a game that has been with me in every stage of my life. It was one of the first games I saw when I was sentient, watching my brother play. It was something I dreamed of beating as a child and struggled with on the crappy PC port of my extremely weak family computer. It was something I revisited in high school and college, appreciating it more each time. I picked up a significant amount of Japanese watching and listening to Lets Plays of it in Japanese, discovering some of my favorite JP streamers through it. The remake was there for me when I was depressed during Covid lockdown. Rebirth was waiting for me after I had gotten through a particularly rough patch at work. I love Final Fantasy Seven
This was a formative game for me in my youth. The visuals, the combat, the story, it was all something that I had no experienced before and despite not knowing how to read for the entire first disc, it kept me coming back.
This and MGS1 changed my perception of gaming as a medium and it formed a taste that I still possess to this day.

This game is truly my favorite game of all time I can go on and on in hours about why i love this freaking masterpiece of a game, No game has ever made me change a view of life and about struggling with personal self identity. And most of all being yourself, and stop pretending to be something you wanted to be but you can't achieve your goal in life. I just love this game of the bottom in my heart and the characters are just amazing and peak.
100/10 all time game

not perfect but its such a charming game. i find it hilarious the overworld models walk on pre rendered backgrounds like toys on a play mat
Most mainstream Final fantasy game, but not in vain.
This game was the biggest leap in terms of visual quality and gameplay.
Many people would say that it is the best for this very reason, it is the one that stood out the most and attracted attention as it was an innovation, but in my opinion, although it is still very good, it would be top 3-4 at best.

While it might be a bit passe to say Final Fantasy VII is incredible, I'm still going to say it. Following in the footsteps of VI before it, VII continues the series' departure from traditional fantasy and into more overt science-fantasy territory, not to mention it continues to place an even greater emphasis on the writing of its story, characters, and world. We play as Cloud, a mercenary who joins the eco-terrorist group AVALANCHE in their fight against the machinations of tyrannical megacorp Shinra. I don't think it's an exaggeration to call VII's opening - indeed its entire first act in the sprawling, grimy metropolis of Midgar - one of the most iconic sequences in videogame history. Sure there are typos and odd gimmicks to proceedings, but you can still feel the weight of VII's narrative today and as the party escape from the city and set off on the trail of the murderous supersoldier Sephiroth it's easy to find yourself entirely absorbed.
Still, the move to the PS1 brought some changes to the way Final Fantasy was presented, and not all of them are entirely positive. This is the slowest Final Fantasy yet, especially given that Square went wild with the visuals as the game moved to polygonal models instead of sprites, and getting your head around materia can be a little daunting at first. It's also a game filled with distractions and side content which can pull the pace of the game down a bit, but I wouldn't say they're to the detriment of the game; instead it all adds to the sense of a living world, but one teetering on the edge of a breakdown. There's a tension to everywhere you go that only heightens as the game advances.
The short answer here is that while FFVII won't be for everyone - of course it won't, JRPGs can be a bit of a niche like - it remains a stupendously strong entry into the franchise.

The GOAT
Who would have thought a dated jrpg from 1997 would now be one of my favorite games of all time? It took a while to work up the will to play, but the time felt right after beating Rebirth. I knew it was going to be great, but the old PS1 style mixed with people being possibly blinded by nostalgia made me a bit skeptical. Nope, it’s just that fucking good.
For 30 hours I was completely absorbed in the world and its characters. For such an old game that isn’t a pixel jrpg, it’s amazing how its art style somehow holds up in a weird way. It takes some getting used to, but within the first hour all those chibi egg beater hands became charming as hell. The whole experience of FF7 feels like a time capsule of good vibes coupled with a story that surprisingly mirrors some issues that we are currently facing today in society.
I could go on about all the things I loved about my time with FF7, but honestly I think it’s still a must play to this day. Don't sit on the fence like me. If you love the remakes so far, do yourself a favor and play the original. If anything I’m way more excited to see the conclusion than I was before.
