The worst game I've had the displeasure of playing. I played about 15-20 hours and honestly hated every second of it. It felt bland, safe, unremarkable but more than anything I was either immensely bored by it or immensely annoyed. Dialogue was almost painful to read at times, specifically from Tifa, and gameplay was so horribly aged, functionally broken or clunky that there was no enjoyment to be had from it.
What I had problems with most however was the story. I'm fine with games that have very minimal or no story whatsoever but I can't take bad stories. This one I found be insufferable. The setting wasn't interesting and any attempt to expand upon it was lazy/shallow. The plot itself felt directionless. There was a goal but there was no way to actually get to the goal shown. It was more like just a few cobbled together scenes sometimes rather than an actual narrative. Extremely disappointing from one of the most iconic from my favourite genre of games.

I agree with JunKami and his reasonable take on your unreasonable review, but I want to have a polite discussion so let me begin:
You like fate
You like persona
You like trails
+ratio
I hope you enjoy the utter demolition of your pathetic "take". Good night.

ye I'll echo the haters and say I would understand someone not liking FF7, but not if they're otherwise clearly a JRPG fan. The core mechanics of FF7 are still excellent, the story is perfectly paced and the cast is as compelling as ever.
