An interesting game for sure. On a gameplay, visual and sound level, this game is outstanding and really shows what heights AAA games can achieve. I really enjoyed playing this game having played the compilation beforehand, and it made the experience a lot better. Up until the last chapter or two, this was close to a 4.5/5 or a 5/5 for me, but because of how this game deviates from the original, it really hurts it.
If the changes were done in a smart or understandable way then I think I would have liked it more but the way they change this game from the Midgar section of the original is nonsensical at times and really confuses me as to where they are going to go from here. Obviously changes in combat and bosses were needed and were done well, but the changes to the story at times were just stupid.
That being said I really enjoyed it and am looking forward to the sequel if we get it within the next 10 years. Hopefully they don’t go too off the rails with MCU style cameos and time jannie bullshit but we will just have to see
