To this day, Final Fantasy VII remains being a blueprint for a brilliant plot, an excellently written protagonist, antagonist and even sidekicks and minor antagonists. I would love to give examples of how great the character development is for each party member, even the optional ones, but I don’t want to spoil it for people who still have or want to play this game someday.

Every time I replay FF7, I realize even more how many fantastic games and franchises it influenced. Literally one of my favorite game series, Trails/Kiseki, is inspired by it. Its Quartz system is without a doubt a deviating and further developed Materia system.

Not to mention its memorable soundtrack. The Prelude, Jenova’s theme, Aerith’s theme, Tifa’s theme and of course, Cosmo Canyon and One-Winged Angel. Many of them are so good, even people who never played this game immediately recognize Sephiroth’s unique theme within the first three tunes (Sephiroth for Smash reactions prove that very well).

All in all, a lot better than I remembered and now, one of my all time favorite games, especially because I took my time to learn all the mechanics and because I almost platinumed the game. Almost, because there’s that superboss, Ruby Weapon. This superboss has a really annoying glitch. Defeating it took me about 40 minutes, but I couldn’t leave the fight into the victory screen and as I’ve learned, it’s a very common glitch. That was very frustrating, so I delay getting the platinum to another time.

Other than that, I had a perfect experience. And with that, Final Fantasy VII became my favorite entry in the series.

The game of all time. It is what Breath of the Wild should’ve been in so many ways, which is hardcore to say, since BotW is already a masterpiece, but it got almost obsolete with the release of Tears of the Kingdom.

It improved in so many ways. The best sequel of all time, without a doubt. It has been a very long time since I had as much fun with a video game like with Tears of the Kingdom.

Some flaws got taken over, though, I’m not gonna lie and I wish the surface of Hyrule got changed a bit more radically, but it’s alright.

The final boss is probably the best final boss in the entire series. Wow! This is what Breath of the Wild should have done with the final boss: having great and epic fights and amazing presentation.

I don’t know if I want the same Hyrule or map a third time, though. The next game better takes place somewhere else or has a brand new Hyrule.

shit game
hate the v-tuber art style
hate the overall style as well
main character looks ass
don’t care if it’s an anniversary title, the fanservice is garbage
time wheel again
embarrassing plot and characters
the opening song is worse than the worst seven deadly sins opening

game looks unironically like it was developed with ai tools
