Honestly, I think new fans will like this more

> "the major story events have been completely rewritten in every way imaginable"
How accurate is this claim?

[OrpheusJoshua 126]

But there's also a chance a fan won't enjoy it due to how limited it is in the overall story from the original

[Otti#8624 26]

Barely

[Estoria#4001 19]

Figures

[Otti#8624 26]

They added a bunch of stuff, but nothing that changes from the original

[OrpheusJoshua 126]

I figure it's just an expanded perception of the original.

But the issue I think

[Otti#8624 26]

I do think new people will enjoy this more. Their expectations would (most likely) be more tempered than a fan of the game

[OrpheusJoshua 126]

Is that tons and tons of old fans have so many unconcious head canons and beliefs that are sort of broken by this remake

[Otti#8624 26]

Yeahhh, the original release also had terrible translation

[OrpheusJoshua 126]

Which is part of why i cant play it

[Otti#8624 26]

So if you didn't play one with something better, what you thought you liked might not even be here

[OrpheusJoshua 126]

The original was also super weird with its pacing

Like in the 10 hours i played, we left midgar but nothing felt truly at stakes

[Otti#8624 26]

I think you will like this more then

[OrpheusJoshua 126]

It all felt kinda haphazard

[Otti#8624 26]

It's amplified a hell of a lot more

[Estoria#4001 19]

Desktop Reddit sucks so much

[Otti#8624 26]

switch www with ss

Makes it so much better

[Estoria#4001 19]

The "Continue Comment Thread" option actually takes me out of the thread altogether

[Otti#8624 26]

Yeaaah

The new reddit is horrible

Just do what I said and it's a lot better

On the pacing, it's a lot better here

[Estoria#4001 19]

New Reddit's design isn't even that bad, it just doesn't firetrucking work half the time

[Otti#8624 26]

You get to know each character a lot more and you spend time with them

And endgame-ish you get to play as them solo temporarily which I liked a lot

Like there's an instance where you play as Barret trying to look for Cloud, Tifa and Barret

Which was pretty great

Or Aerith trying to look for someone while the whole place is in chaos

[OrpheusJoshua 126]

Honestly

The game feels like more of an on the rails narrative than a JRPG

The more I hear about it

[Otti#8624 26]

It is

I mean, there are RPG elements in it

But it's definitely on the rails
