#I just wish that it hadn't been so rushed and unfinished in spite of having such a long development cycle

[the-hype-dragon]

just been replaying FF7 and thinking how disappointed I was that it didn't just get a straight remake, haven't played the remake simply because it's a bait and switch AU

but anyway idk why but this particular boss battle amused me so much, when I was younger I swear this game wasn't so funny but in spite of the dark tone it takes a lot of the time FF7 is probably the funniest 3D entry, here's our techno-soldier, our R&D guys asked themselves, what would happen if you crossed the Terminator with a toilet?

(the 90s were very weird)

maybe I'll take more screenshots later but the only way I could really enjoy this game was with Yuffie and Cid as Cloud's backup dancers, holy crap they just turn it into a completely different game. FF7 has this reputation as being very serious and emo but it really wasn't, at all lmao. I wish more games were like that, where EVERY scene changes depending on who's in the party. I had such a blast, I kind of kick myself for hating this game for so long, I just didn't know how to play it lmao

#anyway modern games take themselves too seriously or rely too much on Internet meme humor #early FF games? that was 100% home grown free range weirdness and I'm sad it seems to no longer be part of the series #I'm so sad FF (and 7 in particular) has this reputation for being so moody and serious but it wasn't until about 13 I'd say #(and even then 13 can be very funny and the sequel dips into the old FF weirdness) #even the supposed angst-fest of 10 is actually very funny #part of that perception in particular is people taking the voice acting way too seriously lmao #in spite of its flaws. and in spite of the fact that I don't really like it. 15 came close to this kind of thing #I just wish that it hadn't been so rushed and unfinished in spite of having such a long development cycle
