Is a video clip game of activity duty, published by the Square Enix business for the PlayStation 4 platform, which was launched on April 10, 2020, is a brand-new Version of the Final Video Game Fantasy VII of the year 1997 for the PlayStation console. The tale complies with the mercenary cloud strife while he as well as the terrorist group Avalanche struggle versus the corrupt mega corporation of Shira and also the epic evolved Shira First. The video clip game integrates real-time activity comparable to Final Fantasy Divided with various other calculated aspects. The brand-new version was introduced after years of reports as well as fanatic requests. 4 essential members of team reappeared with the new version: The initial Character Designer Betsy Nora returned as supervisor and also developer of primary characters, the original director Shinobi Kinase worked as a producer, Kazushige Nokia returned to compose the script and the Noble Seats author. Due to the range of the project, the group decided to release a new version as numerous video games to make sure that the original content is not minimized. They additionally determined to add new material and change the designs of the initial personalities to balance realistic look and also utilization.

Most players know that Final Fantasy VII of 1997 was and remains a climax for the series. From his distribution of characters to his history, his music to his fights, he has committed at all levels. After years to tease, Square Enix released the Final Fantasy remake for PlayStation 4 in 2020. It appeared in 2021 on PS5 under the name of Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade, and it is now available on PC.

The Final Fantasy VII remake is one of the most successful updates of all time. Even on PS4, it looked incredible. Some textures were still a little low resolution, but the character models seemed incredible. The musical partition has been completely re-registered. The characters have been re-expanded, the story has been better done and there have been new intrigue points. The remake included a new combat system from subsequent games. In his new incarnation, the game became the best entry into the world of Final Fantasy.

Free for the owners of the PS4 version, the intergrade update for PS5 has doubled the property. It has increased the resolution of the texture, lighting effects, reduces loading times and added new modes and control options. Perhaps the best of all, it included a character arc DLC in two chapters for Toughie Kisangani called Intermission. Although it is not free, the Intermission DLC was a delicious, but short add-on.

Final Fantasy VII focuses on Cloud Strife. It is a former member of the Soldier elite unit of Shira. Cloud is now working as mercenary for Avalanche, an eco-terrorist group determined to slaughter the planet Shira. Cloud is troubled by visions of Sephiroth, a former war hero. The story has a wide range of attractive characters, places and many interesting twists. This also seems longer than absolutely necessary, but it's always a remarkable journey. It's also only the first part of a game and a longer story.

On the paper, at least, the PC port sounds like a winner. It includes the basic game, the Intermission DLC scenario that features SUFFIX, all the DLC content of the basic game and the DLC for intermission. The PC version so far contains all the content published for FF7 remake. Available only on the EPIC game store, the PC version is $70. There were complaints that this price is too high for a two-year old PS4 game, but that corresponds to what PS5 players would pay if they did not already have the PS4 version.

While I strive to write independent criticism of what others think, I arrive at this game several days after its exit. Unfortunately, there has been a lot of negative press difficult to avoid the performance of the PC version and the lack of graphic options. Some critics are deserved, some are ridiculously exaggerated. Some are just not accurate.

It is true that, compared to many recent PC games, options for refining graphic performance are limited. Although you can select one of four image frequency targets (30-120), there is no variable image frequency option, no control over anti-aliasing or effects such as the Blur of motion. The port does not allow you to control the scaling of the resolution either. However, the assertion that the PC port offers fewer graphic options than the console version is not true. The PS5 version of FF7 Remake had only quality and performance mode options and brightness levels.

I launched the game on an i7 with a GeForce RTX 2080 Ti, a fairly average configuration. With all the advanced settings, there were constant starching of Frame rate at 60fps. Make some adjustments to the quality of the shadow helped. Oddly, I had fewer 90 IPS stamps, even with textures on the highest setting. Frame rate declines have definitely had an impact on the experience, but I was able to adjust the performance to minimize them, without killing them completely.

Very subjectively, however, Final Fantasy VII is more beautiful on PC. Textures are sharper and richer colors. Low resolution textures in slums are not improved by magic, but the exceptional art direction and the construction of the world are still impressive. Returning to PS5, the console version seemed a little muted and less detailed in comparison.

Of course, the PC port offers the opportunity to play game with the mouse and the keyboard. Why would anyone want to be a mystery, though. It is clearly designed for a controller.

Let's try to separate the negative hype from the truth. Square Enix apparently cut off a few corners with this port either by not optimizing performance and / or inclusion of some expected options. There are some frame rate stamps, but these can depend on parameters and equipment. If it is a software problem, they will probably be corrected. Even with everything recalled, it works and looks at least as good as the PS4 version. It may not be a good sales argument, of course, especially for a full-priced game. Yet this port is not the total disaster that some have qualified as. For anyone who has the same content on the PS5, however, it would be difficult to recommend it. The PC experience is too similar.

For PC players who did not play the Console version of Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade, it's an easy-to-recommend game despite potential technical problems. There is just too much good. The remake is one of the best reinvented games ever created, and the original is clearly a masterpiece. We would have liked more options, better optimization and a lower price, of course, but on PC, Final Fantasy VII remake is fantastic and the story, the characters and the gameplay deserve the time of each player.
