It's not dead, the success of games like Pillars of Eternity or Shadowrun belay that reality.
Some people like the tactical aspect. I still like action RPGs, I've played almost every Tales game. But I really like turn based RPGs. I'm sad that this remake is dropping the original system.
Still, y'all should've seen this coming, why would they waste time and resources to remaster the original FFVII in HD if they were going to make the same, identical game with updated graphics?
Exactly this. That would be lazy and unnecessary, as the original, ATB-based game is available on almost every device imaginable at this point.
It's like remaking Super Mario and turning it into an FPS.
It's absolutely nothing like that. But hyperbole is fun! Let me try:
"I want my highly detailed, 1080p, pseudorealistic character models to adopt a cool battle stance and stand perfectly still in formation as rockets are launched at them while waiting for a meter to charge in order to retaliate. Because it's so much prettier that way!"
Don't get me wrong. I love turn-based games, and I love the ATB system. But I've already played that game. I'm replaying it right now, even! It holds up really well. But this is going to be a fresh experience for newcomers and fans of the original. That's awesome, I think.
It's not hyperbole... a game is a rule system. If you change the rules of monopoly it's not monopoly anymore. If you change the core mechanics of a game, it's not the same game.Â
There's not really any wiggle room. This is a new game, that will have the story and characters of ffvii. But it won't be FFVII, which makes me sad, as I was hoping for an updated VII, with better graphics and new side quests and things. Not this.
