I’ve never played the OG FF7 but I loved Remake. Beautiful environments, great music, story, and characters. I rarely pick games back up after finishing them, but I finished remake twice.

I was really excited to play Rebirth, especially after seeing the all the great reviews, and wow what a let down. The graphics are downgraded, the story is filled with Ubisoft style open world bloat, loaded with pointless minigames. It felt like SE tried to pad out the game with as much time wasting garbage as possible. I put the game down shortly after reaching the second area and haven’t felt compelled to come back.

Does the game improve at all later? Is it worth pushing through?

    I’m not even half way and I’m at about 25+ hours at the moment. It’s great. I think I overall prefer the more linearity of remake but I’m still having fun and the all of the towns being as open as they are is the best part of this open world aspect.
