MODERATORS
The post link only mentions PS5, but the Square Enix page says consoles and Steam. Steam page doesn't seem to exist yet, though.

It'll probably come with Denuvo anyway.
Already confirmed on the Steam page
doesnβt matter
I can't help but be excited for this. Here's hoping it gets ported to pc eventually.
It's coming out on Steam on September 30th according to the Square Enix page!

Sick! I remember it being fun, but never having the time to finish it. Maybe this is my chance. :)
Same. I found a way to soft lock myself into (one of?) the final boss fights and then my PS2 laser failed. Loved the game though and been looking forward to playing again for like 20 years.
This is all I wanted for VII. You fans of tactics are lucky.
Iβm with you. All I wanted for 7 was a graphical update and instead you got alternate dimensions bullshit.
Original VII is great how it is. I was happy to have an alternate telling for the remakes.
Unlike VII, VIII has always been ugly and needs a graphical upgrade to match their over ambitious models for the hardware. Also needs a combat overhaul so it's not so super easy, and draw is not so tedious.
Tactics original is pretty, but could use some QoL updates.
VIII has always been ugly
I don't agree with this. It definitely wasn't considered ugly back when it was new. In fact, I believe the over ambitious models for the hardware as you put them were considered a big improvement compared to VII's.
I think the battle sprites look amazing, but in the field, the details on the models get squished into too few pixels, and it's a jarring juxtaposition against the beautiful pre-rendered backgrounds. I can remember some reviewers sharing my opinion at the time, but you might be right that calling it ugly is a bit much.
Agreed. To me, VII was always the ugly one in the series. Unfortunately I played VIII first and was blown away at the technical marvel the game is.
Afterwards I played VII as a kid and it was unplayable. It felt like playing with cheap, homemade, wooden dolls. It was always the game that needed a remake the most.
I'm loving the 7 remakes and super looking forward to this!
DON'T FUCK IT UP
Hope they get the sound right this time. And fix the effects slowdown glitch. And donβt introduce new weirdness.
Finally
VA sound amazing!
