I'd heard of this roulette mechanic before playing but it's still such a wild concept to me. I do love the idea that Zack is more likely to do a cool move he saw sephiroth do if he's thinking about him.
I'm assuming the CG cutscenes are the same as they were on PSP just, not compressed to fit on a PSP, but the in-game models are remade or taken from FF7R. It makes the switch between Pre-rendered scenes and in-game scenes so uncanny. Sephiroth looks so weird in the Pre-rendered scenes!!! I don't know how to describe it other than his face feels wrong!
I shouldn't be surprised but godddddd the story of this game is so stupid lmao. I got to a part where the game is just like "hey remember that memorable thing that happened to cloud in the original, lol guess what Zack did literally the same thing before him isn't that wild".
This is like a masterclass in how to completely ruin backstory that was left vague and didn't need to be shown.
I guess in a way it's kinda reassuring that they managed to get away from this nonsense in FF7R. This game is basically the level of writing and direction I expected FF7R to have before it released.
Shinra scientists really ought to consider giving their monsters two wings. They'll probably fly better that way.
You can make the corporate shill flower wagon or the trans rights flower wagon.
