I agree.
In English Dubbed Kung Fu movies, Even if that characters portrayal gets cheesy/hammy, the characters personality remains, there quirks and features comes though.
Some Kung Fu movies are intentionally made Cheesy. Shenmue isn’t cheese, the acting just awful.
Shenmue just has some really bad voice acting. I would not hire any of the original voice cast. I never saw a Hong Kong Kung Fu movie or most anime has such bad acting and dialog as Shenmue.
Ryo has less personality than Ben Stein (Buler, Buler, Buler).
It is like the voice actors really did not want to even be their when they are recording.
There people behind this particular article is stupid
Before I tear them a new one I will go over what I agree with
WANT: The materia system (Change nothing)
DON’T WANT: A complete story overhaul
DON’T WANT: Other parts of the expanded FF VII universe (no one needs or wants this. Also there a part I skipped around here as you see in the Disagree section).
WANT: Dual musical options (considering the original game already have CD quality sound, I rather they just use the old BGM and save on the budget but we know new versions of the tracks are incoming)
The I disagree with
DON’T WANT: Don Corneo’s Mansion As-Is (Cross dresser cloud still be cross dresser cloud Devs are saying it stays, the parts you want to skip is in the Honey Bee House portion of the side quest).
WANT: Revamped battle system (Leave the shit alone, those who don’t like turn base combat can go play in traffic)
DON’T WANT: Terrible minigames (WTF the Minigames were awesome, it also half the golden saucer, yes they be revamped for the PS4 but don’t eliminate them)
WANT: Parts of the expanded FF VII universe (No, we don’t need Crisis Core, Dirge of Cerberus and Advent Children influences as they exist outside the FF7 time frame)
WANT: Cool new summons, and the option to skip them ( This is wholly the opinion of new-fans who don’t get what classic JRPGs are and they need to keep their trap shut).
DON’T WANT: Random encounters (This is part of the experience, taking this out would completely change up the game too much, get out with this not having Random Encounters).
WANT: Aerith back (If this becomes a DLC opinion I might go postal).
Sounds like another one of those people who first Final Fantasy was FF7 and never played the older series.
I agree with all you said, except the summon thing. If NOTHING else, the option to skip Knights of the Round animation would be nice. I mean come on, it seems the punishment for using it is having to watch it more than the health increases for the final bosses.
Knights of the Round would be an exception, it’s like Sephiroth’s meteor summons it takes several minuets go though.
Maybe rework and retool the summons to be visually updated they make Knights of the round animation not take like 5 minuets.
Maybe after you watched the whole animation once you got the option to skip by pressing X or something
I was more apposed to having new summons. Final Fantasy 7 is already summons heavy. More summon monsters exist in 7 then it did in 10.
FF7 Summons: 16
FF X Summons: 8
(Note FF6 has 27)
Lately RPGs have become 20 - 40 hour games while Final Fantasy 7 was easily 70 hours to play though.
I don’t want the diet cola of RPGs I want the all you can eat with free refills of your preferred drink.
Eh…I was kind of hoping they’d integrate a playable version of Advent Children at least since it still centers around the group and Sephiroth. Could easily be put in as an optional epilogue of sorts…I guess dlc even though I’d like it on the disc. The could include a synopsis cutscene for the events of Crisis Core or just integrate it into the story via flashbacks at different intervals of the game…sort of how Laguna and co were handled in VIII. Dirge is kinda whatever for me…if they can redo it with FF VII’s battle system and make it optional dlc then I’m cool with that. Before Crisis I can’t remember much about…so I’m gonna have to read to see how much impact that game has on the story.
Which is why I said if the do it to just make it an optional epilogue. That way If people don’t want their experience ‘tainted’ by AC or Dirge then they can ignore it. Crisis Core though is pretty important so I’d like them to find some way to integrate more of that in.
-Remove the 500 years ending
-Remove the zack plot and just make cloud have zack’s story instead
-Don’t make this a shitty modern action RPG and instead make it a true turn based RPG that goes back to the pure basics of the genre/franchise
-Aerith and the ending depending on how well you play therefore I suggest multiple endings. If you play well aerith doesn’t get killed and the good ending has her and cloud end up together
-Don’t change the looks too drastically or make the art style too anime
Suck it. There no reason to even have them included.
Final Fantasy VII is already a 70+ hour RPG, how much more content do you need?
And if you follow the plot of FF VII you don’t get to the truth what happen prior to until the 3rd disk
Plot spoiler
Spoiler
Cloud goes missing, and he turns up a vegetable in some hospital
And the lead character role switches to Tifa as she has to figure out what happen to Cloud and how his PTSD + Mako exposure
made him manufacturer a false history where he adopts Zack’s past life as his own. And what made it worst is Cloud’s Mako poisoning effects other people who sorta knew him to also accept this false history.
We really do not need Aegis and Genesis from Crisis Core, you are just diluting the original Plot.
There nothing Aegis and Genesis could really provide, maybe could of been that support Sephiroth needed (as Seph has no other friends)
when he stumbled across those documents in the Spencer Mansion Shinra Mansion and loose his shit. Then have the mother of all mother complexes and steals Jenova’s head.
Fine leave Advent Children as a epilogue post story section. It probability be DLC any ways.
And there no reason to include anything from Dirge of Cerberus, it really adds nothing of value.
Vincent went emo when his Wife gave bith to a human/alien hybrid we call Wesker Sephiroth.
Motherfucker… The only games LW has played and beaten more of than that list are the ones with Legend of Zelda in the title… and I’ve still played and beaten more of those than him.
That quick list ain’t even 10% of all the games I’ve played and beaten… Don’t fuck with me simply because I hate that overrated piece of shit game and its annoying as fuck fanbase that hasn’t shut the fuck up about that overrated shit for the last nearly two decades.
Fucking wack ass game getting a remake, while Viewtiful Joe is left to rot and niggas gotta go through hell and high water to line the pockets of Looten Plunder, er, I mean Keiji Inafune to get a motherfucking Mega Man fix…
