Final Fantasy VII: Sequel.

July 1, 2008, 1:16 AM

Hi, Eternity here, I was just thinking about something. About what if there was a FF VII Sequel. Something where Cloud gets behind the wheel again and takes the place of main character. I am sure SE could think of some plot idea that would work. Speaking realisticly if there was a sequel I couldn't see it even being annouced till like 2011. Why? you might ask: The reason is because as you all know SE is working on FF XIII, FFV XIII and FF XIII Agito. And Nomura stated that after the FF XIII's were done he would start focusing on the KH's series again. Now I am sure atleast a handful of you know SE is working on 3 new KH's games called Birth By Sleep, 358/2 Days, and Coded. I saw SE new's things saying BBS would ship before it turned 2009(for JPN)
Now just speculation here but I could see maybe then summer 2009 for BBS in the US. Assuming the other games will already be out as Nomura said BBS would probably be released last. Now you are probably thinking what does this have to do with a Sequel to FF VII?

It has to do because of the timing of when it would be annouced. Why so late as 2011? The answer is because as I stated above Nomura said after FF he would be focusing on KH's again. But 3 new games have already come out what else is there? you ask. This is where the continuation of Sora's adventure continues. I dont know that, that is what it would be but it is safe to assume that would be it. See, people expected the continuation of Soras adventure much sooner than it is turning out to be. It's like they expected another Sora game and got the 3 new games instead. But it's not like these games are just filler so SE can have some time to think up ideas for Soras next adventure. No the new games I believe are basicly answering a bunch of questions that were created with the previous games and maybe even setting up for the next game after those. I think Soras next game will be annouced most likely in 2009 or something.

Sorry about that lol, but it the branching off way off the original topic to another topic was to explain stuff that is needed to know about the first topic. I broke it up so it wouldn't burn your eyes. Okay back on topic.

Yes there is more XD

If SE began making making the next Kh's game in 2009 it would give them two years to make it so then it would come out in earily 2011 then while fans are still in the hype of the KH's game SE annouces the Sequel to FFVII featuring Cloud as the main character. Then typical SE waits for like 6 months without any sort of news relating to the game whatsoever then they release tidbits of info at the E3 then finally the TGS comes around and they release a bucket full of news things like:

-The System-
The Name-
The Story-

aND then they have a Closed Mega Theater trailer that gets leaked in the US like a year later and by that time SE has already released another trailer in JPN you know the drill lol.

Okay tell me what you guys think.

FFVII already had a sequel: Advent Children

(Though I guess you could count Dirge of Cerebus)

No I really hope there is no more FFVII games, movies, TV series, whatever...

Really the game has lost most of it's appeal for me because of half the crap that they are releasing with it. It's gotten to the point that even the most minor characters are suddenly major characters and have to have their own games. And they completely ruined the ambiguity of the ending. :(

FVII has squeles and prequels, what REALLY people want is a remake.

Hmmm I suppose what I ment was a game where Cloud was the main characrer again not exactly a sequel. I suppose I should have said that.

Ew no, there was already a sequel in Advent Children playable or not it was still a sequel with Cloud as the main character, I 'm pretty sure SE could think of something, but chances are it would just be rubbish. I fail to see what else could be covered although tbh, I wouldn't rule it out or be shocked if they did do another game

I'd just rather they didn't bother

I think your post should have stopped right there.

And like everyone else has said, FF VII already has sequels really and Cloud was the main character in Advent Children. Quite frankly, I think FF VII has been done to death. I can't even play the original anymore I'm so sick of it. So no, for the love of all that is good and holy, no more FF VII games.

aw shit this for a sequel i thought this was for a remake so i said yes
man i feel like an idiot

No...more...sequels. I'm actually starting to HATE FFVII after all the crap they released. They couldn't have just left it alone and kept it as the great game it was, but now...it's practically dead to me. So no, I dont want to see another sequel/prequel or another "This is what happened while Cloud and the gang were going after Sephiroth..." game/movie/anime...EVER!...unless it's a remake!

Wow, what a very insightful thread you've made. You spent two paragraphs informing us of all the upcoming SE titles. And your poll option "Wow! this seems very well thought out!,Nice job, and I would love a sequel" strikes me as slightly conceited. It's as if you're expecting us to commend you on making a pointless thread telling us things we already knew.

And what, pray tell, do you think we're going to think is well thought out? That you told us about all their upcoming releases? That you figured out it would take them a long time to get to anything else VII-related because they're so busy? It doesn't take alot to figure that out.

Now as for a VII sequel, I think we've had enough of that. There was already Advent Children and Dirge of Cerberus, and since Crisis Core has come out pretty much all the loose ends have been tied up. I doubt they'll be doing anything else for a good while, and they're more likely to do a remake of VII than make a third sequel.

No. Freakin. Way.

If it was a remake, fine.
but no more bloody different story's in the same world with the same charachters. Id SE DOES do this.. ill throw eggs at them.

The original game was enough.
although i do love Crisis Core
