FFVII : Love It or Hate It?

[Aerius Sygale]

Love it, because it has the best cast of characters of any Final Fantasy game by far in my honest opinion. It also has a really good soundtrack, story, battle system, and gameplay in general, the only thing I really don't like is Cait Sith...

But every game has something to hate, no? For Final Fantasy VII, to me, that thing is the character Cait Sith. Annoying as heck, and stole almost all of Nanaki's chances to have a line in Advent Children...but that's just part of the challenge of it, as I see it. xD

I couldnt stand yuffie she really wound me up! I liked vincent and cloud so much as they get along so well!

Its like an unspoken bond between them, coming from the same kind of back ground at Shinra.Inc they have the inside edge in fighting the Corperation.

Anyway, I'm not sure I can articulate just what kind of difference this game has made to my gaming life, its just really great, really really great.....really!

Its like the best adventure FF game in the series, it ticks all of my boxes in terms of:

Characters
Story & Plot
Materia
Battle Dynamics

It may sound Fanboy, but whatever its what I wanted to say.:seph:

Love it. Have to agree with the lovers in here, for the same reasons. Although, I suppose one of the main contributing factors to my love for Final Fantasy VII is the music and battle system. They are just spot on. I have this infatuation with materia, so much so that I was prepared to buy some fake materia memoribilia off ebay.

the only problem i had witht his game was the first time through i was so lost with the grafics lol that may just be me being picky but graphics help a game alot in my opinion lol but all in all a great game luved cloud reno and cait sith XD

I love it, it is a awesome game to play. The reason I love Final Fantasy VII is because of it's epic storyline. It also has well developed characters, great music, great plot and a unique battle system. It is the greatest Final Fantasy game of all times!

Who could hate 7. This was the best game in the series IMO. I have to say out of all of the villains in FF:seph: was the best. Although :seymour: takes a close second. I think that there were a few things that could have been improved about cloud but not much. I liked how (mostly) everything was explained at the beginning of the game. Yeah defiantly love it.

(Personally, I think you guys should have been expecting this post as soon as I got out of Survivor. )

It's no secret at all that I hate this game. Yes, I played it when it first came out, and no, I didn't find it great even then. Everything about this game screams mediocre. I didn't like the cast of characters, and to this day, I find the story to be rather bland. Even the graphics, which are held to such high standards, weren't the greatest, even for its time. (Mind you, for its time, it had good graphics, they just weren't the best.)

Gameplay was pretty solid, but I didn't like the Materia system. It wasn't broken or anything, I just didn't like the concept of it.

Not only that, the game is massively overrated. 10+ years later and I'm still having to dig through fanwank all the time. Sure, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but if I so much as say "I don't like FFVII", you get people jumping out of the woodwork to fucking kill me. (So far, only one or two people from FFF have pulled this. However, on other forums, flame shield has to be up at all times.)


I could go on and on, but every argument I have against the game, I've posted somewhere else before.

If you want me to go on, to go more in depth, I'll be more than happy to type up a huge 3 page essay on it tomorrow.

Love it....
2nd game im play after ff8.....

I absolutely loved it. I love how bittersweet the story was for Cloud. I loved the music, the battle system, the characters, and the tragic story.

It's just a great game. I bought it twice, got the game guide, and I played it over and over again so many times. Heck, I'd be playing it now if my PS2 loaded the damn game.

I think I love it just because how different of a game it is. I had never played one like it before and I just really loved it. I can't lie, though. The thing that got me into the game was Cloud and Aerith after I saw Kingdom Hearts I.

But after I started a game I just fell in gamer-love <33

I love it. The characters were all unique and interesting with their own stories. The battle system was one of the best in the series.(It would be the best, but I don't really like the materia system.) The villians were awesome, namely :seph: :seph::seph: and Shinra Inc. was pretty cool to. The main problem (barely a problem at all) was the materia system.
The game had a perfect balance between happy and sad (and epic) moments and is a true masterpeice.

(Also, sorry for the color change, but I felt like copy/pasting the Sephiroth picture from The Chosen One's post XD)
