Mark’s Conplaystasy

You run the same course over and over and over and over and over. There are a few different courses. Each course is a 2 minute long roller coaster ride at around walking speed. And everything is the exact same each and every single time. Like playing Night Trap on Sega CD.

One of the most beautiful movies I have ever watched. Great soundtrack, magic, mystery, tension, and emotional feel throughout.

This game is so darn pretty. It looks great. Detail is there. Music is top notch. I love the mini games. But... You have quintuplets and sextuplets of NPC’s all in the same area and it makes it look as if the game ran out of human character models. The backgrounds looks... cardboard’ish. Summons are now restricted to specific battles only. And instead of focusing on the magic and abilities like the original FFVII did, this game makes you focus on hacking and slashing and dodging if you want the most out of it. Which makes you look a lot less at the actual beauty of the game. This game does not have the same “magic” that the original did. It instead replaced it with button mashing.
