even playing this for the first time 22 years later, it is great. what struck me most is how different it is from what the developed fandom led me to believe. I was under the impression it was a game about an emo kid who falls in love with a flower girl. instead, it has a giant laser named after a Velvet Underground song, and Cloud and Tifa have sex before the final battle. in other words, it rules, and it's a shame JRPGs went towards what people thought FF7 was rather than what it actually is.

Fair to state that I am still, 20+ years later, infatuated with this game. This was my sole reason for acquiring a PS1 back then. It's probably the only game that I can go back to again and again, and it feels like coming home; it's an investment of time that feels as special each subsequent time as it did the first. Even today, turn-based combat doesn't bother me, and the Materia system may STILL be the best magic system in the franchise. Investing story, impressive villain. My gaming love.

Final Fantasy VII is certainly dated due to the inconsistent graphics. From a story point of view it is elevated beyond most of the titles in the long running series. The combat is fine and exactly what one would expect. Awards however should go to the game for its creation of a wonderfully complex and amazing villain: Sephiroth.

Once you get over the hideous graphics and try to ignore the terrible movies and spinoffs as much as possible, it's a great game that anyone who has even half an appreciation for RPGs should give it a play at least once. For a better experience try playing with the New Threat mod.

Freedom fighters or terrorists? You decide. An unlikable band of polygons fight back against the enigmatic villain in this classic Jrpg. Gameplay in this game is spot on, with the turn-based battle system being perfected, with a very interesting magic system that stacks on weapons and armour. Shame that the plot takes a dive into the well of insanity and rarely plunges up for air.

The first Final Fantasy many of us played. I loved the moody characters, the silly mini-games, the sideplots, and the epic battles. The tragedy of Aeris still bothers me. I remember finishing the game and wandering how she was coming back to life. A great JRPG, though not as good an entry as later renditions of FF.

I'm going to be that guy: I hate this game. I bought it launch day and it took me months to finish, not because it was hard, but because I put it down so much and I felt an obligation to finish it. I hated it so much I stopped playing video games altogether for six months. It's all over the place, the characters are cardboard cutouts, and the story is nonsensical. 20 years has not improved my opinion on this game and never will. Sorry to be contrarian.

Mechanically it's kind of shallow and overly basic, and the plot isn't particularly impressive either. Still, the game is one of the most visually interesting in the series and it has some of the most memorable characters in any FF game. Like Mario 64, it was one of the most defining video games of all time to the degree that it's often the first thing people associate with JRPGs. Aspects of it hasn't aged well, but it's worth playing just to oogle at how cool Midgard was.

I love everything from the great storyline to the sublime music. It's definitely my favorite game of all time, and my many fond memories of it have made me resolve to do two things: 1) To face the dastardly Sephiroth alongside Cloud, Tifa and the rest of the amazing characters in Midgard once again soon 2) To seriously consider quitting my day job and go into business as a full-time Chocobo trainer.

One of those games I played constantly as a kid. I loved it so much I was always looking to find secrets online on secret characters or things I might have missed and tried to do nearly every rumor despite how farfetched.

FOR ITS TIME, it was revolutionary. Great story, interesting characters, fun RPG, Neat and zany areas of its world, hours of content, and I love the 2D rendered background art. Minor bugs and repetitive battle music is a con.

Graphically maybe it doesn't hold up but back in the day the graphics were amazing. This deserves the praise it gets: the music and story are both incredible, with the latter being fairly deep. I like turn-based combat so it has never bothered me, and I thought maybe the materia system wouldn't hold up but I actually played this game last year for a while and it did. I have no issues with FF7, it was a turning point in games and is the best post-SNES Final Fantasy.

Still holds up today and in a recent play through I enjoyed it as much as ever. The design and sound is startlingly harmonious and the now aging battle system still has what it takes to challenge. Inseparable with MGS as my favourite game ever.
