@@larryfisherman6835 You say that but what if you lose or forget your password and they decide your info is not good enough to give it back. What if they decide to lock you out of your account. I have very little to no trust in humans and their capabilities to always be fair or just. I might sound like a rambling lunatic but give a few years and you'll get it. Also, I'm just now getting these replies.(way to go youtube....)
This killed off any excitement I felt when the expansion was announced. I like how if you own the game you get the upgrade for free... but locking the content behind a hardware paywall sucks
@@ravenheart2752 That's a fair point. But I feel that this still could have worked on the ps4 or pro hardware with a bit of tweaking. I might be just jaded, but I feel this is a direct move to sell new copies or force hardware sales.
@@ravenheart2752 It could have worked. FFVII remake works fine, so anyone who thinks that the game couldn't work is an idiot. It is because they want to maximize their PS5 sales.
@@taylorjoseph15 just like how they can easily port over Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2 to the Switch without an issue. Even KH 3 can be ported over as there are plenty of triple a games like Witcher 3, Alien Isolation, Dying Light, Doom Eternal, Dragon Quest on the switch.
The upgrade is only able to be done on PS5. Just try to play this game in 4K on a PS4, watch your console die. The Yuffie episode is paid AND is PS5 exclusive, which is admittedly a bit shitty.
@@Coproquim I was just about to say that was a dick move on there part too lmao. Like why make dlc exclusive to a system people can barely even find? The graphics being "too much for ps4" is just a way for people to excuse square being assholes smh
@@murasakino101 you're only saying that cause you haven't played it yet. As someone who played it on PS5 there is absolutely no way it would've looked or played the same on PS4. They improved a LOT of stuff within the engine that most people wouldn't understand. Square is all about using the best technology available at any given time
From what I've read and understood. If you have a PS5 and a purchased copy of the game you will get the PS5 upgrade for free..however the additional DLC will still need to be purchased on top of that.
What I typically see people think a "remake" is, is basically devs just remastering a game to be like modern games, they never take a step back to realize that, it is called a remake, because it's in a way a new game, the devs can alter events and things in the game if they want to and how they want to. Another great example is the Resident Evil 2 remake, that also had huge changes like the tyrant chasing the player around Nemesis style. It really is so odd that there still is people out there that mistakes a remake for a remaster and then getting mad because a remake isn't a direct one to one carbon copy of its source material made to just look better.
Remake - means it's the same game, with slight differences.. I don't want to spoil so I won't say who.. 2 ppl who die in the original are now alive in the remake - in my opinion due to popular demand by fans 😂 Plus, Vincent doesn't join your party in the remake but he joined ur party in the original.. theres a few other examples, like I said.. same game with key differences 😅😂 I still own my playstation and sometimes play the original FFVII mainly so I have Vincent in my party 😅😂
So my question is... these developers make stuff ps5 exclusive but do they know majority of us are having a hard time getting a ps5? Like majority of us would LOVE to get the console but it’s still out of stock so thanks but I can’t play what you made for us cause the console is sold out
Yeah but the PS5 needs games too. Doesn’t matter who can or can’t play them yet… Also it’s not like you’re never gonna get one. It’s a mass-produced system.
It’s kind of silly that they are making Yuffie exclusive to the PS5, since it’s near impossible to get that console anywhere right now. With how few they made and how high in demand it is, as well as the bots the scalpers use buying them all, it will take a long while before enough people really can get the console before it being an exclusive is justifiable. But I will say it’s nice that the people who bought the game can get the free upgrade, even though it’s kinda odd to me that people who get it free from PSN won’t be able to do that. I would say Microsoft hasn’t done that with any of their free games, but I can’t think of an example, if they have any at all.
@@mr.stuffdoer8483 true, but I think developers are keeping in mind the number of people who have a ps5, so third party companies most likely don’t have to be exclusive to just one of the new systems unless it can be played on the previous gen as well. Outside of first party devs of course, but that’s kind of obvious. Also I just learned that Sony is sticking to their idea of charging a full $70 for a new game, while Microsoft has confirmed they are sticking to $60. That’s going to make people want to get that console even less now, or get the new Xbox instead since they have backwards for all previous gens, pc support, sticking to $60 for a new game, strong rewards programs, and, of course, Game Pass. So sales for the Ps5 will be even less because of that. Thus one more reason the Yuffie dlc should be on PS4 as well. It makes sense profit-wise!
@@KHMDarkness PlayStation already has more than double the sales of Xbox and counting. Xbox still has no exclusives out yet and by the time Forza and Halo (online only) make it to Game Pass you’d probably pay the amount of those games with the months you’ve subscribed waiting. Xbox is not as consumer friendly as they and their fans are pretending they are. Locking your fans into a meme subscription service and giving them nothing but last generation titles, even older titles, and indies that can also be played on PC is an absolute joke. Pair that with still having to pay for select AAA titles... what even is the difference at this point? Xbox is robbing their fans and giving them zero content in the process. (but bro they got so many 120 FPS boosted games like ‘Totally Reliable Delivery Service’ and ‘Untitled Goose Game’ way more than Sony!!1) PlayStation is being honest, and while nobody is stoked on a 70 dollar exclusive, they constantly have sales (Demons Souls, Sackboy, Returnal were like 50 bucks recently.. Immortals Fenyx Rising was 25) to make up for it. PlayStation has delivered next-gen games, a next-gen feel/sound experience, and will have a bunch more titles releasing before Xbox even gets started. Unless it’s the Series S and it’s a super casual console for children or for people that don’t game often, Xbox is an absolute waste of money and buying one in the first place is silly when a half decent PC can outperform it Do I sound Sony fanboyish? Sure. But I like playing new games on a new console that took me forever to hunt down. Imagine waiting 3 months to hunt down a Series X just to play Gears 3 and Injustice 2? Rough
Finally got a chance to play intermission, Yuffie's combat is absolutely stellar only Tifa comes close from the pt 1 crew. I was going to use Yuffie as much as possible through the remake anyway as she's so funny and charismatic but this is the cherry on top.
So basically when it's all said and done were going to need 3 different games and 8 different DLC mission content to experience an akward FF7 remake story telling?
No, 1 thing you made mote confusing. I buyed the digital version of the game at release. Only physical was mention here for the upgrade. I am sure that was a error, I will get the upgrade for PS4 digital version.
Sorry, at the time of writing we were not 100% sure so didnt want to give out wrong information but it does appear that if you did buy a PS4 digital copy you will also get the update for free on PS5
This is the first numbered Final Fantasy game where the level cap is not 99 or 100, it is 50. The reason for this is probably because the game ends early in the FF7 story and it wouldn't be correct if the players were too overpowered so early on. Voice acting debuts of Briana White and Cody Christian This is the very first 3D Final Fantasy game to be given a remake (not remastered like FF12, FFX, FF8). Final Fantasy 3 and 4 were also given remakes but they were originally 2d games. Steve Burton was originally going to reprise his role as Cloud Strife for the remake. However, due to his voice not matching a younger version of the character, he was replaced with Cody Christian. His voice over work on the game can be heard in the PSX 2015 trailer.
I think that's for digital ps5 owners only that didn't buy the game before. The game is usually like 50 on PS4 but guessing cause the dlc isn't free that's why it's 70. So if you have a disk ps5 with a cheap copy of the game you cheat the system😂
@@Hatsune_mikuxX to be fair you could it's just that you can't upgrade with that and playing the game on 4k or even 60fps is definitely gonna make the experience even more awesome. I'll start my next playthrough on the ps5 that's for sure
@@hagiebenkrishna6358 Yeah the remake is my first FF. Got it from Ps Plus and fell in love with it. Loaded all the roms for my Gba already and will buy the other ps4 parts because they are all on discount right now. And i also want to enjoy the remake and add on on ps5 mostly because i want to play it with my soundsystem which is impossible with the ps4s jet engine😂
It is a complete game. This is like saying Xenosaga isn't a complete game because the full story is released in parts. Yet each one is over 60 hours, the first can take over 80, the third, over 120 easily. Or Ys isn't a complete game because each subplot of Adol is a separate game. Just because this is taking an original storyline, and splitting it into larger individual titles, does not make for a good argument this is an incomplete game, when it very well fills the gaps with enough story and things to do, to make for a full game. Funny story, the original idea for the game was Midgard alone, with detective Cloud helping out Tifa find a murderer. That became Midgard alone, with Cloud, Tifa, and Aeris, then Barret was added, then Sephiroth became the main villain (was initially meant to be a mentor). Then mid-way in production, they expanded it outward. Why Disc 1 was about 70% gameplay Midgard, but about 80% story. It's an episodic game. Hardly the only one. Now if they didn't have adequate content, or adequate story, or adequate numbers of things to do, that was worth my time, then sure, you'd have a point. Since they do, you sound like a petulant child, whining over having to pay more for extra stuff. You want HD FF7, that already exists. FF7 was the phenom that put SE on the map world wide, and made RPG's a standard bear in gaming, and even Western gaming studios give it credence for building a larger general audience, just as much as Diablo 2 did. At least in the US. Europe was always a haven for Western RPG's. I used to think like you did, but only until I played. I don't like much of the new content, though most of it is the way that content was altered from the original context of the storyline, which IS a valid complaint. So if you don't like HOW they implemented the new material, and the remake part 1, beyond "game is incomplete as it's not the full FF7 experience," then sure, that's valid and comes off as sophisticated. EDIT: sorry about the initial insult at the start. That was uncalled for, but it is a rather dumb argument.
Somehow I lucked out and have a hard copy of the FF7 Remake Deluxe Edition plus a PS5 already but still feel bad they are charging $69.99 for an upgrade/DLC.
I hope part 2 has ray tracing at 60fps. I feel like it’s possible in this kind of game bc it’s mostly closed environments. Also higher fidelity textures.
@@farrel_ra Google raytracing. It makes video games look fucking amazing but unfortunately will severely limit your FPS. I'm hoping that when the PS6 generation comes around we'll FINALLY be able to have raytracing and 60+ FPS at the same time
Thinking that FF7R2 is coming out next year is overly optimistic. Also, what are you talking about? You can definitely upgrade for free if you have the digital copy. The only version you cannot upgrade is the PS Plus version. But if you actually BOUGHT the game digitally, you can upgrade for free.
Sorry, at the time of writing we were not 100% sure so didnt want to give out wrong information but it does appear that if you did buy a PS4 digital copy you will also get the update for free on PS5
"This isn´t part 2 which will probably come out in 2022." Oh how I´d wished... now we are talking winter 23 with delays already in sight. It´s ridiculous. And it would have totally being doable in one game! If I look at 15, you could have done 7 in the size of this game. Or am I really in the wrong here and we need 3 parts?
I’ll be playing this next week finally. College has been kicking my ass but my reward is worth it in the end and during break I get to try and play and finish this game.
Correct me if im wrong, (and a spoiler to anyone if they haven't played the remake). Isn't it the Wutai armies are the one who helped Cloud, Biggs and Wedge in Shinra Factory? Maybe Yuffie or the other guy are one of them. Maybe there's a mission about that in yuffie dlc.
How can anyone afford £70 games that is so ridiculous? Proof that having only one online store on your platform is bad for the consumer and physical discs should always be supported to keep the market more free.
You did not even mention! if you bought the digital deluxe version when it came out. Do i get the update for free. And can i play the new content. And yes have ps5!
It's a free upgrade to anyone who purchased it (digital or physical), simple as that. There's no need to complicate things. You also didn't mention that the Yuffie episode is available with the Intergrade bundle while previous owners have to buy it separately (not included with the free upgrade) Guys, you had one job smh.
@@Hato1992 I think lack of actual consoles is the bigger problem because if there isn't enough PS5 players to buy a PS5 only product then the sales will flop and companies will abandon games because of perceived disinterest. If square spends money to make this dlc and only 100k people buy it (only 4 million out of the 115 million ps4 players bought remake which is abysmal. If you apply that percentage to the much smaller group of 7 million PS5s it's barely 150k sales which is a failure) the sales will flop and they will scale down the next part because why spend more money when not enough people buy the dlc for it to make a profit
Because probably it's not that "story essential". They'll meet in the next chapter anyways, and she'll probably will say something related to this DLC as an eater egg... and that's all. I'm happy to be able to play as her sooner, though.
@@rafafc4127 so all the post end game scenes with cloud and zack on the dlc aren't essential? Seeing them head towards kalm town isn't essential? It's not just yuffie in the dlc lol
Ok but riddle me this:. I have a ps5 and the PS4 physical copy with the disk inserted, but when I goto download the upgrade it says "you cannot upgrade right now." it's June 11th.
Sorry, at the time of writing we were not 100% sure so didnt want to give out wrong information but it does appear that if you did buy a PS4 digital copy you will also get the update for free on PS5
Wait what I bought ffvii remake digital on PS4, and now own Ps5, do I not get the upgrade free? I also own physical version but hate disc swapping so would rather use the digital version I own.
I've downloaded to PS5 in my using my physical PS4 copy but it still says I have to buy the content intermission. And the game doesn't boot up showing integrated in the title
I have the ps4 version because I got it for free from ps plus on my PS5 and was wondering do I have to play the intergrade version or is it not important since it's not the same game just better graphics. I want to make sure I'm all set before playing Rebirth. I know intergrade has a dlc but I'm considering watching a full gameplay of it.
FF7R and FF7R Intergrade are the same game. If you owned FF7R previously, it's updated to Intergrade. Also you should just buy InterMission and play the Yuffie DLC for $20, worth it. Better than just watching gameplay.
@@apachers2807 Thank you so much, I was confused they were both different, I will definitely be getting the dlc and I'm so excited for final fantasy rebirth
So if I get intergrade on steam for PC that is all of what they have for remake so far for VII? It sounds like this is a pre FFVII story or something? the reviews are confusing.
Kick in the teeth for the people who bought it on launch. People where upset enough that it wasn't the full game. I get that the next instalment will be on 5 but what amounts to DLC on a new console sucks.
If i currently have a ps5, but i got the free game thru the ps plus free game, if i were to buy the digital or disk, do i get the intergrade dlc? Or do i need to buy it from the store still?
Please help me figure this out guys. I just got a ps5 23 JULY. On my ps4 I did buy the digital download version of ffvii remake. However, I also bought a physical copy of the deluxe edition, and the first class edition. 1st class edition is staying in the box. If I open the physical deluxe edition and use the disc, will I get the new stuff? I even did the butterfinger thing and got the special bangles etc.
The Yuffie DLC costs money, no matter what. $20 USD for Yuffie DLC and $10 for an (optional) cactuar weapon. After upgrading to the PS5 version of the game (for free, in my case) I realized I have to buy the DLC also.
People really need to stop saying, Purchasing a PS5 doesn’t make the dlc free. The PS5 isn’t just for this upgrade. There are many games to come for the system. Buy said console is future investment, Eventually people are going to have Next Gen and make the PS4 obsolete. Sony is just moving along without having the PS4 holding them back. Also this DLC is a test for the née mechanics without limiting next installment.
I was more hyped when I saw the original Final Fantasy VII for sale on the psn store. I was already on the fence about remake being done over multiple games and having to wait years and years to get more of the story. But doing character episode dlc is just annoying. I wasn’t a fan of it when they did it with FFXV and even though it’s FFVII, I’m still not a fan
Bought the original version on the PS4 got the PS5 got the free upgrade but still actually had to pay for the integrade DLC nobody got that for free buddy
So just out of curiosity, how long will the story mission be? Is this Yuffie story mission going to be like Bowsers Fury where it can be completed within a few hours?
Correct me if I'm wrong but I think the second section of this video is completely off. Remake Integrade (with the new episode content) is NOT FREE for ANYONE. Only the Remake PS5 ENHANCEMENT UPDATE is free for people who have the game purchased already. (PS+ version won't be getting the enhancement update) Tldr; PS5 Enhancement update is not the same as Remake Integrade - which is basically another game/PAID DLC
Will this game have completely turn bsded mode ? And if that's the case, is there a video about the new gameplay ? Or does the regular game ff7 remake already has the turn based ? I played it on real time
Hold on was intergrade meant to be free? I got the upgrade for free but the dlc cost extra for me with a physical ps4 copy. Just annoying that it attempts the ps4 version copy every time you insert the disk
I’m in the same boat. But according to the video and articles I’ve read, we would need to buy the new PS5 version at $70 or buy the PS4 disk version for sale to then get the free upgrade in June. Walmart has it on sale right now for $30. But idk if it’s worth paying the $30 to play it in 3 months when I could just play it now for free. Hopefully this helped.
I know the story of FFVII is interesting, but from the videos I've seen I don't understand what the gameplay is like. Is the combat system similar to that of FFX or is it more similar to that of FFX-2 or the more modern FFXVII? From what I remember, FFVII is much more similar to that of FFX, with turn-based combat... so I'm very undecided whether to take it or not, obviously I would take it on PC, because, unfortunately, I don't have the PS5.
Typical Nomura - the dog was a terrier not a beagle on the chip bag so people are leaning he is ‘alive’ in a parallel world. He did die before FFVII, you are right.
The thing that puts me off playing this is knowing its not even the full game. I'm hesitant to spend so much time just for it to end without conclusion. I've completed it before and that's how I felt with it. Maybe with rebirth around the corner I'll run through it again.
I bought the digital deluxe copy and I have a PS5 do I still get to upgrade for free? I also have a physical copy too but it’s at my family home so I would rather not have to make the journey to get it.
if your intention was to buy a PS5 anyways, and you already owned FF7 remake, then you can get FF7 Remake Intergrade for free there is nothing subjective about that.
