We had a new Final Fantasy game come out last week. I haven’t had much time to play it, but I can tell you that it is another retelling of Final Fantasy VII. Is it worth playing if you’ve already played the original and the Remake? I’m saying that yes it will be.
Ever Crisis will be diving deeper into the characters backstories. I know for sure, we’ll be seeing Sephiroth’s rise through Shinra, as I believe we’re getting a whole part dedicated to Sephiroth. Part you ask? Yes, Ever Crisis is separated into 3 parts at the moment. Final Fantasy VII, Crisis Core, and The First Soldier.
You’ll start off playing the story you already know, and when you reach a certain point in the story, you will be allowed to play the other parts as well.
So, far I’m still in Midgar.
I don’t know how fast I’ll be able to get through the story, but I’ll be telling you all about my thoughts when I get a chance to.
Like now.
Somewhat Spoilers.
The game does start off with the Bombing Mission. I was not excited about this part. I was hoping that they would just start the game at the very beginning. Only problem with that would be without Cloud, Tifa and the rest of the gang, Square Enix wouldn’t be making much money on the pulls, as no one would be spending money on getting a different costume for Glenn.
The game play is pretty similar to the original, but it’s hard for me to play games without a controller in my hands. I just can’t get into them for some reason. Maybe that’s just a sign of old age.
After the bombs go off, we all separate meet Aerith, buy a flower, run from Shinra, grab a drink with Tifa, tell Barret to bug off, and we head off to Bomb another Reactor.
In which we do.
Until next time, I’ll be laying down on the flower bed, in the Sector 5 church.
