I even played the original and didn’t remember that chariot dude. I thought that was something they added to the remake.

[u/IlikeJG → u/Madmonkeman]

It was just a regular enemy in original. But just like im remake you could steal an Aerith weapon from it. Strong weapon too for that point in the game.

[u/Overall_Cod2206 → u/Madmonkeman]

Yeah just like the big Hell House, they are just basic run in enemies that they turned into full blown boss fights.

[u/Madmonkeman → u/Overall_Cod2206]

Oh ok, that’s probably why I didn’t remember it.

[u/JP_Zikoro → u/Madmonkeman]

He is worth encountering since you can steal a very good early weapon for Aerith from him.

Ah, the nostalgia...

The pillar was so impressive to see in Remake. It always felt like a little staircase in the OG I never really grasped that it was literally holding up a plate and even the size of the plate itself was lost on me in the original design

[u/CatProgrammer → u/WessyNessy]

Midgar overall got a size boost. The plate was only 50m up in the original but 300m in Remake, iirc.

Thanks for your hard work I love these posts!

[u/Overall_Cod2206 → u/andytherooster]

Much appreciated, it's a really fun project to do.

Train graveyard was way too frickin long in Remake.

[u/barakisan → u/mikeysce]

In my first playthrough which was years ago it felt like it took forever, in my second which is a few days ago it felt like it ended quickly, how come?

[u/Massive_Weiner → u/mikeysce]

Every sequence was stretched out unnecessarily long, lol. That’s the Remake series in a nutshell.

[u/mikeysce → u/Massive_Weiner]

True, but I sincerely enjoyed it for the most part. But that Train Graveyard and the Shina Mansion in Rebirth (especially the solo Cait Sith part)… Boooooooring….

[u/whydoesitmake → u/Massive_Weiner]

Yeah but it’s fantastic and I’m glad they are doing it like that

[u/Massive_Weiner → u/whydoesitmake]

Different strokes.

[u/FordsJennifer]

Looks atmospheric

[u/bizarrequest]

Oh man I missed the other threads!

[u/Overall_Cod2206 → u/bizarrequest]

You can still scroll through the others, part 2 isn't available anymore unfortunately because it was taken down by the mods. I haven't heard if they have made it to where everyone can see it again yet.

[u/UltraNoahXV → u/bizarrequest]

[u/Overall_Cod2206 → u/UltraNoahXV]

Appreciate you homie.

[u/sstefano87]

Great job! Like it a lot

[u/Overall_Cod2206 → u/sstefano87]

Thank you, it's a blast to do.

[u/apieceofeight]

So good

[u/Reluctant_Millenial]

Looks like the recent original release with smoothed polygons

[u/Unhinged_Gamer]

my critical self wants to talk about how much more incredible the remake looks in comparison. my nostalgia brain says NOPE! CLASSIC FOREVER!

[u/MissLilianae]

Seeing these makes me want to skip my playthrough of OG7 and jump straight into 7 Remake/Rebirth.

I played OG7 like 20 years ago when I was only 8 or 9 so I barely remember anything from it, but seeing the new graphics in the remakes is jaw dropping!

Podcast series comparing Remake to original

[u/WeirdIndividualGuy → u/TheHarborym]

Shameless plug

[u/vhs1138]

Bright colors to show depth to distinguish backgrounds, recognizable silhouettes of characters and a complete story? Is there nothing the OG doesn’t do better?

[u/Zoomy-333]

I hated how Remake did the scene in the first screencap, with both ladies an equidistant amount from Cloud. Had a very unsubtle "oooh which one are you gonna choose?" vibe to it the OG didn't have.
