Just a question. Have you got the urge to play through Final Fantasy 7 again? Like you want to relive a scene or kill a dude again, because its fun, or you just feel like "saving the world" once again?! lol.

Strange that this thread should come up shortly after i change my sig.

I want to play through again becuase I want to beat it at lower levels

sadly my FFVII is in a different time zone.

Something like that happened to me once. Only it was FF6 not FF7. one day i left for a couple days, and i found out it was stolen or somethen. a sad day, that was

I'm not too sure if I want to. Since I'm used to the 2d Final Fantasy era, FF7, FF8, and FF9 would now just bore me because of the uber long scenes and FMVs. I don't really have that much patience anymore for the PlayStation FFs anymore (Except for FF Tactics, which I might play sometime. I left it for a loooong time.)

I played it twice, and am still in a solo challenge, but it unfortunately isn't one of the ones with great replay value. It's a shame.

Yes I could play FFVII again. Yet I would have no fun at all since I already completed the it 3-4 times. I might as well sell my game or give it away because the last time I touched it was to make my Lucky 7s FAQ.

And on the ~20 games that I played on the PSX, that one is not in the top ten. Well at least it's over FFVIII's place.

I haven't played it in a long while, but I felt the urge to re-play it jus' for old times' sake after I saw AC for the first time. I'm currently at the part where you just received the buggy.

No.

Aside from some of the older-older ones (and tactics), I seem to be pretty much done playing console RPGs.

Oh noes! Teh MSN Space!

I get the urge to play through a lot of games; for FF7, it's due to the musical experience rathern than plot intrigue or battling. I haven't finished the script I've been typing on it, so I've been deliberately avoiding all thoughts of taking it back up until I've the time. No sense cheating on myself with myself.

It's gonna be a glorious day
I feel my luck can change

I am doing it now...well, kinda

I beat it a few years ago, but I forgot a lot in the meantime and I'm killing it once again, although I haven't played in a while and I'm barely at the end of disc I ^^;

Good old CoN

Maybe. I haven't played in a while, but I don't have a PS or the game right now, and I want a Wii, so unless I emulate it or play on another person's console, that won't be for a while.

Dead Winter. A nice comic.

I haven't gotten through the game even once yet, but I doubt I'll be entertained enough by FFVII to replay it anytime soon after I finish a first playthrough.

So far, the only RPG I have played to completion more than once is Super Mairo RPG. Not even Pokémon. Not even FFVI, despite i90east's expert versions. Not even Chrono Trigger, unless you count early endings via New Game +.

I feel that the game often progresses too slowly for my liking. Battle sequences are entered, animated, and ended too slowly, and the fact that cutscenes aren't skippable is something I dislike. Additionally, the materia system presents a huge temptation to powerlevel, and the minigames feel more for-the-sake-of-a-cool-feature than actually-coherent-to-the-game. Third, the way random battles are presented feels kinda strange--i.e., walking around a very realistic-looking world but then running into strange swirlings into battles every few steps where there appears to be nothing.

Additionally, I don't have a way to turbo the game. With SNES and GB/GBA games, I can use a turbo button to speed through things I don't like to wait through when I play them on emulator. Neither the PC version nor PS emulators have such a feature I'm aware of.

Check the "What games are you playing at the moment?" thread for updates on what I've been playing.

You can find me on the Fediverse! I use Mastodon, where I am @[email protected] ( https://sakurajima.moe/@glennmagusharvey )

It's just a wierd or just me? I have just recently, before I saw the forum, picked up my FFVII and started playing it. I don't have any reason why, probably just bored and needed something to do when i'm not working or cleaning the house. I am at the part where your in the Temple of the Ancients. Not bad game, just wish it had some better graphics. Oh, and especially not bad for the first try at a 3-D game.

Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Chrsit for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost

Acts 4:12

Matthew 28:19
Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost

It's like many other games I have played I guess. It sounds good at the moment, but when you start playing you realize how you have already done it 8 times before.

So for now? No thanks

I think i voted yes but surprisingly, no, not really. I think after you've tried getting to level 100, the fun sort of drains out of it as you forget the most memorable bits.

Maybe if i just force myself to start it over once more, i'll be converted back to it?

Out of pure bordness?
Sure I'll play it .
Gottta beat those 2 weapons wich i never botherd to do.

Yesterday is history, Tomorrow is mystery,
today is a gift, thats why we call it the present.

I'm completely over this game.I played it twice one after the other all tha way to the end.Only because somehow my game got erased .

I think I've played through it about 8 times. So it will be quite a few years before I consider playing it again. Hopefully they will have remade it by then.

'Let that be a lesson to all oppressive vegetable sellers.'

Every year since it caeme out I play it once. I already did this year back in April, I always tend to play old RPG's whenever I'm on the waiting period of a new one. I guess until next year, or maybe not, there will be no FF7 for me again, damn it I'm poisoning my head, now I wanna play it, but wait, no what is this I just found...

XENOGEARS, now that I will start playing again, for the third time!!!

"...quite possibly the greatest game ever made"

Yeah I must confess I adore playing it through - 8 or 9 times... But now that I've FINALLY got my hands on Xenogears and FFT, I'm going to complete them first.

Scepticism, that dry rot of the intellect, had not left one entire idea in his mind.

Me on the Starcraft.

yeah and this time id do other things like get a date with Barret lol

I always like to play games through more than once, because then I'll find things that I missed the first time, or make different parties and see what the characters that I didn't use the first time say to situations. I don't own FFVII, but I would love to play it again because there are certain parts that I could watch again and again.

I actually have a file on the go. I haven't worked on it in a while, though. (Haha, that rhymed!) I got distracted by FFIX. xD;;

FFVII...what can I say to you? I don't feel like we share that 'connection' anymore ya know? Like..we've grown apart. I mean, yeah we've had our good times, but in the long run we've had more bad than good. I just feel like we are in two different places right now and that maybe we should take some time to get focused. Oh..don't cry, just...it's not 'goodbye' it's more like..'later'.

This is a webcomic and gaming blog where I rant about nonsense. Enjoy.

I was a soldier, now I just play one in video games.

sob.. i desperately wish to replay the game, its been years since i have
but alas, i let my friend borrow it, and when he moved to north carolina, so did my FFVII

It was an awesome game, I have to admit, and it ranks up there in my top ten games, along with Final Fantasy Tactics, but to play it again, a second time... I guess that the only reason I might would be to try to get EVERYTHING in the game, ya know, beat all the Weapons, collect all the Materia, and get all the Limits, and master the whole Chocobo feature, but other than that no... I mean, maybe if I get that occasional jolt of inspiration after watching Advent Children, then ya, maybe, but other than those reasons, I wouldn't really consider it.

--------------------

We, who cannot see into tomorrow, have no way of knowing... But... But... If you don't find dreams yourself... if you don't capture your ambitions... happiness won't just come to you.

I've been going through it lately so i can help anyone with a problem. but after seeing all these next-gen consoles i just miss the old school. the first 3D Final Fantasy just makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside i might decide to max out the materia to get the ultimate materia instead of doing the quest for it lol. good to be back and playing.

--------------------

Remember the days were mages were Black or White or Red and Black Belts were cool? Well i bet you still hate the thief till he became the Ninja. I bet you do now lol it's great to be back

I just started playing it again in September and just every little thing in the game makes me feel warm inside. This was the game that got me into RPG's so I will always cherish it but now that I have played every other FF game, I can see how flawed it is.

I got somewhere halfway on disc 2 and I wanted to start raising a gold chocobo and I was suddenly reminded what a pain that was.

So now I'm playing FFIX for the 5th time (my favourite) on a lvl 1 challenge

I did for a while. Then I looked at a walkthrough and thought "Oh good god, I'll have to go through that flashback, Junon and Costa Del Sol". So yeah, I changed my mind.

I do like FF7, but it has a habit of just... rambling. And it's less than enjoyable.

I do. Recently it came up in a conversation that I'd never actually beaten Emerald and Ruby. So we fired up my old saves, and then discovered that the ones I'd kept definitely didn't have the kinds of levels I'd need... we played a bit to get some materia leveled up and find items I needed, and then I tried to do it. I said hi to Emerald. Emerald said "good night!" to me.

During all that, I remembered the immersive atmosphere of the game. It's a place you can really sink into... I wouldn't mind playing again. It's been many years; it's about time to revisit that place.
