Yeah even I can't support this ***** practice. They can keep this DLC, I'll get it when it's heavily discounted and *****. I couldn't care less of the other two "expansion pass" DLC and just wanted to play The Answer.
What an absurd practice but not surprising from greedy ATLUS.
@Giggleshot the different is AC series gives you the freedom of movement in their open world games and that's why it works.
Square Enix lazy and horribly designed open world restricts your movements every single time with arbitrary invisible walls and single points of climbing. Hell the stupid EX soldier still can't jump in 2024. It's an "open world" designed with single player restricted map movements because they can't do open world right and it's just frustrating how much it turned this otherwise great series into garbage.
FF7 never need any of these. Just give us the great series we loved back then and focus on that. Remake got it right, but Rebirth is what happened when they lost sight on what made the series great in the first place.
But lesson learned, I'll skip the next game and just watch the new ending from YouTube or something because Square clearly has lost their passion for storytelling with Rebirth and trading it for bloated trash in the name of money.
@PaperAlien yeah the burnout rate is real. I'm just powering through the main story right now and if this is how they're approaching the third game, I'm gonna skip it and just watch the events on Youtube.
6.5. Great new combat mechanics and great story, ruined by bloated mini-game trash and the open world map that was so poorly designed that your EX soldier still can't jump or climb anywhere in 2024. So much so that he had to walk around the cliff to find a different route just to go to a tower that was literally a jump away for any normal human.
And whomever designed Gongaga Jungle needs to die in a fire.
What an embarrassing and lazy attempts at an open world when games like Tears of the Kingdom and Xenoblade Chronicles exist.
@ShogunRok Thank you for the excellent review. Vanillaware never miss. The trailer intrigued me, the demo hooked me, and this review solidified my urge to play it day 1.
@ShogunRok I assume this is the live version review? do you get to explore the rest of the 4 other continents or the map is just limited to the first one like in the demo?
I joined this site in 2014 but this is actually the first time I posted here due to how ridiculous this article is.
Honestly, if you're struggling to justify purchasing these OPTIONAL DLC pack, you're not the target market.
I love Persona games and these are the series I tend to spend an upward of 200 hours with. A digital deluxe edition cost me about $140 CAD after taxes, which works out for about 70c per hour. I'm fortunate enough to make way more than that and the entertainment value ratio I'm getting for this pack still significantly better than my daily coffee I purchased for work. And yes, I will absolutely double dip if they ever remake FES in P5 engine.
It's the same reason I didn't bat an eye purchasing the Digital Deluxe version of Infinite Wealth and the Digital Deluxe version of Granblue Fantasy.
Again, if you're struggling or whining about these OPTIONAL DLC pack, you're not the target market and SEGA knows it.

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth?
Notice how it's only those that are not even halfway through the game ("I just hit Golden Saucer, OMG~!") that gave this game a high score.

Square is absolutely regressing with Rebirth.
