@Porco in my opinion, S E is making this game purely to satisfy the final fantasy 7 "cult" and hardcore. I do find it surprising when i saw those "Dementor" thats not in the original game, but i find it amusing. But yes, like you said, in the middle of the game i feel lose my understanding about the story. It feels so...weird, weird but amusing. I still want to play the 2nd part though hahahahahah.
@Nickolaidas i agree with you, if you notice it in some event, Tifa looks a bit rougher than barret and aerith, their graphic are so smooth rather than tifa, especially her hair. I know because i make some screenshot and compare those. But hey, at least the environment are okay, i don't think its that bad, maybe its intended to make the game have more fantasy vibe ? FF XV have a real life vibe IMO, maybe thats why they make it like that, but idk too.
@ChipBoundary I do like the story and the grind, i said it lacks area to explore and i need that badly, looking at that game with a gorgeous graphics and arts make me want to explore it all.
And also the dev said that it would be a different experience from the original, and they want to focus more deeply into what happened on the midgar city, so i kind of having expectation of being able to explore midgar freely lol. And honestly ?those side quests are too few to be called quest, i mean if you play jrpg like legend of heroes trails in the sky series, you will find they have a lot of side quests to be played on, and they have an impact to the game.
It's a 7 for me, a great nostalgic feeling and also great arts inside the game make it worth while to explore.
Pros
Good battle system, challenging, but not punishing, good for first timer and fanatics.
Like i said, great arts inside.
Good customization varieties, weapon skills and materia.
Surprising change of event / story in game. (little spoilers here lol)
Good replayability value.
Cons
While character arts look good, but not for the voice acting, some of the voice acting feel weird and looks like people reading script without emotion.
Correct me if i am wrong, but i feel only Cloud, Aerith, and Barret that given extra polish in the game, the graphic for those three seems sharper to me. On the other way, Tifa which is also one of the main character seems a bit neglected, i found many of her images quality looks bad compared to Aerith and Barret. Also her emotion is not really showing in this game. Even Jessie, Wedge, and Biggs are better than her IMHO.
Lacks of exploration factor make this game a bit bland, i mean the stories are good, but i am not buying this game just for stories, maybe more side quest will make this game better.
Well, thats from me. Still i give this game a score of 7, it is not perfect and losing some elements, but it is not dissapointing.
