I have spent all weekend crying after this reveal. I watched everyone i could find react to it and trying to share my joy through them.
It's been a surreal experience and I can't believe the original FF7 Remake reveal was 11 years ago now. Then it went radio silent for 5 years after that, only to release finally during Covid in 2020. Now here we are and the final part is upon us 12 years after the original announcement. The Remake project has been nothing short of fucking spectacular.
I've come to a weird realization in screaming for joy during the trailer that once Revelations comes out, I don't think i will ever be so excited for a game ever again. It's wonderful to see this come true, and kind of sad because I have no dream game to look forward to after this. What am i going to do with myself?
I will forever now watch State of Plays and SGF's and Game Awards and not really give a shit because nothing can ever be announced that will bring such hype. I mean is there another game that has 7 hour compilations of people freaking out over the reveal? I can't think of one.
It's only 8-9 months away too. Rebirth was announced over a year before it finally came out. Revelations feels like they held it back for a reason, held it back to not make us wait so long.
And now that it's launching on everything all at once, in line with all the other games being on everything, it just fits. People who've waited to play Remake until all three parts are out can safely start Remake and by the time they complete Rebirth, Revelations will either be out or mere weeks away. Hell if you add Crisis Core on top of that you'll definitely need to scramble to complete all the games in time.
Wow what a ride this has been, fuck.....
