Final Fantasy 7 Remake or Cyberpunk 2077 - what do you want to play more as of right now?

Cyberpunk.

FF7 remake will be another JRPG.

FF7R. Want to play it for personal nostalgia reasons of course.

FF R the complete version

We have too many shooters already, this one only has kauno reeves in it

The remake looks fantastic gameplay wise....... and I'm not a FF fan.

Final Fantasy Remake.

While I liked the Witcher series, I found the combat/gameplay to be lacking to say the least.

I want to play both, Cyberpunk 2077 because of the dynamic and interesting sounding narrative (I know the gameplay is going to be ass) and Final Fantasy VII because it looks awesome for gameplay.

I'm a playstation owner so I don't have to make any exceptions with either :D

Both. I want to play both. I really can't pick between these 2.

Which part of the gameplay of ff7r was exciting?

lol is that supposed to be some kind of counter argument in favor for CP2077?

Because NOTHING from CP2077 gameplay was exciting and is easily outshined by anything shown in FF7R.

Maybe you forgot, but gameplay was shown for CP2077, and even though it was only shooting, it was clunky, stiff, and unrealistic it looked like the work an amature programmers.

Possibly the most paint by the numbers shooting seen in a video game since Virtua Cop on Sega Saturn.

if CDPR can't even get realistic shooting down don't bring up how exciting the gameplay of any other game is in an attempt to try to defend CP2077 in an argument, just don't.

No? If look at my other posts I was saying CP2077 most likely gets free pass for subpar combat... just wondering what is actually "great" about ff7 one? I've played a ton of jrpg's and that part has never been the selling point or even close to

FFVII Remake. The gameplay looks impressive. The tactical real-time combat looks like it will be a lot of fun. On the other hand, I'm not hearing good things about Cyberpunk 2077's combat, which is already receiving some criticism.

Also, we don't know much about Cyberpunk 2077's story, and whether it would be good (although it does have cool Blade Runner and Akira vibes). Whereas we already know that FF7R will have a good story, since it's a remake of a game that was known for having a good story.

Still, 2020 looks like it's shaping up to be a great year for cyberpunk video games, with FF7R and 2077 on the horizon.

@howmakewood: Have you seen the FF7R gameplay demo showcasing the combat system and the first boss fight? I don't know about you, but it looks pretty exciting to me. It's like a tactical ARPG.

FF7R isn't a turn-based JRPG, but is a Japanese ARPG with some tactical elements. For Japanese ARPGs, the combat system has always been a selling point. Whether it's Ys, Mana, Nier, Soulsborne, Monster Hunter, etc.

I believe the long thick sword and the random number popping out when it hits something, I guess???

CP2077 because of the more detailed, thought-out world and them pushing the boundaries of gaming. It's a new IP. The cyberpunk theme is pretty much unexplored in gaming and I want to see more of it. It's an Immersive Sim. One of my most beloved (and rare) genres in gaming. The modern Deus Ex games botched the Immersive Sim part and I feel like CP2077 might show people what this genre can really do. I also can't wait to get some choices in the game that catch me off-guard or make me reconsider everything.

My experiences with the FF series has not been a love story. I hated the FF15 combat and the FF7R combat reminded me of it at first, giving me a bad first impression. To be fair, it seems like they are trying hard to find a better combat system. I do really like that you can gather the points to spend in the pause menu for your bigger moves. I want to try a demo. I think that if I can enjoy the combat, I will like the game. Even then, they're only releasing the beginning of the game? I have never played the original so I don't have much of a connection to it. And any changes made to its story are not going to excite me. I do want to check it out... but it doesn't WOW me, because I've grown hesitant of the FF series as a whole.

And that is because of my specific taste in RPG's. Most JRPG's are just too boring to me. Usually because of their combat or their amount of filler. So don't let that lower your excitement! I think most people who go in with reasonable expectations are going to absolutely love both games.

lol oh it's just you then.

Give me your example of an RPG with "great" gameplay that's NOT JAPANESE.

JRPGs literally have the best game play for RPG games IMO.

But I don't know what you're comparing it with, so please let me know where you're basing your standards from? Name a few titles for me?

LMFAO, you do realize with that attempt to be funny and bash FF7R about random numbers popping out is LITERALLY in the gameplay vid of Cyberpunk 2077 that I have posted in this thread right? And that gameplay still looks like amature night at the university...

lol smooth!

Cyberpunk 2077. I love CD Projekt Red, the Witcher III, the Blade Runner-esque setting, and this is also going to be a full game.

FFVIIR, I want to play, but I'm skeptical of the combat and of just how much filler they're going to be adding. Even the scorpion fight looks like it goes on for way too long.

Cyberpunk is actually a full game, so that.

Probably not getting either though.

Cyberpunk since it's actually a complete game. I'm so ready to jump into it.

lol and you don't actually know that, that's why people saying this is funny.

It'll be more complete than FF Remake part 1, since we knew it only takes place inMidgar for all of us that played the original game. That's a fact. It's going to be padded with a lot more content, but we know already know where the story is going.

I havent seen the boss one, just the first reveal where it was shown to have ATB and it was barely few mins long iirc? Have to look up if there's a meatier one. It's not really a system I've ever liked, generally the best jrpg ones for me been turn based, I pretty much loathed the later main line ff games for example. I love Ys, monster hunter and so on, but I dont really count those as what what I would define as "jrpg" as they are vastly different in design.

Pretty hard to find RPG's that I'd define great, more of rpg lite ones? new GoW, souls games, monster hunter and so on. Pretty much the only rpg that's more in the likes of these in question would be Dragon's Dogma, outside of that it's pretty bleak. Divinity is pretty neat but gets broken too easily as well.

You are on some weird basis that I prefer western rpg combat to japanese? or that I'm defending Cyberpunk? Jump less to conclusions

I don't have any nostalgia for Final Fantasy 7, so Cyberpunk easily gets my vote.

I'd be a bit more interested in FF7: Midgar if they had any details about the remaining FF7 games. How many years will we have to wait between games? Is each game going to be full price? Are they going to continue supporting the PS4 all the way through the final game, or are they going to jump to next gen for the last game or two? Will there be any connectivity between FF7 Midgar and the later FF7 games, such as importing our save games and levels, or will each game start afresh? None of these things have been confirmed - all we know is that they've turned the first segment into a full RPG, and they'd like to make more of them in the futue.

As for Cyberpunk - it's a CDPR adaptation of a classic RPG setting. I'm totally on board, and I'm certain they'll deliver an excellent experience.

Don't care much for either, but if I had to get one it would be cyberpunk, at least its a new I.P. the final fanasty games are always over hyped out of proportion, final fanasty 15 was kinda garbage and took for ever to come out.

Cyber punk looks too have a deus ex vibe which looks cool, there are tons of jrpgs. ive never fully understood the FF fandom. Whole series seems overrated, id rather play persona, dragon quest or golden sun, even Octopath was more enjoyable than the last couple final fanasty games. I remember hearing about final fanasty 7 remake too early, its not going to reach the hype. They announced it a few years too early. I diddnt like the witcher 3 either tho, but that had more to do with the setting for me.

Cyberpunk.

FF7R is a nostalgia-fueled money pit. I am looking forward to it though. I just hope the FF7R-remake isn't coming out by the time we finally get the last chapter.

I posted a longer gameplay demo here:

Final Fantasy VII E3 Trailers

As you can see, it's not a typical turn-based "JRPG" combat system, nor is it a typical "hack & slash" action combat system. But rather, it's a fairly unique real-time tactical-action combat system.

@Jag85: thanks, gonna take a look when I got some time

Souls (jrpg) Moster Hunter also (jrpg) Dragon's Dogma (Jprg) so you just say a game isn't a JRPG because it's not turn based or what? It doesn't work like that.

FFXIV isn't turn based either, is it not a JRPG? Nier Automata isn't turn based, is it not a JRPG?

Just because you don't consider them "jrpg" doesn't change the fact that they are and fully created by Japanese devs as RPGs and should be respected, with the depth of Japanese imagination, as JRPGs.

I also enjoy Divinity, I was just confused by you saying you don't play JRPGs for great gameplay when over half the list that you provided me were actually JRPGs.

lol FF7R is a mix between realtime and turn based so what now? How you gone classify it since it's not a fixed element of either? See how trying to pigeon hole JRPGs in to one specific category doesn't work?

I play ffxiv actually(have shadowbringers preordered), but yes when I speak of "jrpg" I mean that certain design style which is fairly obvious

I understand that, I'm just saying that doesn't work out.

As I said above, FF7R has both realtime and turn based combat. So, is it not a JRPG now?

Still find it weird people like JRPGs. Grow up already.

Cyberpunk. No interest in a remade jrpg.

Still find it weird people like video games. Grow up already.

@boxrekt: it is, be it turn based or fully real time such as ni no Kuni for example, it's the whole party focus and other designs that make the "genre"

The highest-grossing media franchise of all time is... Pokemon. That says it all, really.

@pyro1245: Cyberpunk 2077 is also nostalgia-fuelled though. It's a homage to classic cyberpunk of the '80s and '90s, e.g. Blade Runner, Akira, Neuromancer, Ghost in the Shell, Matrix, and of course Cyberpunk 2020.

FF7R just happens to be a more direct remake of a '90s cyberpunk classic, FF7. So they're both essentially a throwback to '90s cyberpunk nostalgia.

I voted CP2077 because it's my most favorite genre (FPRPG) and reminds me of my favorite game of all time (Deus Ex).

Also it's completely new with a new story, I've already played FF7 enough times. Also CDPR owns.

Deus Ex (new and old), Vampire TMB, New Vegas, and The Elders Scroll (all of them) all have poor combat. First Person RPGs usually have bad melee/gunplay, but only casuals CoD kids will really mind. Anyone looking for a great RPG probably doesn't give a shit. This is the last thing I'm going to worry about for CP2077.

That is really a minor issue didn't really stop the above games from being incredible and timeless classics with great gameplay.

Cyberpunk 2077. FFVIIR is an incomplete game.

How is it an incomplete game? Each installment is its own game.

FF7 Remake will be the superior game by far.

@sleepnsurf: still surprised that people are so limited and shallow to say stuff like that.

Who gives a flying rats ass about that hack n' slash reimagined abomination?

Cyberpunk 2077, no contest. I'm waiting for the FF7 remake, so i'm not hitting that wait after leaving Midgar.

Never played a FF, and don't really have any desire to start now...

So Cyberpunk.

FF7R for the nostalgia.

Why with these polls are there no "neither" option?

My vote goes to neither.

FF7 was great, but I already played it. More of the same is bleh. I'd go with original content.

Since FF7 Remake isn't a traditional JRPG anymore, I went with CP2077.
