I haven't even touched Rebirth yet lol and I really enjoy the Remake stuff, even more so because it's a sequel to the original, but FF has gone downhill overall imo. Trails is my current favourite JRPG series, and it's really not even a close competition.

@deathkid

No one is stopping you from enjoying the FFVII Reamke games. But my point still stands, it's poorly written fanfiction. First time I played Final Fantasy VII was in 1999. Final Fantasy VII and Resident Evil 1(I still have both), were my first 2 PlayStation 1 games. So I've played Final Fantasy VII numerous times over the years. What what the Remake games are, are nothing more than imitators.

It's mass market slop at it's finest. Does it make it terrible games? Not at all, Remake Part 1 was fairly decent. But let's not pretend that any of the remake games are as good as the original. I hope Square Enix doesn't touch Final Fantasy VIII. Because they'll ruin that as well.

@phreak - Dont't get me wrong, many fans have valid criticism's with the game and I respect that. And It sucks when a game you're excited for doesn't hit the way you'd hope. I mean as fans we want to enjoy all entries in our favourite franchises.

I feel that as I'm getting older I rather just enjoy games for what they are.

One thing that I am not happy with is that FFVII Revelation will not be fully on disc, even though physical discs are included.

I'm a pretty hardcore FF fan but if you love the Remake series, as I do, you also kind of have to understand that a lot of contentious decisions were made in the story and it's just not gonna land with some people. I totally get why some folks don't like it or agree with the changes.

I do hope however that the announcement of FFXVII is close, feels like the FF fandom needs a new mainline title to reset after the Remake series lol

Hope it lives up to your expectations and you love it.
Always sucks to not be with happy for a game you were excited about.

@phreak - that I understand. Rabid defenders are rarely better than those that hate on a game. If you like a game or series, it makes sense you want to discuss what it could have done better or where it might go in the future.

Think people have become to comfortable with giving simplistic aggressive responses, attaching a strong emotion to it as justification, then calling it a day.

I will never deny that the FF7 remake games have good graphics, runs well and a great combat system.
Those parts are really well done. It's other things I don't like

As I said, I hope everyone excited for it enjoys it.
Won't deny you that ever. Hope you love it.
I'm just tired of being insulted for not liking changes I feel are disrespectful to the original. Changes I won't talk about here due to spoilers.

Monster Hunter Wilds and Final Fantasy XIV are Crossing Over

by Sam Aberdeen on 20 August, 2025

Monster Hunter Wilds and Final Fantasy XIV are officially crossing over, featuring collaboration content between the two games. This is similar to when Monster Hunter World crossed over with Final Fantasy XIV and vice versa, giving Capcom’s title the Behemoth hunt while Square Enix’s MMORPG received a Rathalos quest.

In the case of the Monster Hunter Wilds and Final Fantasy XIV crossovers, the latter will get Seikrets (which are basically chocobos anyway) and Wilds’ flagship monster, Arkveld, to fight. As for Wilds, it will be getting chocobo designs for Seikrets, Cactuar, and the machine monster, Omega Planetes.

The update for Monster Hunter Wilds will arrive as a free update in late September, while Final Fantasy XIV will get its Wilds content update in early October.

Monster Hunter fans initially suspected that Bahamut, one of the iconic dragons from the Final Fantasy universe, would be the new crossover monster but it seems like Capcom is leaning heavily into bolstering its Construct Monster class, of which Omega Planetes is an ideal fit. According to the lore, Omega Planetes is a god-like machine entity that managed to defeat pretty powerful dragons stronger than Bahamut, if you’re worried it might not be on the same difficulty wave as Behemoth.

In related news, Capcom says it will continue to work on improving the PC version of Monster Hunter Wilds until winter this year and beyond. The PC version was heavily criticised for its numerous technical issues and poor performance when it launched earlier this year, but a recent update apparently managed to fix quite a lot of hiccups.

Monster Hunter Wilds is available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC. Final Fantasy XIV Online is available on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S and PC. Watch both of the crossover trailers below:
