Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth PS5 Dev Progressing Smoothly, Release Date Being Nailed Down
@kyleforrester87 Ahh, you're right, I always get those two confused. 2015 was the single best games showcase in the entire history of gaming, IMO. I just went back and skimmed both 2014 and 2015 and wow...anyone that wants to make excuses for the latest showcase or for the modern Direct non-E3 world really needs to just go back and watch those presentations back to back. At times I've started to feel like the problem is me and I can't get excited by gaming anymore....nope...problem isn't me....those presentations are still just hype generating. I'm more hyped for PS4 after skim-watching those two shows than PS5 after the last 3 years of PS5 shows. Kinda depressing really.
So only 9+ years rather than 10+ years for part 2 of 3 parts of a 90's game. Suddenly it seems a lot less pathet...oh, nevermind, still does.
It's all cool though it got me to see the NMS reveal years again while I'm knee-deep in NMS mania on VR. Cool presentation, and amazingly true to what the game (eventually) became.
@KundaliniRising333 Trimming or not, it's just unreal that that will put it, ok, 9, not 10, years out from announcing the thing. And it's still not part 3 to finish it. And it's a game that remakes a game that already existed. Yeah I know how different it is, but still... Even Cyberpunk didn't take that long. It's been long enough for FF13-Vs to become FF15 then relaunch, then flounder for years doing DLC, then cancel the DLC, then for YoshiP to hijack the franchise and turn it into Bayonetta, and this thing still isn't going to be done! I'm pretty sure in 2015 everyone expected we'd at least know if Aeris is alive and what's up with Jenova by at least 2019. We're looking at 11-12 years from announce to get a complete game minimum. Even Duke Nukem would have packed it up and gone home by then.
