Kotaku Game DiaryDaily thoughts from Kotaku staff about the game we play.It's scary or it can be, The final concept of VII it was not part of my childhood. As such, Be warned it gave me a great opportunity to learn more about this iconic participatory game. I am there fall in love and opposition members of the Avalanche and found eco-terrorist terrorists vs. exploitative megacorp is a compelling narrative. And now this game is actually teaching me how to play with modicum of skill and strategy.
After surviving another mission with the Avalanche, The Final VII Remake protagonist Cloud Strife finds himself stranded in the Midgar & # 39; s slums with an unnamed flower girl from the beginning of the story. She introduces herself as Aerith, and proves to be a sweet, caring person with a penchant for calling Cloud out of her way. I know what will happen to her later in this story – which is not yet – and it was always painted when she spent on the screen with a melancholy spirit. I just met Aerith and I'm already crying for her.
This foundation meeting is eventually interrupted by Reno, whom Cloud describes as a member of the Turks, Shonra & # 39; s Special-ops. I'm not entirely sure what the Turks are all about, but Reno's ability to go-to-toe with the superosha superosha indicates that they will likely be a threat later in the game. Aerith seems to know Reno but she, in her own unique way, works Cloud by being her guard instead of explaining what's going on.
I have found that the manager regards Reno as one of the best parts The Final VII Remake so far. Every time Reno opens the attack it unleashes a whirlwind of lightning, crack, lights high a double church as their battlefield. When an altercation takes place through Aerith's flower garden – itself lit up as if it were an outpost, thanks to a recent Cloud hole in the roof – she screams and falls asleep, telling you to remember the unprotected flowers. I tried my best.
The quick flash of lightning on Reno in the previous cutscene was a great sign of how well his battle will play out. I found that I was only allowed a few precious seconds to make a basic attack before Reno ran out of range, and the windscreen wipeout opened me up to a wonderful thank-you problem because of his ability to close the gap quickly. Cloud's special attack on the Cloud required that the swordman be close to his opponent, and magic was not a job.
Then I saw something. Although it was about 10 hours into the game, I had forgotten the important benefit of defending Cloud & # 39; s punisher Mode: parry. The Final VII Remake it introduces Punisher Mode at first, but it doesn't make it clear how effective your parish can work, especially against fast enemies such as Reno.
Preparing to make a red-haired Turk was a piece of cake. I don't even have to come to him; just entering the Punisher Mode and stopping with the monitor button was enough to release his attacks and allow him a chance of being fined. When he received backup from some drones participating in the second half of the fight, it was just a matter of destroying the robots with Cloud & # 39; s Fira Spell and returning to my state of madness.
I don't blame it The Final VII Remake not to mention the time of parry technology. I might have paid more attention to the original game's tutorial and tried harder on the battles leading up to Reno's boss. I don't have much opportunity to use the following theft with Aerith's escape from church – these are the times when Aerith the developed state is really taking shape, apparently – but I'm really looking forward to my next battle with that annoying slider from the beginning of the game. They won't stand a chance.
