And done with FF7.
That was better than I thought it would be. I can see why people have fond memories of it, although few things about it matches up with what people talked about. Then again the characters in it barely resemble how they are portrayed in everything else so eh.
I love the materia system, but not too fond of the leveling/difficulty. The combinations you can do with pairing materia is nice if limited. Hopefully the remakes fix that and broadens the combos.
I don’t like how materia effects your stats though. I always hated how some RPGs asks you “Do you want to be middling now, but strong later? Or do you want to be strong now but underpowered later?” I prefer it when better gear are just better, rather than having different downsides. And unfortunately this dynamic made the difficulty of enemies weird since the game was never sure if you could one-shot them or not.
Ah well, looking forward to the remakes now.
