Overall: A worthwhile remake of a classic RPG for fans, Final Fantasy VII Remake lays a solid foundation for the second installment.
Pros: Gorgeous character models and cutscenes, fantastic re-imagining of original soundtrack, strong voice acting, solid mix of turn based ATB and live action battle system, stays true to the spirit of the original.
Cons: Blurry textures and backgrounds, invisible walls block exploration consistently, story is at times confusing, only contains a small portion of the original game and ends on a cliffhanger.
