There really should be more games like Spellcasting 101.

FF7 remake is good.. to an extent. It was a fun experience but because of the bloat the game never even makes it to The Saucer. Once that area is rendered again properly complete with Chocobo racing I might return. Until then.. I will stick to my really obscure Super CD-ROM games I've yet to finish as fas as JRPG games go.

Final Fantasy 7 remake is 86GB. That's just STOOPID.

Considering the original is only 2.4GB and Final Fantasy VI being 0.0048GB, I'll snarkily yet in good spirits agree with your sentiment. Where exactly did all of that bloatware come from?

I wanted to love the FF7 remake so much.

I can't play JRPGs. I can't. Even this one, which goes out of its way to make it seem like a 3D action RPG just has you have to wait around a bunch before you can STRIKE and such.

I can't do it. It looks amazing. I am sure it corrects all the problems with the story. I want to be part of it. I WANTED to be part of it 25 years ago when I bought the original FF7 when they ported it to the PC!

I am letting go of ever being part of the FF7 franchise again. I should say that I got a lot further with PS4 FF7 remake than I ever have a Persona game, but I will be first in line to get those for some reason, each time out. That should be its own thread. I keep wishing that the Persona games would be like Spellcasting 101, where you have classes to go to.

I bought an external hard drive for my PS4.

I do on the PS5... I would expect the experience is similar?

Does anyone else here have one and buy games through the online Sony store?

The experience I had yesterday trying to find my game cannot be correct. I am just wondering.
