FF7 Rebirth (Gaming)

I wonder what it is like for first-time players encountering these remakes.

I've never played the original FF7, and only knew some stuff about it from cultural osmosis.

Final Fantasy 7 Remake is one of the best games I've ever played, full stop. Like, it's legitimately probably top five of all time for me, or somewhere thereabouts. I love just about everything about it. The story is great, the characters are fantastic, the combat system is top tier. It's just fantastic.

I'm sure there's stuff I've missed when it comes to the differences in the story due to Sephiroth fucking around with Fate or whatever is even happening. I listened to some podcasts about that specifically, and had to read some story summaries of the original game, but, even without doing that, I think Remake stands on its own (and I can only assume the remake trilogy will stand apart after being complete).

I liked it so much I bought and played Crisis Core Reunion as soon as I finished Remake. I can't wait for Rebirth.
