the only JRPG i cansay i've ever legitimately liked was the FF Origins version of FF1 on PS1. it's the only game that's actually brisk and snappy enough to be enjoyable and isn't filled with retarded anime tropes and an exhausting plot with Kids WB tier writing. i've given plenty of games a chance, but that's the only one i've ever been able to invest any significant time in before getting bored and moving on. i have no fucking clue how shitty number crunchers with Dragon Ball Z character personalities can entrance so many people.

How could people hate the blocky chibi models of FFVII? It gave the game such an identity of its own that no other game has. The minute you see one of the designs you can't help but to think of FFVII. They didn't age poorly at all. They have become synonymous with FFVII and because of that will forever stand the test of time since again, no other games from the era mimicked the style.

Don't get me wrong, but just because it's different doesn't mean it's good, or at least that it's everyone's cup of tea. Working Designs' translations were also distinctive and one of a kind.
I just feel it's a very weird clashing mix of realistic impressive 3D and epic plot with lego characters. It only makes sense if you think they tried to copy the look of old FF but in 3D. I mean, FF had these chibi characters on the covers, I guess they considered those the identity / schtick of the series, like chocobos. That's the only logic I found, it's not even consistent with the battle and cutscene models.

It was never meant to be. This is why FFVII has stuck so much in the minds of people all these years. Its subtle and I don't think most seem to picked up on this considering how many people wanted the remake but its there and very apparent. A lot of things went right to make FFVII the iconic game that it became. The lack of detail chibi models played a huge part in this as well as the fact they clash with the in battle models and certain FMV's. The lack of voice acting is another aspect that played a role in shaping FFVII.

Its no accident many are very critical of all the compilation stuff with FFVII. In many ways for better or worse, intended or otherwise, FFVII left a lot for the player to interpret. For the player to fill in blanks. Though translation errors also play a part of course. I like the chibi models. I never found anything wrong with them. They were made to be very expressive and even cartoon-like despite their limited polygon count. Yeah they clash with the other themes of FFVII including the battle models but this was all intentional to make something that is still such a unique gaming experience to this day. Even within the same genre it is.
