Final Fantasy 7 came out when I was in high school and I was getting more into PCs at the time and only had enough money for one. By the time I got around to playing FF7 years later, the graphics were way outdated and it never clicked for me.
FF7 is a great game. One of my favorites. And for quite a long time, people say that it aged well.
I don't think that's true anymore. And probably hasn't been true for years.
But you know what's even better than the original? The FF7 Remake. I was somewhat ambivalent about it. Cautious, even. Because I knew it was going to be real-time active battles instead of the old traditional turn-based system. And I like the latter (because I'm bad at real time stuff). But SE did a fantastic job on the remake with the battle system. It's so much fun. I even think the updated story is great. I highly recommend it to anyone who didn't really like the original FF7.
They did SUCH a good job with it. It's a love letter to the original game but done in a very modern and approachable way.
