    No, it is a full game. And they've released DLC for it.

    So the remake of FF VII is complete, nothing more to come? This Part 2 that they're talking about is not on the OG FF VII?



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,057 ✭✭✭OhHiMark


    No, but there will be more games to complete the story. Fellowship of the Ring doesn't have the full story but it's still a complete film.

    Anyone know if you have to have the ps4 version of FF 7 remake installed to get the upgrade or just having it in your library will kick off the ps5 download? Not sure whether to download the 90gb ps4 version today so it's ready for tomorrow or if that will be a waste.

    You need to add the upgrade version from the store to your account. You don't need to install the PS4 version unless you want to transfer a save.

    Ah ok, yeah might install just to transfer the save although i plan on playing the dlc first and then replaying the main story.



  • Registered Users Posts: 13,830 ✭✭✭✭Potential-Monke


    You're missing my point. They're remaking a game but splitting it into 3, so no, I don't consider it a full game considering it's only a part of the original full game. And before releasing the rest of it, they're releasing DLC for the first part at an additional cost. And people are happy about that for some reason. I don't even have an interest in it, or the original, but I think that's crappy practice. Put that time into completing the game before trying to milk more money out of it.



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,057 ✭✭✭OhHiMark


    It's a different game to the first game, it's not even telling the same story as the original. And this first part is about as long as the whole original was.



  • Registered Users Posts: 13,830 ✭✭✭✭Potential-Monke


    But why this blurb then? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Final_Fantasy_VII_Remake

    "Final Fantasy VII Remake is the first in a planned series of games remaking the 1997 PlayStation game Final Fantasy VII. It covers the first section of the original game, set in the metropolis Midgar; Tim Rogers of Action Button estimated that Remake covers approximately 30% of the original game's story."

    Saw on reddit that someone got info from the game site that the free PS5 upgrade goes live at 5pm Irish time. Then you can buy Intermission DLC for I think 15 euro, discounted from 20. If you let your PS Plus sub lapse, you will lose access to the PS5 version and unable to play the dlc.

    Look, you haven't played it, and I don't know if you've played the original, so I can't explain it to you but they're telling a different story based on the original. The first part was mostly based on the first part of the original (definitely not 30% of it) but it's going to diverge a lot from here. And the DLC tells a part of the story that will almost certainly be more relevant in the later parts, but wasn't important enough to include in the main game.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake - PS5 Free upgrade is now available, 84gbs. Yuffie DLC is 15 euro, 10gb. A few free in game items on the store for it as well.

    January psplus games leaked by deal labs.

    Dealabs have correctly leaked the last few months of games



  • Registered Users Posts: 6,312 ✭✭✭Damien360


    Dirt 5 is a nice addition. Tough to play on PS without a steering wheel. Played it on PC with wheel and pedals and it was a damn sight easier. Don’t know the other 2 at all



  • Registered Users Posts: 7,667 ✭✭✭Mr Crispy


    I only played about 8 hours of Deep Rock Galactic, but it's deadly - proper co-op fun.



  • Registered Users Posts: 13,830 ✭✭✭✭Potential-Monke


    I was interested in DRG but reviews are that it's really not a solo players game. I have a couple of mates with a PS5 so maybe we'll get a couple of games in, as it seems fun. Already have Dirt 5. And delighted with P5Strikers, I wanted it for a while as I enjoyed what bit of P5 I played, but I just can't warm to turn based, so Strikers seemed like something I could enjoy more. So happy enough with that! Probably won't be true now.



  • Registered Users Posts: 5,572 ✭✭✭EoinHef


    Bought a Thrustmaster T300 RS GT on black friday,waiting for a stand to arrive in January to use it.

    Happy to see dirt 5 next month if true so.

    Deep Rock is something I've been tempted by aswell.



  • Registered Users Posts: 4,320 ✭✭✭jj880


    No new VR games?

    WTF is this BULLSH!T

    RAAAAAAAAAAAAAGE!

    ...

    ...

    Persona 5 Strikers looks good though. Something different for me anyway.



  • Registered Users Posts: 527 ✭✭✭sterz


    Any offers going at the moment for a 12 month sub?



  • Registered Users Posts: 8,902 ✭✭✭EoinMcLovin

    Dirt 5. Very nice.



  • Registered Users Posts: 29,504 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    Yeah looking forward to giving Dirt 5 a go. I really should try Persona 5 on the ps plus collection, see if I'm into it at all.



  • Registered Users Posts: 3,574 ✭✭✭quokula


    Already own Dirt 5. Persona 5 Strikers is something I've been waiting to get on sale so will be snapping that up. Best month in a good while for me.



  • Registered Users Posts: 8,902 ✭✭✭EoinMcLovin


    Games now available to download /add to library



  • Registered Users Posts: 4,320 ✭✭✭jj880


    Started playing dirt 5 and have it on ea play license. Seems I cant overwrite with ps plus license so will lose it next month when ea play sub runs out. Bummer.



  • Registered Users Posts: 2,084 ✭✭✭The Raging Bile Duct


    Can you not remove the EA version from your library and then add the PS Plus version? I know they gave you the option to remove things like demos from your library but I don't know if you can remove full games.



  • Registered Users Posts: 4,320 ✭✭✭jj880


    Seems I cant. I can hide / unhide but it keeps the ea license. No biggy. If Im still playin it near end of the month maybe i'll contact PlayStation support and see if they can change the license. Would be nice to have for multiplayer.



  • Registered Users Posts: 11,371 ✭✭✭✭Exclamation Marc


    No, unfortunately not. I tried this before with Star Wars Battlefront 2 and had no joy with Sony. I submitted a request to Sony and the rep was massively unhelpful saying it wasn't possible

    That said, I'm sure there is some way to process it and you might get a customer service rep who's helpful.



  • Registered Users Posts: 27,835 ✭✭✭✭TitianGerm


    Could you cancel your EA sub early and then get the PS+ version?
