    Fort Condor is SOOO much better in Intergrade.
    - You can build and customize your layout
    - If time runs out, as long as you have more towers than your opponent, you win. You dont have to beat the boss within the time limit.
    - You have spells instead of hero units which you can deploy at any time.
    This version was a HUGE step backwards.

      @Wolfqueen007 Před měsícem +6

      Agreed 100%, though I will correct you in that intergrade fort comdor on hard mode did require you to beat the enemy's headquarters. So it's like they made the rebirth version the same as intergrade's hard mode without the customization or user friendliness of the spells.

      @@silvesta5027 In Integrade, there's a lot more customization regarding your pieces, boards and loadouts which you also had to either beat other players or collect throughout the game. Integrade was a short DLC so it made sense for them to go all in on that. My guess is they made some concessions to keep the game more simple and self contained. They already placed most of their minigame focus in Queens Blood so they probably didn't want to make Fort Condor such a large focus in an already extremely long game.

I knew I could turn it off, but then I found it impossible because there's one command where you have to push the trigger only part way down, which is incredibly difficult with the haptic feedback turned off. In the end I just reduced the trigger strength and vibration to 'weak', which allowed me to get through it without too much pain.

    Classic FF7 mini games felt more intrinsic in a way.
    I needed to grind currency for the arena so I jumped between G-Bike, Sub & Snowboarding to keep the grind fresh-ish.
    Most of the late game rewards in Rebirth are locked behind perfect scores of each mini game.
    I’m not actually for removing that challenge but I would love the addition of some super high value items in the Gold Saucer store and Moogle Emporium (for the overworld games, they could reward coins).
    I think that would be a nice way to get the same replay value out of them as in classic FF7. We could cycle between them without the need of a perfect score every time and actually enjoy the mini game.
    If they added a bunch of alternate costumes, this could be quite a fun way of unlocking them.

    The Fort Condor and Gears and Gambits in hard mode would’ve been more fun if there were other strategies to beat them. There’s pretty much only one strategy for all the levels that work. Unless you get lucky or look up a strategy, you’ll just be trying over and over
    For the Aerith solo vs the bomb, it is easy if you equip Fire to Elemental material in your defensive slots. You become take less damage/gain immunity/absorb their attacks
    Also for Cactuar Rush, Aerith with Transcendence and Yuffie with Doppelgänger make it a lot easier

    The chocobo gliding minigame has a flaw in the controls
    The L stick is used for movement, but L-3 toggles on and off motion controls which are just awful
    I think that the shoot out minigame has the same thing
    In both it is way too easy to accidentally toggle the motion controls
    It really should've just been an option in the pause menu

The ones I hated really would have been fine if you didn’t have to do the some many times. The moogle game made me laugh the first time but by the third I was way over it same with cactar crush and the one I legit didn’t care for was the little robot mini game

    Honestly, the biggest problem I had with the crunch-off was that the R1 L1 and R2 L2 buttons were upside down. I mean, when you hold a controller normally the 1 buttons are above the 2 buttons, but on the screen they showed them the opposite way. It just kept throwing me off. Otherwise it was just like the squats/pull-ups minigame from Remake, which had the buttons layed out sensibly like they are on the controller.

    • @LeeorVardi

      Or if you just tilt the controller so you can look down on it and see all buttons, like a lot of (not every as you claim) controller layout screens do, it's the same as looking down a hill. Something closer to you is in fact higher up, even if you have to tilt your view down.

    Gears and Gambits is by far my least favorite one. Its like fort condor but waaay more underwhelming because u cannot place the robots on the map except all the way back to one of the 3 crystals.
    At least in fort condor u can push the respawn line up to the enemy base and placing units waaay closer to the enemy.
    Cactuar Rush is also another one, with yuffie is ok at best but with aerith is kinda frustating ngl.
    Rebirth minigames overall are really good or good at first playthrough.

      Yes, a lot are forced in sections of the story. They are often short or you can immediately skip them, but they become very invasive imo. And some just interrupt the pacing, cut scenes or emotional moments. But, in fairness, I know a lot of ppl were able to look past them, or even liked them. I was not, and it pretty much ruined my enjoyment. Your milage may vary.

    In the original game, Cloud teaches some of the Shinra troopers he drills with how to do his victory sword twirl. Way later on disc 2, when you come barging into their submarine, they do it again to intimidate you (not knowing you're the one that taught it to them). You actually have the option to say "....Look, you're just official prisoners of war now, so I don't have to kill you." And they roll with it. So what I'm saying is, the 7th won't be your airship crew, but your submarine crew. Also, having spent hours mastering the hard mode version of Cactuar Crush, I agree: F*** That Cactus.

    Only thing I can realistically disagree with is the crunch off minigame, that one to me was physically painful due to the haptic feedback, I sweat it's going to be to blame for my carpal tunnel in a few years, on top of that I swear the hold down green peompt is just bugged an refuses to work half the time...

      Here's what I did to beat it, if you haven't yet:
      1. Go to the ps5 settings and turn off the haptic feedback so the L2 and R2 buttons don't get harder to press. That will hopefully help with the hand pain, because struggled with that to.
      2. Turn down the volume. Tifa's visual feedback was better for me than the auditory feedback, and eventually the sounds of Jules and the others in the background had me GENUINELY enraged.
      3. Learn one pattern and restart until you get it. Once I got three rounds in a row starting with L1, I got so thrown off starting with R1 that I failed horribly.
      Again, I don't know if you've beat it or not, but I hope this helped if you haven't!

    And did you say you couldn't fight Gilgamesh until post game? You can fight him before going to the Temple of the Ancients. What couldn't you do until post game?
