Thinkng about buying ff7 rebirth while its on Sale

But I think my Specs are not good enough.

I have a 2070 super

And i7 9700

16g ram

But the stupid founders edition gpu.

It ran really hot like > 85* while trying the ff16 demo. It didn’t even made it past the first cutscene without thermal throttle.

Can I expect similar amounts of strain on my system from ff7 rebirth?

Remake ran pretty good I think.

Ty for everyone who takes his time answering!

Writer's Choice re Mako Bombing in Chapter 1

I'm not going to add a spoiler tag since this happens in chapter 1, but I'm just curious to get people's opinions. I can only apologise if this has been asked already too.

How do people feel about the writing decision to make the scale of destruction in Sector 8 Shinra's doing? The reactor bomb doesn't really do much damage compared to what the mech you fight does on its way out, and upon seeing this, Shinra step in to make it worse in order to aid their propaganda.

Granted the party don't know it wasn't their fault, and at the start of chapter 2 they even have a discussion about how it's a necessary evil on their path to saving the planet from Shinra while stood amongst the burning piles of wreckage, which is pretty harrowing. Even so, you the player know that actually none of the lives lost are the fault of Avalanche.

When I first played this game and had that revealed to me, I couldn't help but feel it removed some of the nuance this moral dilemma had in the OG game, especially regarding Barret. The idea that they did these things for the greater good, but at the cost of all those lives? It's a huge moral dilemma, sacrificing the few for the many. But now it's just Shinra, sacrificing lives for nefarious purposes because of course they would do that.

The game even lingers on the destruction by having you navigate through it, listening in on the distressed cries and conversations of people that now fall under "collateral damage". But even that felt like the punches got pulled because I knew it was actually Shinra the whole time.

What are people's feelings on this?

Everytime i see villages in ff7 OG..

It shows how overpopulated and touristic ff7 Rebirth really is, look at Nibelheim in the OG there live only 4 people.. FOUR people in total! While in Rebirth its too fucking crowded and noisy, like where the fuck is the silence, the deep hitting music, the atmosphere?!!

Not only Nibelheim but a lot more villages in Rebirth are too crowded and noisy..

Mods on the 2026 Steam version of FF7?

I just started playing the original game in Japanese on Steam, which is only available in the 2026 version (the 2013 version only had English). Do mods like Ninostyle, Cosmos Limit Break, and 60FPS work on that version? And if so, any pointers as to how to do that?

I can still use 7th Heaven with all the mods despite having only the 2026 version installed, but it automatically launches the game in English, and it seems to be a different version of it.

chapter nine pls help me

i accidentally deleted my last post right after someone sent me a link to help i’m so sigh…

i hardly ever use reddit, but i am so desperate. i have been stuck on chapter nine when you are in the shinra manor and need to find the numbers for the safe for well over a year now. i have checked and checked each room repeatedly and get the same numbers every time. i have made my friends check as well and they also get the same numbers. i know i am entering the numbers in the right order.

BUT IT WILL NOT WORK!!!!

it tells me im incorrect every single time. i dont know if its a glitch or what, but i possibly do not understand how i can be wrong. i have checked and verified the number of each item countless times. has anyone else had this issue and does anyone know how i can fix it?
