I don't think the people hyped for FFVII Remake are saying Demon's Souls is just a remake.

It's usually those Xbox fans that try to downplay it.

you may be right, but this is really the first time i'm hearing people shyt on a complete ground up remake of a game before and I can't think of a reason why.

People also act like the amount of players who played the OG Demon's Souls isn't small as hell. I think most of its sales came from people retroactively buying the game once the series blew up with the release of Dark Souls and even then it always remained the cult game of the Souls games.

TYRONE GA!
The narrative comes from MeachTheMoron. He has no exclusives at launch so he is using his old and tired spin tactics to downplay what's coming.

He's really a bad guy

to be fair a lot of us didn't have ps3's when dark souls blew up. Just because something flew under the radar doesn't mean a remake won't be popular. You think everyone that played ff7remake was around for it in 97? Most these people playing it are gen z

because there is no geneva convention in console wars. all manner of fukkery is permitted

what about a jenova convention?

FF7 was a game that came out on hardware that impeded its ambitions. FF7R comes at a time where the technology allows for the presentation and gameplay to evolve in a meaningful way.

Demons Souls remake is simply a graphical upgrade that doesn’t evolve the gameplay or presentation. Which is fine for fans of the game, but not really a similar situation to FF7R
