FFVII’s New Steam Release Sparks Bug-Ridden Backlash
TL;DR Summary
Kotaku reports that Final Fantasy VII’s latest Steam re-release dropped Feb 24 and already has an overwhelmingly negative reception, with only 36% of 308 reviews positive. Critics cite a forced launcher, stuttering sound, broken resolution options, blurry visuals, and missing features from the delisted 2013 Edition; some patches have fixed issues like doubling the FPS to 30, though that sped up animations, and further patches are anticipated as updates continue.
