I’d say so. FF7 was always just OK to me, but Remake and Rebirth have been fun and I feel like I appreciate these characters a bit more now. Though these new ones do change up the story a bit.
Yeah, the '97 original one. I never cared for most of the characters and the story got stale after Cosmo Canyon. But worst of all, most of the mini games were horrendous (and most of them were mandatory).
Now, I like a good mini game, I like most Final Fantasy games, and I loved Crisis Core (the original on the PSP). So, I’m kind of conflicted. I would just play it, but I also have a backlog of games I want to play.
As a big Crisis Core enjoyer I found Part 1 - Remake to have an absurd amount of filler and not understandable references in cutscenes which do hamper the experience. Of course it was amazing to see the Crisis Core pre renders become in-game visuals, but the story flow was absolutely not there for me. It was enjoyable enough, but nowhere near as great as most made it out to be. My hope with Rebirth is that it fixes these problems, as the game can be fun if it had better structure.
I wasn’t a huge fan of Remake at the time (I liked it but I didn’t think it was amazing either), but as I near the end of Rebirth I’m actually kind of interested in playing it again.
Rebirth, just FYI, has a TON (think of a number and add more to that) of mini games which you could probably chalk up as filler. But even though some of them are pretty mid I am enjoying this game a lot more than Remake.
Only if you like a ton of mini games to preoccupy your time in-between every bit of story along the way. Also, if you like open world areas with very simple predetermined objectives for every region. Not to much to do in terms of exploration, mostly just hand holding to track down all the things then move on to the next. I loved it but I am sure a lot of people don’t.
Is it worth playing these games if I didn’t love the original but I did love Crisis Core?
When you say “original” you mean the 1997 one?

If you loved Crisis Core then yes. This game has similar combat although a lot more advanced.
