I don’t think I have a high bar when it comes to a medium, to be honest. I can enjoy and even praise the most absurd, trashy thing that gets released. Atomfall has been pretty underwhelming, and I’d like to say the same about Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, but honestly, it takes the cake for adding so much content that doesn’t really belong there. I can’t help but feel the third installment is going to miserably fall flat.

If I ever write about Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, which I know I will, all I know is it’s not going to be a pretty review. I think it started so well, yet the game is just plagued with an incomprehensible amount of mini-games, and when you give characters screen time instead of delving deeper into forming a better narrative around what’s happening in the world of Final Fantasy 7, like, it just feels like whoever is directing this was given the golden keys to drive it home, but instead chose to run over every pothole, and crash into every tree possible before driving it home. Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth has the markings of everything wrong when you are given the chance to do a remake, while failing to raise the IP to a higher standard.
