Are there any projects you could suggest as worth checking out? I love mods but I never really thought about using them with FF7 - it’s just not a game that comes to mind when I think about doing a modded playthrough. Anything transformative enough to make it more than just FF7 but with QoL or nicer graphics?
check out New Threat which remixes the game, or the Archeology Mod which restores cut content and the original intent of the translators - including lines that were wrong in the original and then fixed in remake (it has a setting specifically keep “This guy are sick” if you were worried).
FF7 has mods for better characters models, better backgrounds and FULLY VOICED CHARACTERS. Yeah all caps because it’s that insane modders voiced the entire game from main characters to random fillers in town and are now working on FF9.
The voice mod is called Echo S but they’re all available through the 7th heaven launcher and work great on steam deck.
7th Heaven mod manager has traditionally been the way to go. I think Reunion is the most important as a retranslation that improves the writing a lot. There are a number of graphical improvements, bug fixes and such too. Also framerate.
Hm, sounds good but not necessarily like a must-have for someone who enjoys the series more casually/from the sidelines rather than being an active part of the fandom. I’ll keep that in mind for the future, thanks.
