FF7 Revelation Is Doubling-Down On Rebirth’s Maximalism With Its “Planetary Scale” Open World

FF7 Revelation Is Doubling-Down On Rebirth’s Maximalism With Its “Planetary Scale” Open World https://ift.tt/sctDO1j I still vividly remember the first time I played Final Fantasy VII Remake 's demo in 2019, and fully how it sold me on Square Enix's reimagining of one of the most beloved RPGs of all time. Following ex-SOLDIER Cloud's mission with Avalanche members to destroy Mako Reactor 1, the demo was perfectly paced for showcasing its beautiful modern visuals and more action-focused combat system, both of which made for an electrifying experience filled with cinematic spectacles. Fast-forward to 2026, and I'm finally playing Final Fantasy VII Revelation , the third and final part of this remake series, and it's just as surreal as it is entirely overwhelming.  This is no exaggeration--when I first sat down to play the Final Fantasy VII Revelation demo at Gamescom, a Square Enix PR representative briefed us on several of the paths we could opt to take, and it ...

Barbie never f---ed with Ken. That's the point. If you ever really cared about Ken, you would know that nobody cared about Ken. So your hypocrisy is exposed. This is why his story must be told."

Director Greta Gerwig has already said that Ken's creation is sort of a reverse Adam and Eve story in the Book of Genesis. Much like Barbie, Ken is malleable but is almost a worshipper of Barbie and everything she is. Gerwig said that she cast Gosling in the role because of a quality he has about never judging the characters. "He doesn't try and make you know that Ryan Gosling knows that this is silly. He does it in a way that takes on all of the potential humiliations of the character as his own."
