The best way to experience the Final Fantasy 7 prequel is this new remaster.
JRPG fans are no strangers to a bit of tedium. Whether it’s grinding in the tall grass or waiting for a random battle transition that’s just a few seconds too long, the genre is known for producing games that take days to finish, but it’s always best when it feels like the time is just flying by as you get wrapped up in an unforgettable story.
Protagonist Zack Fair is a naive yet wholesome member of SOLDIER that just wants to be a helpful hero, and he isn’t given much more depth than that. The Shinra Corporation that operates the SOLDIER program is pretty evil, so naturally, things go wrong, and Zack finds himself wrapped up in that. This is a prequel to Final Fantasy VII, of course, so you’ll need the context of what happens in that game at the very least. Then it’s a case of discovering what, exactly, Sephiroth’s problem is.
In FF7, Zack is known as Aerith’s late boyfriend, and Cloud’s mentor of sorts. In Crisis Core we interact with each of these characters, but the interactions feel hollow. Zack drops into Aerith’s church, crushing the flowers as he falls. After that, I suppose we just assume that they’re dating or whatever.
Materia and Materia Fusion is present here, and it’s good fun. Fusing Materia to create new, more powerful attacks and abilities is excellent, and if you’re smart about fusions, you can get early access to MP attacks like Thundaga, or AP attacks like Firaga Blade, which means you can get chunky elemental strikes for both of your resource pools.
The old complaints about Crisis Core aren’t suddenly outdated – this is still far from a perfect prequel, but it’s a surprisingly fun game to while away the hours with. Hopping in to just clear through a bunch of missions before progressing through a chapter feels fun, and the cameos and references to the main FF7 cast are guaranteed to put smiles on the faces of fans.
