Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade PC Review - The Final Verdict

While the PC aficionados out there who really like to get waist-deep with different types of texture filtering and asset detail might find the assortment of graphics settings less than robust, especially when compared to games that were developed specifically for PC, I think what the developer was able to throw into this version of Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade is suitable to get the experience you want out of it.

Being limited to raising or lowering overall shadow resolution or overall texture resolution might feel like conducting surgery with a hammer rather than a scalpel, but the way these settings specifically function for this game do get the job done. Plus, there’s no denying that this is such a great, well-designed game that, if you’re really playing it to have fun, you won’t be spending too much time worrying about it’s simplified approach to performance anyway.

I was hoping this review would talk about what was new in intergrade vs the remake release. Instead, it seemed like he found 20 different ways to say the same things about the graphics customization not being good enough.

Before we move on to the review let's take a moment to thank our today's sponsor - Square-Enix

Wow, this review has really made me doubt these guys reviews. If this isn't paid for my square Enix I would be shocked, had to laugh when he said it has a healthy dose of settings . There's only textures and shadows ...oh and resolution which has DRS enabled that you can't turn off without a mod . How can anyone take these guys seriously after this review ? This is an extremely barebones port that doesn't even run very well ...not too mention it's over priced and only on the Epic sore.
It's dodgy port and this a very dodgy review !

this video has no dislikes so i guess i'll trust it, thanks Youtube!

"Graphics - a commendable selection of options *scrolls down the camera control menu*"

This should be taught in schools as what a paid review looks like.

[adventuresofzach]

How is that a healthy range of display options? It's embarrassing....there's like two things you can really adjust that do horrible for a £69.99 game...the fact that you don't address that makes you lose any credibility.

God of War... better port, better options, better performance, better price, better support since day 1. That's how you release an older game on PC.

[AngeloL]

It has performance issues on most PC's. How did you miss that?

[AngelicRequiemX]

I will never take Gaming Bolt's reviews serious again after this one. Talk about dropping the ball...

[MegaTrevor]

Seems to me that square-Enix would rather pay for fake reviews than actually fix the terrible port; there is no way this game is worth 70 dollars in any reality

[xavierabii]

This is the only positive review of this port I've seen. Sounds like a super red flag to me.

[xSoulWardenx]

This review really does minimize the fact that graphic options in this game are bare bones especially compared to other PC ports.

That aside the game itself is awesome. Definitely worth playing.

[nickblack]

£69.99 and it has awful performance, ok then.

[VegetaEx]

No Ultra Wide it seems at 80 Euro, will wait for a Sale.

[Dragon]

it looks alright but the serious lack of endgame stuff and true replay ability doesn't justify the price tag. I'll wait another 2 years for the price to come down.

[TRONiX]

The worst PC port to date.
Typical 2021 buggy release, wait for 9 months of patches...
It seems Square-Enix issued accidentally a debug version of the game that normally is not intended to the final public. This may be the cause of the many issues this game have on PC. There is no word from developers if the public will ever see the vanilla build on PC at this point in time. Pc game wiki

Never been a FF fan, so I got this because everyone was raving about how good it is... after playing it for 8-10hrs I have to say I'm still not a fan of the series.

[snmdair]

So how much did Square Enix pay for this review?

[keikei]

I appreciate these type of "reviews" as they lead me to unsub soon after. Thank you.

[neilsimmons]

I was skeptical of getting the game because of all the buggy reviews but only experienced very minor jitters, not enough to ruin the game at all in my opinion. I'm running a 3080 so maybe that helped but overall it's one of the finest game I've played in sometime.
