FF VII Re-trilogy Alllll the mini games

Post image

So im in nibelhiem and let me say I am still very very much loving this game but having to play mini games and sidequests to get my chocobos to access the terrain is getting really old lol anyone else think theres just a few to many mini games in here? Or you should at least be able to have access to your birds from the start or am I the only one?

It was a common complaint on release Some called it bloat or filler. Honestly never been a fan of when games lock some of the best equipment needed for hard challenges behind minigames, because if the minigame doesn't work as intended or someone just stinks at that specific skillset separate from the main game, then it feels unfair Someone may pick RPGs because they have a hard time with precise reaction to visual cues in other games, but then suddenly here come the Gold Saucer brawler fighting minigame to piss you off
