The Remake of Final Fantasy VII game offers plenty of surprises, graphics, and game mechanics for those who return to it and those who have never checked it out before. The game is a reborn classic in new graphics with a whole new experience. Before the game was released so many years ago, it had a lot of replayability. But now, does it offer a more modern feature where players have the option to transfer their experience from a brand new game to a new plus game mode?
Not exactly. Remake of Final Fantasy VII sort of features a new game mode over, but not in those exact words. It works a little differently.
When you beat the game, you unlock the ability to choose which chapters you want to read again through a chapter select feature. From here you can browse the game on any of the important chapters of the game to complete any challenges you miss or experience your favorite moments right from the start. However, before you jump into the middle of the game, each chapter now features a new hard mode.
The hard mode of the game provides a whole new experience for those who have played through the game before. You may already know the story, but now the enemies are harder to fight, and you may need to use the tactics. vivid pieces you've honed through hours of trial and error to get the most out of each fight streak. All of your progress since completing your first game continues, so your higher-level characters are available from the start. Additionally, each character in your party gains double experience and triple AP after completing a fight. This makes reaching the game's max level 50 much easier.
That being said, the new hard mode isn't a new game mode anymore in every sense of the word. Yes, you can start the game in the first chapter and have a harder difficulty, but it's not a new game more in the traditional sense. It's a bit confusing. However, it still offers those keen to come back to Final Fantasy VII Remake plenty of reasons to start over and try again. For those who miss out on challenges while playing, this is a great reason to start over.
