It’s honestly kinda crazy how long some games spend in development. The Final Fantasy 7 Remake trilogy is a perfect example of something that should’ve been quick but ended up being so bloated and took forever to make.

FF7Remake was announced in 2015, got stuck in development hell for a bit, released 2020. The sequel released 2024. The third one still hasn’t been teased yet. How many people are attached to a franchise if it takes 10 years to get the full story? I loved the first remake but dropped the second one, I just didn’t care about the story as much as I did ~5 years ago.

      I just realized that that game was made by Edmund McMillan.

      Honestly if you have played any of that devs games you would have known going in that that is basically exactly how you might describe most of them.

        The only reason I even checked the game out was because it was Edmund. I put with his (literal) shit in Isaac because both it and this game are very well designed from a gameplay perspective. Not gonna reward putting murderers, rapists, and genocidal zionists in a game about doing cat eugenics though.

          I’ve been playing Issac again lately because Northern Lion has been releasing videos again.

          Still a great game.
