I swear to God, if this game too keeps forcing me to slow walk...

[Zyrconia]

...I'll get angry :).

Never mess with my walk speed!

[The Ultimate Despair]

You will DESPISE the opening segment lmfao. I won't spoil but there is one part where you need to slow walk for an eternity.. an eternity of 5 minutes but felt longer.

[Mr Fox]

yeah!!!! may the power of double step be with you!!!!

În fact, I'm afraid most of the game will be filler... FF7 Remake is good, but has a ton of filler.

And SE never had any skill for open worlds or side quests... At least in the games I played...

But we'll see soon! :D

Not that soon though, won't finish the remake until Rebirth comes out.

Like always, i will use speedhack with Cheat Engine to toggle the game speed. All i need to do is to check a box. Even hotkeys are there.
There is nothing i cannot fix with 5 times the speed! (Works only in offline games)

i hope yoiu are okay with segments being slow for immersion and ♥♥♥♥ but most of the time you just run fast, jump and get a chocobo to traverse. you also have fast travel!

filler can be good because it gives you more context to the story and tyhen there's anime filler episodes that doesn't contribute at all to the story. in FF7's case you get to know more about cloud, sephiroth and surrounding parties such as shinra corporation. there is alot of unanswered questions in the original and i'm glad there is alot of filler that fills in that context.

more story in a heavy story game is always welcomed.

Marvel’s Spider-Man? You definitely can.

On-topic, there’s still quite a bit of forced walking.

Spiderman is fine. Relitivelly short cutscenes. I never thought those were a drag. In fact they are great, so is the story. Like that bit with the doc: surely, he is smarter than that. Surely both are :).

FF7 on the other hand is a drag: multiple times a chapter the game forces you to slow walk or some thing that should be playable is a cutscene for no good reason, like those acknowledge "cutscenes": oh wow cloud, maybe we can use this console. Oh wow cloud, you managed to use this console!

It is not a huge deal, but it does drive me crazy! Forced walking needs to be internationally banned :P.

[MatthewKai]

Even worse, near the start it forces you to slow crawl while everything is on fire :) it’s a good game though and once the game opens up it’s addictive.

[Zyrconia]

Jesus, chapter 12 is the most poorly paced thing I have ever seen. The story and cutscenes set up the urgency and epic scope of everything, but everybody is taking their sweet time, wasting time, having small talk, Cloud fights like 3 guys at a time instead of punching the ♥♥♥♥ out of helicopters and Aerith even says something like "no need to rush, take it easy" while slow walking and everything is blowing up and everybody is going to die.

lmao this is true.

Op for what it's worth it is used rarely and only for effect now, instead of to hide loading screens on old ps4 hardware

[Zyrconia]

Was going to buy anyway, slow walk or not, but I'm 20h into Remake and I'm convinced. Just got it :).

[Valdo82]

Walkspeed is fine, i hope there is not every 3s a tight wall where you have shimmy through, stretched missionareas that are close to overstay their welcome and all that stuff that tries to add overall around 5 hours of gametime.

[Iron Reaper]

it’s a 200hr game if you do everything, and if you speedrun the main story it’s about 40hrs. there are only a few instances of squeezing and it’s used for effect which is fine
