Final Fantasy 7 Remake Turns Into a Total Mess On PC
Follow Us
Square Enix’s Final Fantasy 7 Remake is a great title, without any doubt, with regard to PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4. However, the title recently received a much-anticipated PC port and it turns out that it’s going to be a terribly poor experience for the fans. At least, that’s what the people at Digital Foundry had to say about the newest release for its arrival on PC platform.
John Linneman, who’s the Senior Staff Writer at Digital Foundry, shared a tweet about his honest thoughts on Final Fantasy 7 Remake’s gameplay on PC. In his tweet, he mentioned how terrible the title comes across as and also mentions that the presentation isn’t smooth.
Additionally, the version for the PC also lacks crucial options in the graphics settings. He had received several clips from his other colleague, Alexander Battaglia.

The latter had tested the PC port with RTX 3090 combined with the Intel 10900k. Surprisingly, the resolution used was just 1080p, and still the experience, according to Linneman, was extremely poor.
Alert: Alex sent his clips over for us to check out and, yeah, the PC port of FFVIIR is terrible. He captured this using an RTX3090 + 10900k at just 1080p and it's a mess. The smooth presentation was central to its story telling and this version compromises it. https://t.co/wE9Wj1OAEz

On the other hand, the latest PC port of Final Fantasy 7 Remake is missing almost every important aspect such as the graphics settings, according to the tweet from Digital Foundry’s John.
Surely, this is unexpected, especially for a high-end PC launch such as the FF7R. For example, there’s no option to change framerates or any way of tweaking anti-aliasing. Options for controlling VSync and the motion blur are also missing, as of the time of writing.
