    I think I'll avoid reading this particular thread for a while, it's making me like people less and less...

    I would play FF7 on a dang Apple watch if I could... If you are worried about graphics, frames and sidebars... Play it on another platform? There's only like 10 others...

    This game is about the story...period

    Yeah, playing on an emulator was definitely an easier experience because I could save at ANY moment. Here, turning on quicksave seems to have done nothing. And I'd rather not be forced to use the in-game save points for every save. But I guess that's how it has to be for now. I just hope they implement a save state option in an update, like most emulators have anyway.

    I'm still really enjoying the game. Quick save not working is a bummer but the original game didn't have it so I just make sure I play when I have a good amount of spare time.

    Also, looks like the game is bugged or something. I can't make it past Aerith's room without running. You can walk a few steps then the game will go into autorun. I've been trying to get past her room for the last 10 minutes. This is insane. She's NOT EVEN AN ENEMY.

    This is pretty game breaking. I don't even know how to contact support since FF7 isn't listed on their site.

    I want to play it so bad! Just not sure if my iPhone 5c can run it. Is there a way to make the game full screen? Instead of the blue borders?

    Welp, I guess this is it for FF7. Your game will pretty much end because you can't escape from your room without getting caught. This is sad.

    why these sidebars

    ff7 was an instabuy for me. no doubt. i played the game on the ps1 in 1997 and i loved it, i still do.

    the game is about the story, i know. but the game is also about the atmosphere – and with those ugly sidebars in the iphone version some of this atmosphere is lost. at least square enix could have made the color of the bars to be modified - blue is too distracting... and honestly looks a little cheap imho...:confused:

    maybe this will be changed in a future update.

    cheers,
    holgersson

    Well I want someone to get to this part to confirm that it's a bug and not just some random screw up that occurred because of some sequence of events I triggered. It's a bit ridiculous really.

    -Hey Rocksteady!
    -What do you want Beebop?
    -Do you remember that game the whole world was talkin about back in '97? Final fantasy seven or sumtin, that wasn't actually final *hurgh hurgh*
    -Yeeeah, what about it?
    -Well, i been seeing these kids last couple of years, playing it on their *smartphones* with something called *emulator*
    -So?
    -I was thinking, mebbe-
    -What are you two idiots talking about?
    -Boss, we was just, Final fantasy
    -What about it? Speak, goons!
    -E-e-emulator, and maybe resell, just we was gonna-
    -I have an idea! I can resell the greatest game of all time, make $$ and the world will be MINE!
    -But boss, the people working on it will want money-
    -Don't be such idiots! I will sell it exactly in its emulator form. It has already been out and working for the last couple of years, only now it will be "official" from its company! Zero Costs!
    -But boss, these buttons and borders look horrible, look at this 0.99$$ rpg for touch, even it has-
    -This is Final Fantasy SEVEN you idiots! Do you know what this means? People will buy even if it's so horrible that even Krang would-
    -Whaaat is this that i hear, dear Shredder? What would i do?
    -Nothing at all, Krang. Do not allow us to disturb your great mind. *bows and whispers* But soon, you will see...

    the only thing Square needs to do is make it so we can zoom in iphone 6+ its not full screen looks like it was intentional since wide screen did not exist back than but it would be nice to have the option to zoom in to make it full screen...

    The game let's you walk but then once you take a few steps it'll auto run no matter what.

    Im stuck in this area too. Basically when you have B held down eventually he just runs, and Aeris puts you back in your room.

    Seems like a bug indeed... And a fatal one at that. Maybe someone can find a workaround for now, but until it is revealed we are effed.

    Personally I think the port is great along with emulator like controls. I am playing on an iPhone 6 and the controls do exactly what they need to do....the borders don't bother me much either. I mean come guys.....this is final fantasy 7 on your phone for gods sake, be happy.
