A Comprehensive Guide
| Everything you need to know about FFVII including a detailed story scenario guide (based on the PS International Version), concept art, original ideas and much more.Approached by the director of FFVII:AC and character designer of FFVII, Tetsuya Nomura, the Bent Studio staff was asked to produce this book so that people could enjoy FFVII once more. Under the supervision of Square-Enix, here is the resulting work of the Bent Studio staff.The book is divided into four main sections - Story Analysis, World of FFVII, Ultimate Play and Omega Material.Instead of presenting you with a walkthrough of the game, the Story Analysis does what it's named. After introducing you to the cast of characters through detailed biographies, you are greeted with a large number of pages devoted to the scenario flow of the game. Main events of the story are summarised through screenshots and brief boxes of text. There are also highlights of any side dialogue or events that you maybe interested in. One good example is the adventures of Johnny, a side character who most people will probably have ignored during their gameplay. Johnny later plays a small role in the story of "Case of Denzel", a short story that's part of the "On the Way to a Smile" collection.Besides the highlights, there are also flowcharts to show you what could happen when you had to make a decision in the game during Cloud's dialogue.Once you reach the strips of screenshots that end the story, you find a few pages explaining the more mysterious concepts of FFVII that helps clear things up. These include the Jenova Project, Shinra's Soldier, the Reunion, Lifestream and many more topics.Next we have the World of FFVII section which consists of all the various locations being mapped out. You have screenshots of areas that are accompanied by captions, explaining the various objects that are lying about. These are then followed by pages showcasing the various transports available in FFVII complete with their technical specifications. The whole section then ends with an encyclopaedia of the items you can obtain as well as the various enemies you come across.Reaching the Ultimate Play section, we have pages detailing how to beat the Weapons, the strongest bosses in the game. There is also a guide about how the Studio Bent staff finished the game in just under seven and a half hours.Finally, we come to the most interesting part of the book - The Omega Material. Besides a dating guide (part of the game, of course), there's a list of little fun secrets that you can access along with pages that showcase the various Limit Breaks and Summons using a stream of screenshots.Following all the ingame material are details of the original game ideas that never made it into the final version such as character design and dialogue changes. If that's not enough, you also have a selection of the pencil drawings that Tetsuya Nomura done during the design process. Although they don't cover one entire page of the book, you can still makeout the comments on them.With the final section of the book coming to a close, it goes onto introducing the other FFVII related products, some that never made it to the West such as Ehrgeiz; a beat-em-up game for the PS featuring the FFVII cast. After an interview with the original game staff, it also introduces you to the products that are part of Square-Enix's "Compilation of FFVII" project which includes the FFVII:AC movie. The book then ends with a 15 page story entitled Hoshi wo Meguru Miko (The Maiden who Travels the Planet) which takes part after Aerith dies in the game, featuring her as the main character.Overall, this is a solid and comprehensive guide to the world of FFVII. You can enjoy the whole story without turning on your PS or PC and loading up the game now. However, you will have to have a fair knowledge of Japanese to enjoy all the information and story this book presents. For FFVII fans who don't know Japanese, maybe the Omega Material section will be enough reason to buy the book. |
