Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy 7, released as part of the Compilation of Final Fantasy 7, is often overshadowed by its more popular counterparts like Crisis Core. Despite its mixed reception, the game features Vincent Valentine in a third-person shooter format that combines shooting and physical combat. Critics pointed out flaws in its shooting mechanics, which relied on an automatic targeting system that made gameplay feel monotonous. However, the game’s concept has potential, as it allows for a unique experience in the rich Final Fantasy universe, filled with diverse enemies and settings. The article advocates for a remaster or reimagining of Dirge of Cerberus, emphasizing that the character of Vincent and the variety of foes could make for an engaging shooter. With the success of recent titles in the franchise, there is hope that Square Enix might explore such creative endeavors, potentially breathing new life into this forgotten title.
