Non-notable game per WP:NVG; no significant coverage other than self-published sources. Drm310 ( talk) 20:30, 24 February 2016 (UTC)
I believe that the topic of the page is noteworthy as per WP:NVG; the page now lists multiple independant sources which have blogged/discussed the game in question, which has existed for close to a decade, with a significant history in Second Life as 1 of only 2 Second Life roleplays to exist for that long..

- Comment - Notability is established through non-trivial coverage in reliable sources. Reliable sources have an established reputation for fact-checking and editorial oversight. Blogs and other sites with user-submitted content are self-published sources and generally not considered reliable sources. One of them (Engadget) appears to have editorial control, but the others don't. SLFFVII's own website is a valid primary source but won't count toward establishing notablity. -- Drm310 ( talk) 04:04, 25 February 2016 (UTC)
- Delete. Looking through WP:VG/RS custom Google search engine, I found a piece by Destructoid (essentially the same as Engadget's) and nothing else. Does not meet notability, could be mentioned in one sentence at Final_Fantasy_VII#Legacy. soetermans. ↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK 11:01, 25 February 2016 (UTC)
- Delete as a non-notable fan video game failing WP:GNG with no reliable independent in-depth sources, such as WP:VG/RS. No meaningful hits in custom RS search. Engadget and Destructoid is not in-depth and covet only a narrow aspect. Other sources in the article are not reliable or in-depth. The available sources do not provide enough material to write a meaningful article without WP:PLOT and WP:GAMECRUFT and with WP:WAF in mind. — HELLKNOWZ ▎ TALK 13:07, 25 February 2016 (UTC)

- Delete at best as none of the listed coverage suggests convincingly for the applicable video games notability. SwisterTwister talk 07:11, 1 March 2016 (UTC)
