Yes, it implies they would set out to make a cohesive remake. Exactly what this thread is complaining they chose not to do.

You mean a worse remake. Just say you wanted them to do it 1:1, the boring way, like I know you want to.

as it is, theyre improving and iterating. Rebirth has new things and new systems, which makes it more fun to engage with rather than just doing the exact same thing as the last game. It also means you arent stuck using Fire the entire first game and get to use Firaga. There are huge design benefits to doing it this way, far more benefits than downsides. The benefit of carryover is.. what even? You have some stuff that is swiftly outclassed for the first 30 minutes of the game?

It turns out the professional game designers actually thought this through rather well and went with the option that makes the most sense, and know better than random internet commenter who wants them to just create FF7 but shiny.
