So I can understand changes based on like "social-political" or whatever stuff you want to call it. People are way mroe fucking sensitive in 2020 then in 1997. Does that mean they should make the changes? I don't know. There is this thing in one of the asassin's creeds games where they purposely changed some things, like a description of a multigendered classroom in an era where only males would be present. Historically accurate? No. But okay? Probably. Or something like say old looney tunes episodes, a lot of which would not fly if they were created today for the same audience. Would it be okay to remake those and change the things that people later accepted as objectionable?

I don't know how to get through with you here. These aren't the same issues in the slightest. The original translation for FFVII was already an innacurate, unfaithful, poor representation of the game to begin with. It was the result of a one man rush job by a guy who didn't actually get to see the game and was translating from a broken up script document.

It's like if they remade the original Pokemon anime and you got mad because they changed them back into rice balls in the dub and didn't call them jelly donuts anymore.
