You don't need to replace the cast you just need better writing.

and in that regard first I'm make the characters less whiny, Quistis is never a teacher just a normal member of SeeD because sorry she's just too young to be an instructor, Make Zell less of a fuck up, make Rinoa even less of a fuck and have her and Squall's romance not be forced, make Squall Significantly less emo, Give better character development to Selphie and Irvine, Have Ultimicia hinted at much earlier and more prominently, no need to do the same with GF amnesia becasue the orphanage twist will be removed altogether, instead they will have all been in the same class when SeeD first started and they all know it and Edea was their teacher and they all know except maybe one or two of them forgot but none of that orphanage amnesia shit.

Also maybe give Ultimecia a little bit of back story. Like maybe show that SeeD in the future is a very oppressive force that makes whole families disapear on the mere suspicion that they have a sorceress in their bloodline and with Ultimecia's specialty in time magic is looking for a timeline where she doesn't get killed by SeeD.

Now as for mechanics not much needs to change except the junction system. Bring back traditional stat level gains and make the increase in stats from GF's be like in FF6 and have junctions be for status and elemental atk and def only.
