I love the revisionist history of people convincing themselves they didn't want a 1:1 remake when that's all anyone asked for.

Thankfully we are all not a hive-mind, because I enjoyed practically every single thing they did with FF7 remake with my main hang-up being I am still waiting and seeing where the whisper thing is going in the grand-scheme. Familiar setting, familiar characters, new situations and a way better battle system. (And I will never pretend otherwise. FF7 remake ATB/action, the weapon and materia system is better than the original's in everyway).

I'm the type of guy that prefers that all my classic childhood and teenage favorite games get a huge effort type of remake in comparison to something more simple. Even trials of mana's more modest remake was pretty sweet to me.

I think the ones that play it safe like star ocean 2 R and switch's super mario RPG is nice for what they are, but if I had the option for grand big-budget go all out remake for old rpgs like star ocean 2, tales of phantasia, shin megami tensei 1, parasite eve, breath of fire 1 and phantasy star 4 I'm taking the big-budget, ambitious for better or for worse yolo option every single time.

I have always operated on the mentality that my childhood/teenage favorites.....those old games will always be there to play when I crave the nostalgia. Even if its by emulator, I will always have OG FF7 available to me. I have played something like chrono trigger straight up like 20 times.....give me this crazy gorgeous, big-budget cel-shaded bat-shit dual tech's out the ass unreal engine 5 chrono trigger plz.
