Isn't that xenosaga?

Also wasn't the first ff7 remake part a bit underwhelming? Like 16? And 15? Why are people still putting faith in these games.

People didn't like the ending of part 1 but reception was very positive regardless. You're always going to get purists who don't like where Square-Enix is taking their games, but FFVIIR is one of the better attempts by a long shot.

Should I play FF7 on Switch before starting the remake trilogy? Im thinking it may make me appreciate the remake more, but on the other hand the remake may be more enjoyable if the plot is completely new to me.

Yes you should play OG, not only because you will appreciate it more, but because FF7 is a great game on its own

Yes, I believe you should play through at least the first disc.

Trying to find a delicate way to put this: Sometimes the plot assumes you've already played the PS1 version.

I know theres story changes. Im mainly wondering if the 2 games are different enough that it wouldnt feel like Im just playing a worse, outdated version of the same game. Turn based vs. hack n slash probably makes a big difference, gameplay-wise

I'd say that like...80% of the plot and characterization in the remake just doesn't exist at all in the original. It's like if someone tried to remake the Star Wars OT and crammed in a bunch of random supplementary stuff from the EU. It's not going to feel redundant at all unless you specifically only care about the main story beats.

I would just do it. Taking into account what the other poster said, and also the original game still holds up and is actually fairly short for a JRPG. I remember it feeling epically long as a middle schooler but I replayed the remaster semi recently and it was only about 30ish hours for the main story (and really easy unless you do the harder side content)
