well by fanboy I mean is the type that get all emotional and gung ho :P because "you are changing FF7! It was ok as it was! It was perfect"

Hopefully most will realise that they hav a choice whether to play the finished article and judging by all the changes, it was far from perfect.

I think Political correctness got in the way too, for example, one of Cid's weapons is Longinus, the spear that struck Christ. It has been renamed to "Spirit lance" in the english version.

Tons of mistakes with localisation too

Phoenix down = Phoenix Tail
megalixir = Last Elixir

and Ochu isn't even Ochu!
