Wada: "FFVII remake = 10x the length of FFXIII project."

[Sephiroth]

Of course I know how it is meant. But I don't understand how much sense it makes to pretend something doesn't exist if it does exist.

The whole Compilation content which could be added in a remake would not be that much because they would not mention characters like Genesis or the Tsviets and it is explained why in the Prequels and Sequels itself - because of ShinRa and their lies. The rest which would be added is information to make it more clear like "How did Sephiroth do this?" or something like that. What's possible is that they add locations like Modeoheim or the destroyed Banora. But I really doubt it. You simply don't have the option to find them and that's it - at least that is what think about how the remake would look like.
