I don't know if this thread is some kind of reverse psychology of reverse psychology but I honestly don't want a remake and thought it was cool they were bringing the enhanced PC version on PS4 (just wish I could get it cross-buy on my Vita :/). I used to question those who didn't want a remake but after playing VII so much over the years I realized why I cherish it so much. Hideo Kojima remarked in his 2009 GDC keynote that classic games are created because of their hardware limitations, not in spite of them. I honestly don't think FFVII could be made better by voice acting or an over-the-shoulder camera. I am sad that younger gamers might not ever appreciate it but they should be free to discover their own classics. While I'm known (unintentionally) for strong opinions on this forum, I never ask that others share them, or look down on those who dont.
What I'd rather see is Square remake the *concept* of Final Fantasy VII with all the tools they have today: an RPG that blurs the line between story and gameplay by letting the player interact with their environment and granting control during the intense action scenes. Give us stylish combat that pays homage to the tactical turn-based roots to boot. In any case, I'll be glad to go through the adventure again when it releases on PS4.
