FFVII Remake is za warudo.

Now I've had time to settle down and stop shaking, I've had time to think about it. Thinking about FFVII as a whole, with its humor and quirks and all, I think they'll ruin it. I honestly do. I think they'll make it way too dark and broody and turn it into what VII has become since the game came out.
BUT SCREW IT, IM RIDING THE HYPE TRAIN ALL THE WAY TO SECTOR 7, TOOT TOOT. THIS GAME ARE SICK!
I think there's a very high probability they'll smurf it up.
But, we're finally getting a game that pretty much all of us have been wanting for 10 years, so I think we should just sit down, shut up, and be excited and grateful for the time being. There will be plenty of time to bitch and moan about how it's different than the original later.
They could keep everything in it from the original game and people would still bitch, so...

I'm excited. Interesting that everyone is saying 'is this detail in it, is that detail in it'. If you want everything that was in the original FFVII then go play it again. It's still pretty good.
I do expect they'll retain the spirit of the original and keep the major events and gameplay intact. They may update the ATB to be a quicker or more automated but I don't expect it to be an action RPG or anything like that. SE has lost our faith in many ways but they're not completely lost.
I wonder if this announcement means that they are officially out of ideas. I always expect them to do this as the last effort to save the company.

I like to think that during their rehab of sorts they realized, "People want a FFVII Remake. Let's give it to them." Of course, that means there's no way it's coming out by 2017 with how big of a project it'd be, but I'm not bothered. We'll probably get the HD port or something in 2017.
If it don't start out like this I won't like it. :P
I really hope they don't mess this up. If they decide to do a total re-write of the story making it a different or "more this age" game might suck. They did it right back then but I don't remember any of that trailer in the game so it could be possible it is not the FFVII we all loved but could be something more like XIII.

Games completed - 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10, 10-2, 12, 13, 13-2, 13-3 Tactics, Tactics Advanced, Crisis Core, Dirge of Cerberus, KH, KH2, And played 11.
Considering the original game came out in 1997 with all the limitations of the first PlayStation, and Midgar was bigger than what we got to see, it doesn't come as a surprise we'll get to see more of it in a PS4 remake that wasn't shown the first time around. I doubt we'll get another FFXIII after everything they worked on since being much better than that. Not that it's hard to make something better than FFXIII, mind you.
Obviously, but since most of the things people went nuts over regarding Versus XIII/XV was when he was the director, I don't have a lot of reason to doubt him right now.

Apperently a big reason they are doing it now is that the felt if they waited to much longer, they would be to old to do it, and wanted this game done with the original staff.
Also, Cross Dressing scene will still be there, and it sounds like there may be tweeks to the story.
Happy to hear they've already been working on it for a year and wanted to do it with the original members, and frankly I agree with him. Why have the same exact game on the same console? Tweaks to the story sound better than a complete rehaul for those concerned. It could also just mean they're ironing out plot holes from the original game.
I'm even more interested for more information now when winter comes.

They will inevitably miss a lot of the little touches that make the original what it is. To recreate everything as it was in a 1080 3D environment would just be too much of an ask, I think.
