    Probably just people who haven't played the game since they were 12 years old

    I really hope they don't take away all the options in the game like Sephiroth has suggested. The great thing about FFVII is that you can play it how you like it, and see different things depending on how you play it, and how there are so many optional quests.

    I would also not wonder about Wall Market being retconned.

    They cannot do that part and still reach a younger fanbase.

    Seconded. I don't think the Wall Market has anything that'd be particularly alienating to a younger audience.

    The same way they did when kids were playing the game in 1997.

    It has a completely different effect with realistic graphics. And they were aware of that when they even mentioned exactly that part in an interview a few months or years ago.

    They pulled it off before, they can do it again.

    I am sure that back in 1997 FF7 graphics were AMAZING and that didn't stop them.

    The bad parts of wall market isn't what we see, but what it implies that is going on when we can't see. That will still be the same with good graphics. Worst case scenario, the game will be rated 16+ instead of 12+. 16 year olds is still a reasonably young audience compared to the age of the average gamer (which is around 30 now).

    They already confirmed Cloud in drag, so it's safe to assume Don Corneo is in there.

    The problem is not that those graphics were not amazing at that time, because they were, the problem is that how people perceive things also depends on how it is presented for them. A brothel, Don Corneo and all that stuff is pretty hard to pull off as the same kind of joke without cartoony looking characters. And I don't think they would risk a 16+ rating. They mentioned it before so they are aware of it, no matter what finally comes out now.

    The FF13 trilogy had a 16+ rating, so they're certainly not afraid of it.
