Hmm... I see... you know what I think? In my opinion, Cid messed it up. I mean, seriously. What the hell is he talking about? Cid is clearly not the kind of guy who can memorize dialogue verbatim. If this is the style people have been so desperate to preserve, well I can't react how I would like to without being an a-hole.
Jack: How do you know?
Will: It's more of a feeling really.
Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?
Will: No.
If Demolition Man were remade today
Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
Huxley: NO!
Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
Huxley: You need to leave, John.
Spartan: But Huxley.
Huxley: Get out!
Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.
By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.
As is the case with Battletoads & Double Dragon, Genesis version is better.
I suspect that bit of dialogue with Cid is one of the many moments in the game that didn't really survive the translation from Japanese to English. It doesn't really make any sense with or without Cid's apparent epiphany, but it probably did in the original dialogue. Though wasn't it basically a reference to one of those old black and white movies (Brief Encounter or something like that)? That's how I always saw it. If so it's been translated from English to Japanese and back again and as we've seen from messing with Google Translate that can do some pretty funky stuff
I'd love to see these various moments rewritten now they have a much bigger team behind it.

I am really not worried. I've been waiting for this for years. If they manage to screw it up, well we still have the original. But I am actually pretty confident in Square's remaking abilities, it's one of the places they've never failed me. (As long as we ignore mobile 'remakes' *shudder*).
Hm... I do recognise the points raised in the article, though I didn't actually think of many of them myself - but most of those concerns actually speculates on alterations to elements of FF7 that I wasn't all that happy with. I'm looking forward to the remake, whenever they actually release it.
While I'm worried about most of the points, I think the first one you pointed out is one we don't have to worry about, Fynn.
Bravely Default showed Square that turn based combat still has its place. I think the battle system will be relatively untouched.
My friend Delzethin is currently running a GoFundMe account to pay for some extended medical troubles he's had. He's had chronic issues and lifetime troubles that have really crippled his career opportunities, and he's trying to get enough funding to get back to a stable medical situation. If you like his content, please support his GoFundMe, or even just contribute to his Patreon.
He can really use a hand with this, and any support you can offer is appreciated.
It definitely will and Nomura has practically confirmed it. They are looking for a more realistic and immersive experience and personally I think that is a clear indication that stuff like random encounters and separate battle screens are going away (I won't miss them, really). I would be happy if they do a battle system similar to XII, with seamless battle and exploration as well as a gambit like system that lets the AI control your characters but which also allows you at any time to micromanage things. A system like that blended with the materia system of the original would provide quite a bit of depth and room for experimentation, not to mention it would be lots of fun.5. The game will play differently
I don't think that will be the case with the remake. For starters it looks like they are going to use the same engine as XV, so that alone cuts a lot of development time. They also do not need to expend the time needed to come up with all the characters, story and world as it is very much done already. The game has also been in production for over a year with plans to reveal more info this winter. I think it coming out in 2017 for the 20th anniversary of the game is a good bet.1. The Final Fantasy VII remake will take forever to come out
Will they keep the boss lineup or will they add new ones and/or swap out old ones? Most bosses are one-offs with no plot relevance (Aps, Rapps, Schizo?) and can be replaced, any machines can be reimagined/renamed, any boss versions of the common mook such as Materia Keeper or Red Dragon can be replaced by more unique enemies)
The bosses most likely to be kept include the following:
Ultima Weapon (FF staple)
Hojo
Palmer (possibly because ShinRa)
Rufus (same)
The Turks (probably; and f-u, I hope to see some new Turks from BC)
Jenova
Sephiroth
Possible new bosses include:
Genesis (because f-u)

That would be smurfing horrendous. Which head do you chop off first?
I'd actually be down for that instead of the Genesis we got. Really, anything's better than Gackt in Mary Sue mode.That would be smurfing horrendous. Which head do you chop off first?Possible new bosses include:

I sure hope they don't include that abominaiton of a character called Genesis in the remake.
It's actually just going to be a giant SEGA Genesis robot. The battle will be set up for you to lose because nothing compares to the awesome power of the Genesis.
Nothing!
There is no reason to include a character that sleeps, except hinting him. Genesis is back for the sequel then. Just after Dirge of Cerberus.
I'm ok with whatever changes, additions Square makes. The fact that they are remaking the game is incredible. I just hope that the world does not feel as "soulless" as Advent Children did.
