The bad thing about this sequel is that, like other people might or might not have mentioned (I haven't read all the posts in all the threads), it completely negates the controversial ambiguity of the ending of the game. When you (SPOILER)see Red XIII running with his descendants past the ruins of Midgar, you used to wonder "So was the human race eliminated?"

Obviously, you know the answer to the question now, and it kinda puts a damper on what mystery the game had around it. For that reason, I've always been skeptical of the possibility of a sure-fire sequel and, also for that reason, I wouldn't be interested in what happens after the real crisis.
