Quite. One of the biggest "talking points" about FFVII is its uncertain ending. It's not possible to know for certain what happened; however Advent Children is certainly going to resolve some of those issues, it seems.

You know what's strange?

For a long time, a lot of people complained that FFVII should have some kind of follow-up, either a sequel or prequel, movie or game. They said that Square was refusing because they're a selfish profit-driven company which cares about nothing but making money.

Now, however, a sequel's been announced, and people are saying that it's proof that Square's a selfish profit-driven company which cares about nothing but making money.

Looks like you just can't please everybody...
