    Be nice to play this again.

    I still think Sephiroth is an overrated villain. ShinRa was more interesting to me.

    Final Fantasy VI could use a remake.

    Good luck getting an VI remake, though I agree it's by far the best in the series

    Fans have been dying for this remake for a long long time. Nice to see it finally happen x3

    I thought Jenova (Sp?) was more interesting...

    I hope the game manages to keep the feels from that one really sad moment in the game alive and doesn't ruin it somehow.

    I never get to finish FF7. Guess this is a good time as any.

    I know most don't share my opinion, but I sincerely hope they don't use turn-based combat. Something in the style of FF15 with the (apparently, never played 7) good Materia system would be awesome.

    I couldn't get into the original FF7 thanks to the wack ass graphics (normally not a problem for me in games, but holy shit I hate how FF7 looks) and I was never grabbed by the storyline, probably due to the weird translation and the way the script was handled.

    I have confidence it's gonna be much better now that they're remaking it, definitely a brave move for them to remaster what so many people consider the pinnacle of the series. Although I don't own a PS4 I think this would be fun as fuck to play. Count me excited~

    I agree, VII has not aged well in the graphics department. This isn't so bad in some areas, but in close quarters or some places, it makes overlooking items or paths too common. Though some of the in-battle graphics aren't too bad, like the summons.

    As for the story. It took a while for it to 'kick in' for me, and it wasn't courtesy of Cloud. It was due to individuals like Cid Highwind and even ShinRa. There's some great moments in the game, they just don't come as often, which is why it feels like a step back from past games.

    I wonder if they'll keep their VII looks/costumes, or give them their Advent Children attire.

    Don't be dissin on turn-style

    I personally want it to stay turn based. I've always liked that system.

    I think the system in FF 15 looks pretty intriguing though.

    Yes, yes it was.

    ---------- Post added 16th Jun 2015 at 05:37 PM ----------

    Hard to say ^^"

    I just hope they keep to the story and don't try to "re-invent" something that was already good.

    Here's the main issue...

    When Final Fantasy VII came to North America, and even in Europe, several pieces of dialogue was changed and some censorship made. Not as much as before, no, but it isn't the exact game that was released in Japan. What I'm curious about isn't so much totally overhauling the game, but whether or not we'll get a word-for-word script or one to better reflect the original content.

    It's funny to think back to a time when games were dramatically censored, because companies didn't believe the West could handle some material. But that's me showing my age...

    Oh yeah, I'd love to see them get closer to the intended content back when the game was first released.

    I more or less meant "Putting a spin" on it or something stupid.

    The whole "This is good, but I can make it better" mentality.

    Don't get me wrong, I like the turn-based system of older games. But it's an old system that doesn't mesh with the state of the art. Especially after playing as Cloud and Sephiroth in Dissidia. I feel like ARPG-style combat like FF15 and the Kingdom Hearts series is the best way to go.

    So excited about the remake! FF7 was my first of the series and my favourite. The whole futuristic industrial world was really cool..
    I actually HOPE they keep the turn base, and the whole materia and everything. Not a fan of the battle systems in the recent FFs :/ (I actually liked having to learn all the dif mechanics in FF7, 8, 9..)

    Well I for one don't want to keep playing the same turn-based game with different animations hitting each other.
