Final Fantasy VII Remake

I said "No" but "Not sure" is good too.

I´m fine with original, all I want glitches fixed and maybe new dungeons with hard bosses but not storychanges. Unfortunately this is very unlikely to happen, like Dazz and maybe some others have said. Spinoffs are Cloud/Vincet/Tifa/Aeris- centric so main game would be too. Also since nowadays you can´t have any stereotypes Barret would be completely ruined, and I don´t any story changes or even dungeon changes. All those puzzle and platforming thins should be in the game and also all scenes, including Drag Cloud and Mukki raping Cloud.

There is just no way this is going to happen no for remake. Or make remake and a port to PSP like IV-VI advance ports. They had no storyline changes and new dungeons and beastiary, thats all I need.
 
All the FF games seem more birght and cheerful these days. I don't think the animation they use for FF's now would capture that darker side of VII that it origonally had.
 
Yes, but I don't want it with a new battle system, I want it with the classic FFVII system. Sure the originals great but when newer people look at it, they won't see the classic (unless they are like super fans), they'll see a poorly graphiced game.

I want a remake to show the gamers of the 'next-gen consoles' what a true and classic RPG is. I don't really want a remake for myself, I am satisfied with the ps1 classic, but for all those people out they're who look down on this classic RPG for it's graphics.

Okay I may have just repeated myself about eighty times but my point is clear...ish....
 
I would'nt mind seeing a remake but of course like most remakes they would ruin it.
It would also ruin the whole originality of FF7.
 
As I've probably already said, I'd love to see a good remake of FFVII. However, I would also like to see a piece of crap remake, to teach people that not everything Square Enix makes is gold. Because I'm pretty sure there are some newer fans who think SE is the be-all/end-all. ^^
 
I think square enix have already showed people that not everything they make is gold. They did that with ease
 
I definitely want a remake. I would love to see the story fleshed out more, with orchestrated music, with better cutscenes.

I can't begin to imagine what some parts of the game would look like on the PS3. Bahamut Zero, or Knights of the Round anyone? Or even the awakening of the Weapons in the North Crater!
 
Remember it's not the same people who make final fantasy before. They bascically fuse the whole X and X-2 and XII idea with VII. Massacre

Yeah i agree i would love to see how it turns out & the brilliant cutscenes, but it just wouldnt be the same.
 
Of course it wouldn't be the same. xD Because it would be Next-gen graphics by a less than sub-par development team that has next to none of the people who made the first game...

The best way to get it done is have Mistwalker, if not developing it, oversee it. But that won't happen, because Square Enix can't POSSIBLY team up with veterans of the biz to get the job done... :/
 
I don't think there will be a problem with the remake as Kitase who is working on FFXIII directed FFVII. Get him and his team from FFXIII (they also did the FFVII Tech Demo), and if needed, Tetsuya Nomura who did the character designs for FFVII.

I would also like to see a flashback cutscene of Jenova wrecking havoc on the Ancients.
 
theres a reason why theres alot of things we dont understand about the original game. if you played through it and understood every part of the game...it still doesnt make sense, there are some loop holes. there will be a remake, just not now but for sure in later future when SE is not as filled with projects to do.
 
I did not read through all 40+ pages of this thread so I do not know if I'm posting something already mentioned.

The good news with the remake, IF and When it happens, is that most of the top guys who worked on it could work on it again. Here's the list off Wikipedia - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Final_Fantasy_VII

Hironobu Sakaguchi - Game Producer, Original Scenario Concept. He won't be back, he's at Mistwalker

Yoshinori Kitase - Game Director, Scenario writer. He's producing FFXIII and is also working on the FFVII Compilation. I see no reason for him not to work on a FFVII remake in a Producer/Director role.

Tetsuya Nomura - Character Designer, original scenario concept. I could see him lend any help if needed, aside from him working on any future KH games.

Kazushige Nojima - Scenario writer, event planner. He has since begin to work as a Freelancer. Square-Enix can hire him for this just like they have done for other games since he left SE in October of 2003: Crisis Core, KHII, FFXIII, Before Crisis, Chain of Memories, and Advent Children.

Yoshitaka Amano - Image Illustrator, title logo designer. If needed he is also went Freelance. He has also worked on FFXII, and the three FFXIII games.

Nobuo Uematsu - composer. I believe he too is also Freelance.

If the remake does happen I think it would be in pretty good hands :)

True, but didn't Yoshinori Kitase and Tetsuya Nomura also work on DoC?:blink:

I think if they got their heads on straight there's a lot of potential there, but I get the feeling Kitase/Nomura is a combo just to big and full of itself to do this without turning it into a massacre.
 
Kitase and Nomura working on DoC doesn't mean that they will mess up a remake; they also worked together on FFVII. You have to take into consideration that DoC was a 3rd person shooter. That was their first attempt at that type of gameplay, instead of doing what they are used to, making RPGs.

They have the story, they know what they need to do to keep it within the context of the games/stories in Before Crisis, Crisis Core, Advent Children. Those stories came from the original FFVII, they really can't change the story, if they do, it would contradict the stories in the prequels and sequels; thus making those games/movie a waste.

The only thing they can do with the story is expand upon it, ensuring all the pieces fit throughout the canonical compilation.
 
I do like the new story elements, though I'm not sure I agree that all of them came from the original story, some of them seem to have come from no-where. It's tricky because the original story was never complete, they had to rush the release so there are a lot of elements that were left unexplained. But people have come to love the game regardless of its ambiguities, and I suppose it makes some of the new storylines acceptable. The problem that even the original team would have in making a remake would be how to tie up those loose ends left in the old game, and add the new elements, without upsetting fans who didn't notice that the original was incomplete.

I would be very open minded about the story, I just hope that they can pull it off.

As for the team, I agree, they should have stuck to making RPGs and DoC was a bad attempt at a different genre, but after reading a lot of interviews with those guys I just get the feeling that they think they've grown too big for the industry, it all sounded very stuck up, I wouldn't want them to go into a remake thinking that they could do no wrong because of some holier than thou attitude.
 
I think they themselves should do FFXIV and see if they could do that well first. Trial runs or something.

What loop holes exactly you are talking about? I understand pretty much everything, ending is a bit shady to me but otherwise I undestand all. Well some is assumptions but not everything needs to looked with a magnifying class. (sorry didn´t know how to say one good saying in english so I came up with a magnifying class)
 
Most of it makes sense. There were a few unfinished bits but this was all little snippets not completed by Squaresoft in the rush to release the game. All the essential elements were intact though.
 
That might be a good idea. I'm not sure who's working on FFXIII or even what I think about it, but if they prove they can bring out a decent FF themselves then a remake would be more appealing. And if it went wrong, then they might get a bit of perspective, and maybe tone down the "I';m invincible because I invented FFVII" crap.
