FF7 remake producer on why epic remake is epic: http://na.square-enix.com/us/blog/final-fantasy-vii-remake-psx-2015-message-yoshinori-kitase
With FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE, we have the opportunity to go beyond the story, world and experience of FINAL FANTASY VII in ways we’ve always dreamed of - from the depths of Midgar to the skies above the Planet. The multi-part format enables us to expand the original story and turn it into an epic experience for fans and new gamers alike.
Didn't know the Japanese went so casual. FF15 was incredibly simple when it came to combat wasn't it? Just push a button and you dodged automatically. Don't even have to move in a certain direction.I'm not sure the Japanese are asking for a remake since neo-Nippons wouldn't care about the game if FF7 was released today in its original glory, but this remake is very much aimed at them as the demographic. Square hosted a poll for the FF15 demo after releasing it and the results were pretty lukewarm for the Japanese, whereas westerners loved it. Common complaints were that it was too difficult and too long. The same thing was said about Xenoblade Chronicles X when it was released in Japan. They hate long games now. Looking it at from that angle you'll begin to understand where all the squashing is coming from and why they are going for bite sized segments. FF7 was a titanic game when it came to length and content. There's no way a game like that would be well recieved by the Japanese in the current climate.

Neat observation.I have to say I love Cloud's desing in the new gameplay trailer - his body tells a story of it's own. If you come across a heavy drug user, you can immediately tell just from looking at his dehydrated, pale and skinny face that something is terribly wrong. Similarly, Cloud's body tells that he's sick - he's still recovering from severe mako poisoning and just a couple of days ago he was barely able to walk.
Cloud is not your typical cool angsty anime hero, but a person who has been drugged, tortured and broken to a point that he has lost all sense of self. Cloud's body tells this story. To me this design decision shows that there are still some creative people working at Square and that the remake might actually end up pretty decent.
I hope this fails fucking spectacularly. Square has its head so far up their ass they can't see anything anymore.
Biggs, Wedge and Jessie were pretty cool and Midgar is the best part of the game. It's so disappointing as soon as you leave Midgar and you're on this green world map where the most generic RPG town ever is 15 steps away. I have no problem with them making Midgar bigger.http://gematsu.com/2015/12/final-fantasy-vii-remake-part-one-scenario-complete
As previously announced, Final Fantasy VII Remake is being broken up into parts as the density of the original game would not allow a remake to fit into a single release, according to Square Enix.
- They want add delver further into Biggs, Wedge, and Jessie.
It sounds like this is getting the Hobbit treatment, secondary characters getting their own arcs that either have no meaningful impact on the story or end up retconning stuff, just to pad out the playtime in each environment, to suit the episodic format.
Just because SE can't do TB right, doesn't means TB itself sucks. It's damn well acceptable as it once was, I hope faggots like this guy just die.

did you even read the article, you dumb fuck? what good would it do to put TB in a game made by SE, if they "can't do TB right"?
I hope in this rambling, I helped explain why turn-based combat might not be as acceptable as it once was.
ATB systems – and really any menu-driven, turn-based, combat system – is something I’ve had the opportunity to think a lot about. As someone who grew up with the very beginnings of Final Fantasy, I had the benefit of being able to draw upon a lot of experiences with these kinds of systems
