> Fans ask for an FFVII remake for 10+ years
> SE finally announces a remake
> Said remake is an action rpg and split into three parts
> A proper retranslation of FFVII in English has yet to happen despite I-VI having multiple translations and the fact that VII's original translation is literally incomprehensible. For example, the use of the word "clone" had people arguing on FF boards for years when the proper word is "doll" or "puppet". This is a basic core part of the games story and even that is presented incorrectly in the original script.
>SE has decided to leave fans of the original FFVII adrift, with no new translation in English, catering to bring in new fans with a remake by giving it an action-based battle system despite old fans of the game requesting it all this time.
For these reasons and many others, I will not be purchasing this remake despite FFVII's place as a landmark game in my life and not only my first Final Fantasy, but also my first RPG.
Toast, SE.
Oh, and btw, fuck you.
