I thought the Final Fantasy VII Remake was being made in GMS2. Huh...
Every time I hear something about this game I get nervous. All they had to do was bring the graphics up to today's standards, clarify some things that got lost in translation the first time around, and add voice acting. They didn't need to add a bunch of new plot points or ditch turn-based battles or do whatever the hell they're doing with summons. That being said, every time I see new footage I instinctively go for my wallet (You can actually see materia in your weapon? Here's sixty dollars.) I don't necessarily think it'll be a bad game, its just a matter of whether or not it'll feel like Final Fantasy VII. I feel like the franchise as a whole has been missing something intangible for a while lately. The last game in the main series that has really felt like a "true" Final Fantasy to me (not counting the FF VIII remaster) was probably FF XII. Hopefully this remake can recapture the magic, but I don't know if that's a realistic thing to hope for.
But yeah, let's get to work on remaking FF VI and Tactics. Seriously, people.
