I'm somewhat suspicious of the FF7 remake, in the same way that I dislike the RE2 remake and am suspicious of the RE3 remake. They seem to leave no room for the argument that maybe there's actually value and virtue in the "awkward" things they seek to erase and smooth over.

I absolutely agree, and that's part of why I'm glad this doesn't appear to be a full "remake". It changes everything to an extent that makes it not even directly compete with the original in graphics or gameplay. And if they lean into that aspect, it'd even fit some core themes.

I love the original FF7 and cherish its "wonkiness". The character models, writing, and even writing fit a mood and flow that is a distinct experience. It should be allowed to exist as it is.
