OK now that this dumpster fire of a story is coming to an end can we finally just get the real FF7 with better graphics? That's all we wanted man not kingdom hearts wearing the skin of FF7.

I get where you're coming from, as I have always held the same thought, but having played these remakes I actually quite like that it's not 100% the same exact story. I like the meta plot added to it that explains a lot of changes. It sure is better and way more interesting than simply changing lines of dialogue or key moments without any explanation or diagetic reasoning.

However, I am also not really fine with stretching it out into 3 separate games at full price. It was $60 new originally for the whole game, on 3 discs. Now they want you to pay $70 times 3 for 3 whole games that tell 1 complete story. Shit has the same vibes of greed that Peter Jackson's The Hobbit had.

Just one game on one disc. The same story as the original. No time travel bs. No extra shit. Option between turn-based and action combat (Maybe something like Clair Obscur?) Just do a normal remake. It looks great and the combat is fun but literally everything else about this remake has been a garbage fire
