I grew up on FF. This “remake” has not impressed me. I wanted to like it but every possible story beat is done worse than the original. I feel FF16 felt like doing homework.
Capcom is showing every studio how actual remakes should be done. They don’t spend 7 years and over 100 million USD to do it. They all sell block buster numbers and is exactly what the old fans want with the upgrades and quality of life changes the new fans want.
The only way to convey to the decision makers at Square Enix I do not like their game is with my wallet. If you feel the same way I recommend doing the same. Do not pre-order, do not buy.
