Square Enix Must Change The Title of "Final Fantasy VII Remake" And Refund Its Customers!
Square Enix Must Change The Title of "Final Fantasy VII Remake" And Refund Its Customers!
The Issue
SquareEnix is deceivingly selling the new Final Fantasy VII game (2020) as it being a "Remake" of the original game (1997)!
Remaster = same story with graphics upscaled. (Example, FFVII for Nintendo switch is a remaster)
Remake = Same story with graphics remade from scratch. (Example, Resident Evil 1 for GameCube, Ps4, etc)
Reboot = Different story and characters design totally changed. (Example DMC:Devil May Cry)
Now, this remake is actually none of the above mentioned options, it is a sequel, it's about a story that happens after the events of the original game.
The common sense right now is that, while in development, the developers concluded they were not able nor competent enough to finish the remake project so they went to plan B, make a sequel and advertise the game as it being a remake anyway.
