Please do not change the combat of Final Fantasy VII!
The Issue
Final Fantasy VII is considered one of the most influential and enticing games in the history of the medium. While some of the parts of the game's brilliant whole haven't aged well, the combat has remained a core part of the experience and is beloved by fans around the world.
Recently, Nomura-san has indicated that he thinks it wouldn't be a good fit to have beautiful graphics and amazing art represent these characters is they were "still lining up in a row, jumping forward to attack an enemy, then jumping back to wait for their next turn,”
I am here, along with the voices of the gaming community, to disagree entirely. I understand that Final Fantasy 7 is your vision, but so stated George Lucas concerning Star Wars Episode 1. And the backlash Spielberg received after the absurd remastering of ET where the feds carried walkie talkies.
The game belongs to the fans. The game has changed the industry in 1997-2000 to the point where RPGs flourished, and the golden age of the JRPG had dawned. We already have combat from Final Fantasy 15 coming to support the vision of action and intense battles. Please let the fans of Final Fantasy 7 has the game they love with new visuals. It's what we all have wanted for close to 20 years.
