Then why are you posting in here? And wtf is with everyone watching Advent Children first? o_O Seriously, you don't start out on sequels.

I do not think the plot will be changed if Final Fantasy VII is remade.

And how would you know if you haven't even played VII? They already introduced things in Before Crisis and Crisis Core that will require them to change VII if they want things to stay consistent.

Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII hints the possibility of a Final Fantasy VII remake. The remake may have an orchestrated soundtrack with some Black Mages arrangements. The orchestra conductor would be Kazuhiko Toyama, who conducted for Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII. The orchestral arrangements would be recorded by the same studio that recorded for Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII.

But you're not Square Enix now, are you?

Then go out and play it before joining in discussion about it, otherwise you will get raped like a muddafukka.

You can't really comment about that, seeing as you've never played the original in the first place, you don't know the story.

No it doesn't. The ending is merely a hint to people like you that there is infact an original Final Fantasy VII to play.

So go play it now fool....

As much as I like The Black Mages they can actually fuck off from this. I want the original music, not some tarted up bollocks to give it a more mature mood, as it surely will be if a remake ever happens.

People are worried that the remake will ruin the originality? Dunno, I think the Compilation already did that.

The compilation just made people look down at anything FFVII related, it was pure shit granted but at least it was all different. A remake is something that is without any originality whatsoever since it'll be pretty much exactly the same as something before it.

Do you really think they wouldn't try to fill all those gaps in the story? add all the bits of story that all the spin offs made? Tune up the battle system? Add bits to 'improve' gameplay? Change the soundtrack to perhaps modernise it? Would the hell do nothing origonal. If the were in the way of doing that none of the FFVII spin offs would never have been made

Agreed. I don't want rock music in my Final Fantasys, it was bad enough having Otherworld in X. Just a tuned up soundtrack, maybe orchestrated, would be fine.

Correction: just made people who aren't fanboys look down at anything VII related. The remake will obviously have originality, since they're going to have to tweak it if they want the prequels to make sense and not go against canon. Plus, like Dazz said, they're sure to change the gameplay too (I just hope to god they leave in random encounters and don't make it that crap system XII had, or even worse, action). I wonder if they'd take away the over world map too...I hope not, it was fun coasting around in Cid's plane.

*just thought of something*

I wonder what they could do with that submarine battle...and searching for the Gelnika and Emerald WEAPON...I think I just made myself slightly interested in seeing a remake.

You really should work on your writing Dazz, I couldn't even understand those last two sentences.

I'm really not sure if I want one.

In one side, yes, I'll love to see one of the my two FF games with the PS3 graphics because I'm sure that it will be great, if I can judge but the redone opening and seeing the complete game like that wouldn't be bad.

But in the other part, I think that they are abusing of the great response they had with the FF7 franquise, I mean to much of something good can be too much.

Who am I kidding? If that games come up I'll but it and then I'll steal the PS3 from a friend since I still don't have one...kukuku

I am not Square Enix, that is just a possibility that it would happen. I did not get a chance to play the original Final Fantasy VII. I heard about the plot, gameplay engine, and characters of the game. The plot might be changed a little in order to correct the continuity errors between the two prequels and Final Fantasy VII.

Well then don't state your opinions on possibilities like "it WOULD have this and it WOULD have that", it's annoying. You make it sound like fact rather than speculation.

Secondly, the fact that you've heard secondhand the plot of VII and haven't played the game makes your opinion on the subject invalid. I suggest looking for the game on eBay, or a local gamestore if you have any that sell PSone games. And just to warn you, you won't find any that are much cheaper than $70. If you do, you're lucky.

Third, we have already stated that the plot would require changing to stay consistent with the prequels. You're only stating the obvious that has already been said.
