Anyone that is suggesting FF7r should be action based needs to be punched in the arm.

Maybe a new take on turn-based battles like X or whatever but action-based!? That's where we went wrong with all the other Compilation games. >_<
 
Don't forget the most important questions:
6. Will Frogs still be douchebags?
7. How fucking cool will Matra Magic be?
8. Will we finally get to romance Barret as we head into the Northen Crater?
9. On a scale of Baby Mario to Nanako how adorable will Marlene be?

The real question - can we still go on a date with Barrett??

Everyone has been talking about how the funny awkward scenes won't work w/ realistic assets and characters. But... maybe that will just make them ALL THE MORE AMAZING.

whatever the outcomes is people will rage, the combat will get overhauled. it needs to be a hybrid. I'm calling it now no one will be happy cause changes will occur.

It doesn't need to be, but it will go that way with Nomura directing. That's what I think at least.

It should still be turn based but with a revamped, faster, and more fun combat system.

No random battles. If they have to include them, make it like Bravely Default and allow you to turn them off when you want to.

I'll take whatever they give us and be fine with it. If it's great, awesome. If not, it won't change how I feel about the original. (Kind of the way my feelings for, say, Game of Thrones don't change how I feel about the books.)

I'm excited to see what we get.

Totally agree. There seems to be a certain "purge mentality" regarding turn-based games that kinds seems really mean spirited. "You turn-based games, you don't DESERVE being on consoles. Go back to where you BELONG, on handhelds!!". While I think both can co-exist, part of me hopes a resurgence of turn-based love happens just so people like that could be knocked down a few pegs or two. The whole "extreme" views of "this should belongs HERE and that belongs THERE" should never be catered to.

I hope you're not talking about the WiiU title. I'd rather have the classic old system over that or FF XII battle system.

Action Based > Old Turn based >>>>>>>>>>>> X/FF XII

Wow. were you also one of the 20,000 people who bought type-0?

good for you guys.

No.
I only buy mainline Final Fantasy games (and Tactics) If SE would have brought FFX or FFXIV to the Xbox One, I'd have bought them there.

I certainly bought FFXIII on the 360. Gotta have those achievements.

Yep.

You people are lunatics if you want FFVII to be anything other than turn-based. If anything they'll probably get rid of battle transition screens, and have the fights occur in real time (think Chrono Trigger) but that's about it.

Action based combat doesn't lend well to controlling three characters in combat.

I just pre-ordered Final Fantasy VII Remake. Can't believe it.

Now to cancel it because it wont be out til 2017.

I use to do this at Babbages. $5 down got you a little piece of paper with the game's title written on it by the employee. It was a sign you had a guaranteed copy coming. Now a days you won't get anything but a receipt and possibly an email.

I'd hate to have this come with some horrible CE/LE. I don't want some rubbish like the UMD holder for Crisis Core. NA should get something nice.

I'm so exited, I'm not even exited. I've gone full circle guys.

Seriously, for me it's a bit too little too late for me on this. I'm still very, very glad it's coming out but I'm just not feeling it right now. I seriously don't know why.

I don't know, maybe right when it's about to come out I'll feel that fanboy giddiness that everyone is feeling.
 
I hope its closer to FFX and FFXIII then anything Kingdom Heartish or FFXV. They should tweak the battle system not tear it down and begin anew.

I don't want an ARPG, yeah, but something more like XII or X-2 at least ought to be the baseline for modernization here.

Yup. Keep the turn-based system, make it faster and flashy(like FFXIII, in terms of flash), but keep the control over the full party. I stress that last part because I dislike the trend of inching away from full party control into full single-character control/AI party. If there are any unexplored avenues in gaming, programmers SHOULD focus on, it's retaining the full control aspect in modern gaming template.

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
FFVII PS1-version on iOS YES!!!!!

Are they using the dreadlocks Barret in this? Really like that version.

Also hoping they don't take playable characters out of the roster for this game since its a remake.
