Its unreasonable to expect every new game to be a new IP. Studios would collapse quickly that way.
Also Square does better than many at relesaing a wide range of IPs each gen, you have FF and lets face it each game is so different from the last they may as well be a new IP. DQ, KH, NieR, Octopath, Diofield, Triangle Strategy, Valkyrie, Star Ocean, Foamstars (lol) etc etc.
Modern S-E ain't perfect, but they've improved a lot from the dark days of PS3. I'd say since the second half of PS4 gen they've started to get their shit together slowly.

True, but Octopath is not an old game, fresh IP in general.
All good, thought you meant Square specifically.

Did it well too since its contextualized as a literal South-North pilgrimage. Features plenty of meaningful world building along the way instead of making you read the menu. Has the best turn based battle system in the series. Did I mention its the fifth best selling ps2 game, a console which had over 4000 games?
Yes its beloved

Can we pls stop this comparison nonsense?
There's a big difference between 10 minutes corridors and 40 minutes corridors.
And there's a difference between killing almost all monsters with 1 attack and finish encounters in 2 minutes, and spending 5 minutes on a lot of encounters.
XIII tests your patience in a way X could only dream of.

That's because ironically FF7R isn't a remake

When FFVIII?

I'm not in the mood to hunt now, but there are plenty of pools made by companies like Famitsu, etc that puts FF X in the top 2 or top 3 most popular FF.
plus, like Hops said, its the number 2 or 1 best selling FF of all time.

Sales don't make it beloved to me. I bought it, twice even. But I like many FF games ahead of it and most people I've talked to over the years didn't have it in their top 3 FF games. 4, 6, 7, 9, 11, 12 were the games that I heard the most, not 10

And I like them both
I'm more excited by the all but confirmed FFIX remake.
I wonder how many teams they're having working on these remakes and who is going to develop FFXVII. They must also be looking at a new MMORPG as a successor to FFXIV.
A FFXII remake calling back Matsuno to flesh out the story better than they did in the original would also be great.

Give us the original vision for the game with Balthier as the protag, no Vaan or Penelo.

Question for all, in a hypothetical remake (please god may it be real), how would you want them to handle the sphere grid?
Keep the same, simplify, or scrap it for something new?
I'd like them to keep it the same. Even though it was fairly linear, I did feel it added some depth and variation to the game.

If done right, it would be incredible. But they must keep the CTB system in place - it's the best battle system ever used in a turn-based mainline FF. FFX would not work as an action RPG... How would they incorporate the summons?
Some minor tweaks to pacing would also be appreciated: we don't need to fight Seymour five fucking times.

I think this game stands the test of time well enough, but if they want to remake why not. However I'm sure the thing that was missing from FFX, which is an overworld map with a controllable airship, will not be featured in a remake.

Man, is that really right? It looks like the ones on the right are newer/higher fidelity than the left. Confused.I would be more opposed to this remake if they didn't botch the remastered version as much as they did.
I played through the remaster recently and enjoyed it but wasn't fine tooth combing it either. It's also been well over ten years since I played it on PS2 so it's not exactly fresh.

Yep, it's real. They redid the faces completely and botched it in the process, making it look MUCH worse than the PS2 original. The faces don't emote correctly and just look souless/creepy as hell.
This video shows it perfectly, just look at the difference in emotion:
