What makes him such an awful choice?

I agree with you on the press aspect. I guess it's just not a big issue to most of them.
I also agree about the PS2 classics lineup. But it's something at least. I'm mainly interested in the major games, so that gets the job done.
That looks terrible... the scale of of them are so off.

God damn this thread... There needs to be a trigger warning added to the title.
He has a fake aura of enthusiasm to his personality and they frequently have him speak in butchered English overseas, which sounds unprofessional to me. Bring an interpreter with him and he should speak in Japanese.
Reactions like this....
This thread was created while everyone was watching the event live. It's not so much the thread title by itself as it was people having just seen this announcement take place.

Honestly, do you think SE would have done it better?
This is a case where it's making it worse. Square is doing better by keeping it the same.

So.... this totally isnt making its Spring release date is it?
Unless its a PS+ game or something unexpected.

I whinny my fervor lowly, for his length is not as great as those of the Hylian war stallions
a PS+ game would take the sting out of the original troll.
Correct me if I'm wrong but Spring is March to May right? Type-0 HD releases this month so I won't be surprised if a week or two after they say "Yeah it's coming late April" or something.

I still cannot believe they had the audacity to do this.

All I can say is this thread is more fun than any of the Final Fantasy games I've ever played. It really feels like Square is trolling people on purpose.

Have they said anything regarding enhancements or modifications ? How likely is it for the game to have a brand new translation done by competent people (such as Alexander O Smith !) ? That's pretty much all I want. That and trophies.
Amazing. Adding flashes of the gameplay trailer shown at PSX over his face (Akin to the dog/cupcake/vietnam gif) would make this perfect.
This is what we come here for.
*Jim Ross Voice* My Gawd!
If it's anything other than a straight port of the Steam version I'll be shocked.

I bet they are so fucking pissed they lost the original files.
Just re-rendering those backgrounds would be so nice. Not possible since, apparently, they lost the source.
I wonder what happened to Square after their fusion with Enix. It's just like after the fusion it's some other company, totally not the old Square we all used to know. I really miss the old Square Soft, mostly for FF7, FF8 and FF9.
I assume they don't want to make a real remake cause it would take more time development time tan FFXV which already took almost 10 years of development. Plus FF7 is a legend, why destroying a legend if they are not confident enough?

At least you can talk. Who are you?
I STILL think ig can be done, and its just a missed oppurtunity.
Will someone in 20 years be able to play VII as it is? Hell no, eventually square will re-make it
I assume they lost the original files for VIII and IX too? I wonder what res the images would've been? Probably not 1080p.
Square Enix should just hire a team of talented artists to redraw them, similar to what Lucas Arts did with Monkey Island: Special Edition. I doubt it would take that long, there's really not that many backgrounds in FFVII.
Remaking the world map would also be a fairly simple task I think. All it would take is reskinning it with high res textures and it would be good to go, but even starting it again from scratch wouldn't take very long. Square Enix are just lazy.

I'm still baffled a new localization has never occurred, the game needs it.
I'd like to see a touch up or a simple remaster for VII, but I'll be really surprised if we ever see a full blown remake, there would be so many unhappy with it as it just rides too a difficult line, stylistically. I can't even imagine the reaction if they hyped up the PS4 remake everyone clamors for then debuted the cute, SD models to go with it but by that same measure they'd also (deservedly) catch massive shit for updating it and adapting the original game to fit the more modern Advent Children style of things.
For as big and flashy as it was, Final Fantasy VII was just so much more firmly in the VI camp than the VIII camp. The spin-offs are one thing but I really think they're in a sore spot when it comes to doing anything with the original other than a couple coats of paint.

Yeah, seriously. It's been 18 years with tons of re-releases and one of the main character's names is still mistranslated. Like, huh? That's the least of the localization's problems of course though.
I was expecting it to cut back to the laugh but that is superb, great job! hahaha!
Imagine if they actually announced a remake? The reactions would've been better than Kingdom Hearts 3 reactions-
