I'm surprised to be honest. I expected more people to be against this shit here on /vr/.

Personally, although I'd love to be able to delude myself and believe the opposite, this remake has all the signs pointing against it.

First off there is Nomura directing, which is terrible since he has shown to be completely unable to do something right if he doesn't have someone making tabs on him like when Sakaguchi was still producing at Squaresoft.

Second, I don't really feel like searching for a source, but countless times he has mentioned how "different" he would have done things in games like FF7 or FF8 if he had full director's duties and, if we take a look at the projects he directed then we will see a pretty grim situation.

There is no need to name drop autistic shit like Kingdom Hearts here, is enough to look at how they already raped FF7 with things like Advent Children and Crisis Core. With CC is even sadder because the game itself is fine, they just fucked up in one thing: the story. They fucked up the one thing they already established in the original game because they wanted to retcon characters like Genesis into the main cannon and it ended up making no fucking sense.

Won't bother about Nojima and Kitase. Like Nomura they have shown that, at last in FF7 related projects, they have lost it.

tl;dr do you remember all the kids who played KH, watched AC and loved edgy Cloud? all the people who "loves" FF7 but actually never played it because "shit graphx"? This remake is for them, and for them only. I hope I'm mistaken and when SE starts showing off gameplay and stuff it looks wonderful and faithful to the original material, without any Genesis nonsense and "cool&epic" changes for the modern audience, but I know it just wont happen.

What are the most overrated retro games?
