Final Fantasy 7 remake and rebirth uh Final Fantasy 7 remake and rebirth uh discussions and long form content so I discussions and long form content so I discussions and long form content so I found this channel called uh Orion I found this channel called uh Orion I found this channel called uh Orion I think is his name and then he collabed think is his name and then he collabed think is his name and then he collabed with the hen so I saw more of hen's with the hen so I saw more of hen's with the hen so I saw more of hen's videos through that and then I saw this videos through that and then I saw this videos through that and then I saw this video that the hen did with one of my video that the hen did with one of my video that the hen did with one of my favorite gaming YouTube channels which favorite gaming YouTube channels which favorite gaming YouTube channels which is resident Arc so Mike from Resident is resident Arc so Mike from Resident is resident Arc so Mike from Resident Arc guessed it on that um discussion and Arc guessed it on that um discussion and Arc guessed it on that um discussion and they were just talking about video game they were just talking about video game they were just talking about video game remakes what many modern remes have done remakes what many modern remes have done remakes what many modern remes have done that they like and what some Modern that they like and what some Modern that they like and what some Modern remakes have done that they don't like remakes have done that they don't like remakes have done that they don't like and where they want to see some remakes and where they want to see some remakes and where they want to see some remakes going and like even outside of video going and like even outside of video going and like even outside of video game remakes like they talked about the game remakes like they talked about the game remakes like they talked about the Disney remakes which are not like Disney remakes which are not like Disney remakes which are not like capturing real essence of what the capturing real essence of what the capturing real essence of what the movies were trying to convey and they movies were trying to convey and they movies were trying to convey and they like for lack of a better word like some like for lack of a better word like some like for lack of a better word like some just call them soulless so to speak and just call them soulless so to speak and just call them soulless so to speak and it it it's very interesting because I it it it's very interesting because I it it it's very interesting because I haven't had a connection to Final haven't had a connection to Final haven't had a connection to Final Fantasy 7 I I'll give that example or Fantasy 7 I I'll give that example or Fantasy 7 I I'll give that example or Persona 3 like I I was never around Persona 3 like I I was never around Persona 3 like I I was never around during the PS2 era I never played those during the PS2 era I never played those during the PS2 era I never played those games originally like whenever like I games originally like whenever like I games originally like whenever like I play a remake play a remake play a remake first I it's it's hard for me to put first I it's it's hard for me to put first I it's it's hard for me to put myself in the shoes of someone who myself in the shoes of someone who myself in the shoes of someone who played the original first and especially played the original first and especially played the original first and especially someone who played the original back someone who played the original back someone who played the original back when it came out like I know a lot of my when it came out like I know a lot of my when it came out like I know a lot of my fellow J RPG content creators were like fellow J RPG content creators were like fellow J RPG content creators were like there they were like teenagers or like
-
there they were like teenagers or like there they were like teenagers or like young adults in 1997 when Final Fantasy young adults in 1997 when Final Fantasy young adults in 1997 when Final Fantasy 7 came out and many of them like are 7 came out and many of them like are 7 came out and many of them like are very impressed with the remake or some very impressed with the remake or some very impressed with the remake or some people have some issues with the Remake people have some issues with the Remake people have some issues with the Remake and that that also goes for something and that that also goes for something and that that also goes for something like Persona 3 like during the PS2 era like Persona 3 like during the PS2 era like Persona 3 like during the PS2 era like you played it then back when it like you played it then back when it like you played it then back when it came out or it also sort of relates to came out or it also sort of relates to came out or it also sort of relates to like if just played that original like if just played that original like if just played that original version first or whichever version you version first or whichever version you version first or whichever version you just have more of a connection to like I just have more of a connection to like I just have more of a connection to like I I'll I'll give an example right now uh I'll I'll give an example right now uh I'll I'll give an example right now uh Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time I played Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time I played Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time I played that when I was like 11 years old that that when I was like 11 years old that that when I was like 11 years old that was 11 years after the game came out so was 11 years after the game came out so was 11 years after the game came out so like if you if you do the math you can like if you if you do the math you can like if you if you do the math you can figure out how old I am so I I wasn't figure out how old I am so I I wasn't figure out how old I am so I I wasn't like around during the N64 era but I like around during the N64 era but I like around during the N64 era but I still have a massive amount of nostalgia still have a massive amount of nostalgia still have a massive amount of nostalgia and love and respect and adoration for and love and respect and adoration for and love and respect and adoration for that game because of how much it means that game because of how much it means that game because of how much it means to me as a person as a gamer and the to me as a person as a gamer and the to me as a person as a gamer and the impact it had on me so I I think ahead impact it had on me so I I think ahead impact it had on me so I I think ahead to the future I think about how some to the future I think about how some to the future I think about how some people feel about uh Final Fantasy 7 R people feel about uh Final Fantasy 7 R people feel about uh Final Fantasy 7 R Trilogy and all that they're doing there Trilogy and all that they're doing there Trilogy and all that they're doing there and then I think about like if a of time and then I think about like if a of time and then I think about like if a of time were to get a were to get a were to get a remake what would be the reasons for it remake what would be the reasons for it remake what would be the reasons for it and what would it provide to the already and what would it provide to the already and what would it provide to the already existing aaren of time and what would it existing aaren of time and what would it existing aaren of time and what would it provide to the greater Legend of Zelda provide to the greater Legend of Zelda provide to the greater Legend of Zelda series I I made a video about this
-
series I I made a video about this series I I made a video about this earlier in the year just discussing some earlier in the year just discussing some earlier in the year just discussing some of the rumors about it I don't really of the rumors about it I don't really of the rumors about it I don't really remember what I said but I was I remember what I said but I was I remember what I said but I was I remember I was a little hesitant about remember I was a little hesitant about remember I was a little hesitant about it it it because when when companies do these because when when companies do these because when when companies do these remakes specifically like Disney and remakes specifically like Disney and remakes specifically like Disney and Square Enix I've Square Enix I've Square Enix I've seen a lot of the times they do it to seen a lot of the times they do it to seen a lot of the times they do it to play on The Nostalgia to bring you back play on The Nostalgia to bring you back play on The Nostalgia to bring you back in oh remember how good this game was oh in oh remember how good this game was oh in oh remember how good this game was oh remember the memories you had of the remember the memories you had of the remember the memories you had of the game but a lot of the times it may or game but a lot of the times it may or game but a lot of the times it may or may not recapture the same essence of may not recapture the same essence of may not recapture the same essence of the original like I I know a lot of the original like I I know a lot of the original like I I know a lot of people were even saying that with people were even saying that with people were even saying that with Persona 3 in terms of the visual Persona 3 in terms of the visual Persona 3 in terms of the visual identity and things like that but to to identity and things like that but to to identity and things like that but to to me I never really felt that because I me I never really felt that because I me I never really felt that because I didn't play Persona 3 Fez or Persona 3 didn't play Persona 3 Fez or Persona 3 didn't play Persona 3 Fez or Persona 3 Portable or anything like that so that's Portable or anything like that so that's Portable or anything like that so that's why I mentioned a of time because like I why I mentioned a of time because like I why I mentioned a of time because like I I think into the future like if AR of I think into the future like if AR of I think into the future like if AR of time time time happens will I feel like something is happens will I feel like something is happens will I feel like something is missing will I feel like something is missing will I feel like something is missing will I feel like something is not being like truly captured within not being like truly captured within not being like truly captured within that remake that they choose to create that remake that they choose to create that remake that they choose to create with that game and the only instance of with that game and the only instance of with that game and the only instance of something like that happening where like something like that happening where like something like that happening where like I have played the prior game and then I I have played the prior game and then I I have played the prior game and then I play the Remake it has happened with the play the Remake it has happened with the play the Remake it has happened with the Pokemon game like it happened with Omega Pokemon game like it happened with Omega Pokemon game like it happened with Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire I was actually Ruby and Alpha Sapphire I was actually Ruby and Alpha Sapphire I was actually really impressed with those games back really impressed with those games back really impressed with those games back when I was in high school
-
when I was in high school when I was in high school because Sapphire and emerald were like because Sapphire and emerald were like because Sapphire and emerald were like very formative games for me like I think very formative games for me like I think very formative games for me like I think I even played them before diamond I even played them before diamond I even played them before diamond platinum black and white yeah I played platinum black and white yeah I played platinum black and white yeah I played them like very early in my gaming life them like very early in my gaming life them like very early in my gaming life especially Sapphire I played that game especially Sapphire I played that game especially Sapphire I played that game so so so much as a kid I still have my so so so much as a kid I still have my so so so much as a kid I still have my GBA cartridge and when I saw them like GBA cartridge and when I saw them like GBA cartridge and when I saw them like on the 3DS I was like wow this is so on the 3DS I was like wow this is so on the 3DS I was like wow this is so cool it was bringing me back to those cool it was bringing me back to those cool it was bringing me back to those days but I I remember playing it and a days but I I remember playing it and a days but I I remember playing it and a lot of the additions of like Mega lot of the additions of like Mega lot of the additions of like Mega Evolutions and all that it was cool and Evolutions and all that it was cool and Evolutions and all that it was cool and I remember specifically making or I remember specifically making or I remember specifically making or building the same party of the six building the same party of the six building the same party of the six Pokemon that I had to beat the Elite Pokemon that I had to beat the Elite Pokemon that I had to beat the Elite Form but there there was just some Form but there there was just some Form but there there was just some aspects and some Vibes of that game that aspects and some Vibes of that game that aspects and some Vibes of that game that didn't feel didn't feel didn't feel as like it it didn't feel like the hoen as like it it didn't feel like the hoen as like it it didn't feel like the hoen that I remembered and that was gonna that I remembered and that was gonna that I remembered and that was gonna that's that's natural especially for a that's that's natural especially for a that's that's natural especially for a remake like that especially if it's remake like that especially if it's remake like that especially if it's shifting its visual identity entirely shifting its visual identity entirely shifting its visual identity entirely and then of course there's the example and then of course there's the example and then of course there's the example of brilliant diamond and Shining Pearl of brilliant diamond and Shining Pearl of brilliant diamond and Shining Pearl which the problem with that wasn't which the problem with that wasn't which the problem with that wasn't really it's staying true to form because really it's staying true to form because really it's staying true to form because it was a very true to form very by the it was a very true to form very by the it was a very true to form very by the books remake but the problem with that books remake but the problem with that books remake but the problem with that was it just was very Bland and very was it just was very Bland and very was it just was very Bland and very basic and very very ordinary kind of basic and very very ordinary kind of basic and very very ordinary kind of remake I expected a lot more additions remake I expected a lot more additions remake I expected a lot more additions in there so of course that's me just in there so of course that's me just in there so of course that's me just being nitpicky and all that but that's
-
being nitpicky and all that but that's being nitpicky and all that but that's also my Nostalgia for those games back also my Nostalgia for those games back also my Nostalgia for those games back then and me just kind of accepting and then and me just kind of accepting and then and me just kind of accepting and realizing that those remakes aren't realizing that those remakes aren't realizing that those remakes aren't going to fill me with the same desire as going to fill me with the same desire as going to fill me with the same desire as it did back then when I was a kid it did back then when I was a kid it did back then when I was a kid playing Pokemon Sapphire for the first playing Pokemon Sapphire for the first playing Pokemon Sapphire for the first time and like exploring the oceans of time and like exploring the oceans of time and like exploring the oceans of hoen like that that was just hoen like that that was just hoen like that that was just mind-blowing to me as a kid and then of mind-blowing to me as a kid and then of mind-blowing to me as a kid and then of course Diamond and Pearl I I I don't course Diamond and Pearl I I I don't course Diamond and Pearl I I I don't think anything will ever come close to think anything will ever come close to think anything will ever come close to the memories and impact that that game the memories and impact that that game the memories and impact that that game had on me when I was a kid and that is had on me when I was a kid and that is had on me when I was a kid and that is just one thing that's one thing I wanted just one thing that's one thing I wanted just one thing that's one thing I wanted to talk about the recapturing the to talk about the recapturing the to talk about the recapturing the essence of these remakes and now the essence of these remakes and now the essence of these remakes and now the next thing I want to talk about is how I next thing I want to talk about is how I next thing I want to talk about is how I feel like companies should prioritize feel like companies should prioritize feel like companies should prioritize remakes and how I am realizing that remakes and how I am realizing that remakes and how I am realizing that that's not what they're doing and it's that's not what they're doing and it's that's not what they're doing and it's probably not what they're going to be probably not what they're going to be probably not what they're going to be doing it's a interesting concept doing it's a interesting concept doing it's a interesting concept actually because like you see a lot of actually because like you see a lot of actually because like you see a lot of games that are just kind of like dead games that are just kind of like dead games that are just kind of like dead and like no one's like doing anything and like no one's like doing anything and like no one's like doing anything with them like no one's re-releasing with them like no one's re-releasing with them like no one's re-releasing them and you're like why don't you them and you're like why don't you them and you're like why don't you remake them like Xenogears is always the remake them like Xenogears is always the remake them like Xenogears is always the example I go to unfinished game example I go to unfinished game example I go to unfinished game fractured fractured fractured fragmented dis 2 is like very rushed fragmented dis 2 is like very rushed fragmented dis 2 is like very rushed it's like a visual novel that's ripe for it's like a visual novel that's ripe for it's like a visual novel that's ripe for the picking take that remake it and you the picking take that remake it and you the picking take that remake it and you basically almost got a full-on game and
-
basically almost got a full-on game and basically almost got a full-on game and an example of like a remake that had an example of like a remake that had an example of like a remake that had already came out which embodied that already came out which embodied that already came out which embodied that Essence I like to say it's like Fire Essence I like to say it's like Fire Essence I like to say it's like Fire Emblem uh Echo Shadows of valentia Emblem uh Echo Shadows of valentia Emblem uh Echo Shadows of valentia because like imagine going back in like because like imagine going back in like because like imagine going back in like 2015 2016 to someone like me who had 2015 2016 to someone like me who had 2015 2016 to someone like me who had recently got Into the Fire Emblem series recently got Into the Fire Emblem series recently got Into the Fire Emblem series and someone was like oh you know like Al and someone was like oh you know like Al and someone was like oh you know like Al and Celica like those characters that and Celica like those characters that and Celica like those characters that like whose weapons you see an Awakening like whose weapons you see an Awakening like whose weapons you see an Awakening and stuff oh you should play their game and stuff oh you should play their game and stuff oh you should play their game and I'll be like oh what system is it on and I'll be like oh what system is it on and I'll be like oh what system is it on oh it's on the NES and I look at the oh it's on the NES and I look at the oh it's on the NES and I look at the game it's dated it's old and it's just game it's dated it's old and it's just game it's dated it's old and it's just not very approachable because of the not very approachable because of the not very approachable because of the mechanics but it's also like not mechanics but it's also like not mechanics but it's also like not available I don't think that it was on available I don't think that it was on available I don't think that it was on the Wii Virtual Console I don't remember the Wii Virtual Console I don't remember the Wii Virtual Console I don't remember if it was on the wiii U virtual console if it was on the wiii U virtual console if it was on the wiii U virtual console and if it was like I it was just not a and if it was like I it was just not a and if it was like I it was just not a very appealing game so when this game very appealing game so when this game very appealing game so when this game was overhauled when all the characters was overhauled when all the characters was overhauled when all the characters were beautifully redesigned when all the were beautifully redesigned when all the were beautifully redesigned when all the maps were redesigned from the ground up maps were redesigned from the ground up maps were redesigned from the ground up and it was given this visual mechanical and it was given this visual mechanical and it was given this visual mechanical and just structural overhaul and put on and just structural overhaul and put on and just structural overhaul and put on a system that many people had which was a system that many people had which was a system that many people had which was the Nintendo 3DS that was a very the Nintendo 3DS that was a very the Nintendo 3DS that was a very beneficial remake and it was a very good beneficial remake and it was a very good beneficial remake and it was a very good idea for them to do that and well I idea for them to do that and well I idea for them to do that and well I don't remember this don't quote me on don't remember this don't quote me on don't remember this don't quote me on this I don't remember if giden even this I don't remember if giden even this I don't remember if giden even released in the west and that's why I am released in the west and that's why I am released in the west and that's why I am like forcefully like saying Nintendo like forcefully like saying Nintendo like forcefully like saying Nintendo give us that genealogy of the holy war
-
give us that genealogy of the holy war give us that genealogy of the holy war remake because it is a remake of Fire remake because it is a remake of Fire remake because it is a remake of Fire Emblem 4 on the Super Nintendo but I Emblem 4 on the Super Nintendo but I Emblem 4 on the Super Nintendo but I guarantee you so many people have not guarantee you so many people have not guarantee you so many people have not played it because it hasn't come to the played it because it hasn't come to the played it because it hasn't come to the west and of course you can play ROM west and of course you can play ROM west and of course you can play ROM hacks you can play like all those hacks you can play like all those hacks you can play like all those whatever those kinds of things but like whatever those kinds of things but like whatever those kinds of things but like I I I want to play it in a remake Style I I I want to play it in a remake Style I I I want to play it in a remake Style I want to play it like if it's it's like I want to play it like if it's it's like I want to play it like if it's it's like designed around like the concepts of designed around like the concepts of designed around like the concepts of three houses and the mechanics of three three houses and the mechanics of three three houses and the mechanics of three houses and engag and like given that houses and engag and like given that houses and engag and like given that visual overhaul on the switch give that visual overhaul on the switch give that visual overhaul on the switch give that to me because it won't even be a remake to me because it won't even be a remake to me because it won't even be a remake to many of us it'll be like a full on to many of us it'll be like a full on to many of us it'll be like a full on Fire Emblem new game and that's what I Fire Emblem new game and that's what I Fire Emblem new game and that's what I feel about games like Xeno gears and the feel about games like Xeno gears and the feel about games like Xeno gears and the Fire Emblem Fire Emblem Fire Emblem remakes giving people an opportunity to remakes giving people an opportunity to remakes giving people an opportunity to play those games that bumps up the kind play those games that bumps up the kind play those games that bumps up the kind of priority in my opinion like I always of priority in my opinion like I always of priority in my opinion like I always talk about that in some of my videos talk about that in some of my videos talk about that in some of my videos that's why I said like Xenoblade X needs that's why I said like Xenoblade X needs that's why I said like Xenoblade X needs to be a priority remaster over Twilight to be a priority remaster over Twilight to be a priority remaster over Twilight Princess and Wind Waker like I I just Princess and Wind Waker like I I just Princess and Wind Waker like I I just whenever I like speculate on these whenever I like speculate on these whenever I like speculate on these things I always see the pros and cons I things I always see the pros and cons I things I always see the pros and cons I always see like which game sold better always see like which game sold better always see like which game sold better which game needs the second sha which which game needs the second sha which which game needs the second sha which game needs the fixing which game is more game needs the fixing which game is more game needs the fixing which game is more like unfinished and all that stuff so like unfinished and all that stuff so like unfinished and all that stuff so then I look at some companies that are then I look at some companies that are then I look at some companies that are greenlighting certain remakes and doing greenlighting certain remakes and doing greenlighting certain remakes and doing them in very different ways like Final them in very different ways like Final them in very different ways like Final Fantasy 7 re trilogies and is one thing Fantasy 7 re trilogies and is one thing Fantasy 7 re trilogies and is one thing they're overhauling the story making

they're overhauling the story making they're overhauling the story making things different and incorporating a lot things different and incorporating a lot things different and incorporating a lot of things from the compilation which is of things from the compilation which is of things from the compilation which is very interesting very interesting very interesting because the compilation is very because the compilation is very because the compilation is very confusing and if they bring everything confusing and if they bring everything confusing and if they bring everything together make everything Cannon make together make everything Cannon make together make everything Cannon make everything make sense then I think it'll everything make sense then I think it'll everything make sense then I think it'll kind of be worth it but right now I'm kind of be worth it but right now I'm kind of be worth it but right now I'm kind of holding out my um verdict on kind of holding out my um verdict on kind of holding out my um verdict on that I guess until I see part three and that I guess until I see part three and that I guess until I see part three and see what part three does and I like see what part three does and I like see what part three does and I like finish that and look at the whole series finish that and look at the whole series finish that and look at the whole series and what it is done because right now I and what it is done because right now I and what it is done because right now I see a lot of the changes and a lot of see a lot of the changes and a lot of see a lot of the changes and a lot of the changes are nice it's giving some the changes are nice it's giving some the changes are nice it's giving some recontextualized kind of uh scenarios to recontextualized kind of uh scenarios to recontextualized kind of uh scenarios to some of the versions of Final Fantasy 7 some of the versions of Final Fantasy 7 some of the versions of Final Fantasy 7 but I hope it's all worth it in end but I hope it's all worth it in end but I hope it's all worth it in end another thing about the r Trilogy is another thing about the r Trilogy is another thing about the r Trilogy is them splitting it into three parts is a them splitting it into three parts is a them splitting it into three parts is a very interesting move and that also puts very interesting move and that also puts very interesting move and that also puts so much time energy resources and money so much time energy resources and money so much time energy resources and money and Manpower and development time into and Manpower and development time into and Manpower and development time into three massive games which if you look at three massive games which if you look at three massive games which if you look at it they are each essentially going to be it they are each essentially going to be it they are each essentially going to be fullon Standalone games but again it is fullon Standalone games but again it is fullon Standalone games but again it is within that same world world of Final within that same world world of Final within that same world world of Final Fantasy 7's Gia and midgar and all that Fantasy 7's Gia and midgar and all that Fantasy 7's Gia and midgar and all that stuff so I think about that and I think stuff so I think about that and I think stuff so I think about that and I think about like in my prioritization mind I'm about like in my prioritization mind I'm about like in my prioritization mind I'm like is that going to take time away
-
like is that going to take time away like is that going to take time away from other games that Square Enix can from other games that Square Enix can from other games that Square Enix can make like other remakes of games that make like other remakes of games that make like other remakes of games that would need it more like a Chrono Trigger would need it more like a Chrono Trigger would need it more like a Chrono Trigger or Xeno gears or even newer IPS and or Xeno gears or even newer IPS and or Xeno gears or even newer IPS and newer original games which they would newer original games which they would newer original games which they would want to make or which they could have want to make or which they could have want to make or which they could have made or which they could potentially made or which they could potentially made or which they could potentially still make but all their time and still make but all their time and still make but all their time and resources is dedicated to the Final resources is dedicated to the Final resources is dedicated to the Final Fantasy read Fantasy read Fantasy read Trilogy so it it's just some thoughts Trilogy so it it's just some thoughts Trilogy so it it's just some thoughts I've been having it's just some things I've been having it's just some things I've been having it's just some things I've been thinking about and I I want to I've been thinking about and I I want to I've been thinking about and I I want to hear what you guys think as well and hear what you guys think as well and hear what you guys think as well and another thing is like Final Fantasy 9 a another thing is like Final Fantasy 9 a another thing is like Final Fantasy 9 a lot of people have been talking about lot of people have been talking about lot of people have been talking about Final Fantasy 9 it's rumored and Final Fantasy 9 it's rumored and Final Fantasy 9 it's rumored and everyone is like oh it's basically everyone is like oh it's basically everyone is like oh it's basically confirmed because of the Nvidia leaks confirmed because of the Nvidia leaks confirmed because of the Nvidia leaks and all that but I'm also you're and all that but I'm also you're and all that but I'm also you're thinking like Final Fantasy 999 is thinking like Final Fantasy 999 is thinking like Final Fantasy 999 is available on all modern consoles so the available on all modern consoles so the available on all modern consoles so the availability of that game isn't the availability of that game isn't the availability of that game isn't the issue there that's not the issue with it issue there that's not the issue with it issue there that's not the issue with it so what is the like reason it's getting so what is the like reason it's getting so what is the like reason it's getting remade that that's something I want to remade that that's something I want to remade that that's something I want to know when this gets announced when we know when this gets announced when we know when this gets announced when we finally see it for the first time I want finally see it for the first time I want finally see it for the first time I want to really get an idea of what they're to really get an idea of what they're to really get an idea of what they're going for with this and why they chose going for with this and why they chose going for with this and why they chose to do it to do it to do it because a big part of what makes Final because a big part of what makes Final because a big part of what makes Final Fantasy 9 so great in my opinion and a Fantasy 9 so great in my opinion and a Fantasy 9 so great in my opinion and a lot of what makes these PS1 games that lot of what makes these PS1 games that lot of what makes these PS1 games that I've been playing so good is how they I've been playing so good is how they I've been playing so good is how they were I guess so to speak uh restricted
-
were I guess so to speak uh restricted were I guess so to speak uh restricted with the hardware they had which led to with the hardware they had which led to with the hardware they had which led to more creativity and IAL about this in more creativity and IAL about this in more creativity and IAL about this in previous videos about like my previous videos about like my previous videos about like my frustrations with Square Enix and of frustrations with Square Enix and of frustrations with Square Enix and of course my the dedicated long form review course my the dedicated long form review course my the dedicated long form review of Final Fantasy 9 as well but my of Final Fantasy 9 as well but my of Final Fantasy 9 as well but my thought is like if if this game gets a thought is like if if this game gets a thought is like if if this game gets a remake it's probably not going to have remake it's probably not going to have remake it's probably not going to have the pre-rendered background it's not the pre-rendered background it's not the pre-rendered background it's not going to have the character models going to have the character models going to have the character models looking the way that they did it's not looking the way that they did it's not looking the way that they did it's not going to have the same kind of world map going to have the same kind of world map going to have the same kind of world map that Final Fantasy 9 had so what are that Final Fantasy 9 had so what are that Final Fantasy 9 had so what are they going to do if it's going to be um they going to do if it's going to be um they going to do if it's going to be um more of a faithful remake that many more of a faithful remake that many more of a faithful remake that many people are making it out to be then what people are making it out to be then what people are making it out to be then what is the factor that is going to draw Us is the factor that is going to draw Us is the factor that is going to draw Us in other than maybe like newer music and in other than maybe like newer music and in other than maybe like newer music and new visuals and hopefully voice acting new visuals and hopefully voice acting new visuals and hopefully voice acting what's going to draw us into this new what's going to draw us into this new what's going to draw us into this new Final Fantasy 9 remake that is something Final Fantasy 9 remake that is something Final Fantasy 9 remake that is something that is exclusive to the Remake which that is exclusive to the Remake which that is exclusive to the Remake which the original couldn't do because I the original couldn't do because I the original couldn't do because I played the original with the muui mod played the original with the muui mod played the original with the muui mod and it was a really great visual and it was a really great visual and it was a really great visual experience and now like the mod has like experience and now like the mod has like experience and now like the mod has like significantly like gotten a massively significantly like gotten a massively significantly like gotten a massively major upgrade as well so but it still major upgrade as well so but it still major upgrade as well so but it still retains that essence of the PlayStation retains that essence of the PlayStation retains that essence of the PlayStation 1 Final Fantasy 9 so I'm wondering like 1 Final Fantasy 9 so I'm wondering like 1 Final Fantasy 9 so I'm wondering like what is this remake going to do that the what is this remake going to do that the what is this remake going to do that the mcui mod won't and how is it going to mcui mod won't and how is it going to mcui mod won't and how is it going to add to my experience with Final Fantasy
-
add to my experience with Final Fantasy add to my experience with Final Fantasy 9 and of course there's also the rumors 9 and of course there's also the rumors 9 and of course there's also the rumors of Final Fantasy Tactics I'm interested of Final Fantasy Tactics I'm interested of Final Fantasy Tactics I'm interested in that because as of now we don't have in that because as of now we don't have in that because as of now we don't have like a modern remaster or re-release of like a modern remaster or re-release of like a modern remaster or re-release of Final Fantasy Tactics so that puts the Final Fantasy Tactics so that puts the Final Fantasy Tactics so that puts the priority of that a little bit higher priority of that a little bit higher priority of that a little bit higher than Final Fantasy 9 for me because on than Final Fantasy 9 for me because on than Final Fantasy 9 for me because on like PS5 or switch or steam or any of like PS5 or switch or steam or any of like PS5 or switch or steam or any of these modern consoles you can't like buy these modern consoles you can't like buy these modern consoles you can't like buy Final Fantasy Tactics on a digital Final Fantasy Tactics on a digital Final Fantasy Tactics on a digital storefront so it would be nice to we get storefront so it would be nice to we get storefront so it would be nice to we get a remaster or a re-release but at this a remaster or a re-release but at this a remaster or a re-release but at this point with them waiting so long I would point with them waiting so long I would point with them waiting so long I would be interested to see what they do with a be interested to see what they do with a be interested to see what they do with a remake of it cuz some Square Enix remake of it cuz some Square Enix remake of it cuz some Square Enix remakes have been really hitting it out remakes have been really hitting it out remakes have been really hitting it out of the park recently some more than of the park recently some more than of the park recently some more than others like particularly I'm very others like particularly I'm very others like particularly I'm very impressed with how Star Ocean 2 did impressed with how Star Ocean 2 did impressed with how Star Ocean 2 did their remake and now uh recently their remake and now uh recently their remake and now uh recently Romancing Saga 2 got a remake and that Romancing Saga 2 got a remake and that Romancing Saga 2 got a remake and that looks really good both of those games I looks really good both of those games I looks really good both of those games I definitely have to try them out but I definitely have to try them out but I definitely have to try them out but I really hope that if Final Fantasy really hope that if Final Fantasy really hope that if Final Fantasy Tactics gets a remake I hope it gets a Tactics gets a remake I hope it gets a Tactics gets a remake I hope it gets a whole new coat of paint and it sees a whole new coat of paint and it sees a whole new coat of paint and it sees a whole new audience because that that's whole new audience because that that's whole new audience because that that's one game that really could get a nice one game that really could get a nice one game that really could get a nice popularity boost with a potential remake popularity boost with a potential remake popularity boost with a potential remake so that's just my offthe cuff so that's just my offthe cuff so that's just my offthe cuff random random random like mind dump of thoughts when it comes like mind dump of thoughts when it comes like mind dump of thoughts when it comes to remakes and to remakes and to remakes and remasters I I've just been seeing a lot remasters I I've just been seeing a lot remasters I I've just been seeing a lot of
