I don't think anyone trusted the devs actually, except some fanboys.
Most people here didn't buy 1.0 at all and the Final Fantasy series was long in decline.

The reason I bought 2.0 is it looked way better right from initial screenshots. It was obvious they made a totally different game. I was sold on the game because of how Dragoon looked. Here are some early screenshots for fun.



And there was a lot more positive buzz. You couldn't even find the game in Japan on launch.
