It's for real!!!

Well, I am quite sceptical...

Whilst I really am happy about the improved graphics and tunes, I think I might really miss the unique blocky style that really contributed to the amtosphere of the game.

I fear a epileptical light show like advent children, hope they really keep the feeling of the source material...

And while i am excited like anyone else, a foul feeling of "let´s squeeze it ´til its dry" comes up...

but that´s truly not a SE mistake, the whole gaming-industry seems to dried up, big studios just HD-remastering their old cash-cows or bringing "new and innovative" games which feel like a old cash-cow with a new skin...

Hopefully it's only me but when I see that trailer I can't help but imagine FFVII Remake is going to be action based not turn

While loved by fans, the Turn-Based Battle Systems are early FF´s most downside.

I have to argue over that every time with my girlfriend or other gaming friends.
"how can you play this... it´s just hit a button and wait what he does, you do nothing, there is no skill in this, blah blah"

What really pushed ME of the FF-Train, it was the "every-time-re-invention" of a turn based system, morphing slowly to action based gameplay in every release...

Final Fantasy 13 being the end of that Era, and being reached it´s very bottom at lightning returns, which would be better of with DMC Gameplay than this foul hybrid with some "turn-based" touch...

Honestly I can see FFXIII Battle system being similar to what we get in the Remake (Without the paradigm shifting)

Well, I expect something like in FF-XV...

And when i see gameplay material of XV... i am asking myself "where is the Final Fantasy part"...

I hope it isn't, battle like that bores me. I'd rather have something more on par with XIIIs turn based combat than that. I'm crossing my fingers that they will keep the battle system as it was just maybe speed it up a bit.

I'm with you.
Developing FFVII with FFXV's combat system would be a very poor move- the system hasn't really been fully shown to the public, they have NO idea how it will be received....
And besides, you REALLY want a system that limits you to playing just one character????

No thanks, I'll take my traditional turn based combat please :3 I'm by no means hyped for this remake, it seems unnecessary. I will still play it though- and I wish to be able to control Tifa and Cid's actions as well as Cloud's.

The people who love I mean really love FFVII don't love it for the game play persay its more of the story I never played it before and I can't drag my self to play a turn based game unless its Pokemon so I would love it if it was action based.

Look at the facts people rpgs have evolved from turn based to action and FFXV looks like it's doing a good job of it.

The one problem with remakes is its hard I think to absolutely please all of the people who played the original so I think it targets more of the people who have never played it before which is fine because it gives people like me the chance to play a game like FFVII as the current generation of rpgs I love.

Major buzzkill...advent children was actually not a light show if you paid any attention, it was actually quite drab and dull.
The only "light shows" i can think of were megaflare, kadajas magic, his soul when it was relinquished and that's it really. And they are such small things.

What do you mean "dried up", this is not the companies fault its the consumer. Sony is innovating in their department, microsoft is continuing to release sequels because it works for them, nintendo...yeah they're there still...and i don't see anything wrong with remakes at all. It's a good filler for companies while they work on their major titles, and it gives consumers a chance to play all those great titles that were before their generation.

PLEASE KEEP ANYTHING RELATED TO FINAL FANTASY 13 AWAY FROM FFVII!. That combat system was absolutely shocking, if anything they should be taking notes from bravely default.

Oh don't misunderstand! I don't want XIIIs combat, I want to be able to control all the characters again! I just used that as an example of speedier turn based combat for those who complain VIIs old combat system was too slow. I'd be happy if they left it the same altogether personally. While some people argue it was boring at that speed, I liked the strategy involved. If you used the wrong moves it could be the death of your party.
