>the original still exist stop complaining >it's good because it's different >the original wasn't that great, this is an improvement >this plot rendition keeps us guessing, therefore it's superior
Okay so one fucking question: why make a remake in the first fucking place? If you honestly didn't want a ~1:1 remake and you think plot revisions, that completely change the atmosphere and theming of the original, is good...then why not make an original ip? It makes no fucking sense
Face it, you fucking retarded zoomers, you're riding on the coat tails of the original but living in denial. If you've EVER complained about any sjw rewriting comic book characters to be gay, different, etc., or ANY MEDIUM doing something similar, you're a fucking hypocrite. People waited two decades for a remake of FINAL FANTASY 7, NOT FINAL FANTASY 16 WITH A FF7 COAT OF PAINT.
>why not make an original ip? Revitalization of an older product through recognition of a new one. People are going to buy FF7 now that there's talk about it again, whether it's new to them or nostalgic. So now SE is selling two games.

So cowardice, greed, and consumer retardation. Got it.
Are you retarded. He wasn't implying that was your point
Tyler Carter
You're right, he didn't imply it. He said it. That's how replies work. That's how words work.
Nathaniel Taylor
>he said that is what I meant Okay, you're a full blown retard. Also, I, OP, was not asking literally "why do companies make remakes in general" you fucking mongoloid.
You honestly think you're clever but in reality you're crippled too high for crutches
Cameron Harris
Very few people will actually buy the original game because there's now a new version. "Why do that when you got FFVII but with better graphics and modern gameplay?"
>u dum! x3 >no argument against anything i said Maybe words aren't your strong suit.
>Very few people will actually buy the original game But they'll still be making money off of it because they're not needing to market it or redistribute it. >Why do that when you got FFVII but with better graphics and modern gameplay? Also will be said: >i remember that game, it's been years since i played it. maybe i'll play it again for old time's sake or >what's all the hype around this one?
Nathan Lee
I'm not excited for this game but people expected a remake from from when square wasnt as shit. Instead they got kingdom hearts esque writing.

Read the entire post, your fucking retard.
>if you didn't want a 1:1 remake and you wanted revisions that change the entire atmosphere and theming of the original, why ask for a remake
It's a specific question, not a general one
Luis Rogers
>No? Literacy matters. The hypocrisy is astounding. He's making a value statement on the behavior of the people you were talking about.
Ryder Evans
>It's a specific question Looks like you were given a pretty specific answer, too.
Caleb Ortiz
>tfw you said 15 years ago KH should have been it's own story but Nomura was too much of a bitch so he relied on Disney nostalgia
No it wasn't. He thought I was asking why make remakes in general.
Are all zoomers this fucking retarded?
Carter Baker
You give people's mental capacity and curiosity far too much credit. Most people don't put effort into thinking about video games, and "this game is called Final Fantasy 7" is unfortunately at the bottom of the brain power scale.
Owen Hughes
>why make a remake in the first fucking place? because they can
Jace Parker
Congratulations, you've discovered the remake was targeted towards compilation zoomers that couldn't tolerate the original game. This is why they shill the fuck out of it by shitting on FFVII. This is why the combat and the writing is more like KH. This is why they're pandering to them with all the retarded Zack and Sephiroth fanservice and they're all lapping it up even if the story suffers.
Christian Moore
Even my normie consoomer friend who unironically like XV and XIII is pissed about the changes. And she only just finished the Aerith and Reno church scene, which is only the tip of the iceberg.
>why make a remake in the first fucking place? Consoomers who only need to see the brand to buy.
Grayson Turner
Can someone post the Nomura pic of an interview where he says Remake will please the fans or something like that? Similar to this one. I need it for a video.
It's scummy as hell from the company's end who taps into the perceived value of the franchise and title without paying the due respects to it, and is a shitty practice from the people who buy it, too, since they're actively rewarding a company for screwing over its fanbase to cater to them, who were outside of it.
Gavin Butler
The bigger issue is people are aware of this and just don't give a shit
Gabriel Wilson
This worries me. It's such a blatant bait-and-switch that you'd think more people would be holding them accountable instead of rewarding them.
