But it wasn't really perfectly fine. The story was, but it was held back by technology to do anything great with the combat. It's hard to muster up the strength to even pick up the game again knowing that I'd have to go through 1,000s of repetitive battles and getting roped into it every few seconds. Hardly anyone from this generation would tolerate it. I'm pretty sure most people playing this version wont miss it.

Some more snippets of info from this news Twitter:

1) You'll have three party members, two of which are Cloud and Barrett. You'll have free reign to switch between them at any time, or not at all.

2) It'll be using a variation of the ATB system, leaning more towards action combat, ala Crisis Core. Tetsuya Nomura mentioned the Dissidia FINAL FANTASY games as a primary influence.

3) A number of external studios are assisting on development, including CyberConnect2, the studio behind the NARUTO Ultimate Ninja series of fighting games.

4) Due to the scope of the game, it won't be released as a complete package. Testuya Nomura has decided to go for an episodic format so he won't have to compromise on content and release what he calls an "abridged version."

5) And, of course, that oh so popular cross dressing scene will be in the remake.

There's probably a lot of other stuff, too. But as the interview this info is being pulled from was conducted by Japanese news outlet Dengeki Online, it has only been translated in parts so far. Here's the source if you're so inclined.

... I don't know how to feel about that. I guess I'm disappointed. I'd want to play the whole game through like before. I can see some people just playing the same episode over and over while waiting who knows how long for the next. And of course when they finish... they'll put all episodes on to one disk, like the walking dead or sam and max. By then people will already have paid what's probably over $60 for what the game usually costs.

What the hell are they talking about? The base game is already three gens old - any aesthetic improvement they make over it will already be miles above it by comparison. More to the point, if they can make a game of that scope on the fucking PS1 then I'm not sure how this is supposed to be an excuse. Frankly this strikes me more as Squeenix overbudgeting a game yet again and trying to make it look like they're going above and beyond the usual remake fare so they can charge extortionate amounts of money to make their costs back.

If you'll recall: the original game was released on three discs. It was a big fucking game and there just wasn't enough space on one disc for all that game.

They also released all the discs at once instead of one at a time and charging separately for them. =I

It's also not like they can't fit a game like that onto a single blu-ray either. I could count like 5 recent games to memory that have done so - some with even less space to work with.

I bet fans would be pissed to wait so long for it... FF15 took like almost a decade or more? Maybe it is for the best, even if they have an idea of assets, story, music, script ready.... well now I don't know.

If they released the game at full price each chapter, that would be low. If they released it at a lower price for each chapter, that won't be so bad.

I like it when people use the word "gay" in any context other than a homosexual one - it only proves that they have the maturity of a five year old, as if their obsession with shooters didn't already do a good job of pointing that out. It's also pretty amusing that he pointed out Skyrim considering the fact that, y'know, it's set in the bloody medival era and doesn't even have muskets, let alone generic modern firearms.

But just for fun, let's play around with his logic a bit.

game - gun = gay
game + gun = -gay
game + gun + Arem = ???

Not sure if that's good or bad.
