I honestly stopped caring about graphics in the PS2 era. Some AA and dynamic lighting is nice, but those are quick and easy to administer. Besides, they say it as though other (probably lower budget too) developers have been able to do this. It's not an FPS, textures don't need to be THAT high quality, since you're seldom going to get a closeup of them anyway. I mean for fuck's sake, if Half Life 2 looks amazing in HD and it was developed a gen ago, WHY IS THIS SO HARD?
For the record, I have no interest in an FF7 remake; I don't buy the same video game twice. I WOULD however, like to see japan go back in that direction and try to get away from the emo cutesy character design crap a little bit. I mean, remember Goku? Remember Gundam Wing? More importantly, remember Barett??? He was Mr. T with a giant minigun for an arm, I mean how cool is that?!

So now I have to ask Sqeenix, what the fuck I'm looking at right now
Seriously, why is THIS inherently the manliest character in the game?
