Final Fantasy VII Remake Would Take Too Long to Develop

(cough) bullcrap (cough)

Indeed, that's just a horrible excuse. And if it would take so much time, then why not put off development on 14, I'm sure people can wait to play that, especially if a remake of 7 was the reason for it.

they are almost done with 14 anyways. it's gonna be like ff12. it ought to be out within the next 2 years i think.

personally i don't think it would take that long if they did it this way: make it with the best ps2 graphics like god of war. we just want a ff7 with a graphics upgrade. hell a team of fans who do modding could probably do this in about 1-2 years. the cut scenes would of course have to be ps3 graphics, but the game would primarily be like a homage of fff7. for nostalgia purposes. the only challenge would be how to incorperate the funny cutscenes with more realism. i mean...realistic graphics make games seem more serious and that might ruin the comic mischef factor if done wrong...

Yeah, they should just tell you guys "No, we're not making a fucking FFVII remake PERIOD. So shut the fuck up!" Because evidently them trying to explain their reasoning for not making it is like explaining astrophysics to earthworms.

LOL

Which is worse; an astrophysicist wasting his time trying to explain astrophysics to earthworms or earthworms attending a conference attempting to understand it?

Yes, I wish they would just come up and say STFU about it.

Maybe instead of bitching about remakes, how about all the FF7 fans could just go and play the fucking original again? I mean, it's already the best game of all time, right?

AGREED! I'm not one of those that's crying about the remake (in fact, I never finished FF7 and *shame* played the PC version) - but with the way they keep being elusive about it is just silly. It's like they love to taunt the fans, like they're cats chasing a string.

It is just them making excuses. 3 or 4 times as long development as FF13 is just a load of crap. That's like a developer saying, "Wow, you know, Modern Warfare 2 is a great FPS, and we'd love to make one like it, but to make a modern day FPS would just take SOOOOOOOOOOO long..."

I'm sorry, but I think Bioware and Bethesda put more work into their RPGs than anything Final Fantasy has (not counting graphics, I'm not a graphics whore I prefer gameplay any day). The extent of testing those 2 developers have to put into their game to make it so your choices "work" instead of just making a linear story is a lot more work in my opinion.

I like to think They are making it and will discreetly put it in shops and wait for all the adverticing to come from that

(If a game this wanted was realeased without anybody knowing it would cause a HUGE stir)

It probaly won't happen but whatever

Let's compromise: don't animate it to the level of 13, but maybe 10? Just a little bit more than what it is. That would be nice. Or sell the rights to another company so they can remake it.

but then another comany would own part of ff 7 and then could make thier own ff stuff from them owning ff 7
