Kas - you are way over-estimating graphics. They have the engine already and who says it needs to be up to par with ff13? Give it to the B or C team. Any = type of upgrade to the boxes and diamond shapes would be fine.

Ok, then explain why costs have doubled to tripled this generation.  The great bulk of that is infact graphics.

Take GT5... it takes 6 months of man hours to model 1 car... vs much much less for other GT games.  I believe it was... a month previously?

Ifyou think Disgea tripled in cost you sir are ignorant.

So... your suggesting that the FF7 remake should be FF7 with slightly better colors... and then that's it?

I mean, I love NIS strategy games... but they use PS1 level graphics.

You CAN make a game cheaper... but not one that Final Fantasy fans will accept.

FF7 WILL need to look at good as 13 if not better.

No... FF7 would not need FF13 graphics. You are insane to think that. It just needs to look as good as the average HD game.. if even that.

That's not what the actual Square developers have been saying.  Everything they've said about FF7 development is they'd want their top team on it and they'd want to "do it right."

Additionally... are you kidding me?  On what system has there ever been a game released, then the remake looked WORSE then the mainline game?

You'd get killed by the critics and fans.

People would be receptive of a FF7 remake that looks like Star Ocean 4?
