I think it's just because of who you're asking. If you're asking people who love FF VIII, chances are they played it at the time and so are more accepting of playing it today. So a remake is neither here nor there, at least personally. I'd buy it and probably enjoy it if it came out, but I'm more than happy to play the original game instead. I'd rather Square Enix spent the time making modern Final Fantasy games feel more like FF VIII, rather than remaking it. @ the reply before, perhaps respect was the wrong word. I didn't mean to imply they'd be disrespecting it by remaking it, just that a lot of the charm comes from when it was made, and a big modern-day super-crystal-tools-engine hyped up FF VIII just isn't what I want to see. |
It doesn't have to be hyped up though, it doesn't even have to be crystal tools, it could just be FFX-quality. Even that would be an improvement.
FFI and FFIV are games that I find they don't age badly. I can't say the same about FFVIII.
About SE resources, etc. read my reply to badge, SE has always made remakes since the PSX era (FF Origins, Chronicles, etc. etc.)
