Well, they already had the assets made for it, as shown by the tech demo. But, over the last 9 years, instead of making the one game that everyone constantly begs for, funnels rumors for, etc. they make a bunch of games we don't want. Nobody asked for a FFX remaster. Nobody asked for a FFXII remaster. After the debacle of FFXIII, nobody asked for XIII-2 or Lightning Returns. How hard would it really be to redo VII? The story is already in place, the battle system is in place, etc. They'd just have to build the character models and environments. Is that really that hard? Harder than making a new freakin game engine for a game that's 8 years into development hell (Final Fantasy Versu....I mean Final Fantasy XV)?

I'm gonna guess really hard. Not for technical issues mind you, but because some parts of the game would not translate well to a FFXIII-like visual. At all. Case in point: cross-dressing Cloud.
It's a lose-lose situation at this point. If they do it, they'll have to change it, causing a riot on the, frankly, rather sensitive/annoying/fractured FF fanbase. If they keep it untouched, some parts will just make me cringe to death.

I say, let you cringe, then. I read somewhere, recently, that when Nintendo remade Ocarina of Time (I think it was that one) for the 3DS (maybe it was some completely different game, don't remember, but that's irrelevant to the point I'm about to make), they left in all the glitches, mistakes, dialogue etc. from the original to make sure not to "take away from the original experience" or something of that nature, and then the game turned out to be a critical and commercial success.
