2017 would be awesome but with them not even being done with FFXV after all these years and then barely starting on KH3, that seems awfully early

To be honest the remake should be alot faster than an original game for obvious reasons.

For one, FF XV is an open world game. FF VII is a location based game with an overworld. The turn based battle system is already there (they better not fuck with it too much). The plot is there, yes they are going to add some stuff and change a few things, but its all there.

The dev cycle could be fairly quick if they go with pre-rendered backgrounds in order to maintain the feel of the original (which I honestly hope they do). If this game takes rediculously long to make its not FF VII anymore, its a game based on FF VII...

I think very differently. I think pre-rendered background became unacceptable in ps2 era already, and I even think cgi cutscenes are an offense in ps3/xbox 360 era. Pre-rendered background and cgi were a away to overcome technical limitations, with the processing power in current consoles it would be just lazy, its unacceptable. Like metal gear solid since ps1 has everything running in real time, and it always did great at that.
