That's exactly what I'm talking about, people are immediately assuming the worst, who in the world is talking about making it like Skyrim? And the remake does not need to have the exact same gameplay to feel like FF7 because FF games are not like FF games because of one set specific type of gameplay, if that was the case then FF combat wouldn't have been undergoing changes for ages, which has always been pretty much accepted up until FF XIII.

The game doesn't come out until 2017 at best and Final Fantasy on console in 2017 does not have to be 2 groups standing in front of each other and taking turns hitting each other until one group is dead and if SE are looking to modernize that, then I say let them take a shot at it.

But instead of keeping an open mind you have people saying things like "It's going to have different combat? Then I'm not going to buy it. Fuck you SE for ruining this" without knowing literally anything about how this is going to be changed and that is mindboggling to me.

Okay, Skyrim was an extreme exageration. Let's change that shall we and say Kingdom Hearts (and in turn FF15), people mention ARPG, there is no finer ARPG made buy the Japanese in my view. You know, Kingdom Hearts is bloody great, Disney characters running around fighting along side anime like characters. Brilliant. Free flowing action combat is great in it but that's Kingdom Hearts gameplay. People are actually saying they would prefer if FF7 was more like this but I'm saying why? You have Kingdom Hearts (and FF15) for that. 

I am open minded but not in a bloody remake. What's the point of remaking it if it's not got the same gameplay? the essential part of games. FF15 is coming out with it's flashy new ARPG style, I'm willing to buy that and give it a shot (because of KH of all things) but the idea of FF7 remake not having the same basic gameplay is odd. 

Updating the game for the modern market, remaking something has never strictly been about just making it look new and shiny.

Also Nomura hasn't even said ARPG, that's again just what people jumped to without any information on how things will actually change.
