Anyone who says that a remake doesn't need to be mostly the same, well what about all the past FF remakes (as mentioned above, plus 10 and 12) The Windwaker remake, Zelda: OOT remake, Majoras mask remake, TMNT: Turtles in Time remake, Resident Evil (original) remake, and many many more? These are faithful to the originals for the most part. Mostly better graphics and music, right? That's what us nostalgic, original fans mostly want. The newer generations mostly want newer games, not remakes. Nomura is ignorant if he makes a 75% or more different game than the original. It will deserve to fail. If he changes it too much, I likely won't buy it, and hopefully many others won't either. 

Resident Evil Remake HD was very different from the original. It had rooms, puzzles and items that didn't exist in the original. Zombies didn't come back to life if you didn't burn their corpse before. You couldn't get zombies off you with a tazer or knife before. Etc.
Your "mostly the same" criteria is a very vague description. There's no one specific formula that all remakes follow.
As for "Mostly better graphics and music, right? That's what us nostalgic, original fans mostly want.", a Remaster falls under that description as well.
And that's not what all nostalgic fans want.

You can't seriously compare FF7R to DMC. This game will have the same general story, characters, towns, monsters, music, etc, as the original. That was not the case for DMC at all.

As for me, I like hearing that we'll get to explore Midgar a lot more thoroughly, and learn more aboutt characters like Biggs, Wedge and Jesse.

Are you sure there will be the same general story, music, towns, etc? It's not sounding like it. I did like the Midgar beginning quite a bit though. That could turn out well.
