They need to have some kind of remake to do the story justice. IMO it's a slow game with truly one of the worse examples of gameplay in a JRPG, but the music, story, and artstyle are all great.

From who? Who is going to remake it? Square Enix without the people that left? Monolith Soft that has no control over it and belongs to Nintendo?

It won't happen.

Anyway, ontopic: I remember this game so well. It was one of the first games I imported because I just had to play it. Giant mechs, c'mon.

I would not say with that much confidence that it "won't happen". All one needs is a few key people who can be acquired for the project, the music can be reused, the story already written, the anime cutscenes can be made by any good studio. It's only the gameplay that needs a complete rebuild IMO.

It only takes someone who wants to do it, that is it. The problem is, mid-tier games aren't that big these days at all.
