Well, you're in for the shock of your life if you think this "remake" is going to take you down the same overall path as the OG game.  There's a reason people are talking about KH's BS being put into the game.  And because of that BS, it is more like a sequel that's trying to reboot the story of the OG game, a la Genisys.

Then this game isn't a remake, either.

And sure, the main plot points stay the same.  Well, until they don't and the whole thing takes a nosedive off the OG FF7 rails and changes EVERYTHING in a big way.  In a very bad way.

I'm not expecting to go through the same path. If I were expecting it I wouldn't buy any of the FF7R games as SE said over 2 years ago that things are going to be different.

No, what SE said is that this will be a "very faithful," but expanded remake.  They lied.  This is a reboot, using the name remake to sucker people into buying the game because they were expecting something similar to the OG game's plot.  SE has now officially destroyed those expectations with the last parts of this game and can go in whatever direction they want with the story.  Again, this is a reboot, not remake.  How anyone can make excuses for their blatant false advertising is beyond me.
