I think it will only be 3 parts, but there might be spin offs and DLC further down the line. Financially speaking I don't think its a good idea to have too many parts, a percentage of people don't finish the first part and will not bother with the second part; so on and so forth the more parts you add. As you add more episodes you just keep adding more barriers to entry where people who haven't played the previous parts will never get into it. So personally I think it will only be 3 parts. The second part I think will be from where you leave Midgar to the City of the Ancients, thats of course if they keep most of the events in line with things from the original.

I know a lot of people use the argument that the beginning part of Midgar is only a small part of the game, but I feel differently about that. After you leave Midgar a lot of your time is spent travelling between places on the map. Dungeon's like the Mythril Cave or Mt Nibel were point A to point B excercises, they features little to no story content. Where as in Midgar there was a lot of time spent progressing the story.

I think they should try to make the world semi-open; so there is nothing as massive as The Witcher, but perhaps something a bit more like FF12. The second game in a series tends to be the best game, so I have high hopes they nail the next game and make it well balanced with a reasonably sized semi-open world.
