Two things changed.  1) Sakaguchi left (the FF creator), and 2) Squaresoft became Square-Enix.  I believe development on FF X started before either of these things happened which is why it is such a good game.  The games haven't been the same since.  I even like, to varying degrees, some of the FF games that came later, but they definitely aren't the same, and there is no going back.  All I can say is that I haven't played the Lost Odyssey yet, so I still have that to look forward to, but after that I won't be seeing the old FF magic anymore.

Also, just want to say that this is the best review I've seen so far of FF7 Remake.

I was so tempted to click on the dunkview when I first saw it, but I'm still stuck in lockdown limbo awaiting my pre-order, and it's been almost a week since I emailed EB Games for no response.

Could you share the general sentiments of what he says, and how serious he is? Some of his dunkviews are more sarcastic than not, and some (usually bigger titles) are practically dead-serious the entire way.

He mostly makes fun of the game, but this is what he does with every game.  Short version is he thinks the combat and boss fights are great, but all of the new story and character stuff is terrible.
