Good. Despite my many criticisms it is my favorite JRPG of all time. I'm very critical of games in general, but FF7 remake did set a new bar in many aspects. To be fair I never played the original (and probably missed out on many other good JRPGs), but I really see why so many people cared about this game's story so much. It's truly iconic in a way that other FF games never resonated with me at the same level. Given similar praise to FF6 (one of the few other FF games I never played), I hope after this is complete they consider remaking that in a similar manner.
It also makes me wish Nintendo actually gave the Pokemon IP to a competent dev who could remake Gen 1 or 2 in a truly remade way. As much as people like the Go remakes on Switch, I grew up with those games and they aren't even close to something that would get me to play them out of nostalgia. I want the 2D world turned into a 3D world as this game accomplished, more integration with the original anime series (as yellow did to a very small extent), and graphics that are actually utilizing modern tech. The Go games just didn't accomplish that in any way for me. I really wish the Pokemon fanbase had similar standards and voiced these desires the same way the FF7 fanbase has for years. Without the dedication of players this remake never would have happened so I have to give major thanks to the original fanbase.
