The first time I played 9 I thought graphics couldn't get better and even today without the improvements I still find it pretty while 7 even on the enhanced I can't stop thinking it is ugly. And perhaps I played to little (stopped after leaving Midgard) so maybe the story up until that moment wasn't as good and the level up system wasn't much of my liking as well.

Yeah, you basically just played the prologue.  It does open up and get much better.  However, like you said, the graphics have not aged well at all.  People loved the game and the story but hated the graphics as it aged which is why everybody was clamoring for square to remake it...they could have just updated the graphics and added in some voice acting and it wouldn’t have been nearly as controversial...

I am sure they will end up making more money this way though... especially with it being split into multiple  parts... I would have loved and updated version like I described though... oh wells...

I can say that I liked FFVIIR and now I would mind if FFIX was remade the same way. But yep I wouldn't mind if they just upped the graphics while keeping gameplay and story the same.

I think that for VIII and IX they may do a simpler remake with the graphics not being top notch (well, even if SE tries to make their games the prettier they can for the numbered FFs), but for VII that is their most iconic game I would expect them to not make it the most incredible they could think even if by transforming a 5h section in 30h.
