Not really. The original got an 83 meta, and this is just a straight remaster afaik, not a remake, and remasters tend to review a few points lower than the original game as they add little new gameplay wise and their systems often feel dated compared to newer games. Square's other remasters like FF10/10-2, FF12, and Chrono Cross also reviewed lower than the originals.
I was already skipping it in protest of them taking Sony hat money for the main FF7 Remake games and FF16, and I'm still skipping it now. Don't want your leftovers Square, I want a seat at the table during the actual feast. Might play it if Xbox ever pays to put it into Gamepass, or buy it when it is bargain bin priced in a sale years from now.
