FF7 rebirth is sooo good. I can't imagine how mindblowing it would have been had they released the remake in two parts and cut some of the fat off Remake but they have a chance to do a directors cut with the three games packaged into one and remove all the slow parts of Remake and make possibly one of the best games of all time. They released a patch for Remake recently to allow players to speed things up so they are thinking in the right direction. I'm a bit disappointed that they choose to spread the games thin when they could easily have made a more focused Remake of the whole of FF7, I hope other studios don't" get the idea to copy them and make their own remakes into episodic releases.
Still, it's great to have Rebirth. They fixed every issue I had with Remake asides from multiple difficulty options that don't feel tuned correctly but that's me, I prefer games with fixed difficulty cause you don't run into the problem of it getting to easy or hard out of nowhere.
