I don't care about graphics or other technical aspects too much. I at least expect some new gameplay, because if I'm just doing the same I did 20 years ago just with new graphics, I will get bored. I still know everything that happened in that game (god knows how many times I played it) and I want to be surprised every now and then. I want new enemies, I want new levels and yes, I also want a battle system that feels fresh and a system that challenges me. It's not like I want it to change from the ground up, but new ideas here and there would be very welcomed. If it's exactly the same, I will know from the frist second what to do with any enemy, with any boss, even with those ultima weapon guys. To me, that would be very disappointing. What would I have to look forward to?  

I just don't get people who want to play the same game again. I mean, they can already do that! What do shinier graphics or 3rd person looks or whatever change? Absolutely nothing! You won't remember the game the way it looks anyway. It just doesn't make sense to me. But I'll guess we'll have to agree to disagree here. ^^

Strongly disagree. There's a reason for remasters (beyond making money). People loved the REmake for a reason. Now, Square could easily put in multiple difficuly settings if they wanted, or tweak the game so it isn't "boring" or "easy." (Why are people looking forward to a remake of a game they consider boring and easy again?) Change how the game plays fundamentally and they should just name it something new, like "Final Fantasy 7: Cloud's Button Basher."

I can understand a lot of that but the turn-based gameplay is the game. All those things, new enemies, new levels etc, can be in it but changing the basic gameplay removes the very basis of what the 'game' is based on. Each iteration of FF had the same basic gameplay, a characters taking turns in combat, even FF12 and 13 had that even if one removed the enclosed encounters and the other remove control of other party members. An FF game to me is a turn based RPG, not KH.

Indeed, disagree to disagree. I'd like a FF game to have FF gameplay, you seem not to want that.

Oh, so that's how the issue is dealt with... Good to know that effort isn't lost.

On the Steam version, there's a trophy when you unlock her final limit break. It's about a 45-60 minute grind if you know how the limit break unlocking works.

Ye her final limit break is also absurdly OP, Square went fuck it its not liek itll be around for long so here have Great Gospel the thing that fully heals your party, cures all status afflictions and make you imortal for a handfull of turns. I doubt the limit system will be anything like it was, it was way too easy to game the system and learn the more powerfull limits super quickly.

If I remeber correctly the ppl outside your party only got a fraction of the XP on FFVII not all of it, I might be wrong tough, its been awhile.

I just looked it up, they get half, I think (sources aren't great), so you are right. I remember playing when free roaming and my main characters were like 80 something and my party of non-used ones were like 70 or something, if I wanted to I could put them in my team and they'd still do okay (just without limits as for that you need to use them). They were fine the first form battle with Sephy when you split into 3 parties. At least it's not like FF12, where the only characters that level are those in the party meaning in later stages of the game if you start losing team members, bringing in the reserves is pointless. Grind was too much in FF12 to bother leveling everyone.

There was a way to let FF XII auto playing to get lvs hehe, I dont remember exactly how but it was the way I used to get everyone to 90 after I had cleared everythign else and only Yiazmat was left hehe.
