Every one is mad because they’re greedily milking reruns and I’m just laughing because they clean skipped over FF8.

They know you can't improve on a master piece.

Which is my favorite one. I never liked 7, it never grabbed me. But I loved 8.

Which is why they won't do it. This is about easy money, not revisiting games that aged poorly and / or failed to live up to their potential when they originally came out to make a better and more modern experience while retaining the spirit of originals.
