Other than the derpiness of some of the early parts of the game, there's still a few other parts that need some love too, like when the party encountered a giant serpent monster bloodied and hung up on a tree, or when Cloud loses his mind and ends up in a wheelchair, swaying his head around. And several other emotional moments the game boasted.

I'm actually very excited to see what Squeenix will come up with in this remake, but I'm not so giddy that I'm willing to get my hopes too high. There have just been too many issues with newer games these days where you didn't feel much from the experience overall other than what you feel when playing something with an arcade vibe.

I think I beat FF7 an exact three or five times before I moved on to the original Final Fantasy Tactics (which spawned my true most favorite FFs and world themes in the whole series), but I'm still hoping that they're able to capture what made the original so special. There are many reasons why people want to see this happen, and I also want it to happen for some of my own, which are on par with why I love games like Suikoden 1 and 2 that boast strong emotion, Vagrant Story, which boasts strong narrative (though unspoken), and the Metal Gear Solid games for boasting both of those and having a special charm about them that make them age very well even after over a decade and a half. <3
