I was expecting for Square Enix to make real-time battles with global cool downs like WoW. It failed. I do understand they want to stick to the turn based battle system. But that shit doesn't work very well in MMOs. MMOs is all about real time and physics and open world; not a closed world with different paths and instances (warps from field to field, thats not a true open world). I enjoy those three as the back bone for MMOs and WoW's been doing a fabulous job at it.

But you were talking about remaking the older games. Not another MMO, so comparing it to WoW wouldn't work.

Thing is, if all they updated was graphics, leaving all mechanics of the world and battles, materia, everything as it was in the original, with ONLY updated graphics, I'd buy 5 box sets.
1- for playing
1- for show
1- as backup
1- into a frame
1- to sleep with
I mean, come ON!!
Final Fantasy VII was probably the best combination of modern (at the date) graphics capabilities, storyboard, and actual availability on both popular platforms, PSX and PC, it actually sold in millions, and people still play this game, so long after it's release, this game is an Icon of how games should be done, using the top possible graphics with a long, complex story, with plenty of stuff to do around, if their next Final Fantasy (XV!) would be available on Xbox/PS3/PC using the top notch possible graphics, long deep complex story.
Even if it was on 10 DVDs I would not hesitate buying it if it meant plenty of hours of gameplay, fun mechanics, awesome story, and simple yet complicated, easy yet advanced workings of battle/combat system like in FF7, where you could use Materia to your liking (equip Alexander + Elemental into a weapon and fight an undead enemy = EPIC PWNAGE) or producing a complete FTW OWNED combo (1x Hades+1x Knights of round +omnislash with weapon with enemy elemental weakness attack) I was always having an awesome fun in combat, and the game was swallowing me with it's story.
I would so buy it, I wish they did the Re-Make of FFVII for all 3 platforms, with only updated graphics, and it would be so cool, i would take a week off to play the game :)

So would I with updated graphics. Thats what I was trying to say. But if they tried to 'update' the rest I wouldn't touch it.

yup, all the stuff in FFVII was perfect, in fact,
I wouldn't mind one modification,
difficulty level,
the original had 2 sets, the PSX was crap easy, some mobs in PC version were 10 times tougher than the PSX version, using the PC version Original setting as EASY ( :) ) would be a lot of fun,
so you finished the game ? so what ? click [+] on the New game, see if you can handle it a bit harder,
with less money from mobs, less XP from battles, slowing your progress, and endangering yourself with every [+] slick after finishing the harder game,
and no, none of your belongings get transferred,
the only other thing you unlock are some CGs like in old days, concept art, movies, perhaps an additional fun weapon to twirl around in battle, to make yourself less serious :D
that would be so awesome, 50[+]'s later, fighting a dragon at lvl 50 with a party of 3 lvl 24's,
Cloud :"uhhm, were fucked!"
Aerith:"No kidding!"
Tifa :"TORRIYAAAA!"

Except for everything in the fucking game (except the music and the graphics, those were good).
Gah, I hated that stupid game so much. Terrible, internally inconsistent story. Dumb characters. An incredibly lame villain.
Just a bad game all around.
