I have fond memories of this game, i simply adored the original when i was a teenager.
I was obviously afraid to even try the remake. Would they destroy it like disney destroyed star wars? Another cash grab, for al the fans who would try anything to get this nostalgic sense of wonder and adventure they once experienced?
But i did try and square redeemed themselves in an epic fashion. This game is loyal to the fans and the original game. They didn't try to force it on a new generation with the gameplay they expect. Instead, they lovingly took what made the original so memorable. Tried to expand on what worked and what could be improved. At the same time reworking the story, to fit within a modern game and modern storytelling.
They succeeded beyond expectation. Even the music is perfectly improved. I am enjoying everything, experiencing this story i already know and love, in new ways as an adult.
Good job Square! More of this please(ff9)
