To be fair, at least CAPCOM has been producing pretty stellar content with their remakes/reboots. And while the FFVII remake looks visually stunning, I fear the design philosophy of Square Enix differs from a company like CAPCOM. The Resident Evil 2 remake for instance was fun to play and built from the ground up to be a return to roots and full game.
The guard scorpion by contrast in the Final Fantasy VII Remake demo footage looks like a needlessly long fight when you compare it to the original game. However, that could just be me, as I am not a big fan of Monster Hunter (ironic I know, since I'm praising Capcom XD) style games where the enemies are bullet sponges in terms of their health pools. It just seems they are trying too hard to please too many audiences. We will have to wait and see. I am sure Square Enix will follow the money though.
I hope Square Enix gets that wake up call they need. We'll have to wait and see with their remake of VII.
