Seems like a goldmine of content for them to work on for the next decade+. Plenty of people will never experience these worlds or stories due to the turn-based combat, so giving them the Remake treatment could be the only way an audience ever finds them.
I would like to see FF8 remade next. It’s the next logical choice becauase 8 comes after 7 and it’s a solid world to leave the FF7 rut for.
The rest could be good, too, but FF8 would probably be the easiest to pull off successfully.
If they ever gonna remake 8 it needs to be one game, just a solid 20-30 hour experience. The story needs a rewrite anyway. It is bloated and the dialogue has too much cringy emo shit. Would translate horribly to voice acted dialogue.
I think they should stick to turn based combat and just modernize it like Persona or Clair Obscur. As an FF fan I don’t like the modern action based combat the series have turned to. It doesn’t feel like a proper FF game. And the action gameplay just isn’t great. They should create a new series for these type of action games that doesn’t have to carry the FF branding so they don’t have to tack on these final fantasy gameplay elements to the action combat and turn it into a half baked mess.
