Okay okay..Remake was fine but..We can't just forgot the first one.. Here's my thoughts on Remake anyway:
1. WHAT IS THAT LIGHTING??? IT'S AWFUL!
2. The combat wasn't that bad but it was that bad.
3. Excuse me..Fates..? WHAT?
4. Red was so pretty I want to play as him :(
and lastly, 5. I'm kinda glad Tifa's hair wasn't as long lol
Now, does anyone else have any thoughts of Remake or the first one?

I am reluctant to play the remake after hearing there’s been quite a few changes. This is only word of mouth talk but it’s been slowly pushing me away from it. Because I am not someone who likes change, and as a fan of the original, I don’t really wanna see a difference.
Like I heard something about alternate endings?? And I dunno if that’s my jam.
Also the changing of voice actors to me is really... meh.

I had to watch a playthrough of it because I don't own a playstation, but I made sure to play the original beforehand. :)
The plot ghosts were a very strange addition, but I'll reserve most of my judgement for when future chapters are released. Honestly my main complaint was that Sephiroth had too much of a presence. I think they revealed him too early (and the last battle was ???) and Cloud's visions of the reunion and whatnot were definitely not necessary. It is a good teaser for people who know the plot, but ruins the surprise for anyone who has never played.
At least Cloud was very handsome and I did like his voice a lot.

I watched a playthrough and did a 9 hour long play by play commentary with my bro who's overseas atm and let me tell you, we just made fun of a lot of it but I'll boil it down to three facts
1) The cats are cute ** in the remake
2) It was weird ** seeing Sephiroth fight physically (with fists/actually grabbing Cloud) instead of being the untouchable being he is portrayed to be
3) Do all SOLDIERS have dance choreography class? Cuz Cloud can WORK IT!

Funny enough, I really loved the lighting! (I'm pretty much a moth in a human body, though. lol) That, the fighting, and the music were my favourite things, along with Marle (who I swear is the digital reincarnation of Phyllis Diller).
Both my spouse and I played the original, and we both highly enjoyed the remake. c:

The characters and their interactions were the best part of the game. (And the soundtrack.) I dunno what to think about the ending since it seems like it's hard to judge it without seeing where they go with it in the next part, like it could be interesting depending on what they do from here. I hate the time ghosts though and hope we're done with them, they just made every scene they shown up in silly.
The battle system ended up frustrating me so much I dropped it to easy in the last few chapters. Loved going to use an elixir and getting knocked out of using it by an attack and the game taking the item off me but not using it. The amount of stunlocking by enemies got ridiculous too.

I grew up on the original, I love the original, the original is my soul of video games and...
I absolutely adored the remake. People! It's a remake, it's not going to be EXACTLY like the original. It's been over 20 years since they made the original. It would be absolutely boring if all they did was better up the graphics!
The battle system? Amazing. It still feels like it's in ATB, since...well, in some sorts, it is, just not in sync with everyone at the same timing. Which is great. Having them in different time sets really let's you do some pounding with the materia system.
In saying that, the materia system? PRECIOUS. It kinda sucks you can only have on one summon at a time, but who knows if that'll change? But HP+? Enemy Skill? All of it, it's just...it's pretty much the original materia system, so who can complain about it? There's even new materia that just blew my mind how they made that okay.
The characters? HAVE DEPTH! Doing all those side quests with them lets you see more into their character, and see who they really are. How they see Cloud, and all that jazz. And Barret? Saying goodbye to Marlene? That made it all so precious.
The crossdressing? Omg, I loved it. It gave it a new spin, and it was wonderful. (Who would've thought Cloud could dance?) I cracked up the whole time. It was given a more modern take, which was needed for today's kinda game. Can you really be mad at what they did? It's suuuper hard to not just crack up and go with it.
The storyline; Followed it perfectly. The side quests just giving us more in depth look into midgar, which was honestly really needed because it gave them more of a reason TO fight Sephy, and go after him. The sewers? Gross and honest. The train graveyard? Those ghosts were fun, I don't care. It gave it a reason TO be a train graveyard. The wall climb? Much nicer, and made muuuuch more sense than the original story now that I think about it. And I have no qualms about ShinRa HQ. They did wonderful there.
The 'cloaked' ones, also known as those with the numbers, and probably called a lot of other things that I can't think of at the moment because I'm just writing this as I go. But THEM, they make more sense now too. Fixing some of the original stories storyline flaws. And the ghosts...they're interesting too. I'm curious as to what they'll play in the future.
NEED I SAY MORE?!
Now I'm probably gonna get people that don't like how I see it, but shuush, that's how I sees it. >|
And the music is freaking wonderful.
I'm done for now...
