Rumor: FF9 Remake is cross-platform and “Not very ambitious”

If they redid the rooms to be rendered in real time, with better details... characters, cinematics, etc. but kept the same point of view (or something very similar) I would be extremely pleased.
Yuh if it’s a simple remake more like a HD remaster like crysis core w quality of life I’d be ok. What would be the price $50? Or $70?

4K HD backgrounds and an orchestrated soundtrack would be perfect. Id consider 7 and 9 to be Uematsu's best.

8 sucks maybe?... well yeah, 8 almost killed FF.

Going by sales this is false; in fact VIII was the best-selling FF game and might still be the case, also the best-selling in Japan.

What kinda screwed it up was the imbalanced Junction System but that's kind of become more liked over time for how OP you can make your party early on if you exploit it.

So it could be more of a Pokemon Shining Pearl/Brilliant Diamond aesthetic and retains the same gameplay and QoL improvements

FFXII is a great game in its own right.

Maybe not a great Final Fantasy but it had all the foundations for future FF games.

Of course people complained and we got FF13 and FF15.

Both garbage.
Since when is FF 13 garbage?

Why wouldn't people complain about getting a watered down, wannabe MMO game in a series that was anything but that? So instead of getting a proper FF game after people complained, we got a worse version of it. The series went downhill with XII.
Final Fantasy XII is top 3, I don't make the rules 😎

They need to keep up with 16 and remake budget. Or this is doomed to be forgotten
The last thing this needs a FF 16 budget. This game should be kept as close to the original as they can but of course with changes to the battle system. I wouldn't mind some added story stuff for characters like Amarant
