Loved FF7 but i hate this FF13 Gameplay so iam out.
Answer is honestly pretty cut and dry....
https://vgsales.fandom.com/wiki/Best...are-Enix_games
FF7 is currently STILL the best selling game Square AND Enix has ever had..that includes them buying Eidos and from subsequent re releases of all of such games...hell the list on the site is even including sales of the SNES classic for FF6s numbers...Pop culture wise FF7 is still the stand out more people recognize Cloud's profile as a Final Fantasy character than ANY other character in their history......
I agree there are many WAAAY better games....but from a buisness perspective..the numbers don't lie Square might be pulling a bit of a Disney on this one and you know damned well its working....
Also on a personal note....of ALL the classic FF games....right now 7 is the most in need of any kind of a remake...
1-4 has all had some huge remasters...honestly 4 didn't need them but got remakes in spades
5 and 6 look fine as is
8 and 9 might need some sharpening up for modern systems (WHICH THEY GOT) but look fine otherwise
X and XII got HD rereleases and honestly didn't look that bad without it
13 and 15 ...are 13 and 15
7 ....the visuals of it has aged BADLY and no amount of HD remaking is going to really fix it....some mods have helped it but...it still looks janky
I have a feeling he means FFXV, which has fairly action based combat.
And to be fair, when I first saw the remake, I was worried as well. But each subsequent trailer/demo has increased my hype more. The combat looks about as close to turn based as we're ever going to get from a modern day mainline FF title, Summons look fantastic and from what we've seen of it, the materia system looks to have been improved.
Not sure if they could do anything at this point that would stop me buying the game.

It sounds like you just don't like arpgs then, which means this game won't be for you. I will say if you are looking to give action combat games another go, I do recommend Kingdom Hearts 2. It is widely considered the pinnacle of action combat.
As for FFVII Remake, I was skeptical as well until they showcased the combat in the recent trailers. We'll have to wait till the final product, but the game already looks miles better than FFXV in terms of combat.
Eh don't get your hopes up too much, it sounds like an easy mode more so then trying to recreate the old school ATB FF system.
It's probably the same game only you can sit around with your controller on the table doing nothing until ATB fills, then it auto pauses the game with the time freeze they have shown off many times until you select an ability to do. Mode will likely be trash.
