For me, it’s one of two choices:

Final Fantasy VIII - It’s one of my favourite entries in the series and think they’ve ignored it far too much over the years. There’s a lot they could do with it, not just visually, but with the story and mechanics too.

Final Fantasy Tactics - This game is just fantastic all round, and I can’t say any more than that.

What would you choose?

Personally, I don’t love FF7R. FF7 is at the top of my all time greatest list of games. It is one of my favorites.

The remake, while really graphically pretty, just didn’t hit the mark for me. The changes to combat and gear didn’t work for me. I want turn based combat with materia socketed in items, just with modern graphics and the story updates.

I didn't mind the updated combat. For a modern audience that's a must. What bothered me is how they changed the story. I didn't even mind that they filled some things out and added events that weren't in the original. But the fact that the actual story was different actually makes me not want to buy the second one.
