Wait a minute, there's really going to be a Nier 2? Why are people talking about FF7 then? Who gives a flying gently caress about FF7 in light of this news?

Maybe because nobody knows what a loving Nier is.

I guess those fears SE were going to do a Konami and go all-in on mobile development can be put to rest; they're put out a really solid, confident presentation of games. WoFF even looks like it's tailor made to get mobile playing casuals interested in the core console games
I'm interested in almost everything they've announced. It feels like 1997 Square is back.

I don't think so. It's been many years since I've played the game, but I don't recall tracks like this playing when Mako reactors were being bombed or any of the other more dramatic parts:

In FF13 this plays while Vanille and Sazh are running away from the game's equivalents to Nazis. That isn't to say the track itself is poor, but the usage of it certainly is.

It's also playing in a lush, tropical forested/coast area.

I mean, considering the vast majority of the game is the cast running from something or another, if you constantly wanted tense chase music sure, but that'd get boring fast.

Eh, there are far more niche games than that one.

We don't need to be such dicks to each other, it's okay to be interested in both FF VII and NieR. :)

It doesn't have to be constant tense chase music (And shouldn't be), but the music should match the tone of what the story itself is going for at the moment.

But in 7 you're chasing down a murderous psychopath for like 25 hours and there's tons of goofy music because you do goofy stuff in between.

I personally cannot wait for all these kids who think ff7 is the rpg mecca finally being able to play it. And they'll find out it's just another run of the mill jrpg. It's mainly important/impressive because of what it did when it did it.

Personally the lack of another Remnant game means they have yet to win my heart.

The only notable thing from the crowd (which was basically empty) was a dude who screamed something like "OH MY GOD!!!!" when he thought Kingdom Hearts III was coming on and it was just for the mobile game.

I really don't even care about a remaster, I just want FF7 ported to PS4. I'm actually kinda bummed its a full remaster because that means its going to be a long wait.

Separate issue. They play the goofier music during goofy scenes, not while Cloud is trying to find Aerith right before she's killed or Barret is on the way to kill Dyne or Mako Reactors are being bombed or any of the other more serious parts of the story.

Whether those goofy scenes should exist or not is different debate. Personally I think it works because FF7 doesn't take itself so seriously the entire time, and they don't stress an absurd time limit on the party needing to accomplish their goals until Meteor is summoned IIRC. At that point, yeah, being able to chill out at the Gold Saucer doesn't make complete sense. In comparison, that segment of FF13 starts with Sazh and Vanille noticing the army is in the same area, state that they need to get away, then Vanille monologues about Sazh acting like she doesn't exist sometimes or something, and then we get a peppy song about rainbows in a bright jungle location as we engage in general gameplay that's disconnected from what sets this entire segment up.
