    I for one am glad they did it. It’s breathed so much more life into the world in doing so. OG is a great game but I’ve been enjoying the remakes way more. And FFVII OG is my favourite RPG and one of the first games I ever played, I used to replay it every other year.

        Is it mismanagement if the reason it’s only on one console at launch is because the devs want to get each game out as soon as possible, only having to focus on one piece of hardware? They also got more money to make the make the games as big as they are due to making that console the playstation and having Sony invest in timed exclusivity? Seems like a win-win to me. Doesn’t stop Sony from having extremely ludicrous metrics in which they expect their games to measure up to though. Which is ultimately why it seems every game they release never meets them.

          I mean, yeah? Bad decisions for good reasons are still bad decisions 🤷‍♂️

            I think it’s a good decision to make it so that each game is coming out sooner though. There’s already 2-3 years between each installment.
