Can't wait to see how Vincent plays.
Also, no crappy Genesis stuff shown yet, which is a huge plus!
This.

In my opinion, turn based combat is dead these days, people should get over it.
Turn based combat was considered old when Lost Odyssey came out ... 8 years ago.
I understand that there's still a good amount of people that prefer straight up turn based. Yeah, I'll agree that it's refreshing sometimes to see turn-based combat make a comeback. But don't rule what they have right now out just yet, it might just be better.
People are getting what their inner childhood have wanted for years and years. They're getting Final Fantasy VII updated to the 21st century. This includes graphics that can finally be the splitting image of our imaginations about the world the game took place in and its characters. This 21st century update also includes the gameplay.
No, it won't be a carbon copy of the Playstation classic, but at the end of the day I don't think the audience truly desires the same exact game. From what I see from the trailer it's the game we remember from our childhood all grown up. People change when they become adults, but not always for the worse. That's how I see it, and I think that's exactly what the majority of people wanted out of this remake.
I didn't think it would look this good, personally. I'm stoked.
