TBH I don't really mind a change in gameplay for FF7 or FF16. I don't mind alternative story direction or action combat. But I'm not a purist and my favourite was FF12 so I guess purists consider my opinion invalid... LOL

FF7R being divided up into multiple releases and sold individually has caused me to just wait it out and buy later. Surely I'm not the only one. I'm also a PC gamer, so sometimes I can't buy even if I wanted to and it just slips from my mind. Oh well.
