I don't get the troll part here and the memes.

People from Square-Enix announced the "PC version" of the game on PS4.

So?

If the game looks great on HD and in my 60" LED, then it'll be a MUST BUY for me, trying to beat Emerald Weapon at last, after two tries (on PSX and PS Vita).

They never talked about a remake AND, most important, as a big fan of the game, I fear what can anyone do remaking a game like this...
 
What's the Japanese internet saying about this?
Selections from the comments section of a popular culture blog's post about this announcement:
これ煽りだよな?
スクエニ絶対ユーザーに喧嘩売ってるよな?
This is instigating, isn't it?
SE wants to pick a fight with their fans?

ふざけるな





マジふざけるな
Are you kidding me?

Are you seriously kidding me?

観客があの人バカじゃないのって反応しててワロタwww
I LOL'ed when the audience reaction was like "Is that guy [Hashimoto] an idiot?"

スクエニに、リメイクするだけの力は もう、残っていない
Square doesn't have the ability to make even a remake anymore

別にPC版移植するのは良いけどこんな大々的に発表することじゃない
I think it's nice that they're porting the PC version but it's not really worth such a grand announcement...

「スクエニはゴミだ」
この日、世界中のゲーマーが心をひとつにしたのであった。
ありがとうスクウェアエニックス、さよならスクウェアエニックス。
"Square Enix is trash."
On this day, the hearts of gamers around the world became one.
Thanks Square Enix, Goodbye Square Enix.
 
I guess this completely kills off any hope for an FFVII remake ever happening. No matter how many people can dream it happening, it's just not going to happen.
 
Did they say explicitly that the game was the PC port? I am just wondering because he did say up-scaled graphics or something, no? Maybe a Jump Fiesta surprise?


(I know, I know....)
 
FFVII is serious business... Just announce a port like that through twitter or something... And again if they don't want to remake, just say it and close the chapter for once and all!

I'd imagine a legit remake nowadays would cost in the many $millions, so yeah they should just put it to rest or crowd fund it. You can't remake FF7 as it was...it is like creating a whole new game from the ground up but with enough of the structure of FF7 that no one gets mad.

He yelled saying we are bringing the pc game to PS4. I don't think anything is going to be improved on.
 
I doubt SE even has the ability to do an all out remake of the game, they've been criticized before for announcing things too early and at the moment have FFXV and KH3 in the pipeline. another large scale RPG that would be in development for multiple years is only going to compound the problem.
 
I don't even understand why Sony let SE go on stage with this announcement. Like someone else said, this is something you announce on Twitter or just a general news outlet, but on stage in front of all those people? No.

Thanks. The more I think about it, the more I want to believe this is a teaser of the real thing. They wouldn't kill their PR this bad. Would they?

That's the troll aspect of it. Get on the main stage in front of thousands of fans, build up anticipation, cue the iconic music, dim the lights......
then shit in their mouth.

They could use pre-existing engines and assets from XIII/XIV and maybe even XV. The basics are already there with other games, they'd just need to redesign some models and build new scenarios.

They have the money to do that, and they have the manpower. Or they could co-develop w/ Sony. It's not nearly as impossible as people make it seem.

This troll was in bad taste but I'm thinking it's just a tease for something very much a big surprise today that also might happen to be FF-related.
 
Pardon the ignorance but what is the difference - for example - between my PS3 version of FFVII and this PS4 version? Would this one have Trophies for example to match the PC's achievement addition or are there simply some touch-ups from the original game and nowt else?
