Holy crap, I just started the Yuffie DLC in Remake and I had no idea Fort Condor was in this expansion before Rebirth - and watching Yuffie's gameplay feels like this DLC was indeed made while Rebirth was being developed, a sort of stepping stone between Remake and Rebirth.
Are Cait Sith and Red XIII in Rebirth also 'advanced' in gameplay, like Yuffie is? It feels like Cloud, Tifa and Barret are Street Fighter 2 characters, while Yuffie is from Street Fighter 5 or something. Her gameplay is a LOT more expansive compared to Cloud's.
All the characters get major overhauls for the 2nd game. Aerial combat is a thing, dodge now works as an actual dodge and is much faster, snappy and just overall makes sense. You can now also parry by timing you guard.
Yuffie is still REALLY fun to play as in Rebirth and gets even more stuff, but everyone else also gets a BIG upgrade from Remake.
