Crisis Core Reunion definitely shows signs of being a remake of a PSP game released in 2007, with its incredibly brief mission structure and small areas to explore, but I think it still handles the transition better for Final Fantasy VII than Kingdom Hearts did, and Reunion adds a lot of quality of life upgrades that make the experience much more pleasant.

Playing this so close to Final Fantasy VII Remake magnifies the issues I have this Crisis Core's writing, especially with the character Genesis whom I loathe.

All the same, I still love the character Zack. The game does a lot to make him a fun, respectable guy thrust into ridiculous situations.
