Edit: I removed my previous review.

The longer I sit on this game, the more I realized just how much I hated this game. I hated the long, drawn out damage sponge bosses and can't think of a single one that was actually fun to fight. I hated the changes to the story that only served to bloat out the game and turned a streamlined story into a disgusting cash grab where instead of selling you a full game for $60+, they'll sell it to you in parts at full price 3 times over. I hated how they overplayed Sephiroth and ruined his reveal for players new to FF7. I hated the tacked on side quests that only served to further pad out the bloat they already added. I hate the English voice acting where they all sound like they're desperately impersonating the characters instead of just being them. And above all, I despised the fact that the in-game representation of the people who wanted a remake faithful to the original (you know, an actual remake and not this crap where they gaslit people into changing the definition of a remake) are the villains of the game. I am so tired of FF7 at this point that I've decided to ignore everything beyond the original game and write them all off as bad fanfiction. The music was great, and that's it.
