Re: "We'd Probably Have To Release Them In 4 Or 5 Instalments" - Final Fantasy XIV's Director On Why More Remakes Haven't Materialised

This statement from him is deeply disappointing and I feel he is entirely missing the point. Why does he even think Final Fantasy VI NEEDS a big budget AAA 3D 4-part 20 year project? It depresses me beyond words that we'll never get a proper remake just because he thinks it has to be that or nothing. So unbelievably short sighted.

What would be wrong with an HD-2D remake like those beautiful Dragon Quest 1&2 and DQ3 remakes? Why not take one look at something like Octopath Traveler and realize that's the perfect method for remaking VI? These are games from their own company for christ's sake, he can't tell me that he doesn't know about them.

This just shoots any theory that they might ever make one of these in the foot and saying "Sorry, we can't see the forest for the trees, so you don't get anything nice. We're not smart enough to think of it."
