Can remakes just chill out? Whenever I see hype for a game it's yet another godforsaken remake pulling people's nostalgia strings.

As much as I love 6...i think we need a break from Remakes of good games (what i mean by that is personally, I find it a waste when a great game gets a remake, but something like Devil May Cry 2 or the first Two Worlds, which are ripe to redeem themselves with a bitchin remake, get passed over in favor of games like Dead Space or RE 4--which were great! But like...both still hold up today tho. At least Lords of the Fallen is getting that second chance, I guess)

Also, if it does get made, here's hoping it's an actual Remake like System Shock was and not some fanciful interpretation of the word "Remake" like 7 was...but that's just my hope,IDK

I mean, they declared war in the original fan base with the ff7 remake. It’s hard to be excited about much of anything they do with the series lately.
