Not so sure I would like a Square remake of FF7, after all...

Lol, have fun.  Asking human beings about their beliefs is prohibited (should be a sticky).

Also Proud Clod... To this day I have been reading it as Proud Cloud, no idea why now I feel stupid.

You aren't the only one. It took me a while to notice the difference and I have to read it twice every time now because I know it's wrong but I STILL read it that way first  :)
 
Though I have to agree that the majority of "Cloud's" after FFVII are emo, not all of them are. Crisis Core Cloud was pretty on par with his attitude in FFVII. He was happy a lot of the time, showed sadness when talking about not making it to SOLDIER and after arriving in Nibelheim (for the same reason). Square still remembers how to make Cloud a decent likable character and still stay true to the original, whether or not they actually DO stay true to it though may be another story entirely. It's a gamble, but worst-case-scenario if the DO remake VII and DO make him emo and annoyingly depressing, we still have the original, and nobody can take that from us.

Anyway, as for the discussion on translations and the project itself, I have to agree with DLPB. People complain about "correcting" the text saying the original was better, but I think they forget, the original was the JAPANESE title before it even hit the English language. If you are a true fan to the game, you would keep an open mind to the idea of the project, not completely pushing it away before you even touch it. Granted if you still like the original more, that's your opinion and you have a right to it. However, keeping a closed mind away from the idea entirely JUST because of nostalgia is an ignorant thing to do. Change isn't always a bad thing, if nothing ever changed, and everyone was against it, this forum wouldn't be here to begin with.

A side-note about Crisis Core : Crisis Core is a really good game. It has a good gameplay (sure, it's almost the same as FFVII's) but should be a game of itself. Not a prequel or any compilation of an already-finished game. Crisis Core would be fine if they didn't add Genesis and Angeal. I liked Angeal in the beginning. Then I began to hate him. His idea of "honor" and how he killed his own mother (sorry for spoilers) and all that. Genesis, while a good character, was simply out of place here. I mean come on, they changed the original story. DoC and AC are just pointless and add nothing to the story. I agree Vincent and Yuffie needed a bigger place, but is that a valid reason to make another game, with the name "Final Fantasy" on it, a First Person Shooter, that adds nothing? No. The answer is no, and that's all. They have their stories, in the original game. I will agree that FF7's story is very hard to understand, but adding a sequel, a prequel or a movie will not help. When I first played FF7 in English, I didn't know much and I thought that such errors like "This guy are sick" were intended, because in my head that game was perfect. I was mistaken, I realized.
 
lol Agreed. Had Crisis Core completely left out Angeal and Genesis, I wouldn't complain at all. They changed too much to the story, had it just been some kind of Ex-shinra scientist who helped Hojo or something like that and adding depth and hints to Sephiroth's origins, the game would probably be perfect. But thats just my opinion.
 
Something too : Crisis Core is a good game AS-IS, not as a prequel, sequel or whatever.

though the ending movies totally eliminated the possibility of it being a stand alone side story. That's rather sad
