If anyone's to blame it's Nomura. He's the one responsible for all the stupid shit regarding FF7, including that superficial DBZ wankfest Advent Children, as well as all the characters' flanderized appearances in Kingdom Hearts etc. With him in charge of the remake I have very little hope that it will be good. He's like George Lucas and Hideo Kojima, he works best when he has other people to keep his faggotry in check.

Oh, I remember this. Yeah, Cait is ridiculous, but that's kind the point: Final Fantasy isn't suppose to be a super serious angst fest all the time, you need the occasional levity. We might as well get rid of Red XIII, Cosmo Canyon and Wutai too; they clearly have no place in this grimdark story.

Could Cait have been better? Certainly; I personally would like it to be to clear how much of his actions are the the cat itself talking and how much is Reeve speaking to you. Plus, Cait still has a few good moments, the end of Temple of the Ancients being the best example.

Replacing Cait with a literal donut-steel who's name may as well be "Judas the Backstabber" is not how to fix things. Especially form a guy who purports his translation is more faithful. I find that hard to believe when you're next step is to start deleting canon characters.

People like this who demand "muh FF7 must be serious and grimdark!" are why we got crap like Advent Children and Dirge of Cerberus.

And then everyone gets derailed thanks to the Compilation anyway, so why bother?

I'm willing to bet cash money that this dude wacthed Advent Children first, then played the game and now he's trying to "fix" it.
