Does Rebirth make the Remake ending make sense?

[Bigboss PC Faster]

Remake Gameplay is decent but the ending makes no sense at all even if I come from Original

Everyone was talking nonsensically and flashbacks before the Sephiroth fight at the end,I wonder how the newcomer will feel about Zack that come out of nowhere. it made me feel like I was playing Kingdom Hearts

Seeing as how the remake trilogy incorporates many elements from the greater compilation of FF7, it's being done intentionally, which is rather annoying since the original FF7 was quite simple and a standalone title. Now, we have to dig into the compilation material to really understand what's happening.

the ending of both games are intentionally confusing, purposefully leaving you on a cliffhanger of some kind until the final game. if it was just a spiky wheel boss and roll the credits then it would be anticlimactic af

you do get some answers, but you are left with more questions. the intent is to give you mystery to a 27 year old plot that everybody knows

Despite using the term "remake" all over the marketing and the game itself, the new trilogy is actually a direct sequel. When you look at it through that lens the story makes complete sense. I'm not saying it's a good story, just that it makes sense.

it's normal Final Fantasy remake & rebirth haven't a ending.

There has been much speculation, but we won't actually understand what is actually going on until part 3, and that is exactly what Square Enix wants.

yeah, there is no intruigue without mystery

some say it’s a sequel, some say it’s not.. i don’t think it is. i think they introduced some elements that give you the fear of changing the story but if you look at the story beats… the party is still doing all the exact same things as the original game. i think the devs are just ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ with us to keep some mystery to the plot so that it feels new.

otherwise it would just be like “and then this happens, and then this happens…”. like hearing your dad tell you the same story 80 times and you pretend it’s the first but it’s not funny anymore, you’re just being nice
