Playing FFVII once was plenty for me and I've no desire to play its v2 (doubly so if the camera/controls are the same as the PS1 version, though I doubt that). XVI I didn't even know about. Disliking the camera/controls of VII was part of the reason I never played the later ones except for the MMOs.

VII remakes are way different to the OG. Have you even seen footage of it? The camera is nowhere near the same as the original

I remember seeing a video at some point but not if it were cutscene/promo or gameplay

Camera controls or the lack of them? Ff7/8/9 had a fixed camera everywhere but the world map.

The camera is a lot closer to the MMOs now.

I might have to get to them at some point, then; time is the limiting factor now as I work 1.5 jobs and have all the normal home maintenance/work on top of that.

Congratulations, you are indeed not the target audience!

Indeed, but I still do somewhat keep up with various gaming news, so it seems weird that XVI didn't leave any real impression in my head unless I did somehow just totally miss it
