I'm definitely old enough to have gotten into ff7 but when our family was choosing btw getting a psx and n64 my choice was the latter with no hesitation after trying both. and then when I was able to afford to buy a console used on my own it was saturn bc I was mad at Sony for supplanting Sega
the remake looks rly fun story wise but I'm hoping to wait until it hits pc if it ever does so I can get a mod to tone down the combat since I'm getting tired of rpg battling lately. But the core cast of a sympathetically-portrayed ecoterrorist leading a fight against a planet destroying corporation ending up working w a trans and gay polycule (aerith is a trans lesbian and cloud is nonbinary and I will die on this hill) is very appealing
