I Have Thoughts On Where Each Upcoming Installment Of Final Fantasy 7 Remake Should End

thegamer.com:

Final Fantasy 7 Remake won’t be a trilogy.

This isn’t a news article. I don’t have anything to back up this claim. This is just me, a fan, making a guess. Hopefully, you’ll agree that it’s an educated guess. But at the end of the day, it’s just a guess.

I remember it like it was yesterday.

But humans can be quite good at seeing what they want to see. Thus, it was a shock to the system for some people when the relative brevity of the 2020 game was formally revealed.

Loads of folks have convinced themselves that Part 2 ends with the death of a certain flower girl.

My disagreement is vast and my disappointment in the popular opinion is even… uh, vaster. Every unique sign in Wall Market, every character’s luxurious hairstyle,
