>Why exactly does it create so much seethe?
It's a mix of things:
1. OG FFVII curmudgeons who hate the fact that FFVII Remake trilogy's story isn't a 1:1 retelling of the original game and is actually a sequel.
2. Obnoxious turntrannies who hate the fact that the game is an Action RPG instead of having turn based combat.
3. He who shall not be named still being asspained that Final Fantasy XV's director was fired from Square Enix, that Forspoken flopped, and that Luminous (the devs behind XV and Flopspoken) got shut down.
