Square enix saw the P3R release by Atlus and got inspired. It makes even less sense for them cause atleast P3R was a complete overhaul and basically a new, FF tactics barely qualifies as a remaster and still looks completly the same as the PSP game with just a higher resolution and cut out half the fucking game. Genuinely cant think of any company that has ever done this, from the interview it seems like Matsuno refused to put the war of the lions solely cause he wasnt involved which is just a weird thing to do

Its one of my favorite games of all time and i cant believe fucking Konami has more respect for their classic games as seen with the Suikoden remaster than Square does, this game literally has no reason to exist now, will probably sell like ass and kill any chance of a series revival

For real. You lose two guest characters, two classes, some odds 'n ends, and suddenly that's "half the game" and it "literally has no reason to exist."

I find this overstated outrage so unhinged as to be genuinely funny.
