There's a bunch of art on twitter of Tifa being super buff. it's great.
One thing i hope they do in the remake is really show Tifa's superhuman ability. We're talking about a person who has shown the ability to throw cloud into the speed of sound just by throwing him in AC. In cutscenes show her actually punching monsters in the face. She can't be confined to a metal chair with some constraints on at Junon anymore or play slap fight with some pissant. Show her kicking ass!
In the style of the Chrono Trigger redesigns Ive been making (plug!) I figured Id give this a shot
Shes a tricky character, needs to be able to kick ass, work a bar, she actually is pretty feminine in a lot of traditional ways so you need some of that thrown in too. Not many changes though, her original design is great.
While past experiences have unanimously proven it's better not to have it at all, I do think a bit of "movement" would work best on certain outfits.
I'm specifically thinking of Vanille from FFXIII and how weird she looked with her permanently perky chest. But I can't recall of any instances where boob jiggle looked even remotely natural, especially for Japanese games. So better to not go that route here.
Can't wait for the Yuffie topic (who I also doubt will receive many changes). Some bans coming that way lol
What's the matter with Yuffie now?I don't expect her to be buff. Maybe slightly toned, but not really noticeable if at all
I expect her to be how she's always been for every appearance post og FF7.
Yet "fans" will be delusional that they somehow did something to her and rage

This is pretty dope. Would be great if she shows off some muscle
Nothing
Why would you like to replace the skirt? I assume you'd prefer shorts instead?I want her to look sexy, but not ridiculous. Doesn't have to be anything more than that. Replacing the skirt and adding more muscle tone would be great, but I'm highly doubtful either will happen considering how "sacred" Japan considers skirt designs, and I'm not sure how receptive they would be on the latter.

there's athletic skirts that solve those issues, which i would expect them to do if they keep her in a skirt because i agree with your points.Eliminates gratuitous panty shots.
Plus, you know...shouldn't be wearing that if you're gonna do a lot of high kicks.

Nothing whatsoever. There is literally nothing about her design to change. It's fine.
They ain't alone, they're just more, erm, open about it.Yes, that makes the most sense.
.....but Japan really, REALLY likes panties.
To this day I can't decide if the slap exchanges were dumb or awesome.
It's the push and pull of all the mini games they included in FF7 because they can. Dolphin riding, snowboarding, Chocobo racing.To this day I can't decide if the slap exchanges were dumb or awesome.
ff7 being a game i played early on in life made it so that i didn't really appreciate tifa for what she was at the time. i took her as a generic (re: big boobed) eye candy character, only to realize years later how stupid i was in that assertion. damn, i'd kill for more bartender tomboy monster punchers that occasionally wear western clothing.
I live and breath for this moment.The only bigger E3 reveal than Tifa would be Cloud in a dress.

Damn, that fanart is great. It would be a great rendition in the remake if it was like that.

Remake won't have Cloud in a dress. Instead, Cloud will infiltrate the Don's manor disguised as a giant Cup Noodle.
This is pretty good, just touch up the face a little bit and tone the muscles. You can also kinda make an argument that she is a bit overdesigned with the cloth wrap on one of her gloves and the bizarre metal plate on her boot, but I feel this captures the essence of Tifa very well.
it should be one of those things they tease at the very end of the trailer to alleviate the drama with a funny moment.The only bigger E3 reveal than Tifa would be Cloud in a dress.
I actually came to post this art. I love how the artist drew Aerith and Yuffie too.

Yeah, but Toriyama did eventually make one change - he decided to increase her bust for Lightning Returns...People hoping for muscle tone or more weight might be disappointed as even Lightning saw a reduction when they revised/finalized her design:
