However, the lack of information we've received and the time between announcements is starting to suggest that things aren't all going rosy. Now, there are reports that the Final Fantasy 7 Remake development has been troubled. Maybe even involving a complete abandonment of all work at one point.
The issues with Final Fantasy 7 Remake's development are apparently due to Square Enix abandoning all work completed by CyberConnect 2 and restarting from scratch.
Tsuka also claims that CyberConnect 2's work on Final Fantasy 7 Remake was "unusable."
When has a company taking work away from another company ever been a positive sign of things? I know CyberConnect's work was unusable, I've worked with them before, i know their level.
And I know they outsourced to hell and back in order to get things to the point we saw them publicly, and it still wasn't enough to save them.
When questioned about his knowledge of the Final Fantasy 7 Remake development cycle and whether he was simply speculating, Tsuka said;
I'm not speculating though. I've worked with these people and know people working still at both Square and CC2, I'm explaining what happened from what I know.
