Final Fantasy 7 is 25 years old in 2022, and the Final Fantasy series as a whole is on its 35th anniversary. The franchise that practically made Square (now Square Enix) a household name has had quite a ride and it is continuing with plenty of Final Fantasy 7 goodness in 2022. In addition to several projects and surprises on the way, Final Fantasy director Yoshinori Kitase recently confirmed that we’ll get our first glimpse at Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 2 sometime this year.
The news of Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 2’s reveal comes from a report at Video Games Chronicle, who shared a tidbit of a Final Fantasy 7 fan event translated by Q-Games PR/Community Manager PushDustin. In said event, Kitase shared thanks with fans who had supported Final Fantasy and promised that plenty was on the way for FF7’s 25th anniversary, including an upcoming reveal of Part 2 of the remake this year.
“We are hard at work on Final Fantasy VII: Ever Crisis, so please look forward to that,” Kitase said. “In addition, with regards to the long awaited Final Fantasy VII Remake [Part 2]… there will be more information… this year if we can.”

When 3d rendered detail is as good or better than a static 2d background, the difference is semantic. If you played the FF7 Remake, you would have noticed that the 3d models for the characters are drastically improved.
Since no one is buying top down isometric RPGs with static 2d backgrounds and richly detailed 3d models, it's probably more realistic to shoot for what we already got.
If your point is that the game is different and not a recreation of the original, I am not sure what to tell you. Other than it's never going to happen.-

Since events are being changed, a curious player might wonder why that is instead of just whining about it. If you've played FF7R, you'd know it's like a sequel, not a remake. (the Remake in the title is a verb, not an adjective). These events have happened before, but something is different and this is obvious right from the beginning of the game. Sephiroth is CHANGING THINGS that happened in the original game. Remaking them, if you will. And he is doing it on purpose, not just to disappoint you.
Since you don't seem to care, I'm not going to spoiler protect any of that.-

Eh. I enjoyed most of my time with the first, but I sincerely hope whoever was responsible for the highway sequence and those last few bosses isn't working on it (or anything else I ever play).
I will say I haven't found any of the new content with Sephiroth, from Advent Children onward, to be compelling in the slightest. -

This is what I want: https://youtu.be/j6ZDKZfr-i0
But Ever Crisis isn't a full remaster/remake, unfortunately. It's a weird episodic retelling that jumps from event to a event, and won't really be like playing FF7.

The 2D backgrounds look pretty damn good did people re-render these or is this just AI upscaling and retouching by hand? Only complaint with that is the rather jarring transition between the 2D backdrops and 3D animations at times. That was one thing that was great on the PS1 game on a CRT it was pretty seamless.

There was quite a bit I thought might have worked through the abstraction of sprite (or just less realistic) graphics, but which was stilted and unnatural for a realistic, fully voiced game.
I still mostly liked it, but none of the characters ever seem to have chemistry or talk to each other in a way that feels normal. -
