Goddammit Square Enix.
EDIT: My bad, their twitter is still active.
tinyE: They sounded dubious to begin with. I didn't think they looked that different, they totally didn't sound any different, and then I started hearing things about them possibly being buggy, little more than mods/wrappers.

Yeah. First they said it is going to be a remaster. Then it became a mod. First they said an open beta was planned for the this summer. Later they said it needs to be greenlit by Square Enix.

IMO they didn't need to. I would be happy with a version that just runs on modern windows (and maybe linux) and nothing else is changed (Gameplay-wise. Under the hood changes are always welcome).

Really? I heard it was the mobile ports that were not that good (they were made by the people behind this) but I did not heard anything like that. Can you give me some sources?
