    I think it made sense for 7. Midgar was the most interesting set piece and a ton of stuff happens there. But it’s only like 10% of the game.

    Then you collect side characters like infinity stones and to through a bunch of their individual stories.

    This doesn’t make sense for 9. Also, isn’t it supposed to be a 1 for 1 remake?
