Final Fantasy 7: Remake. I now understand what all the fuss was about and why it's probably the most famous out of them all (I might be wrong on that). I haven't played the original so this was a great introduction.
FF7 (original) is famous because it was a huge jump from 2d pixel to 3d models. The original iteration had tank controls, and the game was long. But largely empty and slowed down by random encounters.
The new one changed the story dramatically. The next game will further deviate from the original.
