Listen closely, there is meaning in my words.

I mean, I can easily admit a game's pretty mediocre and a surprisingly poor example of it's genre, while unironically enjoying it's surface storyline because it centers around a character I like and the character designs of everyone else amuse the fuck out of me
It sorta surprises me how some think that because Dirge was a weak PS2 game, it'll somehow mean this is going to be a weak PS5 game when they're nothing alike save for being unsurprisingly, in the same continuity, sharing some characters and some concepts. Just because the previous entry was poor doesn't mean any future work utilizing elements from it will just repeat the same result. It's just unfortunately condemnation by association. Thankfully, DC didn't do so badly that it pulled a Sonic 06/Rise of Lyric/Forces and just annihilate any sense of positive hype that may come from a future title.
Hell, Star Wars Attack of the Clones was a pretty bad movie, however the Clone Wars series was pretty damn good. I'd say better than the movie. That's another example of a future work based on trash actually turning into treasure
That was my deepest, longshot wish that I wanted Part 1 to do with what existed in DC, given the expansion of Midgar was the best and most opportune moment to do it, and the Remake could breath new, quality life into it. Between the proximity to Deepground, the virtual combat simulator and just perfect alignment of events, I figured it was a longshot wish but it'd be the best chance. I'm so glad my wish turned out answered
