re: All info/activities/etc so far released on what we can expect from FF7 Rebirth;Long/Pics

So, I'll preface this by saying that I played and replayed Remake at least ten times through every chapter, and used chapter select options to play through my favorite chapters as a stand alone many times more, then did a handful of replays of the DLC so I did this to myself, but...

I've been deliberately trying not to watch gameplay videos as I want to dive straight into Rebirth just like I did Remake without spoilers. I have inadvertently seen some of the gameplay footage though and couldn't bring myself to look away. What I saw/heard was most definitely new areas, but with the same rehashed area-specific music from the first title. The music was actually really good in Remake but the last thing I really want to endure is running through a whole new area while the Remake music from the Underplate or the Sewers plays in the background.

Maybe it's just music they used for demo gameplay purposes and the actual release will have a new score. Not sure how that works. I really love the background score from the Sector 5 slums, but that just seems very personal to that specific area and the connection to the "Hollow" credits song and Aerith, so I hope they don't reuse it.

Just a minor thing, I know. I just really liked the score from Remake (except for the Underplate) and hope they bring us a new score along with the new release. Either way, my excitement level is 10/10 for this release, and it's almost torture seeing the countdown on my PS5 every day.
