I don't like that Rebirth is different from the original. Why did the creators change the staircase of the Nibel Mako Reactor? Why can't you go to the second floor of the Shinra Manor anymore? Why did the Fort Condor tower become this weird board game that doesn't give you enough time to think? Why doesn't the Gold Saucer look gold anymore? Why was the Speed Square changed to a wannabe Star Fox game? The Chocobo Race Square isn't its own building anymore. Why is Cloud alone when you reach the Corel Prison/Dust Bowl? Why do you need the Tiny Bronco to reach Cosmo Canyon and Nibelheim? Why can't you control Cloud in the Gi Cavern? Why is Red XIII the leader instead of Cloud? In the original, Cloud was the leader for most of the game. What happened to Rocket Town, where you originally met Cid, who had plans to meet Rufus? The Temple of Ancients isn't a temple anymore. Instead, it ended up more like the Northern Crater from the original. Why are the enemies in the temple so hard to beat, even on normal difficulty? Why can't you explore the Forgotten Capital once you get there? What happened to Aerith's water burial, which was in both the original game and the Advent Children recap? And why does the remake have an alternate timeline in which Zack is alive? Square Enix was supposed to remake the original Final Fantasy VII, not change it.
