For me, it’s one of two choices:

Final Fantasy VIII - It’s one of my favourite entries in the series and think they’ve ignored it far too much over the years. There’s a lot they could do with it, not just visually, but with the story and mechanics too.

Final Fantasy Tactics - This game is just fantastic all round, and I can’t say any more than that.

What would you choose?

Excellent choice ;) It’s another in the franchise that needs some love, I think. Maybe the success of other SRPGs will give SE something to think about, and put it under consideration.

FWIW Tactics is also on iOS/iPadOS.

Yeah I didn't know because I don't have Apple products. I think SE could make bank by just re-releasing these games so players who have portable systems like the Steam Deck can play.

100%, and that is why people always end up emulating these games. They’re missing out on a lot of cash by holding these back. While we’re on it, they need to do something about Vagrant Story, too.

They could expand their franchise so much. It could reach into different genres. Turn-based rpgs, strategy rpgs, action rpgs, card games, moba, etc. They don't have to be limited to rpgs. They have a lot of content and a strong brand to work with.
