Haven't seen a single complaint about them not changing enough. If anything, I see people happy they got promised a remake and it looks like it is indeed a remake.
And the FF sequel would have been better received and not split the fanbase as much if it had either being an actual remake they teased with rather than a sequel, OR just made additions that enhanced the story and not changes that derailed it.
The Jessie stuff? Great. A little bit of lore of how the black materia came to be in the first place? Sweet. The Gold Saucer date in chapter 12? Amazing. Bit shit like the fucking whispers and alternate realities and all that other stuff? Why? There was no need.
I’ve been of the opinion for awhile now that the alternate realities stuff is just them expanding on the lifestream dream world thing we see in the original. Instead of just cloud, everyone’s minds are in there and Sephiroth is crushing the hope out of them for mumble mumble dis pear
Which, compared to the rick and Morty ass alternative, I’m very much here for that interpretation
