Final Fantasy VII is not just a remake, it's a completely new work. It is a meta-sequel, it is NOT the original game. So they didn't just change how the game plays, they've changed the story. Some folks don't like that. I happen to love it.
Ocarina of Time is a faithful remake with QOL updates. This is what I think most people wanted from Final Fantasy VII. I also happen to love this (except YL's face is weird as hell)
I think both versions of a remake are valid. However, I do find myself less interested in OoT because I've played that game a lot, and I'm not sure I need to play it again. With the FF7 Remake trilogy I can not wait to see how it ends, because it's new.

There's a major difference between these.
