Final Fantasy VII Remake - the true meaning of "remake"

The addition of "Remake" to the PS4 version of Final Fantasy VII had always seemed a little clumsy and on the nose to me. Like bad marketing? But it turns out there was a deeper, story-specific meaning to the title that you would never guess unless you played the game! We'll talk about that, the nature of FVIIR being a sequel, and how this compares to Stephen King's Dark Tower series.
