I mean, it doesn’t have much plot relevance to the game itself, but, when interpreted…
“Long ago we looked upon a foreboding sky, the memory of star that threathened all burns eternal in our hearts”
This is some end-game final fantasy VII plot shit, with long ago meaning when the game was originally released on PS1
“In it’s wake came an age of silence”
Nothing about any remakes, even tho there was a PS3 tech demo and remakes of a shitload of other FF games
“Yet with each fond rememberance we knew, those encountered were not forgotten, that some day we would see them again. Perhaps it was no more than wishful thinking”
Every time a player is reminded of the game they remembered the fun times with it, hoping the characters were not forgotten. And that a possible remake may be just wishful thinking… Especially after that tech demo on PS3
“But after the long calms there are now the beginnings of a stir. The reunion at hand may bring joy it may bring fear, but let us embrace whatever it brings”
Read as: WE ARE ANNOUNCING THE REMAKE, BE HAPPY; while people may also be afraid if it won’t ruin the original, hence ‘it may bring fear’. But to embrace it anyway
“For they are coming back, at last the promise has been made”
Read as: 'YES, WE DO MEAN IT THIS TIME’
