FFVII is overrated no matter how you look at it. For one it has a fanbase that never shuts up about it being "the greatest game ever made" and this shit has been going on almost 20 fucking years now. This alone makes FFVII one of the most overrated games in existence.
To add to this many of these people found the FF series and often RPGs as a genre with FFVII and have "firsties syndrome" decribed here...

...towards it and as a result see it as a perfect masterpiece that literally can do no wrong and invented everything in the JRPG genre. Good example of latter are all those people who actually believe that Aeris was the first character to permanently die in RPGs.
Also how come FFVII got all those sequels, prequels, spin-offs and that bullshit compilation if it is so underrated? If FFVII truly was underrated it woudn't have gotten any of these and no one but a handful of people would have given a slightest fuck about it's remake being announced.
Finally there are games like Ehrgeiz out there that are advertised only for having FFVII characters in it. Shit like this ONLY works with a retardedly popular and overrated game.
Then again you fags probably believe underrated means game you consider "objectively good" and not that has gotten way more praise than it actually deserved.
