Well... yes... You were always pressing X to hit.

Not on Xbox.


Are there really people who play Final Fantasy games on XBox?

Yes, but only in the states where it isn't banned.

ATB is still nothing more than a turn based system with shifted and sperate turns. FFXIII stretched the definition a bit and made it look more action packed but at its core it was still a standard ATB. As much as XII was a simple ATB.

No Final Fantasy ever was "press X to hit". First they're doing this and next thing they're tossing out the Tonberries.

i do lol.  Instead of X you press A which is pretty much presisng X



What's that video you're showing us? That isn't a Final Fantasy game.

Oh... It is? Hm... This is awkward.

Oh Kapi. You make me wanna come over there and just shake that cute little face. It's not a hack and slash game, we both know that and previews suggest as much. More TLS than FF I agree, but evolution is not a bad thing.

Will wait for the demo to make my own judgement.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

this actually looks really fun.
now I'm even more intrigued by this game

This is a good thing to me.



Tutorial lets you button smash, yes.



Wasn't that the entire point about it? Wasn't that what FF XIII versus was supposed to be?

What a "real" Final Fantasy. So "real" that it doesn't even need its signature battle system.


What's FF signature battle system ? you mean the turn based from 1-2-3,  simple atb from 4-6, job system from 5, atb with a twist from 7-8-9, turn based from x, real time move system from xii or weird atb from XIII ?

FF signature is to reinvent itself with every game.

ATB is still nothing more than a turn based system with shifted and sperate turns. FFXIII stretched the definition a bit and made it look more action packed but at its core it was still a standard ATB. As much as XII was a simple ATB.

That's exactly what ff used be. Now u'll have to dodge/parry in real time etc. If anything thy didn't toss anything out, they just added elements.

I just wanted to share this as well


Great post. I think FFXV is a natural evolution and I dont really see what else would work. I feel traditional turn based battles would be dismissed as being stale. Furthermore, FFXVs battlesystem is still unique and not a straight KH rip-off.



I predict that the Wii U will sell a total of 18 million units in its lifetime. 

The NX will be a 900p machine
