| Torillian said: But what MMO did you think FFXII took it's control scheme from? Because I would imagine it took alot from FFXI controls, which it seems fairly similar to when I play it. I'm just not sure you can count the FFXII control scheme as being taken from Western developers. Can't debate with you about MGS4 since I don't know enough about the subject though. |
Good point about FFXII. Once I think about it, it was under development long enough where WoW probably didn't influence it much. The game reminded me a lot of WoW, though. Not so much Everquest or earlier MMOs, though I didn't play Dark Age of Camelot or some of those other pre-WoW MMOs. My only experience is with WoW, SWG, and EQ.
MGS, though, looks a lot like Splinter Cell now. I can't think of a pre-SC game that used those controls, though there could have been a game or two that did. It's been awhile and my memory is kinda fuzzy.
