| artur-fernand said: I really dislike this whole "not an FF game" debate. People project a lot of things into the next FF, everyone has an "ideal" FF in their minds, and the next person thinks that would be the worst FF game ever because of the same reasons. Final Fantasy is not about being turn-based or action-based, that's secondary. To me, it's about standing out at every aspect - a likeable cast of characters, an engaging plot, amazing soundtrack, and a fun battle system, regardless of being turn-based or not. FF's battle systems have always stood out among other jrpgs. Even if you don't like XIII's system, it's undeniable it's pretty unique. Saying FFXV will not be a "proper" FF game regardless of its quality just because is an action-rpg, sounds almost insulting to the producers of the game to me. And then you mention Type-0, which is also in real-time and whatnot =P |
I know what you mean but one of the things I see as FF is steampunk. 13 was not steam punk it was just sci-fi, so not FF. But there are things that I see as FF and that have been aspects that define an FF game over others, the gameplay, story and things can change but the basics are the same. Self contained battles, ATB or variation of, summons and magics (with correct names). I don't mind changes as 12, while moving from many traditions as it was set in Invalice, is such a great game.
... btw, I'm serious on steampunk. 13 failed so bad there.
Hmm, pie.
