Well it does matter here, mostly because of the tradition. BTW if Nomura was still director, we would definitely have a airship inspired by the millenium falcon. Tabata seems to give a shit though, so if we don't get it we can console ourselves thinking it was dropped for something prioritary, like more content. Also the game universe was first thought to be contemporary fantasy (so somewhere between traditionnal FF and TWEWY (Big margin ik)), thus a scifi or steampunk airship wouldn't make much sense. |
That would just be stupid though if they decided to drop it because they wanted to add more sidequests to an already huge world full of them. The airship is a necessity for the feeling of power and freedom at pivotal points in the FF series. Tabata said he wanted to surpass FF7, well first you have to get the basics and necessities down first.
They already showed airships of some kind dropping in to let soldiers off and fight you. They looked a little sci fi.
