| Nem said: In response to your previous post. I disagree. Auto-attack was all i needed. Heal paradigm and tank paradigm. Got through everything until the last open area in the big planet where i finally gave up out of boredom. I had fallen asleep twice while playing it. Now, as for your point on the post i'm quoting and other people i have to say you have completely backwards. Do you find FF7 boring? If you do, the you probably aren't one of the people that clamored for a remake for years and years. The new FF is FFXV. FF7 is a classic game that has its loyal fanbase. This game should be aimed at the people who love it. It should be as much as possible the same game taking advantage of new sound and graphics technology, maybe even voice acting. But to completely make it a game in the line of FFXIII and FFXV is to disrespect its legacy. Regardless of how you feel about turn-based, turn-based is what this game is. To make it ARPG is to no longer be making a remake of FF7. |
Auto-attack didn't do it for me and it sure as hell won't do it for a lot of others seeing as how I was one of the more seasoned RPG gamers that even had hurdles on EASY mode ...
FFXIII took way more strategy than the last couple FF games and it also discouraged players from grinding too to make it more balanced ... (In fact I actually think that one of the main reasons why FFXIII is such a turn off is because it's harder than the average FF game since many would desire to be overly overpowered in a decent amount of time rather than finding themselves only been able to scrape by when halfway through the game.)
I do not find FFVII boring if anything it's one of my top 10 favourite games of all time and maybe even top 5 but even I know of it's dated mechanics and technical limitations too and I would most certainly not let it fly today when my standards are much higher today. I certainly did not make cries to try and get the remake like many others did but that does not mean I did not have a desire for it but Square should sell to new customers when you look at a franchise like mario trying to do just that to sustain itself ...
Why can't the game garner BOTH ?! Getting new people AND old fans isn't hard when it is the latter who will easily settle while the former is harder to appeal to. How would FFXIII's battle system be disrespectful for FFVII when they have more similarities than differences ? Just because it matches the original less doesn't mean it isn't FFVII when the original vision for it belongs to it's CREATORS and NOT it's first release ...
Turn-based has had it's time to shine for 4 generations STRIAGHT already. Turn-based isn't popular on consoles anymore so it's time to get with the program otherwise SE will find themselves in a harder spot since staying true to the shrinking original fanbase will get them nowhere ...
