I don't think it will be digital only. They said they could not fit the whole game in one release so that means one episode is literally as big as one entire game. It will not be like the walking dead or life is strange.  Also read the latest interviews and info. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1152062

I didn't have time to read the whole thread so I missed that. So, could it possibly mean they could do something like an annual release, with the game coming out on disc but the story broken up across multiple releases? Kinda like how the original PS1 release was on multiple discs, but this time the discs are released like a year apart?

As for the gameplay, are they trying to create a hybrid action/turn-based system? Is that the gist of it?

An annual release is a possibility if they make each episode as big as one full game. They're also adding more content and possibly including the story from the other ff7 games so that will contribute a lot to each episode. The original game already contained up to 20 hours or so of content in disc one alone and that's with you not being able to fully explore every thing.

I'm still confused on the battle system to be honest. They said ATB is still present but in a different way and the actions will be as fast as Dissidia but will not be too chaotic or too much like an action game or something. We still need further info on everything pretty much. Hopefully this upcoming Jump Festa in Japan(Square will be showing off FF7:R) will shed more light into these matters.
