Yeah, I'm currently going through hard mode and leveling my weapons and materia and it's getting pretty clear that they won't be able to have everything carry over because you can get very OP. On the other hand, it would really suck (and make no sense) to start from scratch when Part II comes around. One solution would be a hard mode available from the start to people who want to carry over their Part I files (maybe breaking the damage and HP caps) and a regular mode that allows you to start relatively from scratch (maybe with levels and materia equivalent to what you'd have in the original at that point). |
They could also do a re-balancing of the stuff you carry over. Like level 50 in Part 2 means you start with stats representing the cap in place for that game (which would result in overall lower stats). You keep everything you had, but their effect is slightly different to go in hand with whatever tweaks they'll have in place for the second iteration of the battle system. I don't know, that's how I'd like them to do it, personally, but we'll see how they handle it in 2-3 years, or whenever they start giving relevant info about Part2.
