That makes me sad, back when it was called Versus XIII you could play as any of the characters, each with a unique fighting style. Gladiolus had huge buster swords, Ignis had a katana, and Prompto had a gun with a 3rd person shooter perspective. It was ambitious but also awesome. But I guess some concessions had to be made to finally get the game finished. Still sucks though, just killed some of my hype for the game : ( |
That was one aspect of FF XIII I really disliked, I'm disappointed to see it continue in XV. I get that the combat system is different, but would it really be that hard to enable switching control to a different member of the party?
XII was a good example of this setup. You could pick which party member you wanted to control, and set up AI behavior to use different tactics. You only got a Game Over when your entire party was defeated.
