The air ships tied into the FFT story which was actually tied into the FF9 story, that's my point if you go back far enough, the closest you can get to the origins of them is FF9, FF6 seemed to have the concept of flying ships as far as time line goes after FFT, granted I'm just observing the flow of time as far as the time ships goes.

Their is no real link between the FF's other than a few randoms like Cid and Cloud.

But the CC universe had nothing to do with main FF in anyway - now that they have ships it's like tieing it into the main FF universe.

All I hope is this one doesn't just toss summons and aeons at you without some kind of explanation.

The only other thing I've noticed is that I read the main guy could fly and that the game dealt in combat a lot around that aspect, but in the trailer combat looked Kingdom Heart's style but dulled down on combos and stuff.

I guess they abandoned inside gyroscope combat?

Yeah, the game looks pretty great from that trailer. SE are pretty tight lipped about their games until the next one is lined up to come out, from a marketing standpoint, or so says IGN.

From what we know (unless s-e have since changed their minds on the matter) Crystal bearers isn't going to have a multiplayer mode. Which is the only thing I can think of that disappoints me at the moment, seeing as the original game was made around being MP, and now we wouldn't have had to have 4 GBA's/Links to enjoy the game. 

They also said that the game has one 1:1 combat.

So, IGN had a little bit to say about TCB in their podcast.

Q: Crystal Bearers news ?
A: If its not at E3, we won't see it this year. Trickled news that there has been some problems

):

FUCKING BUMP!

This is the problem with showing your games off 2-3 years before release. They probably don't have any work done on it other than the plot, and that they do want to make one. I wouldn't be surprised to see this game after FFXIII release.

Why wouldn't they have work on the actual game? THe crystal chronicles team has been free ever since FFCC:RoF was released. Also I expect it to be released around the same time as FFXIII.

The game is possibly cancelled. It had a great concept, much like Project H.A.M.M.E.R.

What?  It's a Final Fantasy game...it's a bit more than a concept...

SE is always like this with their games...how much gameplay have you seen of FFXIII?  Oh, right, like 10 seconds maybe?

Sure, it's possibly cancelled...but I see no reason why they wouldn't come out and say it's cancelled.  I'm guessing they're just delaying and working slowly on it.
