Dio Brando 5,810 Posted February 18, 2017 Cloud and Barret having 1600+ from the beginning?

Dio Brando 5,810 Posted February 18, 2017 It's only temporary HUD I know since the game is still VEEEEEEEEEEEEERY early in development I'm just expressing future concerns since in FFXV when it was versus there was a plan to let switch between characters mid battle but then it got changed I hope VII remake doesn't become a copy of XV's battle system since XV sold a lot 2 The 13th Kenpachi and Official Bowtie Artist reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It has an ATB bar too if you look at the bottom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cyberos000 33 Posted February 18, 2017 Nah this looks way better than 15. It has an ATB bar too if you look at the bottom Hope you're right. Don't know about the ATB bar, tho. Maybe it'll end up feeling like FF 13. 1 The 13th Kenpachi reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The 13th Kenpachi 4,279 Posted February 18, 2017 (edited) Nomura wanted to show a video of FF7R but he wasn't allowed according to Nova Crystallis “This is the first boss in the game. It’s [the Guard] Scorpion and the scenery will be partly destructible. Sorry, I asked to show a video, but the company refused. The menus are not yet final, but I will talk more on another occasion.” http://www.novacrystallis.com/2017/02/spanking-new-kingdom-hearts-iii-final-fantasy-vii-remake-screenshots-revealed-magic-2017/ Edited February 18, 2017 by The 13th Kenpachi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EndOfTheWorld 23 Posted February 18, 2017 This is going to be neat. I just hope they keep the optional bosses Ruby Weapon and Emerald weapon in it. Also glad to see that they seem to stick with the Materia system. 1 The 13th Kenpachi reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hero of Light XIV 2,381 Posted February 18, 2017 Alright, so they have removed DEFEND and SUMMON from the HUD. There is also an ATB bar under Cloud's name Looks as though it's taking a page from KH2 and might have the option of using the shoulder buttons to go to another command menu. So maybe Defend and Summon have been moved to that? If not, I could easily see them making Defend get relegated to a button like in KH and Summon being part of the Materia menu. In any case, it's looking more and more promising. 1 The 13th Kenpachi reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Transcendent Key 12,109 Posted February 19, 2017 Thank you for showing this to us, Master Kenpachi! Wow, this Remake definitely looks stunning, and this is just a taste of what we'll see! It definitely has flare to it! Since Nomura said he wanted to show a video, I'm sure he'll end up showing it later down the line! Perhaps at E3? 1 The 13th Kenpachi reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well now they've got the materia menu actually in place, but in the OG game you don't get your first summon until after you leave Midgar, when you're the in the chocobo ranch and that it is only the chocobo summon... This game seems Midgar centric so I don't think summons will even show up . They'll also be too confined. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The 13th Kenpachi 4,279 Posted February 21, 2017 I hope it won't be a ff15 clone :ph34r: We all do . I really want the ATB system back but I don't think it will return now. I want FF16 to use the ATB system though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joker 1,560 Posted February 21, 2017 I think summons will be introduced early tho. Not this early like in these screenshots but if the games to be one full sized game but cover only a part of 7's story, yeah Id think Summons will come in much earlier this time around 1 The 13th Kenpachi reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hero of Winds 2,576 Posted February 21, 2017 We all do . I really want the ATB system back but I don't think it will return now. I want FF16 to use the ATB system though.Why? The ATB system is garbage. The ATB system exists here, but a lot of the combat will be action based. It's not a system of ATB select option. It's ATB and action. So imagine if KH kept what it was but added the ATB. Basically its an awkward hybrid of two battle systems and the video would have been nice as a screenshot gives no idea on how this will work. 1 The 13th Kenpachi reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How it worked in 12 and 13 was so good. Better than button mashy KH combat. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Better than button mashy KH combat.How it worked in 13 was part of the reason a lot of people hated the game. This is the first I've ever heard of people liking it. Lightning Returns had the best combat system in the 13 trilogy. It wasn't super focused on ATB and you could strategize quick combination of multiple attacks. If you think Button Mashing is all games like Kingdom Hearts has to it, you're playing it wrong. That's like going into a fighting game and thinking button mashing is the best way to win that.
