Has anyone else seen the trailers for this game? It could easily, hands down, be the best FF game to date. Although FF7, FF8, and FF10 (and personally FF12) were all great, this game takes Square Enix to a whole new level... It just looks incredible, and the NON TURN BASED COMBAT. YES.
It also looks like your party members have assisted kills and stuff? Looks sick
Also, teleporting on the main character + walking on walls basically!?!?!? Talk about amazing! And modern environment, cars and buildings and guns! I've never been more excited for a game
And coverage around walls and corners looks so bonkers awesome! And it looks like you can switch between swords mid combat AND MID COMBO for different stats and effects? Whaaaat
Waitwaitwaitwaitwait! They're ditching turn based combat?? I don't know how I feel about that...

I understand your worries, but look deep in your heart. You know this is best
Lol yeah I'm pretty stoked for them ditching it. I love it in the older games, and I think it's had it's place and time in FF, but I think that time is over (and should have been over in ff13... >.>)
Modern gaming has simply developed beyond it at this point. And I understand it's an homage to the older series, but it's just amazing to watch the character zip around the battlefield and sides of buildings, taking out enemies and launching the next assault by throwing his sword and teleporting to it instantly and keeping a combo chain. That would have looked terrible in Turn Based Time, but in Real Time? Just stunning
Also, piloting tanks in the middle of battle, switching characters mid battle, and AIMING DOWN A SCOPE OF A GUN then firing (like bethesda games) mid battle are all INCREDIBLE. I'm so in awe. It's automatically at least getting a 3.5/5 stars from me and I've never played it. With the stuff they're implementing, they would have to literally purposefully bomb the rest of the game to make it even an average game. But right now, Square Enix in my opinion has seriously stepped up their game, and know how to please their audiences now.
Sidenote: In the trailer there is a piano piece in A minor, and it sounds a lot like the Kingdom hearts 2 song. It's beautiful
I mean, I'm going to be buying it regardless haha. When's the release date?
It's a TBA Dec 31 2014, and they said not until at least post March 2015. We are probably looking at around a year
On what systems?
The trailers came out before the PS4, so it all says for PS3. But I'm sure it's been made for PS4. Other than that they haven't announced it yet . Most likely Xbox One as well
Ok.
