Final Fantasy 7 Remake (PC/PS4) - March 3rd, 2020

[Artemicon]

Blitzball was easy and fun as hell but It became retardedly easy late in the game when you could get the al bhed goalie(don't remember name). Always a #-0 win.

[Uzor]

The only time I've ever lost a game was on my first playthrough.

[Yuri-G]

FF7 Remake Won't Use Luminous Engine

That makes now two big projects that SE is making to not use their own engine. KH3 went to Unreal 4. I'm guessing Luminous Engine is getting abandoned like their engine they created for 13 and 13-2?

White/Crystal engine was used a fair bit before they left it to rot after XIV 1.0. XIV ARR uses a branched version of the Luminous so it's not abandoned perse, but it's obvious they can't make actual games on it easily..they're too busy making cinematic engines lol.

Thanks for this - I think it's worthy enough to edit into the OP.

[Sho]

Hopefully they go to Unreal 4, and make a new engine (har har) for the cinematics.

I think you don't know what action RPGs are.

13 isn't one of them.

FF13 was a turn based RPG, the ATB was just very fast. It just didn't have character swap in battle which was annoying.

[kuronosan]

Weren't Crisis and DoC action?

[Elcura]

Yep.

Crisis is an action RPG (done...averagely) and DoC is a TPS (done...averagely).

It did have character swap... In the form of paradigm shifting

I get what you're saying here but you have to realize that this is neither technically nor functionally the same thing.
If you are inflicted with a status effect that 'your' particular character has no way to remove, you could swap to another to prioritize status removal in a game that would allow for character swap. You could also, in the case of FFX, swap that character out completely for a fresh one from the backline to deal with that sort of issue.
There's other situations where the difference between switching "roles" and switching "characters" is also pretty pronounced... but again, I see the joke.

FFXIII with character switching (and more AI control) would have been a more interesting game, I think.

[kuronosan]

I actually miss the system from X. It was perfect.

[Tyrath]

Being able to use everyone in my party was something I always wanted and FFX delivered.

[Kaslo]

I just would like to return to a huge cast of characters (like FFVI and FFIV)

I...would think they would use the same cast as FF7.

Like I suppose there's a chance you could only control Cloud exclusively, but who doesn't expect to see at least the basic cast of 7 with the chance of extras (like the Turks) or new characters?
