Famitsu/Dengeki: Hands-on w/ α & Future β Plans

[Kirb]

I'm going to guess that there will be restrictions as to how much you can place in one stat in relation to all of the other stats.

Holy shit, I was tiring not to get to excited for the game, but the way they have leveling up seems bad-ass. Reminds me of FF10,12,13, very excited this see how it turns out.
Thanks for the info Elmer, very good information.

I'm not sure how I feel about this.

On one hand, I hate it.
On the other hand, I find the aspect of putting everything into LUK and strolling into end-game being all "Sup. Max luck here, mad drops follow. You -need- me bros" enticing.

Luck is for critical hits and things like that. It is not for drops at all.

Every game ever that has a luck stat works like this. From Secret of Mana to Ragnarok Online.

Where did they say luck would have any bearing on crits?

Millionaire's desk didn't do anything for drops either.

Didn't stop it from selling.

The illusion of increasing drops is enough to get people to err on the safe side and go for it.

stat points. hmmm. i like it but idk, too much freedom, people may not know where the best place to put them is

That's what i love about it. Be the first to figure out a decent build. Cookie cutter builds and everyone doing the same thing is boring. I like it, i like it a lot.

This is how gauge is spelt, Elmer

Great info, always appreciate your effort~

lol, thanks I'm retarted.

They didn't but come back and check with me once some tests have been done on the stats and you will see.

I can't wait to see all the pretty female Miqo'te in their undergarments. There's a head, body, hand, leg, feet and waist but where's the rings, earrings and neck?

[Kirb]

I don't see many equipment options, the undergarments thing looks interesting though. I see a head, body, hand, leg, and waist but where's the rings, earrings, neck and feet??

Might be mistaken but is the feet slot being blocked by that blue window?

I edited my post, noticed in the second image that there was indeed a feet option.

We'll be able to reset our stat points in the final version, i believe so nothing to worry about. It depends though because there will most likely be restrictions on it. I'm really happy that we will have a choice, customization and uniqueization is spectacular.

[viperlasson]

Wow, picking your own stats to upgrade on a level up. Thats some extreme customization @_@

[Elmer the Pointy]

Feet is blocked, but most likely there. For "undergarment," only -garment was technically visible, so it's somewhat a guess based on there being an undershirt.

12 equipment slots seems a bit on the low side imo

This. Hope there's a few more added. :<

[Kirb]

That combat log reminds me of EXP and JP from Tactics, which is just fantastic.

[Melion]

Thank you for this Elmer ^_^

[SamanosukeShiva]

it's like ragnarok online but you can job change <3

I wonder if when your physical skill levels up, you get a base stat increase and X number of bonus points to spend on any attributes you choose. That way you could potentially level your physical skill up to a max of say 50, and without spending any bonus points, you could have a base attribute of a level 50 character, and then any additional bonus points you have would go towards specializing your character.

For Example: Level up to 2 and you get STR,LUK,CHR+1, HP+35, MP+25, and 3 bonus points to go along with it that you could spend on any stat you deem fit.

If not, i can totally see some people ending up with 99 STR and w/e the base dex ends up being.

[Vuitton]

The only thing I don't like stat allocation is messing up or wanting to change later. Anyone remember RO years ago where people basically had to remake their character every time they wanted to change their stats?

This type of thing is only good if you can pay (in-game currency or something) to reset your stats so you can re-do them when you need to.
