FF has been limping and surviving on brandname alone since the merger. FF13 may have moved forward in terms of graphics, but in terms of everything else we loved about the classic FFs it just disappoints. The gameplay is basically a rehash of FFX-2's(no surprise there as it seems to be the same team responsible), but limited your party-members to have pre-set gambits from FF12 depending on their class. FF11 and 14 should've just been kept out of the main single-player series and spun-off to their own FF ONLINE series. FF12 had a lot of potential at the start but became too tedious and MMO-ish for its own good. Not enough story and bad pacing.
@King9999 @unbentonslaught at least in FFX it felt like a living and seamless world with various cultures and towns you could stop over. FF13 was just throwing you in with a particular pair at a time while walking some boring and repetitive dungeon.
Instead of having to pause the game for a codec sequence, they could just place it as an inset with their face talking so as not to interrupt gameplay. That way you could keep moving around in the usual gameplay and not waiting for the talking heads to stop blabbing.MGS4 already did this in certain points where you could still hear Otacon talking through the codec while you were in action, but they still kept the stop-dead-in-your-tracks codec sequences now and then.
1. more original and enduring IPs that will make next-gen truly a leap not just in graphics but in gameplay as well.
2. more VITA cross-functionality/support3. make exclusives make really full use of the hardware, none of that they have to be equal crap from the xbox clause deal.
personally i wouldve settled for less than 60fps if it meant better looking characters (which you only look at 99% of the time and even zoom in at times). i was looking forward to this on my vita but now i guess i'll get the komplete edition on ps3 (and inevitably share game time with the upcoming tekken tag 2).
did you bring up whether they will make a vita version? crossplay and transfarring features would be awesome! pls make a follow-up interview with this in mind!
