Hopes for Remake & Rebirth (gameplay/combat)

I get the feeling this is going to be for extra large sized enemies as a way of getting them to drop to the floor so you can fully attack them.
The blue bars do seem like "charges" to use for moves, whether Limits or otherwise. Instead of time bars it could be that you have to attack in a rhythm a la Crisis Core rather than full mashing?

I thought that, but the only thing that seems to be moving during action in the trailer is the yellow bar. It looks like Barret's goes ever so slightly up during his "take the loooooad off ya shoulders" bit. Which would make me think the lower bar is MP.
Really wish we say them using more magic in this trailer. Then we could really pin it down.

I have to say, I am surprised (in general) about the combat. I might be mis-remembering, but I was pretty sure that they were adamant about pursuing an Advent Children style to the combat ... but there's been little to no flying around and supermaning.
Though having said that, they could be saving those for the WEAPON fights.

I don't remember them ever saying anything about pursuing Advent Children combat in this. Maybe in the first Dissidia game they said something like that?
Had a search. I think this is what I was remembering:
"If the thought of something different-but-kinda-the-same brought to mind the 2005 film Final Fantasy 7: Advent Children, you're not too far off from Nomura's own thinking. Nomura stated that the team will be looking to the movie - which Nomura also directed - for visual references and inspiration, but that he and his team "don’t intend on utilising the 3D models of Advent Children as is because, well, it’s a different technology, and it’s actually been almost ten years since Advent Children was first released." "

"Instead, inspiration for the changes to combat will be drawn from Advent Children, the film that acted as a sequel to the game."

That could mostly be mistranslation ... but that's where the original thought I had came from. I'm pretty sure that there was also an interview during Advent Children as well where it was stated that this was really what the battles from the VII universe were like. This is why I thought they were taken the battles in this direction with the Remake.

There was definitely a comment about the Bahamut battle in Advent Children reflecting what the Weapon battles from the original game would have looked like.

Given battle movement in FFXV, I would be shocked if characters like Cloud, Yuffie, Cid, and Vincent at the very least don't get airborne.
I fully hope Yuffie gets wall runs, and can get hidden items.
I could see if playing with Yuffie involves lots of her jumping around just as parts of her attack animations, even if you don't have control over the jumping.

Are you making your own video? I was just thinking today that I hope to see your work again.
