Well, wackery is a byproduct of what they've done anyway. But I think this is preferable to Zack being a side story isolated in his own universe. But I've discussed that to death already.

LOL, basically.

I'll rephrase: playing in one timeline (either with the main group switching into the new timeline, or a merger of timelines). By killing off the main group they allow the main group to exist in this timeline with Zack alive. This is how people moving between timelines or two timelines merging...

I'm presuming it killed them. I always thought it would be weird to have two timelines, this gives us the one. Cloud however... erm... 2 Clouds potentially? The last part of the trailer,

Just saw news on this. Well, it doesnt surprise me. I always thought that if they wanted to tap into the Battle Royale market they should try to penetrate it with something like a Fortnite collab.

While it would be slightly amusing, it would suck. As would playing Remake to OG. Fake outs are cheap writing and not really where I want this to be. If they're doing this then I expect them to have great new storytelling ideas they want to experiment with, not great new marketing ideas they...

I think he is in the timeline with Cloud and Co. I don't think it makes sense to have Cloud and Co in one timeline and Zack in another. It just convolutes the story. We don't know what the structure of the FF7 universe is right now, and whether there are multiple timelines or not, we don't know...

A certain amount of ludo narrative dissonance is acceptable. As an action RPG, limiting the party formation possibilities and playstyle options is quite undesirable. I don't quite understand why character dialogues and events while exploring areas becomes a problem when other games deal with...

While I'm sure the party will be plot forced at points due to story logic and in some of the more cinematic battles, I expect we will use the PHS most of the time to swap party members in and out. That said, if they're changing how things play out, I really appreciated how FF6 utilised more of...

It isn't, but when an IP goes from top dog to middle of the road, it's often indicative that it's failed to innovate adequately, or fallen into being too formulaic. Which I think FF generally has, and thats been to its detriment.

Yes, thats exactly what I'm referring to. In fairness, maybe if you haven't played that game it might not be quite so obvious. But the visual ques are there. Anyway, thats Alphen from Tales of Arise. Obviously I wasn't referring to fidelity, Tales has a more cartoony aesthetic. But the concept...

FF14, sure. But generally, SE isn't in the position it was with FF and other studios are outperforming them in a way I don't think they should be. For example, for studios pushing the industry to new heights, Naughty Dog are really where it's at - or at least, it feels like it. In terms of...

I find myself agreeing with both of you here. FF6, 7, 9, 10 and if you like MMO's 14; are on a different level to most of the series. Which is fine, I don't expect a series as long-running as FF to hit the ball out of the park every time. That's just not realistic. However, I think as SE have...

This gives me some faith. However, only Clive being playable is really disappointing.
