[Hudson]

Turn-based RPG.

Turn-based RPG.

Just watch the Tokyo Game Show gameplay footage. You'll be eating those words in no time at all.

Not if its turn based in the sense im thinking of. Turn based combat should be thrown away in all games.

Not if it looks this good.

Don't call it turn-based just yet. Even though the demo had turn-based combat in it, Sakaguchi, before TGS has repeatably said that the game will have a different system than turn-based combat. Two major key features in the combat have been unrevealed and will most likely totally change the combat around based on interviews.

It's not turn-based, but it IS menu-driven. It's cinematic. Not hack-and slash, not turn-based, but it's like a combat system made for QTEs.

 

[Jerry]

Turn-based RPG.

...And now I can completely disregard the game. At least I'm not having high hopes on another 360 game yet to come out.

 

[WhatsHisFace]

It's not turn-based.

 

[Benstamania]

Even if it was...who cares? I enjoy turned based RPGs.

 

[WhatsHisFace]

I do because turn-based RPGs suck. This one is menu-driven. Not turn-based.

 

[Jerry]

Same boring bull****. Different name.

 

[WhatsHisFace]

Actually, it's not.

 

[Delusive]

I guess with this game we won't be taking turns attacking, this game will have a more action-oriented gameplay but with menus, is that right WHF?

 

[WhatsHisFace]

That's the way it seemed from the TGS demo, but I was watching some more gameplay videos and...

...our fears are confirmed. Not only is it turn-based, but there are RANDOM BATTLES TOO!!!!

I don't care the game looks orgasmic and I'm getting it.

I saw those videos (I knew about both the turn-based battle and random battles from previews and video) but I'm going by Sakaguchi's word. He said that the system is a different system and that two key features have been left out of the game. That could totally change the gameplay system, it may not be turn-based at all, if it does resemble a turn-based system, it HAS to be different enough to not be considered it, based on what Sakaguchi has said.

As for random battles, a game trying to blend cinematics with gameplay seems like it shouldn't have random battles so I'd wait on that too, the battle system, I believe, is only like 10% done.

I have since then...and I'm not eating those words...the graphics may be awesome...but turn-based isn't my thing...and it's not realistic...
