In his post he's referring to his expectations and personal definition as to what that term means.Tabata has said exactly the opposite. "It is still very much an action game".
This isn't KH though. This is FFXV, a different game.Man...so much complaining about non controllable party members from a lot of the people that praise the KH series. Can you wait to see how the game plays before complaining just to complain?
Tabata said it's still an ARPG.

Camera seemed... Type-0-ish.
Tabata wants to do something like this again every month if he can
Most action games like bayonetta and DMC have shit cameras at parts so not expecting a rpg company to make a good one lol
I must be playing a different series then. Most FF story revolves and evolves around the maincharacter. Without the hero, the journey wouldn't begin.
Everyone is there to support the main hero. The party is created because they want to go with the hero and help him.
I still don't understand how the ability to switch up Player 1 status relays that feeling of a party. You are still surrounded by other cast members even if you are in control of a different character or stuck with one character.
Sounds good, since the game is basically Type-0! lol
Just like Lightning! :3
It doesn't seem like that to me with all the deck stuff and really two button simplified gameplay. It more like simplified action game with strategic elements
So far I think Tabata is doing a fantastic job on damage control in this Q&A. He's addressing various question head on and not evading anything. He really has cleared up a lot of concerns for better or for worse.
- He says that the E3 gameplay battle footage was playable, but an earlier version. I believe he said you can still play the game on that level, but it was showing off more advanced moves and so on. I think he said it was a prototype concept that they are working towards in development.
- With regards to the "hold button for awesome" comments, he says that the defensive stance drains MP, so you can't just hold the button forever and be invincible. There are also more technical aspects of evasion which are more advanced. For attacking, you hold the button for basic combos, but there are also advanced action aspects with regards to timing and attacking in certain directions, or influenced by equipment.
- He confirms you can jump in the game. The battle system in FFXV is Active Cross Battle (AXB), and Noctis is the only playable character. You control Noctis because the entire battle system is built around him and how the other party members interact with him.
- He also talks about the the weapon switching too. Instead of active weapon switching during combat, it uses player settings prepared in advance. This is likely part of the gambit-like system he talked about before. The weapon used is automatic based on the conditions, but it sounds like the player has control over how those conditions are determined.
The new video was pretty good too. The game is still pretty far away, but I think he's making serious efforts to address concerns and get people excited for the game. It's really good PR compared to the normal stuff from S-E.

This isn't KH though. This is FFXV, a different game.

When is that?
When asked if the battle system is more like KH or Type-0, he actually evaded the question by saying that it's more like FFXV. He seems pretty adamant that they're doing something very different and new here.
I think he said November but I am not 100% sure.
When is that?
I'm aware of that. My point is that you front need character switching for a game to be enjoyable and that people need to hold their judgement for the final product.
Do you look at someone painting and say midway through their work "OMG, that line is too thick! Ughhhhh this color is wrong! This is horrible! This needs more blah blah blah"
Wait for the finished product.

Them in the car looking outward. So character switching is out but we get a good playable main that's fully fleshed out instead. I'm ok with this.what meme?
Nintendo handled theirs well.Meme has jumped the shark.
