So the big one was not limit gauge after all. I still think it's ATB.
Ohhh, maybe not versus XIII after all?

it still sounds like Steve Burton to me

They look about the same as they did in the battle scenes (aside from the fidelity). Ridiculously oversized and impractical weapons, a talking animal, and giant teddy bear thing with a cat on top. It looked like anime silliness then and it does so now. I'm far from a big anime fan myself, but isn't that part of what made 7 what it was? Increasing the production values shouldn't mean they can't keep their same over-the-top aspects.

Looks like you can only do so many attacks before the bar next to the character name turns red. To me it looks like a mix of XIII and KH.

Also, I don't understand people who are on this gaming forum and are complaining about the framerate. Like...do people not even have the slightest grasp of game development and the timeline involved with Q/A?
rage mechanic?

Yes the big gauge appears to be ATB and the gauge on the right is the Limit Break. In the trailer you can see the big (ATB) gauge filling up.
Example : No Mans Sky is "console debut" on PS4, will come later on PC or at the same day.

In the trailer the bar increases a little each time Cloud hits an enemy with an attack. Probably a variation of the Command Bar system introduced in Birth by Sleep? Basically a charge bar which builds as you use normal attacks and when it's full you either advance into a new combat style form or you execute a finisher.

Yes, they should have faithfully recreated the terrible combat of the original instead.

No matter how cool this trailer was (and it was cool...) This is still 1% of the game
I'm almost a little afraid that they are going full 3D with it, because FF7 really was a fuckin massive world, and all the areas they're going to have to render and all the people and side things to explore. This game is going to take forever for them to finish if ever.
Square's A-Team is working on this, and Xenoblade X I think proves that a massive, beautiful open world is possible, and they had far less resources than Squeenix.
I think this could be something seriously amazing.
Cool, I'm glad this game's pandering to the "I'll watch the cutscenes on YouTube" crowd.
I will take this over old PS1 version nonetheless, don't know how i am compelled to dislike this when i can take a better looking game to experience the plot of FF7 for the first time than the terribly translated other outdated version. You could also consider them different games entirely then, and argue to me that the original is more worthwhile but i am not interested as it stands.

Well, I think Cloud looks perfect.

God damn this looks so so good, glad their changing the Combat to be more of a ARPG personally.

Yeah I guess so. I first thought it could be "inverse ATB", you can hit until it's full and goes red (to cooldown).
I know ATB doesn't mean that, but I can't say it better.
What's most intriguing is whether we can play any character at any time or if they will be limited to selected segments of the game. Hopefully the former. Playing as ninja Yuffie will be awesome.
I hope the English voiceover is placeholder...It didn't seem great. Hopefully PC version gets both languages.

How so? This game has combat and exploration, after all?

What was the date when FF7's combat became terrible?

Well I think this time around the "ATB bar": will give you access to abilities that require resources to use.
That bar and the limit break bar are actually separate.
When was Grandia released?
This is really what I was hoping the remake would be. It looks like a wonderful mix of old and new. The characters look great, the combat shows a lot of promise and things are super familiar without feeling like a rehash.
Ever since the cast of 7 has had voices, I've preferred the Japanese actors. I'd really prefer if this had the option for the Japanese cast. That said, the English VA wasn't terrible and the Wedge dialogue was suitable dorky.
I'm very, very happy with what they showed today.

It's this. You see the bar full at one point and Cloud does a bigger attack at that time.
I give up. Have you actually seen Advent Children? In what way do they look alike?
...but that AC Cloud...

Exactly how I imagined the remake in my head. Nomura you da man!

I'm pretty sure it was. Though he usually does a deeper voice for Cloud.
The VA in the trailer was miles ahead from their FFXV stuff. So fingers crossed it's not the same guys doing it.

Sad part is the wait, at least 2 years.
To be quite honest, I thought it had aged poorly. 100% cheevo'd the Steam version.
And just for a yardstick comparison w.r.t. my opinion on things, also 100% cheevo'd Grandia 2 when the Steam version released and THAT one aged really well, OP final moves aside.
Yes you're right. I didn't realise that. I looked at the trailer again and there's an instance (at 1:14) in which the gauge decreases.

We knew it was going to be a new combat system. It just so happens it is Vs.XIII's... which is awesome.
