Preset switching might be even more interesting, tbh.

If you switch during Ravage, you switch to another Ravage weapon slot.

Do that for Crush, Vanquish, Counter, Descend as well and you have a ton of variables that would depend on what part of the combo chain you actually switch at.

Hopefully it's mid-combo.
 

Months later and I'm still trying to figure out what the fuck that is.

yeah, if it's mid combo then it makes the combat significantly deeper. If not, it's honestly not much more than a convenience.
 
So what if you have some OP weapon

Set 1: OP weapon -> X -> X
Set 2: X -> OP weapon -> X
Set 3: X -> X -> OP weapon

clutch switches to have OP weapon for all of crush/ravage/vanquish

I assume this won't be possible lol
 
Kind of disappointed with the Chocobo theme. A bit too... basic? Expected something a little more special from Shimomura.
 
Recap of info:

Regis
- Regis is older looking because of having to protect Lucis with the magical barrier.
- Used to fight with Cor and Cid
- Has suit underneath the king outfit (?)
- Regis's wife is dead

Luna
- Oracle/can speak to gods of the world. Youngest one yet.
- This allows her to let Tenebrea, her country, to be some what governed. Nifhielm still under control though.
- Her assistant is named Gentiana and is important.
- Made a promise with Noctis at a young age. Promise unknown.

Gameplay
- Can ride chocobos. They're fast and can drift.
- Ariel combat
- Arbringer has its own gauge
- Airships uncertain for final release. If they can't do it then they'll try to add it in as DLC. It'll be free.
- Chocobos can be buffed when camped. Faster sprinting and higher jumping.
- Weapon switching. Limited to 4 decks.
- Noctis does not have a primary weapon and a sub weapon like the other party members do. Instead Noctis can use the sub weapon as a primary weapon instead.
- There will be some stealth segments

Other
- Fishing is a mini-game. You can use the fish you catch as food for when you camp which will give you buffs.
- World is seamless except for certain story areas.
- Car can travel off road but limited.
- Alternate costumes. Not sure if only as DLC or there will be some in the main story. We also don't know if we'll be able to equip them on the fly or if it's limited to story segments.
- No moogles
- Gilgamesh not in. Could be considered for DLC

Anything I missed? Or something I have wrong?
 

LUNASTELLALUNASTELLALUNSELLATUNLA

People keep complaining about Luna(she's a great design) when its actually this redesign that suffered the most.

Its not a bad design per se ,but it just feels so diluted.There's no visual punch to this at all.This is especially obvious when the previous was much stronger.

I hope these badasses didn't change cuz these are perfect designs right here.

This is more upsetting than Stella because at least his character still exists. The new design is so boring, ugh.

Yeah new Regis is a clear low point in the cast(visually)

The rest of the cast has distinctive visual flair ,but he clearly has none imo.

If there's anything striking about him,its how bland he is.

Disagree. New Regis looks a lot better and has a lot more presence than the previous one. That badass beard...
 
I don't mind New Regis' overall design, it's just his face that's a bit of a generic step back. He also doesn't look genetically related to Noctis anymore, which optimistically I suppose could be a plot point.

He doesn't really resemble his son either, so....

I agree with you. I think Regis has a really cool design now. (And kind of falls in line with my theory long ago about the crystal aging him every time he uses it's power)

Also if people are calling this design Game of Thrones "generic" then we need to have a serious talk about XIV's designs and it's story.

Edit:

You know, that happens. Right?

I look very little like my dad except for some small things (eyes and brow line), but most of my facial features I got from my mother (rounder face, brown hair, etc.).
 
Yeah, I actually don't mind new Regis. Don't see why so many people seem to have a problem with him.
He just looks.. i don't know kinda of off. Like he doesn't fit in with the rest of the cast. It feels like to me that he belongs in a different game.
 
Well, Gentiana is an exciting name for sure.

Regis be what I imagine to be a very old fashioned king with dem new clothes.

They didn't talk about Chocobo breeding?

Is that so obvious they didn't even talk about?
 
The new design is a lot more generic than the one that was shown in a trailer to us 9 months ago.

They just basically gave him a full beard and aged him up a bit. And gave him more special clothes. I understand if you like the previous design more, but I don't see how this is more generic at all.
