It's clearly still early days with the project but we push a little hard for any more concrete details on the more action-orientated gameplay that has been rumoured. "We don't want to create a classic menu driven RPG here," he explains. "We're moving along lines much closer to Kingdom Hearts' action game system. The only instruction I've given the designers so far is to look closely at third-person perspective shooters - not in terms of game controls but rather in trying to work out how to create a similar kind of tension.
"With previous systems we've always had a great problem in trying to create a seamless environments. Field space has always been limited and loading often interrupts the flow of play. In this game our aim is to eliminate all obvious loading and to create an unlimited field. I want somebody to be able to shoot at you from within a house and for battles to move from outside to inside fluidly."
Final Fantasy Versus XIII, as with its bedfellow, the mainline thirteenth game in the series, remains an unknown quantity. What's clear is that Nomura is deeply excited about the project and intends to move the series, and possibly gaming in the wider sense, into new territory. Few developers have the same access to artists, designers and coders of the calibre or numbers as Square-Enix. Additionally, with Sony likely desperately bankrolling both of the PlayStation 3 FFXIII games to keep them exclusive to the platform, it is going to be extremely interesting to see how Nomura uses these resources to bring our world and his together under the Final Fantasy banner.
Just finished reading it -- an interesting article, but unfortunatly we gain no new details besides a confirmation that FFVXIII is still in its early stages.
