way better looking fight than the first gameplay vid in my opinion :/ not as close but still

THATS HOW FF10'S FINAL FIGHT SHOULD HAVE BEEN!!!

Yeah that was definitely inside Sin. And the music from the opening chaos scenes was playing.

Tidus vs Jecht > O. Knight vs CoD

That 1 vid made tidus cool to me.

you are already looking at difficulty? that is a little odd...

The gameplay mechanics impressed me even more, more open than I thought to be honest. After I saw Tidus jump to the other platform, I went "whoa"

This game is getting impressive indeed. Hopefully it has some story...

Dude its FINAL FANTASY.

Every FF has some sort of convoluted story. This will have one too.

And you need a story background to beat FF characters up with other FF characters? Heck, I bought Ehrgeiz just for that! AND ITS STORY WAS WEAK!!!

I thought so too, it almost seems as if when one gets hurt, the other absorbs the HP. at the end, I am guessing that is just for extra bonus points of something.

Yes, of course it will have a story, but will it be a good one. People will be thinking like you in that since it is Final Fantasy, that it will have this amazing story. But fighting games like this rarely have a good story at all, even Soul Caliber and Street Fighter (the game) have only barely average stories (and that is being modest).

I would love to be proved wrong, but do not expect a tremendous story here, because more than likely you will be disappointed...

Did I say "amazing story"? No. I said convoluted.

I dont need no story to kill tidus with Squall. Or Ultimecia with Sephiroth.

From what i saw, the numbers toward the middle, below the hp bar determine characters actual health, and rarely actually go up or down. whereas the bigger numbers to either side that constantly change are based on how many hits/certain combos toward the other person. the higher that number, the more powerful a different type of attack becomes, one which inflicts damage to the actual health # instead of the 'brave' meter. I'm guessing that the increased brave meter numbers increases the damage of the attacks exponentially or there wouldn't be a point in stocking so much of it up for the final blow during the end of the video. I may be wrong, but if i am right, this can make for some really long and entertaining battles, because you are battling the other person not only to decrease hp, but to get to the point where you CAN decrease hp, meaning that if two people are evenly matched, the brave meter would constantly move up or down based on who had the upper hand, but nobody's health would move until one of them were to expend the brave points as damage (which would probably put them at a disadvantage)

However, to keep these battles from being never-ending, the limit breaks would come into play. based on the bars on the left and right side of the screen. they fill up from attacks landed on the other person, or the powerup-like things that tidus picked up. clearly, these inflict damage to the actual health, but it seems that first they build up the brave points, then expend them in one massive blow. This would probably keep limit breaks from being way too powerful, because if the other person had more brave points than the one using the limit, it wouldn't do nearly as much damage as it did to Jecht in the video (noticing tidus' huge advantage of brave points when he used the limit, it just made it overkill xD).
