I'm sorry I haven't linked it yet, I've been a lot busy lately too.

I think that replayabiity is an extra important aspect on a FF mmo, as you have multiple classes to level up, you will replay the same content over and over, so this needs to be engaging ad not feel repetitive and tedious. I wonder how Yoshi P and the team tackled this, because the quest system, once you've finished all the quests... is moot and it's like it was never there, so I guess they'll have some ace in the sleeve for this.

Which combat? the original 1.0 with the stamina bar or the combat that Yoshi P implemented afterwards?

Yoshi P's, the way it was towards the end of 1.0. That worked nice and was distinctive enough from other games'. They should've expanded on that instead of going with all that standard BS they're so into now.

From what I see, what we are getting is a mixture of the Stamina bar system (TP limit), the Everquest/WoW fast paced system with a global cooldown (some skills will have their own CD's for sure), the Armory system from XIV and the positional combat from XI.

And I'm sure it will be pretty damn complex and fun.
