If there's one thing ARR could do without imho it's gigantic anime swords, it just does not fit at all with the overall game.

a more appropriate video.

The hard-on for FF7 is getting a little distracting. I really want this game to be its own thing, not a bunch of homages.

Who cares? If you haven't notice that FF14 lore isn't the only kind of lore in this game anymore.. it will home parts of the history of Final Fantasy... AS WANTED BY FANS... so Stop asking for things and then saying no to them.

You are assuming "fans" all think alike.

Other Final Fantasys, including Final Fantasy XI, show us you can have references without drowning out the world with them.

Giant swords don't fit the theme of a Final Fantasy game? I don't get that impression at all. This is the same game with 40-year-old toddlers wearing subligars, moggles downing hard liquor, small children with horns, gigantic muscular white mages, and giant robot mechs. Yet when put together, Hydaelyn is an original world in itself with its own charms compared to the unoriginal, Tolkienesque settings from games like Dragon Age.

I doubt giant anime 2-handed swords will make this game's setting any more wonderfully ridiculous than it already is. Wonderfully ridiculous indeed...

I don't really have any issues with FF7 esque moves + weapons... i was thinking that maybe it was a soldier > dark knight using the buster sword and omnislash V2. Looking at that picture though it is definitely a Dragoon... Not sure what to make of it entirely but i'm not happy if thats what they think a Dragoon using a limit break should look like. Where are the dragon themes? Jumping or lances or something atleast relevant to Lancer/Dragoon itself. I guess it is a aerial attack so it has that for it...

As a Dragoon, I don't understand why we get a buster sword omnislash. I'm not hating, it just seems weird!
