Materia System

[Rowyne]

Let Materia have its chance for a third time.

Its just as much a part of Final Fantasy as Crystals, Orbs and Magicite. The same way that Guardian Forces are summons, Edilons, Aeons, Avatars, and Primals are Summons.

I understand the point you're trying to make, but I'm actually saying something similar (just pointing to a different result). Final Fantasy incorporates different names for common elements depending on what's appropriate for the story. We've already laid down the groundwork with the term 'aetheryte'. I just don't think 'materia' fits into this scheme.

In FF 7 Materia was magical orbs that are placed in special slots on weapons and armor, and that sounds an awful lot like what we will be doing. Further in FF7 Materia are small spheres of crystallized energy, i do not see how that dose not fit in to the game. People are just hung up with seeing the name Materia again, when in reality i don't see the problem seeing as every game borrows terms like magic, and skill points. If the word is accurately used to describe something who cares if it was used in a past title.
