dev1037 New Battle Effects

[Zkieve]

Hmm, I see 36 topics on the "In Development" forum as of right now, some of them containing larger, some smaller changes. If this is what we get for a month or two, sounds fine to me.

Although considering the most recent topic came out of nowhere and seems to be ready for the next patch, I am inclined to disagree. They will post more changes even outside the current 36 we can see.



Discuss the "Enhancement of battle effects", as that is the name of the devtag. Maybe I simply have more imagination than you, but I can think of several things to say about the battle effects than just their size. This is what these discussion threads are for. This is why they posted the tag. To get feedback on the subject.

Wish i could be as naive . Honestly . I do wish so.if in 3 months this is what they can accomplish , i think we are waiting for a lot longer than i personally will wait on this game to recover.
Honestly wish im wrong from the bottom of a small fan heart.

I may be wrong, I'm not claiming otherwise. Yet the estimated development time for all of the topics in the "In Development" forum is from one to three-four months at most, especially if they are released in stages like the combat system overhaul. The time is due for everything listed to be complete in May. Either they deliver or they won't, but you can't look at the last 3 (2 really) months as an indicator of anything. It is not naive to assume that the development of the larger topics on that list takes more than few months. The smaller topics have been implemented in stages in the last few months too, not all at once. Even if alone they do not require that much development time, added together they still make quite a list of planned changes, enough to last for months as well.

Seriously, if you look at the topic for "AH", "Jumping" or "Combat overhaul" and assume that the development of those features takes as little time and resources as the development on "Implementation of increased item sizes after finalization" or "Improvements to skill point acquisition for parties", that's just not how it works. There is a reason why small changes are coming before the big ones, it is because they take less time to develop and there is no reason to not implement them if they're ready.

They can still mess up the rehauls and/or delay them, but we are only now getting to the point when we should expect the majority of content in the producer's letters to be done. If they were working on them since September that wouldn't be the case, but they have been working on them since January at best, February at worst. We all know why that is.
