A Quick Summary of the recent JP Articles

The Gambit system is one of the best SE has built for a FF game (FFXII).

The only issue with them was they could put the game on auto-pilot - something that would have been easily fixed by disabling them for the main char.. but w/e

Its great to see them in FFXIV though~

Hopefully they are customizable for our Choco and can be upgraded/modified as we see fit.

FFXI was my first main entry into the series (I played a little bit of FFVIII, FFX, and FFX-2 at my friends' houses) to play and own, but I haven't played any of the older ones. So, I'm a bit confused with what the Gambit system is about. Is it much different than the system we have now in the game?

Easier to just read up on than explain honestly xD. It's more "Have to play it" type of things.

The gambit system is programing for newbs. :P

You have a string and then you fill it in with specifics.

If [HP/MP] [%] [symbol] then [another command string or action].

[If [hp] [50%] [<] then [use [potion] [on self]]]

Its simpliler in practice.

I actually wish they added this type of "programing" into the auto translater


Auto translate [ if [... something...] then [something] ] . Then the autotranslater could properly reorder more complex sentences based on who you are talking to (not all languages order the same way). Also the auto translater may be able to pick better words based on context rather then words it may used if you strung a bunch of singular auto translates together. [Mithra] [food] [hole] [can I have it?], wont translate properly into all languages (words will, logic wont).
