This game needs a speed up! Increase the Tempo a little!

[Aaron_T]

The Final Fantasy Series is one of my favorite games.
Don't get me wrong though I'm really big into action games too.
Anyone see the previews for FF15? That looks like its going to be very fast paced and more action based.

Now I know a large amount of the community is struggling when it comes to "DODGING" but I really think this game's tempo needs to be kicked up a few notches. Just in general. You don't wanna put people to sleep you wanna keep them excited on the edge. I'm not going to go nit-picking every single slow aspect of the game but lets put it this way.

Updating Warrior's Overpower ability, was a smart move. The Animation is much quicker now.

Also I'm going to fire my retainer.... she is way too slow! I'm ringing the bell woman, stop making me wait 5 seconds on you what are you doing!?

Ok this bard has shot over 50 arrows into the same monster, it isn't dead yet @.@

I have to agree a bit here, mainly flow of battle.

Tanking is far far far to easy, everything is just so slow. I see people saying "this is tactical" but really ?

I can tank 5 mobs at once while rolling a ciggy and having a drink of coffee, its almost as if im semi afk 90% of the time until I need to move to the next trash pack or boss. It suprises me a lot to hear the "so many bad tanks in this game" stories from friends ingame when its just so faceroll, the red circles of AoE/coned attacks require very little reaction timing.

So good Monks are always completely out of TP? No.

A statement from someone who doesn't have a Lv 50 character. Seems legit.

I honestly fall asleep sooo much during this game. Last week it was Turn 4 i fell asleep in.

Dumbest thing I've read today

I don't know how high your standards are, but if you consider twintania to be not exciting enough.. well, you're probably too good to please. At least I find that exciting every time. And engaging. The. Whole. Fight.

Fix the lag first

I need video evidence of this.

I can't believe anyone is trying to say the game isn't fast enough. Compared to the game it is succeeding, the battle speed is super turbo X hyper mode.

This game is actually pretty fast paced (battle-wise) for a RPG. Compare this to any other FF game and the fights go pretty quickly and you have to have some quick reflexes not to totally suck at it.

I suppose it can feel slow once you've got the mechanics down in memory. I could run WP in my sleep now but, when I first started running, it was all shrieks and panicking about Stalker-stabz and table flipping over getting too many stacks of rancor.

But, you pop in any rpg game-- It's meant to be slow because it's story and character development based. If you want action, play a action based game like Halo or CoD. Hell, play some Super Mario Bros; that's more action packed than the general rpg game.
