Ifrit Fight

[Xmbei]

I also agree with this, please dont make all the new high end gear light up. Make it exclusive to primal elementals? too many glowing weapons is bad and gets worse quick

considering ifrit is Fire incarnate... you would think the weapons would glow with his left over aura... so I am not surprised... Now if this was a drop from say an Imperial or normal mob, sure I see your point but... The glow to me symbolizes Ifrit's soul strengthening the weapons.

thats why I hope they keep it for extremely special cases (Ifrit, Shiva, The Dude)

If you go for over-the-top art style, then you should have over-the-top weapons.

This game is realistic, classy, and consistency would be nice. BUT HEY DEY LOOK AWSUM WOAH I hope they call them EPIX

Next in line SHOULDER PADS and GLOWING ARMOUR

You're getting there!

But as for positive feedback, GJ on posting the different language versions simultaneously.

ugh with that example I see where your fear's lie... omg that is so ugly... but I think they can give it a sense of Ifrit without making it gaudy.

The case that is says 'hard-mode' should please all those people screaming for a hard mode.

The case that the weapons look like the awesome weapons in previous final fantasies will please those looking for more final fantasy in this game.

Damnit! Still 6 days till the patch! You're torturing us with videos!!! XD

[Kobushi]

huh they actualy went with the idea of glowing weapons someone posted

[Xmbei]

Oh and to add on to my glowing comment's at least they are centralized on specific parts not an over arching red/orange glow... which I would absolutely hate, I also like that the "Ifrit Soul" as I am going to call it is dormant when in passive mode and bright and alive when in active mode. It shows to me as if you the player is calling on his strength upon pulling out your weapon to defend and strengthen you. If there is armor that drops with the same property's I hope the glow is also only active in active mode and just looks normal in passive. Like synergy with Ifrit calling on his power to strengthen you in the fight to come!

though I won't be upset by this because I stated it before, but it is worrying me if it is the case... that L30 will be Easy mode and L50 will be hard mode... I think it should be just one set level and you have an option of tackling the easy mode or hard mode... because to L50 i think the L30 Ifrit though tricky will most likely still be a cakewalk... like totorak...

From the looks of it they are trying to use cheap tricks to appeal to the audience. They seem to think their previous endeavours couldn't pull it off by having consistent, classy and somewhat realistic art direction so now we get attempts to look "cooler" by making humongous weapons that shoot lasers, fights that are inconsistent with the lore and systems that make fun of the lore (because they have been implemented from a "gameplay first, lore second" standpoint)- like, say, "building a stronger emotional attachment to your armor in which case it can be converted into MATERIA" (MATERIA like in FINAL FANTASY SEVEN, ye hear me?!). What the hell is this crap? Like, you start loving your pants sooo much that by the power of Gray Skull you can magically turn them into a gem? But did I already mentioned MATERIA?

It's easy to realize which part of the system was an afterthought. I feel sorry for the lore-masters.

There's some feedback Foxclon!

please no glowing armor, please no glowing armor, please no glowing armor(except an ifrit skull shield!)

Toto-Rak is hardly a cake walk if you're running it at the appropriate level.

And yes as someone who values the lore, the past few patches have been making my stomach churl. How is Materia going to tie into the game world? Are they gonna retcon everything so that materia is seen as an important offshoot of Aetheryte or is it just going to be there?
