Why Not Make Limit Break Interesting Already?

[spf1200]

You have just described a quick time event, and depending how they are done are the worst idea in gaming ever.


I like the idea of skill chains building it up though.

you've never played another final fantasy have you? Every one that has limit breaks they are always QTE like mini-games.

I haven't played any that had a QTE that I can remember. Other than this one I've played dawn of souls and ffiv.

Like I said it depends how they are done though. I'm not a fan of random "press these buttons in this order" mechanics popping up and if they have to be done while dodging additional mechanics I can only hope they won't be of the "one person fails QTE = party wipe" type.

I'd love for them to be used in a phase transition. So let's say you're in the limit break phase, and you have to QTE to mitigate damage against the boss. Fail too many QTEs and you die. Bit like how the single button QTE works in A11. If you don't press it in time, you die.

8 and 10 both had QTE limit breaks.

It would be nice if they went to a personal limit break gauge instead of a party based one, if for nothing else than someone wasting it right before a boss just to troll.
