Remember the good old Final Fantasy games? Where you took a few steps and got attacked by some random monster? Well I'm making it as close to that as possible. Not only random battles, but the actual FF Battle System. That's right, good old take-turn action FF style! The game itself will be a mix of what I remember from FF7, FF8, and FFX.

If you're looking for some ideas on how to do an efficient turn based system, check out Mp)3's Avarian Chronicles Demo. It has a pretty nice system for party movement and such that you may want to consider. smile.gif

Oh yeah and what do you mean by "the game itself will be a mix of what I remember from FF7, FF8, and FFX?" Is that supposed to mean that Tidus and Cloud will fight side by side to beat Sin and Shinra while Seed goes around killing everything else that comes their way? happy.gif Or are you just taking the plots from them and mixing it all together?

WOW. Having Cloud and Tidus fight side by side! That's would be awesome to see in a real movie, and them teaming up to destroy Sin and Shinra. That would be totally awesome to see.

You should work on your storyline for a bit before doing everything else. Trust me; it's much easier that way.

Well, I haven't actually played a FF game for five years now, so what I mean by that is that it will mostly be FF7 stuff, because that one was the best and I remeber the most, but there might be some things that come from 8 and X, too.

EDIT: As for the storyline, I'm kinda throwing away some stuff from FF7 and adding my own. I know I just HAVE to put sephiroph in there (got the awesome music) and I'm thinking of doing something with Meteor.

Plus, information I forgot to add up top is it is 1 player so far. I really couldn't think of a way to make this a multiplayer game, since the original FF7 was 1 player. Since it's 1 player, though, I was thinking of making multiple maps to represent the different areas. I'm just wondering, can you carry over ANYTHING when you call victory and swich to a new map?

REPLY: I'm trying to screw around with what I remember and kinda make my own storyline. As I said, I only reallt remember there being Sephiroth, Meteor, oh, and the Weapons. Those were always cool.

Or, if you all think it'd be better, I could scrap my map and start over with my own characters, storyline, etc.
Yeah, then I could probably find a way to make it multiplayer!
NEWS: I have decided to only make it Final Fantasy-ish, scrap what I have so far, and make it multiplayer!

But my question was mainly "what are you taking from those games?" Is this basically going to be a new FF7 map with a turn-based battle system? You'd probably be better off just making your own RPG from scratch since FF7 has already been made into a map a few times.

Final Fantasy is NOT Turn Based. It's time based.

Well in a way it is "Turn" based also.

ITs both it matters wat game your playing FF7 is timed FF8 is timed 9 is timed and i think they are turn to you can go to the settings and change it FFX is turn um FFX-2 is best timed but its also Turned. FFXI is timed but not random battles lol i have every FF -.-!!
