I think that's a decent way to do Limit Breaks in this game. I mean, I don't yet see a way to min-max in such a way to have Noctis doing more than 9999 damage. Also there could be weapons that have the "Limit Break" skill so that normal attacks can also go above 9999 damage.

man, finally one guy who can show the battle system in a fun way.

 

[Omegataco]

unfortunately it seems the Limit Break you can unlock for 999AP only

Spoiler

breaks the limit of the techniques damage lol

lmao

edit:

incredible how the sandstorm makes the area 100% more interesting.

noctis sleeps in the same way he did in Versus XIII scenes (see the camp scene).

GOD, I know its dumb and petty, but everytime I see one of these gameplays, I just want someone to run to the north of the map to see if they can see more land north like this!

amazing VA, the interview is good but there's might be a spoiler in there lol

Welp, that is very disappointing to hear but it's my own fault I guess for making an assumption T_T

yeah, but i always considered armiger the limit break, it essentialy works exactly the same, and we still don't know all the abilities you unlock with this, so we can be surprised.

 

[Bionicle8563]

In terms of the abilities:

Spoiler

at least there's now an ability which allows us to bring the party members back so they don't keep getting hit by magic

 

[ChingleeTribal]

Armiger is nice and all but it's Noctis exclusive. I'd like the other bros to get some Limit Break love xD

 

[Bionicle8563]

Well in my mind the higher tier skills they have will be their Limit Breaks. I mean I would assume that they do tonnes of damage with a skill that takes 3 bars.

Spoiler

Also I wish there was a Group skill in that techniques tree.

EDIT: Whoops, hopefully I didn't spoil too much

Keep in mind that we also know that certain weapons have entirely different movesets. This is just one of the many that we've seen:

An awesome gravity looking gun thing (Are we Mass Effect now????):

It seems that all the Royal Arms

Spoiler

(there was an Axe and a Bow)

and the Machinery weapons seem to do crazy stuff (that chainsaw gun thing we saw in the previews)

 

[Bionicle8563]

I swear man, whoever says the combat looks boring needs to check that gif out. Pretty much the most hype gif I've seen of Noctis himself.

I've not seen that being used in game. I haven't seen any Katana moveset yet in game.

Except by Cor.

 

[Paperchampion23]

I think its just one of the Royal Arms. Royal Arms seem to have their own specific moveset in the game entirely. And there's 13 of those, honestly I think that's were the gameplay variety really hits off, along with Machine weapons and guns.

Edit:

Spoiler

I hope its not Cor's:'(

 

[ChingleeTribal]

Yeh, that's possible.
It looks more like it's activated the same way the Greatsword charge up attack from PD is but katana version.

I was watching the new footage again and it showed what that stat that looks like a wing(or as I think looks like Diabolos' from the side) is.
It's

Nice catch.

This is no reflection on your posts, but I'm at least glad that people have stopped obsessing over Diablo and Doomtrain being in the game. It was getting on my nerves almost as much as the popular misunderstanding that FNC games take place within the same timeline, or that Versus XIII lore and story tidbits have anything but superficial relevance to XV as it is now.

Wait, isn't that ironic, considering that SE had to tone down the death/reaper themes in the game because of Chinese age rating restrictions?

Tabata: "By the way, in Versus 13 Lucis was set as a country of Reaper worship. This setting is a violation of the age rating criteria for games in some countries, so we cannot push these theme. To replace these theme, we have a backbone setting of “black as a special colour.” And I hope you will wait for more information to come on this.”​
