If they break it up where the original disc swap points were, or similar, then yeah it might be okay. Except that this would likely mean any backtracking and world exploration is gone. "You can't go to Junon, you're in part 3 now!" Of course nothing is definite yet, we barely know anything. Being as vague as possible doesn't really instill a lot of faith though. It's as if they know it's bad news and are trying to beat around the bush. People want to know, is this going to be Final Hallway VII: Remake, or will we actually be able explore and travel a world? Do we have any freedom at all like the original, or is there no gettin' off'a this train we're on? For me, dividing it up like The Walking Dead is a dealbreaker, and I know for many others that's true, too. It could be like that, it could be just like disc swaps from the original, it could be anything. We don't know yet. Not jumping ship at this point, but I am nervous.
Releasing it quicker doesn't matter if you still have to wait exactly as long to get the end of the game. I and many other will not buy each part digitally and then buy the full game physically. This is not a problem for everyone, but for me personally it is. Not that that should matter to anyone not in the same position, of course.
For combat, I'm still not sure there are turns. People keep pointing out what they're calling an ATB bar, but you can see Cloud and Barrett attacking before the bar even fills up, which seems more actiony. Which I didn't think I'd be okay with, but from what we've seen briefly I do like. It seems we can possibly switch between characters, too, instead of just controlling one like in 13, which is a huge relief if that's true.
