A new update for the "Final Fantasy VII" remake reveals that the title's visuals are coming along well, while the team is still experimenting when it comes to the battle system. Producer of the title Yoshinori Kitase told Famitsu via Gematsu that progress is being made, while reiterating what has already been said about the need to update the old turn based fighting system.
“We’re starting to see the visual direction,” Kitase said. “On the other hand, we’re currently working out the battle system and such through trial-and-error. Since there’s a possibility that the command battle system of the old days might not work today, we’re thinking hard about what kind of direction we can take it.
“Normally, when you do a remake, it becomes somewhere along the lines of a familiar action RPG, so we’re looking at how we can put out something like Final Fantasy VII while still surprising players.
"Please don’t ask about how far into development we are and such. [Laughs]."
Meanwhile, director Tetsuya Nomura previously said of the combat system: "We are going to be bringing dramatic changes, but we want to make sure it’s still recognizable."
