Interesting read

I love the full 3D world. That will make a significant differenece in the feel of the franchise

If the FF franchaise goes down because of the 3D world change... I\'m going to laugh hysterically.

?????????

I\'ve come to realize your sniffing glue billy boy


the full 3D world i sexactly what FF needs, screw that lame overhead map and random battle stuff, screw large loading times and 2D backgrounds.
The only reason it was like that on the PSX is becaus e of obvious lack of sytem power.

I seriously doubt the full 3d FF world will do nothing but make FF series that much more enjoyable

This is probably the best interview I\'ve ever read on FFX.  This game has me so hyped. This is at the top of my list for most anticipated games.

I agree with ddaryl. The game will be much more interesting because of the new possibilities the 3d engine brings!

But to the subject... the article ( the interview ) was interesting, really! But if everyone isn\'t going to have voice-acted speak, then I think only the fmv sequences should have voice-acting. It\'s kinda stupid that the main character speaks his head out ( and we can hear it ), and then the shopkeeper answers with a bland screen of text.. or that\'s what I imagined from the first question and the answers.

am I on weed too?

umm shouldn\'t you know if you are on weed...well you also can\'t really be on weed either... oh well

i liked this interview a lot. even though it only gave a little taste of whats to come. some loght has finally been shed in this great game - and i think the full 3d world is a great idea - leave the pre rendered backgrounds on Onimusha - its time for something new in the FF series and this will be it

bah, screw that, leave all pre rendered back grounds on PSX, this is the PS2 people, why should we put up with inferior 2D backgrounds....of course, if done right and can look kinda special...bah, i dont even know what im saying

Well, I was kinda curious about this too.  That\'s what it sounded sounded like to me.  It may be awkward, but I would also think it would be annoying to hear the same stupid "What would you like to buy?"  Over and over through out the game.

I don\'t think it will be that big of a deal anyway.  I hope the voice acting is good though.  If it isn\'t... it\'s going to really take away from the game.

i read this earlier, i posted it as news, it seems to be very intresting.

Nice read...From what I can tell, the voice over is going to be like Grandia 2.  Coming in on important and emotional parts.  It did work very well and I can\'t wait to hear the American voices...
