um Col, just so you know, the link is broken. You've omitted a word, so instead of leading to the article, it leads to the 404 page

Yeah, that gameplay trailer from January was a complete bait-and-switch *sarcasm*. An FPS style camera is only for event scenes and cutscenes. This is so there's no break in the flow of gameplay. I have no idea how it's gonna work exactly in terms of how we interact with it, but I know the game isn't an FPS.

You need only look at the way FPS games like Half Life, Call of Duty and Killzone handles cutscenes, there are rarely any breaks from gameplay to event to gameplay again, I'm fairly certain that's what Nomura means.

I dunno. I kinda like cutscenes. It gives whatever is happening more significance. Besides, the game is in third person, correct? I don't think an immovable camera would cut the flow. Just take a look at how kingdom hearts handles its cutscenes.

There's a lot of misunderstanding about the nature of the ingame event scenes. Let me clarify.

1. Cutscenes will still be there, they will just be beautiful FMVs.

2. The ingame event scenes are similar to how FPS games handle the story. Nomura did not say that the events are in first person. Basically the event scenes are controllable. You're a part of the scene, not just watching it.

I hope things are a bit clearer now.

I dunno, KH events are really bland..I certainly hope Nomura doesn't take that direction.
