are all the chapters in FFXV as short as the first 4? because instead of being chapters of a story it feels more like each chapter is designated to one plot beat and are only an ~hour long

i think the next few are long then the last couple are short. the story isnt very long anyway

I probably spent most of my time in chapter 3 i think because i did like every sidequest I could and was disgustingly overlevled for the rest of the game

Basically, yes. The only long one is 13, which is the infamous solo noctis chapter. 14 is longer too but only if you have ROYAL EDITION which adds some bosses and stuff to it, otherwise it's a corridor you walk down and the final boss is at the end of it

Seeing all these cool places through a train window and not visiting them reminds me of the bit in no more heroes 2 where Henry shows you photos of all the bosses he killed offscreen

I'm liking FF7 a lot more than I did as a kid. It's fun and clever and paced well so far.

Do you think they made characters interchangeable with materia because they planned to permanently take away a party member?

they originally planned for the characters to have classes, including cait sith being a "Toysaurus"

I remember reading that the thing you refer to was a last-minute decision, and the materia system was just sort of where their heads were at designwise at the time. The characters' malleability in 5 and 6 evolved into the systems of 7 and 8 where anybody can be anything at any time.

Yeah, this is what I did. It feels kind of weird to go back to the few you have to finish off after the ending, though

I'm glad they figured out how to do character-based spin-off sequel games: just give us a small game with every interesting character.

I'm confused by episode Noctis because isn't that just FFXV.
