| A nice gift from the folks at Square Enix, but there are still many mysteries about the upcoming MMO that are yet to be solved. One of these, which was recently mentioned, is the magic system. According to Dengeki PlayStation, magic will take a similar form to past Final Fantasy titles. There will be single-target spells, area-of-effect spells, and different levels of magic will require longer casting times and higher MP consumption. Although the classes have been altered dramatically from what most fans are familiar with, the naming conventions for magic are said to be largely unchanged. Now we have Final Fantasy XI, which mixed both of these to form a naming system that could better accommodate the range of spells available to adventurers in Vana'diel. |
