Title: New Summons Possible?
Post by: lonereaper on 2012-07-24 22:11:40
I was wondering if you guys have ever thought of adding new summons, such as Aries/Aerith, Daiblo, Or even adding bringing in some summons from the other Final Fantasies. Is it hard to write the scripts and edit the texture and abilities of a summon of such. Personally If Aries was a summon, she could use a list of bonus attributes such as haste/regen/mbarrier/barrier/shell/or even temporary invincibility like her limit breaks. What do you guys think? I'm sure if we all put our minds to it we could achieve our goal.

Like FF6 remake from Gameboy Advance?

I think they Spoiled that, but putting Diablos and Carbuncle is enough, in the original is 16.

technically, everything is possible
however, since ripping and distributing ripped content is not allowed here, you'd have to create any new summon from scratch, animation, effects, textures and so on
there is also only limited space for attacks in the kernel ( I really wish this could be somehow changed ) so new summons aren't automatically gonna be all that great as most likely another attack has to go for it

The list of things that would need to be changed would likely be at least three single-spaced pages long. Basically it boils down to completely (not exaggerating) re-writing the way attacks are stored, loaded, and indexed. Not a simple task.

Wishing already heavily implies it's not going to happen before we achieve direct-brain-plugin-to-internet technology. At which point we'll all be batteries anyway.

still, you could likely replace an existing attack with a new summon.

Maybe this will be possible when Q-Gears is in a further developed state.

Add this to the "Possible but it ain't happening due to the immense work involved" category.
