I finished the demo last night. I thought it was a really fresh take on the original.
I didn't fully get the combat down but I could imagine myself having a lot of fun with it once you add more characters to your party. I'm dying to give Red XIII and Vincent Valentine a run. [Reply]
I was actually replaying the original as of a couple months ago and I did not have that much trouble with the scorpion the first go 'round. This time it took me like 20 minutes and I got Cloud killed. [Reply]

ATB is everything. ATB is magic, items, abilities. Try to manage your ATB better between both of them and you'll kill it a lot faster. [Reply]

So do you run around and Dodge for a bit so it goes up? I kindve just kept attacking without waiting. Took forever [Reply]

ATB only goes up when attacking and blocking. Might as well just keep spam attacking. If you switch to Barrett Cloud will build up a good amount of ATB doing AI moves, then switch back to him to use the ATB up. Rinse and repeat. [Reply]
The thing that kept giving me problems were the seemingly unavoidable attacks, like missile barrages and that EMP slam. Once I figured out I could use partner abilities with R2, the fight was manageable with heavy potion use but I still feel like I was doing something wrong. For the first boss I shouldn't have been taking that much damage. [Reply]

That helps I barely switched too. I'll try good again [Reply]
