    Question Summon Magic

    So in the trailer from like 2007-08 someone noticed that the command section mentioned Summons, so which summons do you think will be in the game besides Leviathan and how do you think they will work considering the nature of the game?

    I think they might work like mounts, but without all that transformers BS XIII had.

    I really hope not, I never liked that mechanic anyway. I'm really curious about this because if there was one element that the KH Team could never get right and thankfully they just kind of gave up on it, it was summon magic.

    I'm expecting something similar to FFXII though hopefully with all the problems worked out.

    FFXII with all the problems worked out would be fantastic, but that is a serious undertaking.

    There were some pretty solid mechanics for summons in Type-0.
    My friend Delzethin is currently running a GoFundMe account to pay for some extended medical troubles he's had. He's had chronic issues and lifetime troubles that have really crippled his career opportunities, and he's trying to get enough funding to get back to a stable medical situation. If you like his content, please support his GoFundMe, or even just contribute to his Patreon.

    He can really use a hand with this, and any support you can offer is appreciated.

    I hope Shiva, Ifrit, and Carbuncle will be there. I also hope it's back to more traditional summoning.

    Shiva, Ifrit and Bahamut will all be there. I think Fynn might be right in that they could well be mounts. Alternatively it could work similar to X where everyone buggers off and the player controls the summon.

    I'd like to see Bismarck become more of a series regular. Though if it does work like X I'm not sure how controlling a giant whale on land will work.

    Also, Odin.
