The really solved the airship problem in a very elegant way. I'm quite pleased with the route they took with this and that after all these years we are finally getting an actual ariship to fly around the world map in a FF title.

- It is seamless, no loading screen or view change while entering into airship mode. Reminds me of how planes work in GTAV which is a plus

- It integrates neatly into game mechanics already in place with the car and how you tune it up.

- It avoids a common issue previous FF with airships had where after a certain point in the game you end up no longer needing previous vehicles after you got the airship. This avoids the car becoming redundant.

- They also, I'm guessing here, found a neat way to get over the altitude stumbling block that they would have to address had they choosen to go with a more traditional airship. The car doesn't needs to fly that high and the player won't expect it to, so it will feel natural.

Overall, I am looking forward to seeing more footage of it in action. It looks very cool.
