FF power system that is lacking in VTR

[Mr. Cogito]

Hello,

I have played and finished  over 15 years ago. I remember it very fondly.

Being struck with nostalgia I decided to try Freedom Force and was astonishing with it's intelligent implementation of power system and how flexible it was. After that I decided to use GOG version of FFvtr instead of my old copy and try FF classic mod.

In that moment I realized something and quickly switched to FFvtr campaign to check it after so manny years. I was struck with fact of how much three bar system destroyed the whole power dynamic from OG Freedom Force. I remember people complaining many years ago about how  ffvtr has destroyed some part of legacy and now I have discovered what it was. It's like making DS game without stamina bar and infinite spell casting (costless spells).

Due to it  ffvstr become so easy that I have to switch to Insane difficulty to get at least part of original Freedom Force experience (which even on normal difficulty appear to be really challenging and satisfying). Manny powers and my favorite character mechanic from    in    become completly useless.

Maybe that was the reason why  ffvtr flopped compared to Freedom Force according to this article.

My question is: Is there a possibility to bring back old  power system (even without changing UI) to  (the five degrees of power intensity ( the <<, <, O, > and >>)?

Sorry for repeating potential subject from past of this forum.

Have a nice day

Hello Mr. Cognito. As far as I know, it's not possible to bring back the original power system to FFvsTTR. The closest you can do is to use the FFX mod's Control Centre app and check the "Overspend EP w/ Stun Risk option".

The transition is indeed annoying but it get's better.

Just change your basic attacks to no cost and make them very low in damage.

Or make them no cost and only stun effect.

Their special skills should be medium or high in damage. The same with knockback. The energy consumption is up to you.

It works for me in Custom AI Battles. And it feels like Marvel Future Fight because of the non stop explosive action.
