never finished last remnant, also never started infinite undiscovery
1) They arent making a western style action rpg. They just thought the concept art looked like it, but theres no idication that will be final. And if they did, you can bet it would be extremely lame.
You sure? I've seen this same story reported on other websites suggesting (speculating?) that it could be a western style action rpg. Now, that may of course be a complete steaming load, but it's at least fun to kick around the idea. I'm not so sure as you that it would outright suck. I'd love to see what they could do with the idea of it.

The Last Remnant was the first Unreal Engine game developed by Square Enix, in 2009.
Could very well mean that they're trying to bleed some of the west into Japan to revitalize their waning (though I still find it kind of hard to believe) market -starting with the engine itself.
Doesn't seem far fetched to believe that Square could be trying to further their attempt at making an east/west hybrid like they tried to do with FFXIII. They obviously think it'll profit them more if they attempt to meld the two together rather then just go one path and stick with it. Hell, If CoD can do so well there, then I can imagine this gives square the kind of vigor it needs to justify trying this.
"The dev team is also working with unnamed overseas staff on this project."
Get the weird feeling it'll be Ubisoft, considering this: http://www.destructoid.com/final-fantasy-xiii-2-to-have-ass-creed-rev-dlc-costume-216760.phtml
And that thought makes me groan.. Of all the companies to seek help, or even cross promotion, from I can't say Ubisoft is the best choice (if that's who they get help from at all)... And if Ubisoft helps with the networking -given their craptastic love for wonky DRM tactics- I can't say I'm going to be all that excited for this project.
Also, considering Ubisoft is based in Montreal, and Square is getting a new house there, I don't think its all that unnatural to think they're going to knock on their neighbors door and ask for some sugar. I just hope that if I'm right about this, that Ubisoft keeps its development tactics (yearly releases, bitching that cycles need changing, bad DRM, the near unexplainable way they seem to hate the industry and their customers) out of Squares already full cup of problems. Square needs to shed bad habits, not pick up more.
Then again, I do find this picture slightly... well... likeable? Makes me nostalgic for female Link. *heads to Comments Of The Week*
