Thank you time traveler.
New direct feed (but 1280x720) Final Fantasy XV screens from the demo, also Type-0 HD
- Thread starter Kagari
- Start date
Thank you time traveler.
Nice amount, i hope the outside collaborations will help the game get released quicker.
Nice, the more content (as long as it has quality) the better.
Can't wait for that teased card game!
Wasn't it pretty clear from the latest trailer?
Cool, this will give even more feelings of exploration.
not defending him, but I actually agreed with him based on the available evidence.

Hope they will demonstrate the english version tommorow.
Downgrade confirmed.
How does it feel to not be able to deliver? Does it feel shameful?! Next up, you can't walk. They're taking away everyone's legs.

Good...
Also did he specify YouTube? Cause it was a hell of a lot more than just YouTube.

I actually really like that you can't go through the fields with the car. It will give a lot better sense of exploration with Chocobos and on foot
Yeah but, does Hashimoto know? That's what matters the most. Is he sadistically laughing in the background still?
You would like it you freedom hating communist.
Weaksauce developers. So much weaksauce I can't even put it on my cheeseburger because it'd ruin the taste.

And Tabata originally wanted the demo to focus on driving, hmm.

There is no car in the demo.
I mean in the sense that it looks like a lot of things are rougher round the edges here; LOD seems much more aggressive etc. (looking at the trees in the background) compared with earlier showings. Although that stuff is harder to see on compressed videos compared with direct feed screens.

Are we walking and attacking with our hands now? Because that would be sick.
I do however wonder if it's "on rails" like the movement stuff in Killer 7, or if it controls normally, we just can't go off-road.

I don't mind on-rails driving that much, but I hope Chocobos are easily accessible off-road in that case.
Wish we could stuff a Chocobo in our car for convenience.

how do we then explain the off-road sequences seen in the TGS trailer? cut? AI-control?
They weren't on grass. They were paved roads.

If Chocobo breeding is anything like Type-0, I doubt players will ever run out of Chocobos to ride on (I do hope they don't put a time limit on Chocobos like Type-0 though).
I'm happy with cutting many things if they get the game out sooner.
Mini-games? Fishing, cards, some hunts sure. Forget the rest. I don't want to hear about skipping, or some other weird stuff like skiing or other crap. This isn't Austria.
Open world? Reduce it a little. Cut some areas that aren't completely necessary. It's cool. It's fine. No one has to know. What you don't know can't hurt you.
Summons? Keep Bahamut, kill some of the rest. You get one big setpiece, it's more memorable than half a dozen. Less is more. Someone said this in a book somewhere I think.
Cities? Two big ones is fine. Just throw some huts and shops everywhere else and we can pretend they're small towns. It's like mental exercise, and it's good for our brains.
Airship? Too late for that now. It had its chance. Kill it now. No need to think about it.
It's time for someone to make the tough decisions. Crack that whip. Put the fear of Godzilla in their hearts. The game needs to be finished. Everybody tired of this. They're tired. They want to move on. They don't want to play a game about mutants and Apocalypse. It's everyone. They're on the line. They want to move on.
Matsuda fuck yourself!

lol somebody stops this man, he's out of control.
I'm with you, it's the only part of Noctis design that i hate.
Well there's already a Chocobo-related area in the demo, so i hope they'll be widely avaible.
I'd actually be happy about any streamlining of the car driving mechanic, as it would just take to much time and effort if they wanted it to be as sophisticated as other driving games or even GTA. It would pose too many difficulties in regards to AI and collision detection.
An open-world RPG is already ambitious enough, they don't need to be GTA, too.
Just make the car slow down a bit and ignore directional input if you're about to move outside the road, similar to how moving diagonally into a wall and makes you slide along it in most games.

Might be referring to this part:
correct.
BocoDragon
or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Realize This Assgrab is Delicious
Things would get kind of weird for FF if we could just rip-around off-road and plow through monsters and whatnot.... I can understand that design decision.....
How do you know they're long shorts, and not just short pants?
Perfo
Thirteen flew over the cuckoo's nest
I started to guess that was the case some time ago. The moment I've seen the chocobo...
fine with me btw. This way we'll make use of every type of "mount" plus they'll not have to handle some complex physics for off-road drive and obstacles.

That would actually be kinda funny. But I wouldn't want it actually in the game. The car turns into a sword for Noctis
LOL.
I mean, I guess there are some big fans of FF13 that aren't tied to lightning.
Wouldn't be that much different from the older games.

I can actually agree with all of this to some extent except the summons. I'd love to have a handful of summons to get (but aren't given to you through story), so that finding all the summons can be fun and you can be rewarded with it's usefulness and spectacle.
Yelp, agree with this.

Final Fantasy Auto cancelled.
Well I suppose if we think about it logically you wouldn't ram yourself off road in a world where Chocobo's exist.

I'm optimistic about Stella being included. For one thing, if they really had "replaced" her with Luna, they probably would have just named Luna Stella to avoid backlash. It just makes no sense to arbitrarily cut a character who has been touted as extremely plot significant since the early days, and as far as I can tell the fear stems from Luna looking like Stella? It's possible they're the same person, sure. It doesn't seem very possible that Stella has been altogether cut.
The 2011 Versus XIII gameplay blowout definitely had an MP system. I don't bring this up to correct you, I bring it up because the system worked very clearly as you theorize in your post! The gang attacked, and attacking filled a gauged that earned then MP points. One point for one basic spell. I loved the way that system worked, and I very much hope you are right in your speculation and that it remains intact.
On that topic, magic has been channeled through Noctis' weapons as early as that 2011 demo and as late as XV's re-reveal. It looked like spells were assigned to weapons, as the weapon appeared where Noctis casted his spell and the spell was produced through it. I hope this is still in and the effect was just missing from the tech demo because it looked very interesting.

XV has always come across as an "You'll have everything and the kitchen sink! We Promise!" Kind of game. Versus XIII was utterly stupid with this kind of stuff: 4 unique combat styles (though the exclusion of that one did disappoint me), airships, tanks, other vehicles, open world exploration, Dragon's Dogma type grappling with enemies, and so on. That XV won't deliver on everything previously promised is unsurprising and to be expected on a game that is actually being made.

Airships and tanks and vehicles are still confirmed though right?

Man, the way I see you guys talk about this game sometimes, I feel like I somehow missed a big info dump or trailer back in the Versus days. I thought I followed the game pretty closely and that we knew almost nothing about it.
