Shows off the party more and how they work on the battlefield. Also shows off a shop, camping, and exploration.

Wish they used the term "Bros" instead.

They're clearly bros.

 

[orochi91]

I bet they all die at the end of the game :/

They were a dream all along.

As a Canadian, "buddies" seems more appropriate.

"Bros" seems to be a recent thing.

It turns out they're all imaginary friends and they disappear after half of the game.

Spoiler

Please

Hopefully the AI is good. And lol no it's FF, they'll all live.

 

[djplaeskool]

Pretty good bish ban gif material

 

[Succinct Verbosity]

Is it just me or do the animations seem really good?

 

[MichaelFassbender]

But which one will be the designated driver while the rest get blotto?

 

[djplaeskool]

There seems to be a ton of small, contextual animations that really help flesh out movement.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

Can't wait for the brojob chapter.

 

[Crossing Eden]

Ignis.

They seemed to have used a lot more mocap this time around. And added a shit ton of contextual animations.

 

[MrMatt555]

Keep the trailers flowing Tabata.

Is this a trailer for FFXV proper or for the demo Duscae for those that want to avoid spoilers?

Think it's an official trailer as it has some new footage. Unless we'll be visiting towns in the demo.

 

[GaussTek]

Lol, what the hell happened to that soldier's arm?

Edit. Looks like they are really robots heh

 

[ZombieFred]

Lol, what the hell happened to that soldier's arm?

They're Robots!

 

[The Silver]

I really like that shop for some reason.

 

[FryHole]

I'm not sure I like it, it almost feels overly animated to the point that all those individual contextual beats add up to a kind of movement uncanny valley where it's all impressively detailed but your mind is insisting that no one actually moves like that. I felt the same way sometimes about Uncharted 3, and I've felt like this about FFXV since first seeing Noctis doing his dodge dance. Perhaps it'll fit better with a controller in hand.

Edit: it's like the video game animation equivalent of mannered acting, it's a style that overly draws attention to itself.

 

[Crossing Eden]

They're Robots!

It happens to the one of the left too, it's either a very common glitch or there's something up with them.

 

[Foffy]

Lol, what the hell happened to that soldier's arm?

Michael Jackson? Ready to dance?

 

[Mory Dunz]

Probably the best use of animations I've seen in a video game.

The difference is, the NPC animation in Uncharted isn't anywhere as nuanced as what you see with Prompto, Ignis, and Gladiolus. These guys literally walk looking backwards if Noctis isn't catching up.

Just look here. This looks like a set of different animations for Prompto but everything blends so well together.

 

[Goli]

Those soldiers really are robots, they talked about it earlier.

It's just for Duscae actually, all they've shown today is from the demo.

 

[djplaeskool]

In multiple videos, these mechanical footsoldiers have some really unique and quirky attack and stance animations.
I actually like it. It's like the joints disconnect and rotate to reset positions. It's really intricate if you look at it.

 

[hodgy100]

Lol, what the hell happened to that soldier's arm?

 

[TheGreatDirector]

I really like that shop for some reason.

Yeah, the detail in it surprised me. Can someone get a gif of that?

 

[Garrett Hawke]

I'm really excited for this but I really wish the party lineup had more diversity. I'm hoping the characters at least will be different enough.

 

[bloodyroarxx]

Do I hear Troy Baker?

also god I am SO fucking ready for this.

 

[jet1911]

Lol, what the hell happened to that soldier's arm?

Edit. Looks like they are really robots, I thought it was a glitch heh

What is that guy on the left trying to hit?

 

[djplaeskool]

What is that guy on the left trying to hit?

Prompto
You can see one of his shots pinging off him

 

[sixteen-bit]

Can you romance the gunslinger?

As long as it doesn't happen too often it should feel natural.

Yea looking at that gif their attacks seem almost zombie like. Wonder if that has to do with the story.

Really? Missed that. Still weird animation, if that's intentional lol

Michael Jackson? Ready to dance?

I loled so hard.

 

[FalsettoVibe]

Looking awesome!

 

[Jarnet87]

The Brodeo is real.

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

Square is going hardcore with those ancient latin names. They are latin right?

 

[Cloud Strife]

Shop looking fiiiiiine.

 

[Hibiki Kurosawa]

Oh boy, that title. It's humorous that they call it that, but at the same time I'm not sure I like it. I shall watch it later.

 

[Crossing Eden]

Yea the names are latin but it's trying way too hard with them.

 

[IntelliHeath]

What is that guy on the left trying to hit?

Solider probably trying to attack other party member.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

Unfortunately. I cringed hard at those names.

 

[hipsterpants]

After seeing nothing but this same area for the last 7 months it's going to be weird when we get to see them explore a place that isn't a wide open field or a spooky cave lol

 

[Shredderi]

I'm really excited for this but I really wish the party lineup had more diversity. I'm hoping the characters at least will be different enough.

Was just going to mention this. I wish the cast had more visual diversity instead of all four looking quite same-y with their black dress code.

 

[『Inaba Resident』]

Somebody please gif the high fives at the end

 

[jediyoshi]

I can't stop looking at these character designs and wondering what the fuck they're doing wandering the middle of nowhere open fields.

 

[pszet0]

This ^

 

[wmlk]

They're killing a Behemoth to get money to fix their car.

This is the city they're from, where they fit right in.

 

[Crossing Eden]

Think their city gets taken over and they're on the run. Or their city gets fucked up while they're on a road trip.
