Support NeoGAF

[nckillthegrimace]

Remember when people said as a joke that KH3 would be released before FFXV? lol.

I wasn't joking when I said that. The only joke here is FFXV.

 

[YianGaruga]

Literally what do they do at Square Enix all day?

Prepare questions for the next ATR

 

[Zomba13]

So yeah, FFXV will eventually be out in 2018 ("early", Q1). KH3 will be out in 2017 in time for Christmas. FFVII remake will be out sometime in the future.

Literally what do they do at Square Enix all day?

Scrapping stuff they came up with earlier and firing their staff.

 

[JuanLatino]

how big are the chances that DQ 11 will release 2016 in the west as well?
Atleast that and KH 3 would make up for it and make me forget FF15

 

[Garrett Hawke]

Is that Lightning or someone from FFXV? Did not look at new trailer yet, but I'm really liking the character model. I Might need to try out FFXII as my first Final Fantasy game.

That is Lightning, i.e. the Queen of Pop. And FFXIII. Feminist icon tbqh. Love her

 

[Relaxed Muscle]

Nice to see a new area in the game. ^^

Early Story info - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fzTVmDIqpJ0
Malboro gameplay - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xPXSyvJtb4g

Didn't they confirmed it was duscae?

lol

 

[PLASTICA-MAN]

Yes

Thank you, nice gameplay.

 

[artsi]

Prepare questions for the next ATR

But not the answers.

 

[Frumix]

Literally what do they do at Square Enix all day?

They're trying really hard to push the graphical quality envelope. Realistic lightning, realistic fog, all those skin and hair effects, clothing. What's that? It doesn't run very well and we can't even work with LOD for flying on airships very well? Does it matter, look at that great-looking tear!

Final Fantasy never changes.

 

[Shouta]

This was announced the year Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria was released and we're gonna get a VP spiritual sequel before this, lol.

 

[Jarmel]

Remember in the last few threads when an odd "2015 surprise release date announcement!" post would pop up?

Ayy

I look forward to those exact same posts next year.

 

[Wavebossa]

I agree you should try out FFXII, but your post makes no sense lol

P.S. Yes, that's Lightning, she's in FFXIII though

 

[MultiJhonny]

Didn't they confirmed it was duscae?

lol

No they said it was in the second half of the game

 

[Vitanimus]

i can't decide what the worst thing was

was there a single question that they didn't dodge with the whole "LOOK FORWARD TO FUTURE UPDATES"

 

[Ghost Slayer]

Bad news is they may not release it on time for 10th anniversary
Positive news that is they have time for 15th anniversary

 

[Arkeband]

sir I think you're lost

 

[PLASTICA-MAN]

What do you want to bet?

Lol, the release date of the game itself which will be the most precious thing along with HL3 release date too. XD

 

[Zomba13]

Guys... What if the FFXV demo (ver 2.0) has more stuff done than what they have on the rest of the game so far combined?

 

[DrROBschiz]

And here we thought SE was getting itself back on track after E3

I am now deeply concerned about all of their projects

I guess Dragon Quest to the rescue since they can actually complete and release games?

 

[Wavebossa]

Remember in the last few threads when an odd "2015 surprise release date announcement!" post would pop up?

Ayy

I'm reading one of those threads side by side and the difference is amazing. Like... literally the exact opposite. All the hope.... all gone now...

 

[Kain]

This was announced the year Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria was released and we're gonna get a VP spiritual sequel before this, lol.

Shit. SHIT.

Spoiler

Also Lighthing Returns is somewhat a VP, so...

 

[Stone Ocean]

So uhh Square is still announcing shit at Gamescom right

right

 

[Relaxed Muscle]

No they said it was in the second half of the game

The joke here is that second half of the game is set in duscae too!!

 

[Joqu]

Oh yeah I completely forgot they skipped E3 for this, wow.

Nomura's vaporware at least managed to excite me, Tabata's has just been dull so far.

I look forward to hearing what feature they're considering adding next thanks to their focus groups

 

[Fou-Lu]

Well, at least the Marlboro looks amazing, right?

 

[Devilinthiscity]

Never ever thought I would live to see the day where people on GAF would wish for Toriyama to come back.

Wow.

People are just losing their patience, rightly so too. I've already lost interest after hearing them say how much the story has changed from the original concept. That and the lackluster showing of anything new after such a long time really doesn't help either. Having Toriyama helming another mainline FF is the last thing I would want and wish for. Especially after playing through all of FF XIII. My biggest fear is that XV will be the new XIII after waiting all those years for it. Airship DLC? Really?

 

[holysan]

I guess Dragon Quest to the rescue since they can actually complete and release games?

UE4 games should be fine.

 

[Kintaro]

Fuck it, Final Fantast XVI needs Unreal Engine 4 and Naoki Yoshida at the helm.

Not sure people would be happy with Grind Fantasy XV. Final Grind XV? Hmm...

 

[Caronte]

Remember when people said as a joke that KH3 would be released before FFXV? lol.

I never said it as a joke.

 

[KHlover]

And here we thought SE was getting itself back on track after E3

I am now deeply concerned about all of their projects

I guess Dragon Quest to the rescue since they can actually complete and release games?

Don't be, the rest of their projects are developed with an actual engine.

 

[Big Green Anus]

I AM THE FUNNY MOD

I AM FUNNIER THAN THE REST OF THE MODS COMBINED

I AM THE CHEESE

I AM BETTER THAN THE SALAMI AND THE BOLOGNA COMBINED

I can't disagree with you there, lol

 

[-Horizon-]

CNN? Aw, Fox News step your game up :<

 

[DrROBschiz]

Guys... What if the FFXV demo (ver 2.0) has more stuff done than what they have on the rest of the game so far combined?

That appears to be the case

Though i am sure they have mountains of puzzle pieces and assets they have created and shelved over the past several years that they have no idea how to string together

This development looks even MORE messy than when they started

 

[Zomba13]

Well, at least the Marlboro looks amazing, right?

Part of me thought it would just be a version of the CG one used in FFXIV's 1.0 opening. It isn't though. It would have been suuuuuper funny if it was.

 

[Seven Force]

Man, so if this is whatever they scrounged up for Gamescom, they must really have had fuck all to show for E3. Hilarious.

If not for the other projects in the pipeline, seemingly from teams that actually ship games, I'd probably be a lot more annoyed. I'm actually slightly amused by all of this, haha.

 

[AzureFlame]

This is horrible, Tabata you dissapointed me alot.

 

[Stuart444]

Literally what do they do at Square Enix all day?

A lot of things, they are a big company.

Let's look at all the games in development both western and Japanese made. Hmm, yeah quite a lot.

But because of this FFXV stuff, we don't do much. I don't know how but somehow we don't.

SE: ;_; why tabata-san, why? We want to do stuff.

 

[Voror]

It's amazing how all it took was one of these to completely undermine everyone's hopes that this was on track and maybe doing well. How are they screwing this up so badly?

The game is already on something of an uphill battle and this just makes it seem even worse.

I wonder if the KH3 team is just that much more organized.

 

[kevin1025]

Guys... What if the FFXV demo (ver 2.0) has more stuff done than what they have on the rest of the game so far combined?

I believe that was all the work they have done, period.

 

[KillerMan91]

They really should have made the switch to Unreal Engine 4 with FFXV like they did with KHIII.

 

[wolfhowwl]

I wept hot tears of rage when Stella was assassinated in the dark by Tabata, but now...

I feel nothing. Emptiness.

 

[fedexpeon]

Marlboro gameplay footage!

Good god...Was the music always this bad?
So loud for no good reason.
Noctis is literally just walking in an open field, and we have loud music roaring out from the speakers instead.

PS: Dem pop-in.

 

[gosoxtim]

in nomura i trust you may not like his style but he does things the right way

 

[Exentryk]

Didn't they confirmed it was duscae?

lol

They said this area is only reachable in the 2nd half of the game. Did they say it was part of Duscae?

 

[Lights and Waves]

At least this means we'll get to play KH3 sooner than we originally thought! At least that gameplay footage actually had the HUD intact.

 

[Wavebossa]

Well, at least the Marlboro looks amazing, right?

It also killed the fps... And this is not 30fps vs 60fps debate, that was like 10 fps with a long judder.

They have lots to work on

 

[udivision]

Bad news is they may not release it on time for 10th anniversary
Positive news that is they have time for 15th anniversary

I never thought of it that way, wow.

"We at Square Enix are proud to announce, on the 10th Anniversary of the announcement of Final Fantasy XV... you'll be able to play FFXV... soon!"

 

[KeyChainDude]

The game was announced before I joined high school.

I'm pretty sure I'll be graduated before it comes out.
