What do you mean now?

Conceptually, what they have shown in that demo was always more intriguing.

I don't totally agree. I think the original Versus XIII was one of the cooler concepts I've seen put out from SE in recent years. If I were choosing between VXII and Agni, I'd take VXIII. But it's clear that they have has absolutely mangled the original vision of VXIII and the new game bears little similarity to it at all...

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?

They should follow Sakaguchi's advice and have Ito helm the next game.

Tabata was a mistake, he's all trash.

Throw your hands up to the sky and scream THANK YOU BASED NOMURA and pray that Final Fantasy VII will forgive this fifteenth coming.

ATR summary:


  • We redesigned Regis
  • Airships? No clue, maybe as DLC.
  • We're nowhere near done.
  • We can't announce a release window, even if we do have one.
  • Important questions about black bars and cosplay.
  • The prologue of the game has changed!
  • Luna is a stong female character even though nothing we've shown supports that.
  • The girl with the black hair? We haven't named her yet.
  • Main baddie? Who knows.
  • Stay tuned for PAX when we'll show the same trailer.
  • Feedback forum! Not ready yet.

Tabata seems lost. Maybe they threw him on too large of a project too soon?

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.

I'm pretty sure that's bad editing for this "gameplay demo". Not even a HUD, good lord....

To be fair, they showed off an unfinished area. Not optimized or fit for demoing purposes at all, music probably was placeholder or not even in the game segment to begin with.

Totally. However, people would be better off taking a more measured outlook both on upswings and downswings.

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.

You've seen anything from KH3 except that one very boilerplate looking grass canyon cell? Please, show us this highly developed KH3!

I am convinced that this game will be one of the biggest flops of this generation -- if it's ever even released.

Such a bummer what it's become.

Any reasons why this is happening with FFXV? I'm assuming it's an engine problem and can see this game getting delayed to 2017, which they should be converting to Unreal 4.

KH3 is progressing nicely so far, which surprised me since FFXV had A LOT of time to fix things.

I know Square invested a lot of money in this game, but maybe they can cancel this game and split up the people who made FFXV by making them create multiple mobiles games and assist other projects console/PC projects.

Fixed.



Didn't look anywhere near that. Looks like same the framerate as the demo.
Click to expand...

I'm talking about when the Malboro came out. Look at it again, the framerate drops to single digits

Even after it comes out and they are fighting it, it looks around 20fps maybe lower.

If nothing significant is announced or important questions answered at PAX/TGS. I'm done following this game. I don't understand how Tabata can sit there with a smug smile and drink his damn beer when so much time and resources have gone into this game and he has nothing to show for it .He promises that there's a 'plan' yet how can he be trusted when he told us that FFXV was the same as FFVXIII when it was re announced and that not much had changed.
The salt is real.

What is happening with this game? why are they chaging so much stuff?

Is not like people hated what they had shown in the past.

I'm so confused.

Thank god I have DQXI to look forward.

I'm so glad Enix seems to be a completely separate entity from this group. None of their incompetence spilling over onto projects like DQXI or DQ: Heroes or whatever.

Protip for SE: Stop redesigning perfectly good character models/locations for no reason and work on making a game out of those assets. Who knows? With the time spent on scrapping Stella and making Luna and changing stories and changing daddys and altering clothing on big muscle men you might have had enough manpower to make a small, indoor area? Like a log cabin interior or something?

Yeah, and what happens after you summon Ramuh and the camera returns to ground level and the environment is on fire? You're playing a slideshow. Same thing.

The game was announced before I joined high school.

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

It was announced when I was in middle school (2006) and now I'm already done with Uni. Lmao.

Guys, you will be happier when you just think of FFXV being in development since 2013.

Everything before it was just a small team working on art design, CG, and playing around with a new engine. Think of it as a tech demo before then.

So they are making decent progress for a game that's only been in development for 2 years.

I mean they said everything was progressing nicely. The only trouble is the airships.

But they didn't show us that it is

They kinda started over the promotion stuff which is where I think everyone doesn't quite get for some reason. They said they are bringing new fans and old ones to square one with the promo. Just classic gaf overreaction.

They almost would have been better off letting Nomura finish it?

WHo the hell knows. Something went very wrong here

with the amount of money and time poured into this project, I'm wondering how much they actually lost.

Nice spinning there.

It actually is:

  • Airships? We can already have bird-view based ship, still working on full-fledged and full scale navigation. Might add as DLC, but we definitely want controllable airships in the game.

But i'm sure you're just enjoying complaining about the game without concrete facts so please go on.

I'm just gonna wait for the next time this game gets scrapped and SE rip YoshiP off of FFXIV to fix this mess like he did with the last one and decides to scrap all this Nocctis and Luna shit and just give us a big old classic FF set in Eorzea using all them lovely assets already made. Bonus: Every FFXIV player's character becomes a random NPC in the game!

I remember when people were pissed that this game was a no show for years.

so now we know why....

Perhaps it was better to not see it for a while rather than get piecemeal info?
