Duscae combat has a good feeling of weight.
It's true the new footage looks floatier (but then, aerial combat really wasn't in Duscae -- not sure how to do fast-paced aerial combat w/out a little floatiness).
If they could keep the sense of weight on the ground, and give enough float for meaningful aerial combos, would be best of both worlds.

It's floaty here because Tabata is trying to showcase the aerial combo. I imagine if you stick to ground combo, you would feel the weight again. Though obviously I think FFXV is more influenced by KH in certain aspects, so Noctis can jump and leap around and zero shift here and there unlike Dragon's Dogma which is largely grounded and more realistic.
The March event.
Huh, did you miss the first Progress Report at TGS a few months ago?^^

And now they've shown Noctis using a similar if not the same samurai blade. Huh.

Still not a fan of having one character do everything.
Especially if he's way better than the people who use only one weapon.

No? that would be disappointing
I think those three are just the basic spells and later we will get the advanced awesome ones like this
Huh! What is this game?
Dragon's Dogma.

An Aero spell to throw enemies in the air and start an aerial combo would be god-like.

UI is in September build. They need to stop releasing old build screenshots if development team can't get decent recent build screenshots for marketing team.

Well the video looks way better, those screens don't do the game justice, that's why i said pls stahp SE.
Yeah, but we haven't seen any console footage recently, besides the Caem driving video, IIRC:

The Chocobo one which looked great was comfirmed to be running on PC:

I don't think they said anything about whether this new trailer is running on consoles or not, or does anybody know?

If it was on consoles, I wouldn't be surprised, most of the area they showed was completely flat or covered in darkness.

PC. Tabata said in ATR that they are porting assets to console version and it's unstable right now.
Hope the optimization process will be smooth. Most importantly, really really hope that everything in the game will be fully ported to consoles (no downgrades, bad textures etc). I want to enjoy this world in all of its glory. God so excited.
This is the game that will revive the Final Fantasy franchise. Its been too long...

I expect draw distance will be shit on console. As long as it's not bad like the recent screenshots, I'm fine then

That still could be a finished / tested console section, we just can't know without confirmation.

He's a mary sue is what he is.
It's just said in a game with only four characters in it, they decided to design it around one character instead of only four.
I mean it's only four.
Come on.
Noctis might seem better, but that's maybe mostly because he's using his magic to do all kinds of flashy shit (the playable character needs to be able to do flashy shit, it wouldn't do if the team mates did all the cool shit while Noctis weeps in the corner
). The other characters should still technically be better at using their weapon of choice. Maybe that will manifest in the skills the other characters can learn as you progress through the game & get a few level ups, which might be stuff that Noctis won't be able to do at all since he should be the "jack of all trades, master of none" character. Prompto is already kind of shown to be better with a gun, since he's jumping around & all that while shooting enemies whereas the footage we've seen of Noctis using a gun makes him seem far clumsier with it.
Why not? Everything's been phenomenal so far
That driving video reminds me I'll probably end up spending 15-20 hours just driving aimlessly if the Final Fantasy radio stations idea makes it in.

That didn't stop them to show the car drive vídeo running on a PS4.

welp, not agree at all.
Four is a lot if you want them all to have some depth & in the quality of FFXV, not to even mention balancing & designing the whole game with fucktons of different kinds of enemies around four completely different playable characters that all should be useful/able to fight against every enemy.
And please don't use dumb criticism like throwing around "mary sue" complaints if you don't understand what it means.

Ah ok. First I thought you were serious then when I saw KH2 i knew that I read a troll post.

You make it sound like it'd be easy to design this game completely around 4 different characters.

I'm thinking anywhere between September and December.
...which is a pretty broad range, granted.

I really wouldn't count on this. Tabata went out of his way to be extremely clear that thunder, blizzard and fire were the only three elements for elemental spells. The ring magic may differ somewhat, but I wouldn't get hopes too high for a huge diversity of spells.

Did this guy ever comeback and elaborate on this comment?
Personally I haven't seen anything combat wise in the Witcher that comes close to this
As others have said, I imagine there will be those three elemental magics and the ring will give stuff like Ultima/Holy

People can compare the witcher all they want story,side quests,world whatever(even tho ones out and the other isn't) but comparing the combat and saying the witcher comes out on top...no

Is it just the development on PC, or is it eventually going to PC as well? I have not followed this game at all, but after seeing the footage I am curious what platforms it has been confirmed for beyond X1/Ps4.
