I'm not sure what's worse, her visual design or accent. It's amazing how shitty it is and how much it stands out in the game.
Still, I wouldn't write the whole game off because of her, even with my immense distaste for her.
There might be other reasons to write it off lol
You forgot the part where the camera zooms around and behind her ass, giving everyone a good look.
So tasteless & juvenile.
Don't expect most to understand, but I just don't have the time or patience for that insulting pandering anymore.

Now, I'm no fan of her design either, but you have either been living under a rock when it comes to... media in general or you are just being overly sensitive. What year it is makes no difference...
Lets not forget that compared to most of Japan's offerings this and last year, this is tame.

With this shitty engine? Let's just hope fps is stable along with the hair.
Unless they pull a FF14 black voodoo magic.
He'll be in shock once he watches Suicide Squad.
Maybe. I always assume the graphic looks worse was due to them wanting this Gamescom build to have steady fps.

oh, that was FF-XV
Sure, because 1 pandering character makes the whole game ruined, right?
Considering that everyone and their cat in every FF15 thread already shits on the design (which I also don't like), the way you seem to insinuate that a small portion of the game ruins it is quite Juvenile in and of itself.
Hate and criticize the outfit all you want, but if 1 character's design is gonna mess the whole game up for you, then you have issues.
Don't expect too much, but maybe some better AA and framerate fixes. Don't expect much else imo.
Hence why I'm gonna play this on Neo, and maybe an eventual PC release (not port begging, just an expectation).
The game needs all the estrogen it can get

or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Realize This Assgrab is Delicious
People tend to make a lot of noise when they don't like a sexualized female, but almost no one dares write a post about how they rather enjoy it....
I pray that is what it will look like on PC, but given SE's track record I have little faith in them to deliver a quality PC port...
Anyway,
RIP Xbone version.
Bug fixing and optimization (AF, textures, pop in).
I don't think Tabata has ever made a comment about games running in fear or whatever?
Well, they said they were going to fix the texture pop-in that we saw in the gameplay vid and that press and people on Gamescom experience. They can do that.
They also might fix some of the anisotropic filtering issues. (Other developers did fix this with patches, like in the Witcher 3 on PS4 and even in PS4 Duscae Demo they added anisotropic filtering in places like the Chocobo Ranch with the 2.0 patch). AF imo can really help to improve visual quality a lot.
Other than that? No, not really. What we saw in the master version is pretty much what we get. They only can polish what we have now a little.
I'm worried for Xbox One owners. The game looked really, really rough on there... :/
Let's just hope they give it to nixxes.
If their PC port ends up looking anything like this I'll instantly upgrade my PC.
What is is like to live in ignorance?
Hexa Drive would be good, have they worked on PC ports?
From a large JP company known WW, a long series with some really strong female characters (not all which are specialized, some are though), you can and should expect more. Saying "oh it's Japan" really doesn't excuse it.
That said, I don't really care because I'm gay and want an alt shirtless Gladio outfit. But for the first female Cid (which she isn't as we know, but still), they could've done better. Oh well, maybe in XVI.
Type-0 which was a better port than 13 and 13-2

I kinda want nixxes since they add PC specific stuff.

Hello, my name is Yves Guillemot, Vivendi S.A.'s Employee of the Month!
I find the irony about this fact to be hilarious considering the purpose behind her design.
More that I just have a sense of what does and doesn't work for me. And what I chose to support with my time and money.
I don't care if it's one character. It more more importantly reflects the developer's stance on female objectification. And as I said, it's something I have little patience for these days.
Not harping on those who look past it. That's just fine. I'm only talking about myself here.

Well guys. If you want to run a torrent, this is 8 GB.

Honestly, Youtube destroys the IQ of this game. I mean, it's not a looker. It really isn't. For an open-world game in 2016, it just isn't impressive. But the game looks a lot better in this high-bitrate version of the video than it does on Youtube. Unfortunately the framerate hitching is also more apparent, Squenix really needs to do something about that between now and November 29th.
Unfortunately a higher bitrate doesn't improve the quality of the voice acting.

Yep.
I don't like Cindy because her accent and way of talking is annoying, her purpose in the game is not anything in particular besides eye candy, and her clothes don't actually accentuate any curves.
They are going to dress her like that but make her a generic barbie doll in terms of proportions and instead of realistically proportioned as a female to actually do their job in regards to titillation, its sickening.
Tifa was 80 billion times the sexualized female character in terms of quality, beacuse she actually had a character. The fact that she shared main heroine role with aerith and kicked ass made her even better.
See what i'm saying? Its worse to have a character like Cindy if she's so transparently for a single purpose and not about anything in particular. It makes me wonder where the heads of the designers were at when developing her, but of course this is the same developement staff that said that fans disliked Cindy being sexualized as a woman but wanting women in the party was a contradiction
Doesn't improve the Dreamcast level tree sprites either.
Consider this: a female picks up this game to play, sees Cindy in the opening segment, and returns it to the store.
You just got a returned copy. You had the chance to expand the audience to include more female audience, instead you doubled down and created female characters that pandered to the juvenile tastes of males instead of creating female characters that females might be interested in.
In the west, they are putting up Horizon Zero Dawn, Dishonored 2, Mirror's Edge. Female characters that do not look like shitty Cindy.
It's a business product. Don't whine about how "it's your fault if one female character ruins the game for you". Is it the player that has issues, or is it the designer's problem for producing a sexist and gross design? Are we saying the consumer is wrong for rejecting garbage? How about not designing those kinds of female characters so your audience can expand and you might actually hit 10 million sales again someday? In this climate where the competition is so fierce? Yes, one pandering character ruins a whole game.

It's a problem, but we have guest party members like Iris and she's fine.

The irony is that Square Enix said she wasn't designed with sex in mind when she obviously was. Tut tut. I really dislike her.
Same, the only way I see her showing up later is if something happens to the car.
Does she fight? I would have loved to see Iris be a bigger part of the story on par with the octobros and cor
That's the problem. She has no purpose unlike the other females. They could have just showed old Cid first fixing the car without Cindey existing and it would not have made any difference to the end product. Which makes her actual point in the game too transparent to accept, leering camera and all.

That's kind of what makes her such a weird inclusion.

Watching the part where the Zu flies away, the bushes are hilariously bad too. Any cutscenes where the camera is close to the ground, you can see the shitty quality grass and bushes and the horrible low-res textures.
I still want to see the original development PC version before Squenix went Ubisoft on it and hacked it down to fit on the PS4. The complete lack of anisotropic filtering in 2016 is quite impressive, I think even Ubisoft titles manage some level of anisotropic after their downgrades.
This reporter guy's voice LMAO, I actually think he's worse than Cindy. Hearing it a second time, I just can't. Thank God they are giving us the JP voice work as a downloadable option.
Also, the increased clarity of the 8 GB video makes it absolutely obvious every time it switches to Bone footage and suddenly resolution becomes sub-1080p and texture detail drops from roughly early 360/PS3 era quality to what appears to be same-as-PS2 quality.
