I had no idea Nomura was borrowing so much from FF12 for Versus…..

Dudebro, My Shit is Fucked Up So I Got to Shoot/Slice You II: It's Straight-Up Dawg Time
I guess it is appropriate that I post this here. I am never one to post false rumors or speculation, but I can reveal the following from a source that is 100% reliable and has brand new information. If this turns out to be false within the next few months, you can ban my account and that of my children's children. Actually, it won't even take months.

Source asked me not to reveal specifics, but the game IS coming soon and WILL be shown soon. Tons of progress has been made to rebuild most of the game from the ground up and when people see it, they are going to understand the reason for the delay.

Game will not be called Versus anymore...so put two and two together and you'll understand what's going on. This IS the future of where all FFs are going in terms of look and gameplay.

Anyway, reveal soon and it will be glorious beyond all of our wildest dreams. Those who kept the faith alive were not in vain.

EDIT: Also, the information revealed by one of the previous leaked sources is 100% accurate.
Wasn't that the Kotaku rumor Square or whoever denied?

Kotaku's rumor was the other way around. They were saying the game got canceled. Hopefully I have reached out the truth to the public.

I thought the rumor was that Versus got cancelled and turned into FFXV, no?

God it is freezing outside right now. Feels like 15 below outside.

Think I might take a little nap.

Very exciting if true. I am already looking very forward to LR with much zeal :)D), I really do want to see if this wait for Versus has been worth it. For people whining about how 13 has 'destroyed' the brand, we all know a new FF with a different style will draw those who did not like 13 back in right away.

edit: nice hint lol I am not sure why Versus can't be 15 and still have the FNC mythology either.

Not really. Rumor was, Versus got canceled, and that is it. Besides, I used to be against the idea of Versus turning into FFXV, but slowly I am coming around to it.

Don't believe his lies. Zeal is trying to mimic Verendus in order to make him transpire as a joke character of all sorts. He's exposed now.

I thought it was one of the best outside of X and VII

It's too hands off for me. I preferred 13's combat to it, actually. Because at least in 13 when you throw away the "auto-battle" option you have a fastpaced combat system where you have to make quick choices to win. 12's was just too slow for me.
 
Versus or XV, I'm just ready for it.

Actually, XV would be fitting... the series has been trios per gen all along AND since VII it has followed a pattern:

7. Sci Fi
8. MMO
s didn't exist yet
9. Medieval Fantasy

10. Sci Fi
11. MMO
12. Medieval Fantasy

13. Sci Fi
14. MMO
15. Medieval Fantasy

(Versus was allegedly a fantasy game after exiting the initial, modern-day themed city)

So... I'm all for them just making it FFXV.

The concept art in FFXII was amazing.

I can't wait to see what they have in store for Versus... (Besides character art, I mean... as awesome as Noctis is, variation is nice!)

Zeal is a liar. See how he backed out as soon as I've exposed him. All of this being a cautiously thought-out plan to decimate all Lightning fans from NeoGAF. You guys grind their gears, you guys are the worst. I mean, who in their right mind would find Lightning appealing? She just feels so disconnected from the rest of the game. No worries tho. I've got your back, folks. All I have to do first is getting over my own demons. We all know how the story ends once the hero has managed to do that.

Actually in that case, I'd love to hear an elaborate description of what he saw. It's not his NDA he's breaking, if there even was one. I'd love to hear a fully detailed rundown of what his, "100% reliable source" that told him. He's really got nothing to lose. It's his friend that would be in trouble if anything.

Chances are most of this thread comprises a large amount of "creative writing" anyway...

He honestly hasn't said anything that SQEX hasn't already said themselves. Game is still being made, will be shown this year, will look amazing (Hashimoto has been bragging about it for a while), will be the future of FF (they've already said they've got their eye on action RPGs for a while), has a new lighting engine, looks very different from when we last saw it.

The only other thing he added is the name change, which is just obvious at this point. Whatever it turns out to be, it won't be FF Versus XIII.

Anyway, hopefully we see it soon. I'm sure it'll be pretty awesome, even if it has Prompto (lol) in it.

You got it. Pretty much only the OP is legit. Everything else is illusion, cautiously spoken in riddles. FF GAF's community jokes in a word.

Edit: And yeah, as Shinta said, Zeal just rehashed what SE already stated themselves. Three persons claimed to be insiders in this thread. Only one actually is.

The Destination PlayStation event on 25th Feb sits nicely now to discuss about PS3 and PS4 games. Will Versus be a part of it? ;]

Real insiders rarely post things even if they know a lot though. NDAs can be really destructive sometimes.

If you are going to say "I heard from a friend" then it's better not to post at all.

Then you've figured who is the actual insider out of that pile. I don't post a whole lot myself, either. I would much rather witness, silently.

I can't even recall the last time an, "inside source" leaked something profound.

They should change the name though... I know I used to say they shouldn't... but they should now. Time to distance it from the FFXIII name and start anew.

FF: Versus or another number works imo. Versus always looked so completely disconnected from 13. Even with it first debuted.

Also, just curious, Kagari, what was this implying???:

"Guys...

you were suppose to...

...

. "

That they shouldn't talk about something they were told or shown? Kinda seemed like a load of crap, but you are pretty on top of this stuff, which made me curious. Feel free to not comment about that if you don't want to lol. I'll completely understand.

God damnit that sucks. One of the worst parts of FF12 was its horrible level design, it never felt like a "world map" rather just a fricken terrible hub system game. I don't want tons of hubs, I want a giant world map that its fun to ge around and explore like FF7 -9.

I wish they'd go back to Stella's old design. Her new design is a little too "cute" looking and doesn't fit as well as her old one.
