They showed a new female character in one of the videos https://youtu.be/Hvrtc34WIE8?t=1m23s
Lol, that's a random NPC. These women were in the Duscae Demo with a few color variations.

Too soon bruh.
Ahhhh okay! Makes sense I was wondering why she looked so plain.
We have the best NPCs.

Nah, PS not Neo.
FFXV has been downgraded heavily since Duscae and MGSV was 1080p.
I don't even know what you're looking at to say FFXV's models are better, polygons do not equate to quality.

In the context of human characters, a higher poly model will in the context of a triple A video usually look a lot better than a lower poly model. Unless there's some unwritten metric that says otherwise. For instance, look at the hands, neck, and shoulders of Quiet and Paz, and compare them to a FFXV model, really big difference. MGSV's assets were designed with 360 and ps3 in mind. The hair as well, is way higher quality in FFXV.
But good lighting is equally important, maybe those FFXV character models could do with less polygons and still look the same as they do now.
It's a matter of dimishining returns if we're looking at the faces. The only reason FFXV's models are higher poly are because of fingers and the hair. Otherwise they're average and frankly poorly designed!

But FFXV has more complex lighting than MGSV...
Not really, FFXV faces could look more realistic but they have to adhere to Nomura same face syndrome instead of say scanning in and creating digital doubles of the actors.What does it say about MGSV's models if FFXV, a game with better looking character models, are average?

Please be in the english dub
I just don't agree with that. Not only do MGSV's look more realistic but they have more detail on them with better shading. I haven't seen a single impressive face in FFXV.
And to your other reply, does it really have more complex lighting? Because it doesn't look like it and the console version isn't using the GI they boasted about years ago.

That's the thing is no they don't. The SSS solution, hair rendering, poly count, etc. in FFXV is a lot higher quality than MGSV, I would recommend checking out the PC screenshot thread, a lot of MGSV, it does not hold up compared directly to next gen only games. And yes, it has more intensive lighting data.
Luna really was molded out of the ashes of stella
I thought we all knew they used the same base model? it saved time to repurpose the character design, even if they are not the same character.
People actually thought Luna was Stella before Tabata officially confirmed that Stella was no longer in the game.

That hairstyle is perfection

Luna's hairstyle is better than what we saw of Stella's.
I like straight hair better. So i can't agree ><

I wanna know how to do that ponytail!
LMAO, this is amazing.
First Brotherhood, now this. I'm loving this character now.
Best Bro keeps on being best Bro.
I don't even see the SSS in FFXV and I can't imagine where you're getting the idea there is more intensive lighting. Poly count means little in this era when it comes to models. There are last-gen games with better looking models than FFXV and MGSV both.
