The XV team is over 350 people.

I don't think it will, but really it needs to. 3 years since the announcement by mid 2016....

Why would it be a problem?
You speak as if this was some sort of competition. The remake has done nothing to tarnish the hype about FFXV.

Why stop there? XVI to be a MOBA!
I'm guessing it'll appear briefly at Square Enix' E3 conference if they have one. Just simply show off promotional renders of Cloud, Barret and maybe Tifa and Aerith or something along those lines.
Though not here on GAF, I remember this was a commonly used argument when discussing a possibility of a remake with realistic graphics

I wish the direction they gave the game was a little less cheesy tbh. But I'm still excited.
Plus XV should wrap up about a year earlier than FF7R, never mind as XV get's further in the development, people that focus on early development will roll off of XV and onto 7R.
I imagine many will move on to XVI, too, for what it's worth.

Yeah, at most it will be a something like that, a short tech sample or even just a mention of when they will share more information next.
Oh yeah... I always forget that is sneaking up. But that most certainly is a "2020(lol)" title. They have so much on their plate right now.

I dont mind them showing up once every 6 months.

The 350 ish team includes coders, asset creators, modellers etc...
So I would imagine it would be a case of some of XV's creative team moving on to other projects (like XVI) and the others mentioned above moving on to projects like VIIR.
Yup, all true of course. Just thought it was worth consideration! XVI will be a thing and it will release at some point, eventually. Heh.

The scale is overwhelming. I'm having doubts as well of the extent they will go to recreate the entire world in this engine. Witcher 3 had a huge world as well and pulled it off very well. The developers here have all of the designs, lore, story and gameplay already in place. They just have to create it and fill it so it may be possible.
I guess idiots thinking CPR is sexual?
I'm more interested in how they'll do Mr Dolphin.

This game is going to be a roller coaster of emotions.

That one vocal song yoooooo. So good.
I mean, that depends on how XV and VIIr do, no?
I don't think XVI will be based on the predecessor's success. It will happen. Just like XVII.

I don't believe personally it depends on the success of the previous game, but more so the overall health of the company.
If both XV's and VIIR sales were under expectations then they would hope that the next major entry (XVI) would be the one to grow the brand again.
With each FF they aim to do that, they even had a deluded hope that even XIII could be the next VII. As long as the company has financial and strategical capability then they will keep making them.
If there was a continual decline that's when you would see less AAA, downsizing and shift to mobile etc....
I think we're safe with the current projects and at least XVI, but beyond that is unpredictable.

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
Not yet unfortunately.

Kitase, and I think Tabata, did say the different FF development teams see one another as rivals of sorts and are all competing to make the best FF games.
Nomura has raised the bar quite high with this trailer. Tabata will have to step up his game now (no pun intended) because I don't think a few screenshots, puzzling tweets and vague interviews are going to generate the same level of excitement as this trailer did.
Already know Biggs/Wedge/Jessie scene is going to be hard to watch :<

Eh, I can handle Wedge if he sounds like that.
Sorry to rain on your parade guys ,but....
CC was terrible!
Hope they make FF7R without any consideration of that trash.

Yeah I think this is definitely the case. As people have said that was definitely Burton and I definitely hear Billingslea in Barret's lines.

Well the next big trailer should come in March. It's not like there is no plan to do anything like that.
Zack's one note ,cheery hero-type character and
hisoverly dramatized,cheesy death scene didn't do it for me.
Not to mention Genesis,Angeal and a pretty weak implementation of Zack~Aeris relationship.
It just didn't do for me.If they're gonna be faithful to the original(which they seem to be) keep Zack contained in the same role he had originally and keep his actually
gruesome end.
Agree 100% fuck CC.
Meccanical
Member
100% agree.
Zack's death in CC was over dramatic as fuck and way too damn shonen anime.
FF7 was actually surprisingly realistic.
Preach it!

With how vast the FFXV overworld seems to be, I don't see why this would be a problem--at least from a technical perspective. Asset creation is another beast, though. "Overworlds are hard"?
Yeah his death seems more Trauma inducing in the original.Like fuck he died a dog's death,deal with it cloud.
No angels,little lights and passing of the torch.Its just treacherous murder.
I wonder if they can keep such a scene in the remake.I doubt it.
