To be fair, the Madden demo was a CG target render. This is running in real time.
Final Fantasy real time tech demo - Luminous Studio [Up3: Survey/Screens/Video]
- Thread starter jiggle
- Start date
Witcher 2 and bf3 are next gen games welp.
When People are getting a taste of what next gen is now, they will get blown away especially from first party studio even more so.

Ditto. Not that I want a Lightning retread (not my thing,) but I don't want a protagonist that sounds like a little girl.

I mean, do people really look at this image, look at a current gen game, and then go "Woah that's entirely impossible!"?
I mean, his collar low-ish resolution, his hair is kind of janky. This isn't exactly insanity.

Looks very very interesting, glad they toned down the JPop style in this one, but still kept the characters distinctly eastern. Not sure if I like the COD terrorists as enemies though, felt out of place to me.
all these tech demo is making me sad!ice burn on dat dead choco

They're more than likely using this as a way to gauge reactions to the setting and characters. If it gets good enough reception, we may very well see it used in some way or another.
haha
Nomura didn't design these. Akira Iwata did. Nomura was just an adviser. At least according to these credits:

Next-Gens bread and butter is going to be lighting and rendering engines. Along with improved particles, and improved poly count to make faces look amazing, but thats really all they need. Everything else can remain fairly low res, with more clutter.
Pretty much.
Thats why i feel in motion, tech demos look awesome and people are going to get thier mind blown by ue4
After seeing that Beyond game on a current gen console, I kind of agree with you.

That was pretty good and if thats what next gen is gonna bring then i'm interested
Same, some truly inspired art direction.

I briefly mentioned that shaky cam detracts from overall scene direction. Also mentioned that a plethora of colours with this engine's lighting would look magnificent.
I also briefly mentioned the voicework as well, but otherwise it looks good in terms of art direction.

The more third party engines the better. Keeps games looking different enough and thus more interesting.

This is Akira Iwata's work, not Tetsuya Nomura's.
Only disappointing aspect I suppose, is that it looked like it was rendered in 1080p, but may have still had no AA applied. At the very least, it's still suffering from the long standing spectral highlight aliasing that I wish we'd get a good solution for, even post-processed/shader AA solutions like FXAA don't really quite make that stuff quite look quite right.
Seriously, half of what I liked about the change in "mood" from traditional SE JRPG fair is the music. Whoever that Robert Duncan is that's credited for the music should be hired for a game immediately.

I usually go with a plain colour wallpaper to match my theme but I've made an exception for this.

I'd love to see Square Enix tackle someone else's fantasy world in these tech demos. Song of Ice and Fire maybe? It would be cool to see someone running out of a city as Targaryens burn down it with their dragons. Anybody else have fantasy worlds that they would like to see realized in a tech demo?

Here's what I posted for feedback on the survey:
"I think the world is too brown. I want lush green worlds like Pulse of FFXIII. The hero's hair is too short and should be an unnatural colour."
Hope Square listens.

This is completely unrelated, but remember the original MGS4 trailer? That had tell-tale signs of being real. Oh how wrong we were.
Who knows how close next-gen games will be to this tech demo, but it certainly meets my expectations.
Ugh, me too.
Now i look at TLOU and think "give me Next Gen, please"
Dark Souls with those graphics is what i was thinking about, watching it.
Just imagine fighting, like, Capra Demon or exploring Anor Londo, with them graphics, goddamnit.
Well, a man can dream, but the all the report of underpowered consoles are scary.

G***n S**n*bi
And I hope it gets lost in the shuffle.
I feel it would also be kind of weird if a ton of companies were investing what must cumulatively be hundreds of millions of dollars in technology that won't work on next-gen consoles.

But isn't that like assuming all of FFXII takes place in a desert because of Rabanastre?

Goddamn that looks amazing. SE can still bring it graphically.
Right, the city shown at the very end looked like it would have a completely different vibe from where the video is set. If there's one thing that Final Fantasy does well, it's creating a variety of environments.

I told them it was spot on. So was versus till they added the cool and hip characters.
If they cut that out and age all their characters everything else will take care of itself.
