Perfect looking skin to you means weirdly airbrushed or what?
Compare it to Noctis' and the others', it's basically flawless.

It having some textures and pores doesn't make imperfect.

New girl is obviously wearing makeup. Her face is riddled with sunspots. She has slight wrinkles under her eyes. Her skin is tight near her nose.

That is not flawless.

Stella is zoomed out so you can't see down to the pore level, but even then you can still see a few sunspots.

That is not flawless.

 

[Fuu]

I guess it was a matter of time.

So fitting that Shimomura (goddess) is responsible for that one too.

 

[Rogue_Ledr]

There a release date on this?

 

[sappyday]

There a release date on this?

No.

 

[Holly Caust]

There a release date on this?

Tomorrow, surprise release.

 

[Laughing Banana]

What, no playable female MC?

Huh.

Also, what kind of parents name their kid Prompto anyway. Such a stupid sounding name.

 

[Big0Bear]

Final fantasy host club edition, still reserving judgment until release though the game is looking hella cool right now

 

[Spongebob]

There a release date on this?

Nothings been said about release date, but according to Verendus they are targeting 2014.

 

[Meccanical]

The same kind of parents that name their kids Oliver.

 

[HeelPower]

I can imagine the dark haired girl being a complete badass bitch and literally stepping on Prompto.

Yup I think she is gonna be one of the most ruthless characters in the series lol

I hope these guys have a big number of costumes each. I really hope FF implements change in appearance based on equipment this time.Its a little grip of mine when characters have 1 appearance for an entire game.

 

[Stark]

I can imagine the dark haired girl being a complete badass bitch and literally stepping on Prompto.

She still looks like Dead Master.

 

[Baleoce]

i wonder how they are going to approach the battle system in this game. ie. the feeling of you, the player commanding a group. think they will do something like gambit again? the snippets we saw seemed very focused around noctis.

 

[Lime]

Then why can't you consider some of these guys Asian?

I don't think Tidus and these 5 guys look alike. The former looks more Polynesian or Hawaiian, imo. Nevertheless, my point was only aimed at the homogeneity of the main cast - seeing how there's FIVE of them, it's disappointing to me none of them could represent e.g. Blacks or Latinos.

Hopefully one or two of them are non-heterosexual or maybe even transgender (without making a big deal out of it)

He's Okinawan, BTW.

I would rather have them go with how the cast was envisioned originally. The cast's always been like that for years. And not all attractive men need to be gay

 

[spuit*11]

So I unscrewed the perspective on that poster pic somewhat.

Legendary stuff.

Also, why would homogeneity be a bad thing exactly? Especially in a fictional fantasy setting where they all look ethnically ambiguous to begin with.

 

[sappyday]

Finally, the two legends of convoluted stories meet.

 

[Meccanical]

Nomura and Kojima in the same pic.

I can't take it.

 

[Spongebob]

Whoa.

 

[Ghazi]

METAL GEAR SOLID XV: THE PHANTOM

Spoiler

vaporware

GAME

 

[Lime]

He's Okinawan, BTW.

Thanks, I was wondering about that. Nice to know.

Haha, yeah, it's perfectly fine they continue with whatever vision they originally had - I just would like to see a larger swath of diversity in character representation when I think there's a possibility for it.

 

[Pop On Arrival]

All the character designs annoy me greatly. Also, the dude in glasses is gonna betray Noctis.

 

[Paches]

Imagine them making a story line together.

 

[Caelestis]

So much swag. D:

 

[jschreier]

Still irrationally excited for this game.

 

[hateradio]

If I didn't know any better, I would think that it was Kojima and his wife. :lol

I hope these guys have a big number of costumes each. I really hope FF implements change in appearance based on equipment this time.Its a little grip of mine when characters have 1 appearance for an entire game.

I really dislike Cor's boots, so I do hope we can change things around.

 

[Meccanical]

Still irrationally excited for this game.

Aren't we all.

Let's hope it turns out well this time.

 

[CSX]

So Noctis is Tohno Shiki confirmed?

 

[Soriku]

They should team up for an RPG.

 

[Manu]

So I unscrewed the perspective on that poster pic somewhat.

Looks a lot better now. Thanks!

 

[Blick Winkel]

Anyone else think the dragoon girl from the original trailers has some sort of significance.

 

[Meccanical]

Imagine them making a story line together.

Imagine a story so convoluted...it makes perfect sense.

 

[The Last One]

Tomorrow, surprise release.

The ultimate redemption, release the game before the platform

 

[Yellowflashdude]

Noctis is said to be shy so that could explain his lack of close female companions.

 

[UrbanRats]

New girl is obviously wearing makeup. Her face is riddled with sunspots. She has slight wrinkles under her eyes. Her skin is tight near her nose.

That is not flawless.

A sunspot!
I don't know why you keep using a literal definition of flawless, when i'm clearly not (besides, we clearly have a different definition of "flaw", here).

They still do not compare to the level of skin complexion they used on most of the other characters (minus the hooded one), including Noctis, and you don't need make up, to not have eyes this red:

Maybe Noctis has been crying a lot...
--
Just to be clear, i don't have real a problem with it, but i do think it looks weird.

 

[Exentryk]

Needs a release date. =/

 

[raven777]

yea two of my favorite developers.

 

[rataven]

All the character designs annoy me greatly. Also, the dude in glasses is gonna betray Noctis.

This again? I don't get. Is there something about wearing glasses that screams backstabbing traitor?

 

[Zoe]

I hope these guys have a big number of costumes each. I really hope FF implements change in appearance based on equipment this time.Its a little grip of mine when characters have 1 appearance for an entire game.

Nooooo, that means less beautiful prerendered CG!

 

[Urban Scholar]

This again? I don't get. Is there something about wearing glasses that screams backstabbing traitor?

Anime/jrpg trope/cliche'

 

[Meccanical]

This again? I don't get. Is there something about wearing glasses that screams backstabbing traitor?

Smart people are evul.

 

[Yellowflashdude]

Smart people are evul.

I don't get this association of people wearing glasses with being smart.

 

[Soriku]

I don't get this association of people wearing glasses with being smart.

That's another trope. But anyway, his character description:

A childhood friend of Noctis who grew up recieving gifted education befitting a staff officer.

 

[TheLight]

So I unscrewed the perspective on that poster pic somewhat.

damn they are clean as fuck

 

[rataven]

Anime/jrpg trope/cliche'

Smart people are evul.

Gotcha. I realize it's just as tropey, but Ignis seems more like the sexy nerd type. Though I suppose that's just my crush talking.

 

[PowderedToast]

nomura is legit pretty

why do they both like horrible t shirts

 

[Desi]

If I can get a Vosselor level of betrayal I would be pleased. "I am the people of Dalmasca!"

 

[PlanetSmasher]

If I can get a Vosselor level of betrayal I would be pleased. "I am the people of Dalmasca!"

I was just saying earlier in the thread that I'm getting a Vossler vibe from Cor, actually. He just seems like the type.

 

[Shadow780]

So....if you put their names together then it became

NOJIMA :OOOOOOOO
