Final Fantasy XV - Main characters and Japanese voice cast revealed
- Thread starter duckroll
- Start date
I hope they don't do swimming; I've never liked how games will have people climb out of water and then start walking around like they're not utterly drenched and standing out like a sore thumb. (See: Ezio in all the AC games.)
I'd rather see some kind of gondola or boat-based system. However the regular people in this city get around.
Look at yourself in harsh lighting, my face is like Noctis in harsh light, that's what they are going for, Noctis doesn't look like this in the other picture because of lighting.
And yes men can take care of themselves like women, but even then young women often still have softer less harsh skin.
Anyway I'm sure Noctis is under a lot of stress, maybe that's part of it.
ULTROS!
People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.

Don't they always?
Anyways, we seriously don't have playable female character here? These 5 dudes and dudes only confirmed?

Prompto is definitely Cloud right after he washes his hair.

That dude that spoke with young Noctis at the table sounds really familiar, hear him in almost every anime lol.

People need to chill with the issue of lacking female characters. Chances are, these are main characters for only first few chapters of the game. No way would they introduce all the characters now. Thats how ff's always works.
Seriously, Square enix is the last company to complain about after releasing three games with female lead in this generation of dudebrah games.

Badass military tactician who wears glasses and can deftly handle a katana? That reminds me of Citan Uzuki from Xenogears. I hope he's not the traitor...

There must be at less 2 more party members and they have to be girls.
Unless they want to pull FFX-2 with all the party members being one gender.... but this is a MAIN FF game :\
Anyway... I'm cool with whatever they decide.

I don't see how Cor is actually hateable.
He's probably the most normal looking FF character I've ever seen.

Eh, let them knee jerk some more.

FF convention since FF4 is three female party members per game.
J-Pop boybands are usually comprised of twinks. There are at least two normal-looking, almost burly men (Gladiolus & Cor) in this group.
I don't see it either. If anything, I don't trust the guy with glasses. I never like guys with glasses though.

But...
Sunglasses =! Normal glasses
Living legends! I would sacrifice a lot to hang out with them!
Yes, Old political grunts FFXII vibes all over the place!
Based on what we've seen I love the new cast of characters compared to the past FF games. Starting with with FF X through XII I've really just hated the main cast. I would love to see in a future game the cast get more expansive and weird like the old games, but that probably won't happen with how much time they spend putting all these characters into the story.
On a side note thinking about Japan not receiving the Xbox One till late 2014 makes me think this is still a long time off, unless for the first time we get a worldwide release and MS just does not care at all. Yeah 13 basically sold nothing on the 360 but I can't see them being fine with XV being exclusive for a small window (even if Japan only).

Yeah, I don't recall FF games being such a sausage fest in ages.
I guess I could get behind a bromance edition.

There must be really strong market research that shows having younger protagonists makes games sell better. Don't really understand why they made noctis and stella younger. Reminds me of shoehorning the completely vapid and uninteresting Vaan and Penelo into an otherwise incredible game.

Stella is the only one that looks younger.
Noctis looks older than he did initially I think.(And less like a vampire)
Could be because Noctis gonna end up betraying them mid-game or something.

Of course it does, isn't that obvious? People generally like playing younger/more attractive characters.
It doesn't remove the fact that all of the rest of the cast (with the exception of Prompto) are considerably older than what we've come to expect with FF.

Ignis, Gladiolus and Cor look older than early twenties - otherwise you're making me feel really old
lolAnd I was including the other characters not in the OP as well, pink haired guy, obviously Noctis's father and the other older guy are much older than early twenties - even the girl with the black hair looks a bit more mature than early twenties.

Pretty much the first all-male cast since.. Final Fantasy I, I think?
BlazingDarkness

All this talk about an all-male cast, but I doubt that will affect sales at all. Hopefully, no one will take this the wrong way, but I think this is the first AAA Blockbuster game with a cast that is undeniably Asian. Prior Final Fantasy characters' nationality, with a few exceptions like Tidus, were obscured by the anime-influenced artstyle.

This is what I've been saying since Monday. It's really silly to believe they would unveil the entire playable party on day one. Square loves its marketing drip-feeds and Nomura loves his eleventh-hour dark horse characters.
Well, no use in spoiling all the party members now in an announcement trailer.
Nevermind.
I saw it, so thanks anyway
Ah, missed it. Good news though I take it?
On a side note, I think I found an image in the announcement trailer that might be the hooded guy's face. At 2:40 when the old guy and his troops are facing off with Regis, there's a blonde guy to the right of the old guy that is dressed differently from the other troops in the white.

Hah no way. Looks like EXILE: the video game version.
Woah dude, you're a little behind the times.
