Are combat changes(improvements?) just in the multi-player portion? I've read the base game combat is kind of lackluster
Final Fantasy XV's multiplayer actually does let you play as a female character

What the fuck. When did FFXV add multiplayer?????
It's not released yet. The beta trial just came out today though.

Wait, I'm a little out of the loop here and I'm just staring at this thread title and pondering on the reason for this thread's existence. Was this ever in doubt? Was that poll in the other thread serious? Because I just naturally presumed you would be able to create a female avatar, and I didn't see any reason why I should doubt that. Can you imagine the shitshow that would ensue if they for whatever reason restricted you to males? Even Square Enix would duly recognise the terrible optics of that...

I can assure you ppl were dead serious. It's ffxv on gaf

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.
There's a fine line being negative but addressing critical issues in a concise matter and being negative that eventually screws up your mind.

I'm pretty sure the people thinking that any company on earth would be idiotic enough to release an online multiplayer mode where you can only create male characters were just taking the piss because the thread was about FFXV.
You underestimate the level of irrational stupid that XV threads around here exhibit.
Again, the fact that the poll existed and got that bad in the first place is just fucking stupid, because the OP included screenshots WITH female characters in them.
So, i'm assuming this thread exists just for the few people who may step into an XV thread wanting information, and may not be completely aware of just how deep the hatred goes.

The other OP has pictures feauturing woman since its beginning, aka, the day it was created. So yeah, that poll was kinda pointless.

I'm guessing the poll was there just for fun.

Really? Usually the fun polls are usually more obvious. It didn't even had a Thanos option!

The bias side in me thinks that a certain mod made the poll (not going to say who it is) so maybe in their eyes this wasn't a playful topic?
Either way it's hilarious to look back on.

What, and no Thor 2: The Dark World (heh, this probably would have been partially appropriate for this context I...think?) option? Amateurs.

Wait did they just update the beta or was it an observation that we all missed? Cause it'd be so cool if they did!screenshot dump. They've also improved the hair shaders and skin shaders.
The base game's combat lives and dies on whether you are willing to experiment with the game's combo sets and special actions.
Example: https://youtu.be/ctEo6r61kuE
Unfortunately most people don't even know these combos and special actions even exist, and because of how items and magics work in the game, they just hold attack or hold defend and use items when needed. Hence the stigma of "lackluster combat".
Basically, for the vast majority of the game for the vast majority of players, little actual skill is needed, and so people just use attrition leading to people getting bored and thinking the game is stale.
That said, it seems like these combat improvements are pretty nice, though most of that delves into what has been omitted rather than what has been added
No update, it was just hard to tell in youtube streams. I just d/l the beta and noticed. They've definitely refined other stuff in addition to updating the hair rendering and physics.
i honestly had no idea...

The more shocking part of it all is those women character/avatars have clothes on. Didn't think Square had it in them to be that courageous

smh....
the first promos I saw were 4 really generic looking dudes.
I didn't doubt this, but it's nice that it's confirmed.
Yeah, this looks stylistically very in line with Kingsglaive designs, instead of the still somehow anime-inspired Nomura and Ferrari inspired designs of the main game.

I take it you've never seen Final Fantasy XIV then
The vast majority of outfits in that game are full garments, the few that are generous are equally as generous for males
There really is nothing shocking about any of this. People are just being obtuse for some reason lol
I've tried to start quick play from Cor three times now, I've gotten an error each time and was sent back to the title screen, forced to go through all that loading again...
I've not managed to play the beta once. Error-1 every time. (Xbox version)

Dont use quick play. Use custom
AlexFlame116

Custom works a lot better than quick play in my experience so far.
Ugh come on guys.
When's the last time you actually played an FF?
Even in FFXV, the majority of women are clothed. Cindy is the worst offender, Aranea is pushing it (Yet is armored) but Luna, Gentiana, and Iris are properly clothed, as are almost all the NPCs. I get that you were trying for a hot take, but there are so many other BRAVE COMMENTS you could have made.

One of the main games core themes is brotherhood. So it made sense in that case.
But yes, it's nice to play female characters in this world. Feels good.
*Looking back at Lightning Returns*
*Also looking back*
A handful expose midriff, a couple are skimpy/bikini type. The rest are ful outfits/garments.

Brofest ≠ Brotherhood though.
didn't the female power plant workers in lestallum have protective clothing with a crotch window showing off their short shorts

Those Lightning Returns outfits are abominable and honestly put me off from wanting to check the game out, particularly when each costume is practically its own mini-job or something or the like. Barely any of those costumes fit her, most are garish vomits of shapes and colour, and Lightning herself looks like she is in desperate need for some sandwiches, because good grief. You can probably snap her like a twig.
I'm genuinely looking forward to seeing what the final character creator will look like. I'm not expecting anything near Black Desert, but it's easily giving FFXIV a run for its money. At this point in FFXIV I swear everyone just has the same few faces and hair, particularly when the Miqo'te and Au Ra players are so plentiful.

Yup, some were wearing this unfortunate getup.
Granted, I did say almost all. Not everyone was spared from poor design. Holly is mostly bundled up in her thermal suit in comparison, but shows cleavage. I imagine the excuse for the designs is "it's hot AF there".

An actually good character creation option in a rpg? Well maybe aside from Black desert..
HAHAHAHAHAHA that was suppose to be factory clothing!?

I would be shocked if you couldnt just buy it individually like you can with Episode Prompto/Ignis/Gladilous.
