Music is getting really good now.
Just have to ask a couple dumb questions as I haven't really been following the FF love lately.
1) This is a demo available for download?
2) It's $60?
It's insane. I've been playing Phantasy Star 2 on the Wii a bit lately and looking at this streaming video.... I'm like wooooaaaahhh.
I tried to play Final Fantasy 10. Just never got into it. Didn't even tough the next ones.
I can't believe how good these things look now. It's INSANE.
I miss having time to put into a RPG. Those were the days. lol

Yeah, I'm about to head out, but the most significant complaint I have is that the level design in the demo is lazy crap, with really neat backgrounds. My biggest fear was that from the past two Final Fantasy titles, which have had expansive worlds which really began to recapture the feeling of exploration lacking from modern FF titles, we would return to FFX-like level design. A very long, generally connected corridor with extremely view divergent paths. The backgrounds were always pretty, but the actually going through the dungeons was kinda [SUPER FUCKING] boring.
Since I only have this demo to judge by it's "too early to tell" how significant it will be throughout the game, but this level is so much like Zanarkland part of FFX that it's hard not to be a little worried about it.
+ Enemies on the screen
+ Visuals
+ Music
+/- Battle System
- Long Corridor Level Design ZZZZ
- Advent Children inspired action

hooooooooooly shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit talk about dragging things out.
This is bar none, my favorite game series of all time, but I gotta say, this stretch of endless futuristic road is getting pretty boring to look at now. Scene change please.
Hell, even the battle music is getting I'm on my nerves now.

"Very standard FF-like action" has become, sadly for Final Fantasy, Advent Children esque.
Unfortunately for you, as we see from the juggling flying gravity defying bullshit during cutscenes and occasionally in battle, it makes your failure of a joke even more of an epic failure.

I'm impressed with the FFXIII footage I saw.
For some reason the rocket launchers and cars in the FFVersus video kinda bother me.

what's the deal with Versus?
I had to stop watching, bandwidth cap nearly maxed out and all that jazz.

And even i am moderately surprised
i was due to get the demo tonight/tomorrow but i'm wondering whether to bother.
Reading this thread, it sounds like we're down the "on rails RPG" route - for the demo at least, i'm sure (i think) the final game won't be like that and this is just a battle show case.
