I want to believe, but everything they have shown so far sucks

Are we really gonna live in a world where we waited 10 years for this game only for it to suck?

It's gonna be good.

Its ggoing to be better than most open world rpgs in almost every aspect.

The combat is just going to be casual shit

I'm going to ignore every review and gaming forum thread for this game. I don't expect much but I want to play it with as a positive light as possible.

I mean I did the same for MGS V for a lot of months, found the game to be an easy 9/10 and then saw all the shitfest threads of lore morons talking their head canon shit.

When did you start to lose hope? For me it was the platinum demo.

I'm only going to buy it if it atleast looks as good as Duscae. Despite the piece of shit it has become, I'm still inlove with some of the character designs. If it doesn't atleast do that right, then no.

It's going to be inarguably "good"
People will complain it's too weeb/homo
People will complain the world is too empty
People will complain that fetch/kill quests are repetitive and not innovative
People will complain that Square didn't deliver as promised
People will complain about DLC
People will complain about framerate

Realistically, the game is going to have a ton of content
There's going to be scenes that create personal emotional ties to at least three of the main cast members and one of the villains, probably Regis too, if he doesn't die in the anime/movie haven't seen Kingsglaive yet
The extra content (inevitable superbosses, hidden summons, ultimate weapons) are going to feel worthwhile and well placed/thought out (save for one or two, which will feel forced and shoehorned)
The combat is going to be easy enough for entry level players, but complex enough that the bigger boss fights are going to take some planning/skill/cheesing
The soundtrack is going to be mesmerizing, despite Nobuo Uematsu not being involved
The story is going to be 8/10, independently good enough to stand on it's own, but won't overshadow Final Fantasy 7.
The romance will be mocked, syn Final Fantasy 8, the casual inspiration scenes will be mocked, syn HA HA HA HA HA HA HA syn Final Fantasy 10, the initial tagalong character (Prompto) is going to get the best development
The Main humanoid villain is going to be likable enough that the player will be able to empathize with him in his pursuit of ultimate destruction/domination
The Big Bad Evil Guy is going to fuck with time and Noctis & butt-buddies are going to be revealed as the "Warriors of light", or whatever the fuck they're calling them now.
Prediction: Noctis - Lightning, Ignis - Fire, Gladiolus - Earth, Prompto - Water
Prompto/Noctis might be swapped

Well this will probably be the last FF I buy at full price.

the game will be good.

Just a reminder that FFXV will do so well it'll spawn 12 more numbered series in the next 11 years

...

There's no romance in XV.
It's a political marriage and from what we know Noctis and Luna don't even interact on-screen.

Is it possible they'd let us use Punished Noctis for longer than just a final battle? As an alternative skin at least?

I don't know how feasible that is, I don't know if the two Noctis models have the same body or if Old Noctis is taller.

>Implying Noctis doesn't end up falling for Gladio's little sister and refusing the marriage to Luna given the fact that the sanction will mean nothing anyway as long as the imperials still keep control over Insomnia

Noctis is going to age progressively over the course of the game. Probably a LoZ-esque transformation where interacting with a certain scene will send him flying forward in time locally. This might happen twice, with young Noctis, adult Noctis and Punished Noctis, or possibly just the skip from young to Punished

Tabata described Noctis as currently disinterested in girls. Makes sense, it would distract yaoi fanfiction writers from giving him money.

All I want is a "manual" combat option. Holding a button down just doesn't work for me.

If the Brotherhood episode involving her, and the gameplay teaser with the "This is kind of like a date, huh?" scene didn't give away that there's something beyond just playful friendship, I don't know what will.

There is, they confirmed there is.

Try Type-0, it can work

I like his new design a lot, desu. And even if still not that similar, his ingame model looks closer to the original Noctis' design than the Cg render they released.

Post ghosts

A delayed game is never good

user have you actually interact with girls? Like, outside?

Source? I thought Tabata said their relationship is complicated and I doubt Noctis will be sticking around Luna after he gets the ring from her.

Regis standing behind him is probably a ghost.

>- We have included those themes but it'll be different to say Tidus & Yuna in FFX
That's basically a no.

I've already ordered the game user, I'll be playing it in November while I wait for XV. I'd try making a petition, maybe Tabata could add it in a patch or something

>Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth
>Mafia 2
>Half Life 2
>Tf2

>Stalker: SoC
>Too Human
>Bioshock
>LoZ: Wind Waker

Shut the fuck up

I'm getting married in March. Looking at Squeenix's history with character flirtation, it seems like the obvious route.

It literally says yes there is romance with Noctis and Luna but it's not a love story like with Tidus and Yuna.

>re we really gonna live in a world where we waited 10 years for this game only for it to suck?

Who makes this game?

mother 3

There were dialogue options to lightly flirt with Lulu in FFX and that didn't mean shit. Iris is just playing a hot guy. She's the Rikku/Yuffie/Vanille/Selphie archetype and they're always lightly playful or at least in as much as terrible Japanese writers can convey it.

This the first mainline FF game I refuse to play at all. Not interested. Hope it fails and if there is a FF16 it is NOTHING like this crap

It was already confirmed that Luna has romantic feelings for Noctis but Noctis doesn't know how to respond to those feelings yet.

I doubt it's gonna be more than few blushes and concerns for their well being.

>there is romance but not a love story
I'm getting mixed messages here.
Obviously it doesn't have to be a focus of the story at all but if all it is is the Homo Squad going IS LUNA OKAY? I WONDER IF LUNA IS FINE? HOW IS LUNA DOING without them actually interacting on screen once, then no, there's no romance in the game.

You can't play as him beyond the end.

This.

He's conflicted because he also has feelings for his comrades that may be more than just friendship.

Here's what happens.

Flashbacks to when they were little kids. Noctis did something kind to Luna. She loves him. Fast forward to present day. Noctis is off collecting dumb magic swords to save his country. Luna is off awakening summons for similar reasons. They meet and Luna dies either immediately or soon after.

They've been in contact with each other through a secret notebook diary for 12 years they sent back and forth

They meet up in Altissia.

>too human
>mafia 2
>alan wake
>L.A.noire
>tomb raider 2013
You really aren't helping your case.

Yeah, that's not a romance.

Were People mainly complaining about the Cg render?

Because the ingame model, even if different, doesn't look that different to younger Noctis, at all.

Noctis is awakening the summons and collecting the weapons. Luna is convening with the gods to prevent the plague of the stars. Luna told Noctis she'd be in Altissia and that's where Noct and and are headed.

I'm actually thinking it's kind of similar to Cloud and Tifa's relationship. Childhood friends with promises to each other.

Or Rem and Machina's relationship in Type 0 and both are also childhood friends (Also Tabata's game)

They never said this

>that may be more than just friendship.
Kys tumblr fag

I just want this turd out already so a new game can be made.

Cloud and Tifa kinda interact the entirety of the game though. Childhood friends is where they start, not the entirety of it.

>Luna is off awakening summons
You mean Noctis is awakening the summons. Ardyn literally says he'll take him to the Archaeans. Luna's job should be preventing the plague of the stars

It's pretty obvious though. They're trying to make people who dislike young Noctis design excited to play the game, but in reality this won't be more than a few minutes.

What are you even doing in this thread? The game is obviously not made for you.

see Noctis and Luna are in constant with each other 12 years since they met through secret diary that umbra and pryna send between them, even during the game until they get to Altissia where she is

Cloud and Tifa only briefly in a flashback where they weren't even really friends then years later they bump into each other

No it's more likely to happen midway through like with Cecil

Source?
That's pretty awful but I'll take it.

That'd ve great because I really like the new design and don't really like the old one.

But I really doubt it, and the would alienate people who prefer the original design.

Why is this a better character design than any XV design?
Maybe Aranea is better

If they can get the game running smoothly with the graphics maxed out, then it'll be a pretty damn good game. If they can't then it'll be a spectacular trainwreck.

It was shown in one of the trailers that Noct received a notebook from Umbra, which is similar to the notebook that they use to communicate with each other shown in Luna's Brotherhood episode screenshots.

>dark haired angry 30-something dude with a beard
I knew XV was missing something to be truly a modern AAA game

youtube.com/watch?v=OJNf9IiIlx0

Spoilers say that the reason why Noctis and Luna hasn't seen each other for 12 years is because Ravus locked Luna in a room during those years. Is that true?

What did they mean by this?

Their reaction for winning the Best RPG game at gamescom

This is the sound accounting will make after sales figures come in.

yeah because they had so much competition right

>that pop in
>that bland environment

I feel bait and switched.

Why did they show an hours worth of continuous footage knowing how shit it looks?

>Tabata: It is true that overall the PS4 has more graphics power than the Xbox One. Of course, as a developer we're trying to make the best of these two machines, but yes, there will be many graphical difference between the PS4 and Xbox One release. This is something we can not avoid. However, with the arrival of DirectX 12 on Xbox One, a lot of elements are alleviated in the rendering process. This allows us to work at a higher level that 'before. whether on PS4 or Xbox One, I am also emphasized that until now we had not yet fully optimized rendered [presented in demos]. We were not yet at the top of the quality possible, but with the additional two months, I hope we can reach an even higher level than where we are now.

>Gameblog.fr: Note that the PS4 version we've tried last week actually showed a significant technical advance over the Platinum demo

Why does no one seem to care about glasses-kun or muscle-chan

Gladio was the most popular according to the episode duscae feedback

>15 minutes just to say he's pissed the game is delayed
I thought he was going to talk about issues with the game itself.

Yes, It's Duke Nukem all over again.

Homo

I played it on gamescom, all the ecebs and vips skipped the 4 hour line and got to play on the ps4 while we got fucked and played on the cancer xbone version.

It was so bad someone's game crashed and lost his chance to play the whole thing, and the graphics/draw distance were so bad that I call the xbone version Cardboard Fantasy 15.

That line was so freaking long and huge at all time. Most of the time I could not even find where it begins.
In the end I just watched a bit on the big screen, the only thing I came for was to make sure that the German Dub does not suck dicks, and I was positively surprised.

>4 hour line
Game conventions fucking suck, I'll never understand people that go there to play games (aka standing in lines for hours to play 10 minutes of a demo that will be available at home after a month)

Funniest part is that I was in the very first group arriving at 6.30am to avoid that (pic related) and the fucker in front of me had the wrong ticket when it started, literally 20 seconds made me wait that long.

No expectation from me. I think I'll enjoy it, more vidya for me.

To make things short ps4 is the better version and I recommend waiting for the ps4k to avoid cardboard props.

I want a PC version just for the slim chance the game is mod friendly enough that someone can improve the combat

This, something like one of those FFVI mods that fix everything would be great for this one.

Don't worry user, they are bound to announce it soon

all I expect from it is to be better than X-2, XII, and XIII

This game is going to be more than just a bad game. This is the project that will sink the Final Fantasy brand for good.

This is the road they have been going down since FFVIII.

>disliking the best FF

>anything beating X-2

ur fuckin dreamin m8

Okay, important question:

Does the German dub stick to the name Cindy or do they call her Cidney like in the japanese one?

People actually thought this wasn't going to suck?

Look at it. It looks like hideous, by-committee shit.

Sadly, this was the thing I could not make out since it seemed all people who played on the LED wall were huge weeabos and only played in Jap.
The one time someone played in German and I was watching they never went to Cidney/Cindy
