>it's all black too

>He doesn't know

W-what?

the amount of stinking tacky chafing skin

It's a 2006 game after all.

It's better to wear black in the sun to stay cool if it's slightly windy.

I bet they rub and bump against each other a lot with all that running and stuff too

Japs have been batshit for a long time. Is this really a suprise?

bare skin on asphalt is a pretty bad idea too

This.

It was originally intended to come out as a PS2 title as one can see from the outdated graphics, gameplay and general style.

This is made by some turbo faggot NEET Japs who never go outside and fap to shota and emo boy porn all day, user.

Can't believe NeoGAF is looking forward to this.

Does someone now what FFXV-kun is up to?

Prompto really needs a good fucking doesn't he?

Wha?

>Is Final Fantasy out of touch?
yes

They still made PS2 games back then.

What year are you living in?

Just be gentle with him

Its okay when the west does it! Fuck off.

Are you trying to kill me from dehydration in the middle of the fucking desert m8?

kill yourself.

>a prince + 4 guys, going to wedding with no money
>their expensive car suddenly breaks down

>implying expensive models of century old technology are less prone to breaking down than cheap models of century old technology

Yeah, i'm sure all the aerodynamic plastic slapped on the outside does wonders to make the engine more reliable

Featuring Zach Galifianakis.

>implying that the devs thought any of this through

FUCK YOU OP

>i only play realistic games for realistic players like me
and faggots complain when you call inane bullshit like that nitpicking

>someone said something that is at odds with my preconceptions about the world, better tell them to commit suicide!

except that is not leather, it's cloth

DUMASS

I'm going to fuck him on that asphalt
>being gentle
baka

>DUMASS
We were talking about the color black, not the material.

the material is more relevant than the color

I agree, but it was not the topic of discussion.

>laying on the burning pavement in the middle of the sun instead of sitting in the shade
fucking retarded

PS2 games were coming out in 2010 too so it's fine

the combination of material and colour matters a lot. cloth can't absorb and keep heat that well. leather can.

What is this some type of fantasy game?

You're a complete and utter moron. It does get very cold in deserts. When it's cold, you wear black to retain heat. You literally failed third grade science.

Kill yourself.

I have no idea what the fuck the SE idiots were thinking when they made this game. It's like they purposely set out to make the most unappealing game in the world.

Atleast FFXIII was nice to look at. FFXV doesn't even have that. It's just a shittier western AAA.

When you read my post comparing black to white clothing, you were under the impression I was talking about people wearing black or white leather? Do you regularly see people walking around in white leather?

>When it's cold, you wear black to retain heat.
>talking out of your ass while acting intellectually superior
Top kek, I'm going to leave it at that but if you want me to explain why you're a retard, go ahead and ask.

>wear black to retain heat
>during the night, the only time it's cold in the desert.
You didn't think this one through.

No offense but anyone who liked 13 has no valid opinions on FF, RPGs, nor video games at all. Go watch your animes and shut up desu.

>seasons have no effect on deserts

...

>you're supposed to wear black to stay cool in deserts!
t. underage chucklefuck

uggos get out.

>wearing black to preserve heat during the winter
You didn't think this one through. If they wanted to preserve heat, they should've just worn jackets instead of leather vests that leave the entire stomach bare.

Can we have these without retarded fahrenheit system?

how can one design a game for 10 years without realizing that your character and enemy design looks terrible?

>Is Final Fantasy out of touch?
Pretty much the JRPG problem.

Teens don't play the genre anymore, so they should make the games for adults.

Until we see a +18 in a Final Fantasy cover, the series will be doomed to mediocrity.

And of course, with "game for adults" I don't mean sex and violence, I mean GOOD WRITING.

I think muslims have to wear rags or they get their heads cut off. Take it up with them.

you can very easily tell who is wrong here by googling "dark colored clothes desert"

Are you american? Black doesn't retain heat, it absorbs and releases equally fast, so in the night you will get even colder than if you were wearing a white cloth or something.

>The current version of the Fahrenheit scale is, in my opinion, the best temperature scale for meteorology in temperate climates. If you think about it, most air temperatures in the mid latitudes are between 0 °F and 100 °F. It works so well that the average surface air temperature of the earth is very nearly in the middle of this range (something like 50 °F). That makes for a very efficient use of two digits.
>Fahrenheit gives you almost double—1.8x—the precision of Celsius without having to delve into decimals, allowing you to better relate to the air temperature. Again, we're sensitive to small shifts in temperature, so Fahrenheit allows us to discern between two readings more easily than Saint Celsius ever could.
>Fahrenheit makes more sense for precision and as a way of communicating air temperature in a way that relates to how humans perceive temperatures.
-Steven Eagling

If you're going to spend 10 years and 50mil $ to make a game wouldn't it make sense to take place in an enviroment you're familiar with?
Why would japs make a westernized desert adventure with sports car and all male cast?

Stephen Hawking is a cuck tho, he wanted someone to please his wife while he watched

Just Google the conversions if it booty bothers you that much. As a quick mental reference, 20C is 68F. 30C is 86F

It is though. Mostly because Max doesn't look like a little Asian faggot

Damn. I guess all these thousands of years proof and the very functions physics itself have been wrong! You should present your findings the Nobel committee, I think.

Alright brainlets, sit down and listen up.

You seem to understand the basics; white reflects, black absorbs. But you all failed miserably in trying to apply this knowledge to clothing. The clothes you wear have an outside and an inside, and the same properties apply to the inside surface.

Wearing black and loose clothing is good if you're in a hot environment with wind. The black cloth absorbs both solar radiation and your body heat, and the heat that radiates off from the cloth is transported away by the wind. A white shirt may reflect incoming sunlight, but it will also retain your body heat. They're both decent options in a hot environment, with the difference really coming down to whether there is enough wind or not.

If you're in cold climate and trying to retain heat, wearing black is a terrible idea because it absorbs and radiates your body heat off to the outside instead of keeping it in. When the ambient temperature is well below your body temperature, you want isolation, and white does a much better job at reflecting your body heat back.

>Damn. I guess all these thousands of years proof and the very functions physics itself have been wrong! You should present your findings the Nobel committee, I think.

a simply yes would've worked

That's not cool, dude.

>Each of the test sessions (black-robed, white-robed, uniformed and half-naked) lasted 30 minutes. They took place in the Negev desert at the bottom of the rift valley between the Dead Sea and the Gulf of Eilat. The volunteer stood in temperatures that ranged from a just-semi-sultry 35C (95F) to a character-building 46C (115F). Though he is now nameless, this was his day in the sun.
>The results were clear. As the report puts it: "The amount of heat gained by a Bedouin exposed to the hot desert is the same whether he wears a black or a white robe. The additional heat absorbed by the black robe was lost before it reached the skin."
>Bedouins' robes, the scientists noted, are worn loose. Inside, the cooling happens by convection – either through a bellows action, as the robes flow in the wind, or by a chimney sort of effect, as air rises between robe and skin. Thus it was conclusively demonstrated that, at least for Bedouin robes, black is as cool as any other colour.

>left:hot
>right:not hot

Another quality Sup Forums thread.

Jew-study back in 1980
>Survival in hot deserts has always posed a problem for man; Moses had to solve it in order to lead the children of Israel through the wilderness of the Sinai—a formidable hot desert. It seems likely that the present inhabitants of the Sinai, the Bedouins, would have optimised their solutions for desert survival during their long tenure in this desert Yet, one may have doubts on first encountering Bedouins wearing black robes and herding black goats. We have therefore investigated whether black robes help the Bedouins to minimise solar heat loads in a hot desert. This seemed possible because experiments have shown that white hair on cattle1,2 and white feathers on pigeons3 permit greater penetration of short-wave radiation to the skin than black. In fact, more heat flowed inward through white pigeon plumage than through black when both were exposed to simulated solar radiation at wind speeds greater than 3 m s−1 (ref. 3). We report here that the amount of heat gained by a Bedouin exposed to the hot desert is the same whether he wears a black or a white robe. The additional heat absorbed by the black robe was lost before it reached the skin.

The other surprising thing is that bedouin up until about the arrival of Islam if not even later than that went about largely half-naked with just a loincloth and a mantle wrap. The dress worn on Hajj is somewhat reminescent of what those pre-islamic bedouin wore.

I feel like i should drop gaming entirely, almost everything that comes out now is complete garbage

The only games I've legit enjoyed are handheld games and maybe some ultra casual bullshit that hardly qualifies as games, I can't take this shit anymore senpaitachi, gaming is fucking dying, everyone is creatively bankrupt now or just straight incapable of making compelling experiences

How does one respond to a mule on a level that it can understand? You understand the dilemma.

I want to fuck Prompto to be quite honest

why are they ALL wearing leather too
I mean even just one of them would be completely retarded, but all of them running around wearing black leather is just plain absurd

I'm not the guy who started up the argument, but his points reminded me of how I had wondered why you had bedouin with black robes in the desert and ended up finding those articles. It's still a strange thing to grapple with given anyone knows how wearing a black t-shirt or whatever is a bad idea in the sun. And such shirts aren't normally skin-tight, but apparently the kaftans the bedouin wear suffices to make a big difference in terms of billowy voluminousness.

Leather I think is still pretty stupid to wear in the desert. If I recall right the brits or the Germans had to switch from leather pouches and belts and shit to fabric webbing in the WW2 North Africa campaign.

The complaint about their appearance has always been shallow and retarded since Versus days. Except back then, there was an actual reason they dressed that way and the game looked good otherwise so no one took the boyband leather jokes that seriously and even lightheartedy adopted them.

Too bad Tabata shit all over everything so now the boyband jokes are actually justified as there's no fucking reason they are dressed like that besides "buy my Roen stuff" and their personalities are fagtastic thanks to the fujoshit writer they hired to replace Nojima and Nomura.

Still, of all the mistakes this game made, their appearance is only one of many that you could be discussing.

Those women in full hijabs must be smoking alive then.

Feel free to scroll down on that answer and read on anytime, brainlet.

What you're experiencing is called confirmation bias, by the way.

How much of their outfits is actually leather though? Gladio's for sure, but the others not so much.

so,desu senpai

The 4 boys and everyone else ends up dying at the end and the final boss is a multi phase fight with QTE for the final phase

on top of that....

There's an anime and a movie attached to this in order to "build the world"

but seriously,we waited 10 years for THIS???

Gladio is all leather. Prompto, Ignis and Cor aren't even wearing leather just the gloves and Ignis' collar. Noct shirt is cloth and the jacket and shorts are some sort of half-leather I think.

This scene actually kinda pissed me off, it was like a slap in the face.

Well how about that. Guess I'll have to concede that I was not aware of as much.

I'm gonna go ahead and say no. It's us that are out of touch. We expect something from this games that's no longer there. The world has moved and companies aim to a different target audience.

We are relics from the past man. Still there is a market for adults that grew playing video games. I think that's the whole reason they are not releasing everything for cellphones yet but in the near future it's gonna be cellphones + VR and the days of old FF and of joysticks will be left behind.

All those gaming moments will be lost... like tears in the rain...

except pretty much everyone in the madmax universe looks like some gay porn parody faggot

True but it worked in that universe. Everything was grimy and fucking gross. In 15 it's only the 4 MCs with their good looks, perfect hair, and leathery outfits. They stand out and it's just jarring to look at
