Okay Square, you have my attention.
Who else is cautiously optimistic of this?
> Medieval fantasy
> Nomura/Kitase/Toriyama (FF13 and FF15) not involved
> FF14 developers
> Helmed by Yoshi-P, who saved FF14. Favorite games are FF Tactics and Vagrant Story
> Written by Heavensward writer
> Battle director previously worked on DMC5
don't forget battle director was gameplay lead for dragon's dogma. I'm hopeful it'll be an actually fun action game this time
the fact that a bunch of the important people love matsuno's work is really promising. bit of a shame he's not involved, but oh well
No Nomura means it is gonna be a boring slog so im no interested.
Ironically when they try to go back to more fantasy, it manages to look less FF as ever.
If the 16 developers needed to be saved by Yoshi-P at one point (while developing 14), wouldn't that be a red flag?
This is quite literally the best team FF has ever put out since Final Fantasy XII and I mean it.
Don't forget Masayoshi Soken is doing the music
I am cautiously optimistic, as YoshiP is the only person in that company with a vision.
Fuck Nomura, he is an absolute hack and a fraud.
Soken doing the OST is pretty hype too.
The gameplay is the main concern to me desu. Everything else I'm down with.
uhhh xvchads? are we losing?
So when do we start naming them "Final fantasy 2020" and just move on?
>Nomura releases bullshit CGI
>"OH MY GOOOOOOOD SO GOOD SO GOOD YESSSSSS"
>Yoshi-P releases trailer with real game footage with gameplay, story, voice acting and music, immediately proving the game is well underway and not a dev hell in the making
>"I'm cautiously optimistic"
fuck this shit
>FF14
This is one of the most boring games out on the market right now. Your thread unironically killed any interest I had in this game.
The original FF14 1.0 team was the FF11 team. From 2.0 and on, it was a new team and Yoshi-P turned it around from the shithole it was in into one of the best MMOs to date.
I'll wait for a complete edition.
Got burned by FFXV and buying that shit shortly after launch
you were winning in the first place?
XIV is the best FF game in two decades.
>nomura releases bullshit
>its bad and sells well but older fans hate it
>new final fantasy is suspicious
I don't think it's a slam against Yoshi. I myself was ready to write off everything after XII until I saw the XVI trailer.
I have been feeling for years now that I don't need eye bleeding graphics, they just need to be serviceable and the game has to be fun. FFX-XII had good graphics, XIII had amazing graphics while everything about it sucked.
same with XV, Barry.
You are a tranny. Opinion discarded.
Good. The mainline series was in desperate need for new blood.
Dilate
>Cautiously
I'm enthusiastically optimistic. The game's going to be great and XII and Tactics will get their next spiritual successor. I'm very, very happy with the trailer. This game will be released summer of 2023 at the latest.
Are you writing it off just because it's an MMO? The story is great, especially from Heavensward onwards, and pretty much every job is fun to play.
Only based Nomura can save this pile of shit
You will never pass, mutant.
Yeah as soon as I saw the snippets of combat in a modern FF game that didn't looking like slow, floaty, long animation shit like XV and to an extent 7R, I was pretty hooked
>the story gets good after 80 hours bro
>and pretty much every job is fun to play
Fucking kek. FF16 confirmed to be tranny dogshit.
The fact that they're showing they're not focusing on graphics but on gameplay and an involving story makes me more optimistic than everything they did after XII in my opinion.
If it was a CGI, I'd be cautious. But showing this much gameplay in their first trailer? This shows they're actually proud of what they're making and that the game speaks for itself.
This feels like everything I wanted with the atmosphere of FF Tactics or Vagrant Story
Is the American community really like this? I play on a Japanese DC so I've never encountered anyone like that.
Yeah they're focusing on gameplay by making a watered down DMC
Barry alert
Fuck a time skip I want a story that takes place over (in game) years with real character growth and epic journeys, fable did it I think final fantasy could pull it off.
OH NO NO NO
A watered down DMC will still be better than anything Nomura's made and that includes Kingdom Hearts.
Why does the graphic look like an early PS4 game, or even look worse than some SE's pre-PS4 demos, like Agnis Philosophy or the FF15 reveal.
You have a point with FF15 and FF7R, but KH3 and its DLC have the best boss fights of the generation. The fact that you think that god awful button mashing DMC-lite from the trailer is even a fraction as good as KH shows how worthless your opinion is.
They're focusing on gameplay and content over graphics. Which is exactly what Final Fantasy need right now. FF7 Remake was a looker but you spent most of your time walking hallways, sewers and non-descript underground facilities to pad the time.
kh IS button mashing. The attack speed of the FFXVI MC is much slower and weightier than the KH series. You are smoking.
>They're [headcanon]
>anything Nomura's made
Nomura made the perfect character and no game can top her lips.
>attack speed is what dictates depth and complexity
>not enemy AI, number of player actions and interactability between said actions
Stop posting. You are embarrassing yourself you low IQ ape.
you were talking about button mashing and literally none of the mc's actions showed that
15 overpromised and underdelivered. People are bound to be cautious. Like how DMC2 outsold DMC3 in the short term.
So its an FF flavored DMC? I guess if you slap a levelling system on it you can still call it an RPG but I don't think its really matching the spirit of the thing. At least it'll probably be more fun to play than XV.
It's button mashing because the enemy AI barely responded to the players actions, stupid cunt.
What said. After XV, there's reason to temper any kind of hype. The trailer, though, gives reason to be optimistic and the team behind it reinforces that.
Rent free.
> NINETY ONE
Always hilarious to watch retards seethe over a game's success
Look at how drastically the combat of XV changed between the first demo and the final release. There's still plenty of time to change combat speed so don't act like you know how XVI is going to play.
Bringing out Gaia's lips isn't fair. Nothing should be expected to compete with those.
The guerilla marketing shills for this game are in full force here, holy shit.
>this tranny cope
Time for your dilation station.
That's due to the MMO format. Heavensward would've made a much better single player game.
>Agnis Philosophy
>pre-PS4
Ah yes, the 4x titans wasn't powerful than PS4.
> Nomura/Kitase/Toriyama (FF13 and FF15) not involved
That's all I needed to hear
Yes, what a tragedy Nomura isn't here to save this trash
Say hi to Joshua Shield, the new face of Final Fantasy.
