Looks very good, nice lighting and motion blur and effects and all that shit that makes your heartbeat go faster

 

[NoctisVsStar]

Really strange art, it can look incredible one second and in the next look like an early last gen game. Really mixed bag. Looks like it plays a bit like a mix between Kingdom Hearts and Monster Hunter...a bit faster than KH with single commands on each button like Monster hunter

crisis core on steroids.

FUCKING BOUGHT!

 

[poodpick]

It's an off-screen video so sorry for any quality issues. The interiors look especially dim.



Seems they were playing it in a Japanese hotel room. There was a loud announcement "the earthquake is now over, it is now safe to use the elevator."

This must be the game that the IGN writer was talking about. http://ca.ign.com/articles/2014/09/16/tgs-2014-i-played-an-earthquake-in-japan

 

[Cloud Strife]

I literally know nothing about this game so I think I will buy it.

 

[qualitydisc]

I'll try to grab some more screens

 

[solarplexus]

The video is still working for me but I can't save it (no cache).

That is the best motion blur I've ever seen holy shit.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

Gameplay/camera looks really similar to the PSP verison. So does the whole, go from room to room mission structure.

That stuff was never going to change.

But it's prettier than I expected, I think this is a very satisfying "remaster" in the vein of FFX/X-2 HD before it. Funny, remakes seem to be SE's forte these days.

 

[Mr. RHC]

All pieces are coming together now. Fabula Nova Crystallis redeemed after all?

So what were the main issues with the game, I heard people say Type-0 is rather average?

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Looks great.

 

[Skilletor]

Looks very good, nice lighting and motion blur and effects and all that shit that makes your heartbeat go faster

Holy shit.

I NEED THIS GAME!

Also, plays like crisis core. Anybody that needs to know how it plays should just start there.

 

[BlazingDarkness]

God damn, it's so good.

 

[thuway]

Look ten times more fun than anything Lightning ever did.

 

[NoctisVsStar]

so i'm watching the video and you can control iftrit when you summon him? did not know this day 0

 

[Kandinsky]

Can PS3/360 even pull that off?

 

[MagiusNecros]

Well based on what I am seeing it's just the PSP version but super pretty. The bland mission structure seems to be exactly the same. Not complaining though.

 

[Citizen_Insane]

Holy shit.

I NEED THIS GAME!

Also, plays like crisis core. Anybody that needs to know how it plays should just start there.

I really liked how Crisis Core played even if it was easy as hell. Can't wait for this.

 

[Koozek]

The motion blur looked delicious! Loved RE5 for that, especially. Makes everything look nicer^^

 

[Nibel]

If anyone knows a good full-screen capture solution I can record the video and upload it.

 

[Edge_Maverick]

Some screencaps for ya:

 

[Percy]

Visuals are clearly a big improvement, but as expected, those sparse, cramped looking areas betray it's origins big time.

Still not something I'd pay full retail for tbh.

 

[DangerMouse]

I think the backgrounds add to that, they are the main thing that gives it away especially on the simpler ones when they can't do some of the fancier looking lighting.

 

[Skilletor]

I really liked how Crisis Core played even if it was easy as hell. Can't wait for this.

Same. I loved Crisis Core. I imported this when the english translastion patch was released and played about 10 hours. Loved every second, but stopped when this was announced. The way leveling works, I didn't want to go through the game twice.

I loooooooooove it.

This is a pretty good representation of what Im talking about. Animations and models look incredible, but you are battling in a PSP arena with smoothing applied. Some indoor areas had more model complexity though

 

[wmlk]

I live in a world where SE is seemingly doing the right things.

 

[Mokubba]

What's the best way to rip for those who still have the video up?

 

[djplaeskool]

Looks very good, nice lighting and motion blur and effects and all that shit that makes your heartbeat go faster

Nice.
As someone who put a fair amount of time into the PSP game, these are really great upgrades.

 

[TwistedFate]

Keep expectations in check and I think this will be enjoyable. It looks good visually and fluid combat but it still is a game that was designed for the PSP and the mission-based structure will likely highlight that

 

[Lifejumper]

Was this game full price?

 

[SoraanTribal]

Damn, anyone have any links to the video?

 

[Kagari]

I live in a world where SE is seemingly doing the right things.

No, the right thing would have been to release this overseas 2-3 years ago.

 

[ZeroMaverick]

So what is this? A button masher?

 

[Shadow Ranger]

As nice as this gif looks (it really makes the game look ace), put that on rinse and repeat for some time. That is Type-0. Limited enemies and annoying Kill-Sight (the red circle) reliance. Remove Kill-Sight and fix balancing and it'd make for a much nicer game, personally.

 

[Nibel]

I still think this is more than people expected. I'm quite shocked by SE's effort here; just watched some PSP footage and it clearly is a level above.

 

[BlazingDarkness]

Yep but I'd say it's unreasonable to expect the maps/field to be redesigned, they may as well make a sequel if they're going to put that much work into it. I'd say what we're getting is the best we can expect from a HD version.

 

[DangerMouse]

Yup, with the right expectations this looks quite good.

[koutoru]

Does anyone know if this was playing with eng voices or if it still used jpn voices?

 

[wmlk]

No, the right thing would have been to release this overseas 2-3 years ago.

Well, that's if we were talking about it 3 years ago. It's past that now and they're doing good things with Type-0 and XV. People are happy for once.

 

[Philippo]

That UI is so ugly, i hoped they'd change it more.

 

[Renpatsu]

I really liked how Crisis Core played even if it was easy as hell. Can't wait for this.

You'll probably appreciate the fact that there are a variety of characters to play as whose various weapon specialties change up how you will approach enemy encounters then.

 

[Isotope]

Does anyone know if this was playing with eng voices or if it still used jpn voices?

It was with the English cast.

 

[Sephiroth_GR_]

Does anyone know if this was playing with eng voices or if it still used jpn voices?

English voices. Nothing special either...

 

[kuroneko0509]

Definitely, they're joking about it at the end of the video

 

[MagiusNecros]

No, the right thing would have been to release this overseas 2-3 years ago.

Guess they decided not to or had conflicts and I guess opted to pretty up the graphics and market it as a PS4/X1 title to make more time for development of other projects like XV. And to give Tabata some time to work with the new systems.

 

[koutoru]

thanks everyone, just curious.

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

Link in OP is dead for me


That gif looks great. Now im really pissed theres no Vita version.
