KINGSGLAIVE FINAL FANTASY XV- Official E3 Trailer

i feel bad for constantly speaking poorly of tabata.

half the time i'm joking and i really do appreciate that he's turned the ship around and is steering the game towards an actual release.

i'm just endlessly frustrated with the decisions made regarding changes from versus and how they're announced/not announced.

everything that excited me about versus and gave the game its identity is slowly being killed off. at least publicly. often in confusing ways.

and every time i think "well it can't get worse" we get something like space marine dadio or noctis learning of the invasion in a newspaper.

i'm eternally internally screaming

The 2 points you made are a bit of an overreaction in my opinion. We are talking a redesign for a character that we don't even really know is featured that heavily for and one scene in the game. These are nitpicks, don't tell me you liked every single detail in every FF game you have played cause they all fuck up a bit here and there

Versus/XV is by far the only Final Fantasy game I've followed this closely up to release, and the designs are a huge reason why. Noctis, Stella, Regis and co.'s designs, Nomura's direction, Shimomura, the fact that it was a "mature kingdom hearts" all drew me in. These aren't nitpicks. These aren't small changes to small details to me.

These redesigns are absolute nonsense. Clarus and Regis look nothing like their sons.

Ravus looks okay, his color scheme (white + purple) is pretty unique.

Oh boy, I'm hyped. They showed it at Japan Expo?

Yep. They also announced that they are dubbing the movie in french, just like the game. Now they're premiering the third Brotherhood episode.

EDIT: Seems like the movie will be available for stream and download in EU countries before September. The blu-ray and dvd release will remain September 30th.

Nozue Q&A at today's Japan Expo.


- What is different about your work on Kingsglaive than FF VII:AC ?

On the FF VII:AC project I was just there for the visuals, here i am really directing the movie and making important decisions.
The scale of the Kingsglaive project is also way bigger (a lot of studios are involved ) .


- What did you do to link the game and the movie ?

To avoid any problems we decided that Kingsglaive was going to use the same core as FFXV. They both use the same script.


- Why did you hide Kingsglaive so long ?

We revealed FF XV too early , not the opposite (everyone laughed ) .


- Can you talk more about Luna ?

I don't want to spoil the game or the movie but know that Luna is what links Kingsglaive and FF XV, she is extremely important .


- Is there any planned FR dubs for Kingsgrave ?

I'd like to do it but it depends on Sony Picture, i'll ask Sony picture about it since everyone seems hyped about it .

What if only those who has similar looks to their game counterparts will appear in-game -- present time that is. Now we can just ignore this movie.

Iedolas, Ravus, Luna, Regis and Ardyn are confirmed to appear in the game. The only character they have confirmed as movie exclusive so far is Nyx.

Nozue > Nomura confirmed?

Damn I'm hyped for the movie. And the game too, of course.

They hinted at the movie being screened in theaters in France early September. So Japan gets it July, NA August and EU in September lol

Wasn't Crowe also listed under FFXV's cast? So she's all but confirmed too. I think Nyx is the only one they confirmed to NOT be in the game.

Good to hear it'll be out streaming before September, so I'll be able to see it even if it doesn't come to theaters near me (though I'd much prefer theaters).

Looking forward to Brotherhood episode 3. Hope I can hold out until I get home and not watch it on my dinky work monitor at lunch.

EDIT: The DVD/Blu-Ray release of Brotherhood will include an exclusive scene with Lunafreya.

Less than 2 months from now? So like late August/early September.

Did I see that right in the preview pictures for Brotherhood 3? Yuffie 2.0 will be in that episode?

There was a girl featured in the episode that looked like Yuffie 2.0 but I don't know if that's her or just a random Insomnia NPC. I wasn't paying attention, I'm waiting to see the episode in HD.

They also said that they are open for Brotherhood season 2 because the reception has been positive, but there are just 5 episodes scheduled right now.

One of the things i liked the most was that on one side you had these guys dressed in suits wielding swords while the other had guys dressed in fantasy robes and armor wielding guns and shit. Sure now Noct's side still have some suits but now they are dressed in robes and crap too. I hate it.

Gladiolus and Iris reminds me of my big brother and I. xD

These Brotherhood episodes have been really endearing so far.

Out of all the cutscenes we've seen so far i've never once thought that they looked believable in context. Mannerisms don't help but that's a whole other can of worms.


Yea, it's so very stereotypical Nomura that it hurts.

I thought Roberto Ferrari was the one who designed the main casts' clothes

We don't know how Iedolas and Ravus in the game look to make comparison, but so far only Luna seems to look different out of those.

I hope this means there's a plot reason why for her to look different rather than just because. Even Brotherhood keep her game looks.

Brotherhood episode 3 was great, just like the others. These short episodes are getting me more hyped about the story of the game than any of the trailers we've got recently. Not sure if I should wait for Kingsglaive on Blu-Ray since I've preordered the deluxe edition or stream it right when it launches...

Hello, my name is Yves Guillemot, Vivendi S.A.'s Employee of the Month!
Not really.
The same sullen uninterested look while wearing dark clothing.You look at someone like Noctis and think "Yep, that's a Tetsuya Nomura design alright."

I thought Roberto Ferrari was the one who designed the main casts' clothes
Nah, iirc the clothing redesigns were part of a collab with a fashion company.

Ferrari is responsible for Cidney, at least. Not sure what other characters he designed/designed for.

Aardyn too iirc.

He did Ardyn, Gentiana, Verstael, Aranea and Cidney - confirmed on his his official FB site:

From what I google-translated he and his wife jokingly confirmed that Ardyn looks a bit like Roberto in his 40's and he posted this picture of himself:

Philippo said:
Mate, could you roughly translate his and his wife's (Tiger Frank) posts? Grazie!

Tiger Frank:
Di tutte le immagini di Ardyn che ho visto su google direi che solo questa foto qui in basso lo ricorda (3D di Roberto peraltro) e infatti proprio a questa foto si riferiva l'articolo che hai citato poc'anzi . Tuttavia ,questo, quando era un po' piu' giovincello^^​

Roberto Ferrari:
Si, somiglia a me a 40 anni, questa sotto e` una foto di vent'anni fa...
Pero`somiglio al primo アーデン non a quello che gira ora...purtroppo è stato cambiato dal nuovo staff.​

Also he designed Biggs, Wedge, and Jessy in FFVIIR:

I asked Roberto if he designed Aranea too, but couldn't say because of NDA :(

But I'm pretty sure he did.
