You know honestly I'm really enjoying all this dependence on Peru! Makes me so happy!
Nope.

I really don't think he's comin' back.
Nope!
Yeah, this. Huh, curious situation though. I hadn't realized it was still up-in-the-air as to whether this was legit.
Didn't someone allegedly post the ending like four hours ago, anyway? Or was that not the case? That was around when I mentioned that it seemed like your "Verendus Deadline" had expired earlier than anticipated.
That was not the ending but there was a screencap of a new Japanese TV spot.
Or maybe he's waiting till he gets the game
No spoilers in this thread going forward, please. No exceptions

I'm of a split mind. I believe jschrier probably has an extremely good reason to call him out but it seems weird to me that Verendus would troll (or be pathetic and making up impressions) this hard.
I think he'll come back.
He's going to need to do more now to make his claim, but if he has the game he should be able to make one, anyway.

I was gonna say that DQ XI on PS4 wasn't obvious because the main argument for the last decade against DQ on a Sony console has been "Horii always puts the mainline games on the best-selling platform", which was the 3DS at the time.
But I seem to remember Horii saying something about wanting to make the next dragon quest game on a powerful home console, which would put the PS4 in the running. did the Verendus post come before or after that statement?

Keep in mind I PM'd Verendus less than an hour after after his impressions posts went up, a long time before Jason showed up.

Horii actually said he would like to play DQ XI on a big screen.

...I just said that, to make a Falk/puzzle joke.
Cboat was banned at one point and he barely posts here anymore.
Also those other 'insiders' are just small fry compared to Verendus in terms of posting volume regarding rumors.

Argh. Glad to finally be recognized for something......I was just trying to be nice!PSY・S;225036516 said:
I'm sorry! I'll edit that out immediately! Got this one and the spoiler thread confused for a second!
Verendus posts impressions of FFXV
jschreier says most of what he wrote could be picked out from various previews
everybody now has a pitchfork and a torch and are now knocking on verendus door to demand proof of legitimacy
some brave villagers stand in front of the mob to make a point
etc etc.
that's about it.
ah, you're right

Verendus mentioned the 2 mainline DQ Games in early 2015 (Jan/Feb) - (i still have it via pm)
Horii said those things in July (if i didn't miss out an earlier interview/statement)
Horii actually talked about the big screen back in June 2014.

Ah yea, this too. Though, given the state of the leaks, for Verendus he pretty much either confirms it for everyone involved or no one.
Anything outside of a save file picture or something without date stamps is far too easy to scrutinize.

Obviously Jason was hired under Conan in order to make sure the game doesn't look good by any means
jk. Although Verendus did say that

It might be worth considering that Verendus is a member of WrestlingGAF, a community where members roleplay and pretend to be professional wrestlers by "cutting promos." This could just be a WrestlingGAFfer taking it a little bit too far.
edit: I think I might be right. I just looked at the WrestlingGAF thread and Verendus is a hero to them.

To be honest I was suspicious of Verendus when he expressed that the combat system was one of the most enjoyable he's ever played. It holds together well enough that I don't believe it will keep the game back, but after three demos worth of playing it I don't believe it's anything particularly remarkable.

Well, that thread took quite a turn.
I guess I'll go back to wait for the game's release and beyond, as I won't buy it until February (no PS4 + moving out). Reviews will be out by then, and I will have plenty of time to discern if the gameplay will be something I like or not. In any case, the following days are going to be quite interesting on GAF.
Frankly, I'm mostly curious about the fact that Verendus implied that FFXV

pulls a reverse-FFXIII: open-world exclusively in the first half, and a more straigh-lined progression for the second half, with the possibility to come back to the rest of the world despite that not making any sense story-wise.

Regarding your spoiler, I think that's already been confirmed as accurate.
The thing is, as more real leaks come out for the game, Verendus can just post those as proof that he got the game early. The only way for him to prove it now would be for him to show mid-late game offscreen gameplay footage with a Verendus sign somewhere in the video. It would have to be a new area we haven't seen yet.

I'm really digging the combat, and if it scales up in complexity I'd be surprised if it wasn't a great system.

After all the descriptions, I still don't understand the tizzy.
Just people suggesting they are fake impressions?

I haven't seen anything to suggest it scales up in complexity. The full Ascension system has been revealed and mostly lends passive buffs or attacks for your party of all things rather than systems or abilities that change the game for Noctis himself. As for the combat itself, it has blatant points of frustration like prioritizing animation over smooth gameplay and automating actions that should really be under player control.
I'm really happy you like it and that in general the first action Final Fantasy seems to be able to stand on its own two legs. I'd like to see the series continue in this direction. But it seems like if you get bored of warping and normal attacks, there isn't a lot left for you.
I think it's okay when you're just fighting a couple of enemies but when it's a small army, it's just a disaster. That's why I'm hoping that Wait mode makes that a little more tolerable.
Yo, that's when you do when you're fighting a shit ton of enemies in ATB systems.
AOE!

Answered your own question right before you asked it.
