I'm a lot more enthusiastic now given these latest 4chan leaks over the initial batch.
Immediate takeaway to reaffirm their authenticity is to expect a 5 1/2 minute trailer at Gamescom (in a little over 2 weeks) along with the new demo that culminates in afight.__Leviathan__
Plus, a launch trailer at TGS in mid-September.
You working on the official guide for the game or what?Meh. Most of it is nonsense. As someone with the advanced copy that includes the full game: It is absolutely nonsense.
Piggyback are doing the guide for it that will have all the details including world map and stuff. Advanced copy is possible.I am sure Prima has had to have an advanced copy by now right? Anyone working on the mega strategy guide could be a leaker in that case.

The words "Platinum" don't make it the "advanced" version version, just so you know.
Ah, thank you for the correction. The Piggyback book looks great.
It's rare for employees to have access to the full game and story. The leaker probably is involved in PR and therefore able to point out some event related stuff, but there's no way that he has all that other info. It's probably just speculation.
I think you've got this mixed up. Employees of the studio are far more likely to know every detail than...well...almost anyone.
Sounds straight up bullshit. You're not doing significant changes to a game coming out four months from now.
Basically the kind of person I assume every rumormonger without a shred of evidence turns out to be.
I know people working on other games with large teams like this, and they really know almost nothing aside from the current task/case and have a debug environment to test it in, most of the time they don't have access to the full game and get their info about the full game from trailers and PR. The leaker would have to be pretty high up the development hierarchy to know all of this information.
I guess part of it is true and he's just someone in charge of PR or the guide.

Geez, the game is not out yet but spoilers are everywhere already.
It amazes me that how can people enjoy the game later if they've already been spoiled all over the place.
I give credit to 4chan or whoever the "leaker" is
I mean,is been a while since these rumors were posted and we are still discussing them.
The guy did he's home work.
You mean we're discussing them again now that a neogaf user claims to have an advanced copy and completely dismisses the OP leaks, not to mention a new set of possibly fake leaks on 4chan furthering the discussion? lol
^this is what I meanThis sounds pretty much like bullshit.
But it is Square, so I'm not willing to dismiss it.
Sadly. :/
For people late to the thread, the OP ended up being down to a weird user who had like 12 different accounts between 4chan and Gamefaqs, and had endless arguments between his sockpuppets, basically shitting up every FFXV thread for years with fake theories. People found he'd been doing this for years beforehand with FFXIII too and made all sorts of R34 porn of FF characters.
He was a really weird person who was also behind the Kingsglaive spoilers, a bunch of stuff he said was contradicted by stuff that had already been announced/shown, didn't make any sense on its own, or was contradicted later.

The suspense is killing me.
For gamescom leaker #2 said expect a lengthy story trailer, Prompto DLC (which was said before the season pass announcement) and also that the gamescom demo ischapter 0 involving a fight with ifrit 10 years in the future
What doesn't make sense is that Tabata already said we'd see more Leviathan which this person said nothing about.
Sounds like you just know some QA testers. Most devs, even juniors, know about the game they're working on.
Hey, be careful how you use the term OP before I get houndedFor people late to the thread, the OP ended up being down to a weird user who had like 12 different accounts between 4chan and Gamefaqs, and had endless arguments between his sockpuppets, basically shitting up every FFXV thread for years with fake theories.

All I want to know if.Noctis will live in the end or not. I do not want him dead
From the last leak or whatever you all want to call this, the person spreading information said that he saw an artwork and concept art for the final scene of the game with Noctis sitting in a throne and Luna at his side.
It would be funny if the game ends with a reworked version of this scene
Contracted developers. Of course they know what game they're working on but they know little about it story-wise, artists don't even have Visual Studio and don't have/need access to the game's code too. I'm 100% sure that a FFXV dev wouldn't be able to have access to story documentation, scripts or cutscenes unless he's directly involved in that area.
Those latest leaks sound reasonable and kinda nice, if true. True or not, too late to change things right now.

Damn, really? Show me the link, brother.
Reminds me of Dracula in SOTN.
Isn't a whole lot of lies and nonsense told on 4chan? I never visit that site though.
So like the rest of the internet? LolIsn't a whole lot of lies and nonsense told on 4chan? I never visit that site though.
We have
1. People waiting on the one user who claims to have an advanced copy to be verified.
2. New people coming in here and commenting on the already questioned OP information that is likely false.
Perhaps if number 1 is clarified, this thread can finally die.
From the new leaks...which I refuse to read...can anyone just answer this so I can be at peace?
Are towns 'big' and are there more than Lestallum and Altissia?
No, I don't expect them to be as big as a GTA city, that's unreasonable, but as long as they are more than small hubs and there's a couple of them I can be at peace (like old school RPGs heh).
Yes.
I agree,How come Falk and Kagari wont close this thread already?
Even if we have one user who claims to have the advanced copy, so what-
Is not like he's obligated to tell us anything.
It's basically policy here that when you claim insider knowledge you have to back it up, otherwise you'll get banned. What's the status on that, Kagari?
And yeah, this thread should be closed.
