i know wich one i like moreMaybe Gladio draws inspiration of the Spartans and likes to fight barechested lol.
Actually no, historical Spartan armors covers the chest area well. Only in that silly 300 movie where the men fights practically naked with a cape.
lol @ "I would like to know how you got access to this previously unreleased material"

I'm talking about these. The alleged employee came back and stated that Umbra (along with Cor, Aranea and Iris) were permanent party members in Nomura's game. Umbra being able to change forms while fighting like Link in Twilight Princess would have been an amazing mechanic if this is true.
No, I don't mean these. Never saw these before. I mean those from the "FFXV development troubles/Rumored Versus plot leaked" a week or so after release. They mentioned Umbra originally being a human that joined the cast. This coming from Ferrari is really giving that leak some legitimately, damn. It all sounded so plausible too. Especially of you beat the game and saw the "seams" at all the parts where stuff was apparently cut according to leak. Read them if you finished the game, they're super interesting!

I'm looking through that 4chan thread archived, where did he state Umbra was going to change forms?

His tastes are rather, let's say... compatible with Japanese tastes.

What about Jared/ who designed him?
Who?
Yeah looks like a generic NPC and they expect us to care about a freaking butler we barely knew.
In principio mi vengono fornite alcune linee guida. Da quelle poche righe si buttano giù delle idee senza troppi particolari: dei bozzetti possibilmente differenti l'uno dall'altro.
Li fai vedere all'Art-Director e questi sceglie il più attinente a ciò che era stato immaginato durante la stesura della storia.
A volte, durante le riunioni, ti vengono rivolti dei commenti che ti aiutano a capire qualcosa di più sul personaggio.
Per esempio Ardyn: quando l'ho mostrato a Nomura-san mi fece questo commento: "Gli manca qualcosa...mi servirebbe qualcosa di più eccentrico... ".
La settimana dopo mi sono presentato con lo stesso disegno ma con un'ala al braccio di Ardyn anche pensando che si sarebbe dovuto trasformare sul finale...
Inserendo questo particolare ho ottenuto l'OK!
Mi era stato chiesto di farlo somigliante a Johnny Depp ma come vedi me ne sono discostato ed è stato accettato lo stesso ;-)
Dovevo mettergli addosso qualcosa di eccentrico e ho tratto ispirazione da un libro sulle Kachina Dolls, le figurine indiane.
Apparently when Ferrari showed Ardyn's design to Nomura the latter told him it lacked something and needed to be more eccentric, so Ferrari added the black wing thing and then Nomura approved the design. (I don't speak Italian)
Apparently Ardyn was based on Johnny Depp too

"What is it?"
"It's a wing-thing"
"Yeah but like what is it supposed to be, a shield?"
"I dunno"
"...it's perfect."
That's funny because the wing is the only thing I don't like!

Initially I am given some guidelines. From those few lines we throw down some few ideas with little details: sketches possibly differing from each others.
You show them to the Art-Director and he chooses the most fitting to what was imagined when the story was written.
Sometimes, during the meetings, you receive some comments which help you understand something more about the character.
For example Ardyn: when I showed him to Nomura-san he said to me: "He's missing something... I'd need something more eccentric...".
The next week I came back with the same design but with a wing on one of Ardyn's arm also thinking that he would have had to transform toward the end...
Inserting this detail I got the OK!
I was asked to make him look similar to Johnny Depp but as you can see I moved away from that and it was accepted anyways ;-)
I had to put something eccentric on him and I took inspiration from a book on the Kachina Dolls, the indian statuettes.
I do, so I'll provide some shitty translations.

And turning them into air ships.Nomura really loves villains with wings.

So basically Ardyn was meant to transform. That gives the 4chan leak even more legitimacy.
Who is still in denial about the leak?
Wonder with the Ultimania will have concepts not in the final game.

Huh? How are you taking "thinking that he would have had to transform toward the end" as confirmation?
You are aware that's just Ferrari's assumption, right?

Um. Yes it does?A story doesn't need to have a beginning and end
I kind of see what you mean, in that the individual scenes and interactions between characters and the world building matter just as much, if not more, than the main plot arc, but to say "it doesn't need a beginning and end" is just going way too far. Of course it needs a coherent plot too., it also has a lot of interactions in between that make it memorable. They need to create scenarios that make the game fun, work on building character relations and background and much more.
No, why would they? The brothel actually had a plot purpose, and served for some pretty iconic (and humorous) scenes.Were people this mad about FFVII having a brothel/hookers back in the day?
I do, so I'll provide some shitty translations.
Despite being "shitty" I actually no problems understanding it.....unlike 90% of the translations in the OP, which were so hard to read.
Could you do me a favor and re-translate all of Ferrari's post? kthx
Just kidding. I think you have more important things to do. lol
Gladio is treated like a character with some respect that also has some fanservice that is appropriately applied. Cindy is just tits and ass dude. That's how the game treats her.
The OP's were Google Translations.
Philippo already retranslated the quotes in the OP, but I don't remember which page that was.
I found it pretty odd that there is not a single Hammerhead station in the entirety of Duscae/Cleigne.
That's a major oversight on their part.Really doesn't make sense in a world where travel is mostly by car.
Should have had multiple Hammerhead outposts in the world.Maybe even with Generic NPCs other than Cindy.
Its not like it would've been hard to do.Just copy past the assets and do some small variations.
There are other designs Aranea. Because the armor was complex I had to share the drawings by degrees.
That complete with wings and helmet with tail is the last degree, but it is always mine.
The only variation in Aranea are the long codpieces. ^^
I just drew the characters. As for Aranea, I remember I had the chance to take a look at one of the original model's screenshots to make some adjustments (this happened for the first adaptation of Ardyn too).
Aranea is supposed to have very abudant breasts, but the one created by the modeler had some space between one breast and the other, which created a "fake boobs" kind of look. I asked them if I could make the breasts closer to each other, so they could look softer and more natural.
I also made adjustments on her make-up. However, when Nomura-san supervised my work, he decided to apply further variations: for instance, he turned the orange lipstick I chose for her into a red one.
I wrote it wrong. What I meant to say was that a video game story doesn't really only need a beginning and ending for basic story, it is the world building and character interaction that makes it important.Um. Yes it does?

But well if that's how video game writers really think, it sure would explain a lot...

In the case of FFXV, the world building and character interaction was great for me which paid off in the ending. The beginning was flat and the basic story felt severely lacking in details, but if we put together all the pieces, it sounded good to me. I liked it for what it is worth.
