KH is a decent game, but avoid everything after that.

Except, no.

BbS and KH2: FM are awesome and better than KH1.

 

[Ishida]

I remember Chrono Trigger being a collaborative effort..

Yes, somewhat. The Soundtrack was composed by Yasunori Mitsuda, and Nobuo Uematsu composed 10 tracks because Mitsuda fell ill during production, due to work overload.

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

my favourite part of the trailer was probably 1:07. with what looked like warships invading a kingdom or one of the enemy kingdoms

signifying the grander and more epic plot in the story

super happy fun time

 

[Scrooge McDuck]

no they said the game will just be about guys in the highway I mean there's no girls.

what a joke square...

Nobody is bringing that up in this thread. Do you really need to drag it out just for the sake of mockery?

I've literally been jumping around XV threads for the past week. I didn't notice it was the original one after so long.

Yeah, it was pretty tasteless.

[Sword Familiar]

So the adamantoise battle is said to take 30 or so in-game days, so maybe 900 minutes or less. Wow

I know I'll never get that "you battled for 15 hours like a dumbass (go get a haircut and a job, you loser)" trophy.

It's about damn time someone made this

My favorite thing about the trailer where the puns at the beginning and at the end. Oh and the prelude.

Like a million times, but it's always funny.

I don't get it.

 

[Sword Familiar]

I don't get it.

It's a parody/reference of a scene from the movie Zoolander:

I guess the trailer reminded someone of those guys.

 

[Stone Ocean]

I don't get it.

Four good looking model-like friends riding a car together

Somebody has to photoshop their faces on those 4.

 

[Digital-Hero]

The blonde character is the most cringe worthy character in trailer. Seriously, how does that character exist?

 

[Ultimadrago]

Somebody has to photoshop their faces on those 4.

Still waiting for it.

 

[Buzzati]

This is what happens when you don't push enough kids into lockers. Look at these goofs. These characters look so stupid. If you give characters normal hair and clothes, they can still be interesting, Nomura.

wtf did I just watch

 

[qualitydisc]

Noticed something interesting. Ship that crashes in the city here seems to be the same kind going to accordio in the night shot here

going by the back of the ships.

Very nice find. I love when people find little details like this. Looks like the same kind of ship might also be what crashes into the Treaty-Signing Party?

 

[SoraanTribal]

KH is a decent game, but avoid everything after that.

No way. KH2FM and BBS are both better than the original KH. I'd even go so far as to say DDD is a more enjoyable game as far as gameplay goes. The story goes off the deep end, but eh. ;P

 

[wario]

not sure if already mentioned.

is this a treasure chest? it was flashing for a sec before noctis does his teleport attack on a goblin.

 

[Falk]

No, that's very clearly the same pattern as every other particle in the effect. Just those few particles just so happened to make an interesting contour which extruded into an interesting 3D illusion.

 

[AuthenticM]

is this a treasure chest?

no

 

[Loke13]

The hell is this travesty? KH2 and BBS are really great games even 3D to a lesser extent of course.

 

[PshycoNinja]

I can't wait to play the demo. Tabata said in that dungeon there are powerful monsters and some items (weapon) at the end. Good to see real dungeons come back into FF. I want to see how it is to actually play. Can't be worse then whatever FFXIII battle system was.

Do we know what day and time (PST) it will be streaming on?

Would love to see Hashimoto and Nomura come in and talk about it a bit. (Pipe dream)

It's at 4AM PST on Thursday.

They better confirm manual mode. :|

 

[Sinfamy]

Why do things have to look normal? We've had 90% generic looking normal characters, I like different.
And it's a fantasy game. Is the design for Tidus any less ridiculous? Its fun, different and aesthetically pleasing.

 

[sappyday]

The patent is the only reason why I think there may be a chance but I doubt SE would be ambitious enough to include two battle systems. Also, I felt like Tabata would of confirmed it already.

Well, with how bad he chose his words last time, i wouldn't be so sure about it

And if they went to insert manual mode in the patent shows how it's actually in their interests to use it.
Also the patent was registered just recently, so unless any sudden changes, i guess it's still there (at least i hope!).

 

[gundalf]

That is distorted light from the motion blur effect.

 

[Nightengale]

Also, I felt like Tabata would of confirmed it already.

He has no twitter, the outrage about this is minimal compared to other similar cases, and the interviews have never given him an avenue to discuss the matter at length.

It's not like he did another new round of interviews after TGS where he's had time to react to this. Most of the news and various outlet interviews were around the same time, just released in different timing.

 

[Pachimari]

I don't think they'll have a manual mode. I think they are pretty set on the system now where you choose your gambits and user your attack/defend buttons, and then get the product out.

To me, the current described battle system sounds great.

Even so the current system doesn't sound that automated considering you will be going back and forth with the defend, attack, magic and warp buttons. Won't do you much good if your continually using one button. If your always defending then how do you expect to cause any damage and how do you expect to avoid enemy attacks if your continually attacking. You'll be alternating between things. Not like you'll be holding down any one button for longer than 20 seconds...

Yes, it's not literally going to be one button.

I also think it sounds fine in theory, possibly great in practice. The strategic planning of FFXII combined with more rhythmic immediate actions to keep you involved and attentive.

It'll probably be pretty good, in all honesty. People just need time to get over the fact that they're not getting KH without the Disbey parts.

 

[DiipuSurotu]

Manual mode will be in the International version. Final Fantasy XV International Manualus Modus Systemus.

 

[Squire]

You joke, but if people bitch about it just that much even after the fact, I could quite easily see them doing that.

 

[PshycoNinja]

Come now. We all know it will be called Final Fantasy XV International Final Mix Edition.

 

[KupoNut]

Curious to see if they'll show off the "Gambits" or any demo locales in that extended version or if it's just going to be the same demo from TGS with 5 minutes of more footage.

 

[Exentryk]

Here is the stream link btw - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CneDd6yyRf8

 

[Death Penalty]

Everyone comparing the battle system to XII baffles me a bit. The gambits are the only similarity that I think holds real water, otherwise it looks like night and day to me.

 

[NoctisVsStar]

Nomura won't be able to leave the KH dungeon until he's done with the game.. So he's drawing Sora's costumes in the meantime ;P

 

[Dark_castle]

Everyone comparing the battle system to XII baffles me a bit. The gambits are the only similarity that I think holds real water, otherwise it looks like night and day to me.

The battle transition is also fully seamless, like XII. The essential difference is one was more closer to traditional ATB formula while another is inspired by KH fast action combat.

Good thing for me, really. I've always wanted Gambit to be further explored, so while there is a loss of pure, twitch/reflex based KH battle system, a more tactical and strategic combat with micromanaging + relatively active, fast real time combat is equally appealing to me.

Wait will there be a stream today? Showing what?

Wait will there be a stream today? Showing what?

2nd Oct I believe.

Edit: I think it's basically an extended TGS presentation with material omitted from TGS.
