Nope story is contained. Lil call backs like enemies and summons but they all differ lore wise and for story purposes for each game you're good to go.

Forget swimming or climbing trees, Noctis can't even hold onto ledge. Talk about a wasted opportunity to incorporate some environmental interactivity.
That's perfect! Thank you.
They're already doing a lot as it is.

The lighting being cast through the trees is beautiful.

It's not a big deal to not have it, but it would have been nice. Many major titles have them now, because it makes your character felt like a living person who actually interacts accordingly with the objects around him/her. For a game like FFXV which boasts about having realistic, grounded animations and stuff, this is a weird thing to be absent.
I even remember this feature was present in 2013 as part of the launch trailer, so unless that was pure cutscene, I don't understand why they decided to take it out.
Any pics?

The new footage is gorgeous, I hope this is actually what they've been able to achieve on console.

This looks amazing. I am thoroughly impressed with everything I've seen in this thread today.

Sensory overload. That gameplay looks incredible, better than anything I have seen in the game thus far
Man... The air combat is going to be glorious.

Okay that flying monster battle got me a little pumped.
Okay..that got me hype. Seeing Noctis warping after that bird creature was amazing. Which makes me wonder how the gameplay is going to actually be

And he has a display case.... well behind the counter?
What is going on with the layout of this interior?

I'm on my phone so maybe I can't tell...but is it just me or does that new gameplay look pretty damn good compared to recent showings?

One of the reasons I think is the fact that they added shadows to the trees in the distance. They don't look as flat and disconnected as before.
That helps a lot, giving the environment more visual depths.

Really hope the adamantoise battle ingame isn't the same as the big ass turtle thing that was also in XIII. That was an incredibly bogus fight if even slightly under leveled IIRC

Unless it's scripted, no. Cause the only big things I can think of are Cronos GOW3 and Asuras wrath Wysen, but again highly scripted

Dear lord the Adamantoise. My goodness.
Now let's hope it's actually fun.

Each time they show something my jaw drops..It has legit been a long time since I was excited for a game this much.
You know that feeling when you were younger and got a new game it'd feel like Christmas.
That feeling has been long gone for a while now. 2 Months to restore that feeling.

As much as people like to naysay this game I can really respect how much further they're pushing a lot of things as compared to any Final Fantasy before it. The adamantoise is strong proof of that.

Fucking hell, that Adamantoise is gigantic. I have to admit, one of the things that made me fall in love with the FF series were the summons, etc, and to see them and giant creatures on such a huge scale is amazing. It's like how I pictured them when I was a kid, except FFXV does it so much better!

Yeah, this is way more than just ambition in terms of graphics, it's pushing so much tech as well, not just for FF but video games in general. XIII never got this treatment.

Man that looks fun. I already know I'll enjoy this game. The only thing I'm worried about is performance, but it looks pretty good in this footage. And I enjoyed Witcher 3 pre-performance patch soooo. Hopefully a reasonably stable 30 fps, I'm expecting drops during intense battles though.

Don't care so much about performance, just want a fun and diverse game, and man, this one looks so gooooood

Same. Also, I just want a good story. They've yet to prove themselves in that department with this game. Well Kingsglaive was good, but different teams.
Huh, I wonder what that beam is on the right.
Good catch! It seems to go into the tower. Maybe these towers actually serve a purpose beyond being warp-points.
Yeah, the only remotely damageable looking part here is the eye.
When I first saw this gif on mobile I thought why the fuck isn't the camera zooming out, until I noticed that it already IS zoomed out very far and Noctis is just a small dot. lol

I wish these giant enemies would be more reactive when you're attacking them apart from going through stock animation cycles whether you're doing any damage to them or not. I'm not exactly compelled by giant enemies, either... but then I've never been one for Monster Hunter games.
