Yeah, I think this is more accurate.

However, I have the opposite opinion. I thought FFXII was amazing (the best battle system) and while I haven't played the XIII sequels yet, XIII is in my top 5 FF games. Loved the battle system and the story. It wasn't as confusingly complex as XII but was still rich and so expertly plotted with all the flashbacks revealing just a bit of info at a time. It's right up there with VII and VIII for me.

Now for this new trailer, that blonde girl's voice acting

The sequels will piss you off if you liked the richness of FF13.
The sequels screw up the whole story unncessarily, add so many bs new characters and plot devices plus Sazh (who imo had the best side story in FF13) is pretty much forgotten and treated like a 2nd rate NPC.

Mess at FFXV about to be a bunch of flashbacks based on what happened 15 years ago (who's still watching the stream)

EDIT: Now they're saying they changed the design of Regis for a specific reason. I bet it's to make him older and kill him at some point in the plot.

I loved XIII-2. But it basically retconned XIII's ending randomly and came up with a whole bunch of nonsense that wasn't even mentioned in XIII. Noel was a better MC than Lightning. Caius was better than Barthandelous etc.

Regis design has changed.

Why is there no voice acting?

A 2017 release date tea

From what we've seen of FFXV, they have a lot of work to do to finish it (especially if it's suppose to release before the next Gamescon which is probably August again).


EDIT: I'm cringing at how they're trying to force down our throats that Luna is strong (based on inner strength not outer).
They want us to think she's truly the heroin in the game despite her not being playable in any way. I can't

[I Am Music]

The more i hear this the more my blood boils it's everything we feared. **** you Tabata.

Luna is not "weak," "she does not need protection." Okay. Good. Hope they live up to this.

People started a hate train on how FFXII ended Final Fantasy but it has one of the greatest stories of any Final Fantasy game, some of the greatest gameplay of any Final Fantasy game, the deepest lore out of any Final Fantasy game, the greatest dialogue and voice acting out of any Final Fantasy game, the second highest rated Final Fantasy game in history, and the winner of several GOTY awards. Matsuno's legacy lives on even if his game was a bastardized form of what he originally wanted. The political drama we all needed but didn't deserve.

I loved XII and will always defend it


imo the only thing "killing" FF is Square's inability to release main titles in a timely fashion. They're doing this with Kingdom Hearts as well. So much time spent on sequels and spin-offs (though I imagine they're much cheaper to produce), changing directors mid-development, MMO titles that don't appeal to everyone, etc.

It's kind of mind-boggling that they've only managed to release 5 flagship titles over the last 15 years... 3 if you're like me and don't care for MMOs. The occasional dud of a game would be acceptable if they were released frequently, but Square hypes a game for years and years and then it disappoints...

I still have hope for FFV though. The battle system looks fun to me, which is a big part of the appeal.

Today is not looking good.. they are looking like middle school kids that didn't do their project.

Now they're saying airships may not be possible meanwhile No Man's Sky has over Billions of planets that you can fly around and explore fully on foot or by air. BYE Square

TBH I fully expect KH3 to come out before XV. I wouldn't be shocked if they announce a release window at the big Disney event three weeks from now. Disney is forcing them to get this **** out.

Airships not confirmed because of technical issues and no voice acting in the trailer cause they had no time to do so. What the entire **** why did he even go to gamescom for this?

[Skywalker]

OMG. Tabata. You are FAILING me.

They're desperately trying to get people to be invested into FFXV when all signs are starting to point that people just aren't hyped anymore.

Everyone is starting to just worry about FFVII remake and KH3. FFXV is just taking way too long.

[Skywalker]

I'm sorry but a final version should be ready much sooner than this... and you can almost guarantee that Square is going to want this out asap and will probably push for a Q4 2016 release. Hope this isn't a rushed mess.

KH3 and VIIR has more of a chance to come out first. Disney is in their ass to get it out and it's on UE4 and VIIR is rumored to be on UE4 as well.

Say what you want about Motomu Toriyama (terrible writer, turns his females into his personal fetishes, chases an AAA atmosphere that might not fit the Final Fantasy atmosphere) but at least he can release three games in three years.

Watch KH3 have Frozen promo intertwined in the plot. Disney knows exactly why they really want this game out
