this whole basing it off reality concept is really killing the fantasy in it for me that is generally a re-occuring theme. the whimsical feel of changing your destiny...it's not apparent in the E3/2014 trailers. | ||

Maybe he just has the starting gear, which would look plain? :D while i do feel like you have a point, the fact it was stated by the above poster that the director changed, makes me stick to my guns. i'm not hyped for this project anymore after hearing tetsuya nomura was recently taken off the position of head director. it's pretty obvious that square-enix is uncertain the direction they want to go with it, so they booted him off the project. because of this, they had to re-model how noctis looks entirely which is why he looks completely different from the other trailers. you can tell from a mile away if it's tetsuya no mura's character design or it's another artist. i'm also sure the delay was completely due to the changing of the directors, that probably added at least a 1-2 year setback. while i am a huge fan of KH series, i was more of a fan of him being the main artist or director on the games i've came to fall in love with, F-10, f-13 series, etc. having him taken off this makes me hesitant to purchase it now. it might be a flop like ff12. the game is starting to look more western based by the minute (not that there's anything wrong with western games) but a western theme added would result in a remake of ff12 imo. i hope i don't come across like i'm bitching or expecting to much, but this type of delay due to indecision is irritating and should be expected by the loyal fans at this point. | ||

I refer to the story trailer, not the gameplay one I just realized was posted below it. It makes me a little fearful for the new Xenoblade game. | ||

What's amazing in FF7 to FF10 is that they make only SOME attacks look powerful, especially the final blow. Right now there're less pre-framing shots but more about every attack / dodge / movement has to look cool and this takes time for the character to make that happen. The way they showed the character just "dodging" all the attacks look really weird. | ||
