Noctis has a hell of a brogue kick.
Back when the game was Versus XIII, Nomura said it would have day/night and weather system. I hope that hasn't changed.

Apart from a few new gifs, not much has changed from the core concepts. And we didn't really see anything new like Summons, Customization, menu screens etc.
But we're getting a demo in 6 months anyway.
oh so its an accident..I don't mean to laugh at poor folks' misfortune :/

XV has a proper day night cycle.
True, but Final Fantasy is not meant to be a lightning-quick action game like Bayonetta. There are other things to keep in mind, like party management. Plus as someone said before, having the combat be slightly slower allows for better reaction time for the player.
If Dark Souls has taught us anything, it's that sometimes the best strategic combat is a little bit slower and more methodical.
Then again, I bet they will make his lightning movements pretty simple, like pointing the stick in the direction of the enemy and pressing a specific button combination. It will probably amount to little more than a quick-time event style button press.

Don't just do a cartwheel just because you can :/

A lot can change. Especially now with Nomura gone. I feel like they ousted him because he was having a Ueda moment, and wanted all this shit that couldn't happen on time.
I just hope not a lot of content is cut =\

Huh i didn't notice until just now that Ignis actually throws 2 more knives while cartwheeling.

This is hilarious. Please tell me this part of some comedy sketch, and not an actual attempt at being cool. The guy whiffing at air by the side is amazing.

No one wants a throne you've been sitting on!
Fantastic looking graphics, but still am highly suspicious if the game will actually turn out like this just with how FF13 was originally shown to "play".
That and further cements my utter hatred for the ugly ass design of these characters. Its like he picked a bunch of hosts from random in Kabukicho and digitized them. Jesus christ.

if you watch it carefully, it seems Noctics did 2 things: co-op with buddy and dodge enemy's attack
Haha, nope it's a legit scene in Arrow.

Maybe it's a game mechanic that avoids collision with your party's AI so anytime you about to bump Into eachother there's a specific animation

It's in interviews, and you can also see the same areas in trailers with day/night/evening times. I had a little day night section in this "everything we know" thread - http://www.neoseeker.com/forums/32229/t1878468-final-fantasy-xv-everything-we-know-so-far/
Even in the TGS trailer, you can see it:
And that ending part at night, which is also in the same area above some hill.

Your first point doesn't really have anything to do with anything, but FF has always been evolving and changing things up. If you really want to go that way, then why not mention that FF isn't supposed to be anything else other than turn based menu style? It can do what it wants to lol. I'm not trying to be rude, but the first sentence doesn't really add anything.
I agree with the party management thing, but I still doubt bringing it to KH level speed would be a problem.
To the Dark Souls statement, there are both very good slow and fast combat systems. Well my overall point is I think it'd be fine if it were a bit faster, which I think it will be when you progress through whatever level/skill system they have.

It was Ignis's dodge roll. Aqua had this in BBS.

Some of the comments on this video, man...
Are people that restrictive with what they enjoy? Why does it matter if it's 'not Final Fantasy' in your disposition of the game? You see people saying that it's not Final Fantasy over and over again but they never say why it's an issue. 'Oh, realtime combat? I'm not playing it it's not Final Fantasy.'
I think people should just judge the video game for what it is - a video game. This looks like a good video game to me and that's why I'm interested.

This. More complex, cooler looking animations over boring "realistic" ones any day. I don't play FF games because they are a sim.

Man, really hope to hear Final Fantasy main theme by Shimomura.

So good. Shame XIII (and X) skipped it.

Really the only problem I have with this is that it looks very abrupt since the first animation does not fluidly lead into the second animation. In fact, the first animation seems to have had the very end of it cut off so Noctis could initiate his dodge animation. But in an action game, this is unavoidable and when it comes down to it, I'd rather have dodging prioritized over Noctis fully finishing an animation like that. Of course, there will be attacks that you can't cancel out of (I assume), but in those cases you have to be strategic in how you use them.
Edit: Looking more closely at the animation, I'd have to see the first animation without the dodge to know if it was cancelled out of. At the very least, there is no delay. Animation plays, dodge initiated, attack engaged. If the actual game is that fluid with little delays between actions, I'll be happy.

Christ.... There's a guy literally swinging wildly at the air doing nothing while the other dude flips off a wall.
But back on topic, I find the cheesy flips and cartwheels in this trailer to be graceful/fluid

X had it but in a very stealthy way
No that was Prelude. I was referring to http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Final_Fantasy_(Theme)
oh apologies...
I just quickly assumed it would be prelude lol
Yeah I'd love to heart in the game.Its an amazing theme.
Could be fluid interaction when you bump each other during fights. Kinda like how Drake in Uncharted will automatically touch the wall when he gets close to it.

The first sentence was in direct relation to the second. I suppose it doesn't matter that much in the end because they could make the actions very simple and scripted instead of giving the player ultimate freedom. And although I'm not familiar with all Kingdom Hearts games, as I only played the first, I don't remember there being more intricate movements like shown in these trailers. Having more intricate control over those might be a key element to the battle system. Or, as I said earlier, it could be nothing more than a glorified quick time button press. Not to mention that Kingdom Hearts' gameplay feels like a watered down, simplified system that doesn't have much complexity to it.
But basically the point is that Final Fantasy is a team-based game, not a single character action game like Bayonetta where all you have to worry about is one character. It's also very possible that they slowed it down because camera control looks like it would be a bit crazy if Noctis was moving as fast as the earlier videos.
However, this is all speculation and the gameplay style could be a lot different.
That shit is annoying too, but at least it won't interrupt your combat with this fucking asshole jumping over you.
Imagine a very hard hunt, you're about to die but so is the enemy, so you decide to go in and deliver the final blow.
Then Prompto comes running and bumps into you and the cool ass animation plays and you die
THANK YOU FOR PLAYING

Oh I get ya. I was too focused on how you said "FF isn't meant to be" that the main point flew over my head
