lol.
I don't know about multiple rings, but even with only one, it makes sense with this game's combat system that all they had to do was equip the ring in order to use Death.
With the ring equipped, O could be Death, Square could be that barrier thing Regis uses in Kingsglaive, and Triangle would be some other kind of magic.
Holy shit this looks awesome. the best spell so far.

This new area is so good.
For how the Ascension grid looked before (half empty for every character) i suspected it would have expanded when you obtained the Lucii Ring, granting access to Royal Magic for Noctis and Kingsglaive abilities for the party.
Now that they changed it, i don't know anymore.
But yeah, no way Death is the only Royal Magic.

Famitsu hinted there was more ring magic, Death was just one example. Also, so much for that 4chan leaker being right on everything.
Why, what did he say?

Shuya: "Just in case that some of you missed the information from last week, other ring magics have been confirmed other than Death. There will also be a handful of ring magic that are unique to FFXV, while also including some classic spells like Death."
People asked him what ring magic did and he said "it wasn't really a thing."'

Anything to confirm that the footage was actually from an X1 and not a pc using an xbox controller?

The graphics. No way in hell was that on pc. Upgraded xbox for sure.
Nothing but "SE has been honest and they never tried to hide how bad Xone version looked" and "PC version would look better (One of the video they showed today is from PC build, and it looks better than the Xone videos.)".
Hell yeah. FF hasn't been introducing new stuff for a long time. Some new spells would be nice.

Do we know if the entire video we've seen today was in this region? I'm not sure if we knew the name already, but seems like Lestallum is in Cleigne if this is proven true.
Cleigne seems to be west of Lestallum

That bandersnatch is sweet. Makes me think of the chort from Witcher 3.

The optimization has done wonders. If the whole game looks this good with minimal to no FPS drops, then it should be good.
Any footage from PC has always had generic button prompts rather than any platform specific ones, I think

yeah the design was very Witcher 3 esque, looking forward to play it, shut off the music and start playing ONE AT A TIME! ONE AT A TI-E-UM
I think ring magic works just like how you craft magic in ffxv. Where you can only choose one slot for that kind of magic.
So I'm guessing that's how the person playing could just choose ring magic without other choices because death is tied to it like a slot.
Which I think is pretty cool in terms of balancing it. I kinda want the ring magic to affect our health a lot more than mp, that way we use it only when we need to kind of thing.

I hope Luminous is working 100% now so Square Enix may use it again.

I'm so pumped for this game!
the contrast between the spell and the environment makes it feel even darker than that. it makes noctis seem evil. edit: it almost makes him look like a daemon himself.
poor garula :'|

I don't think they cut it out, but they possibly toned it down.
I'm sure it will. Not sure how far they'll go though.
I see.
Is this still based on the expectation that insane plot twists will happen?
I think the time skip basically signals that some things will have to happen by default to take them from young adult hood to early to mid 30s, but now that we already know that we will be having a timeskip, that plot point isn't going to be so shocking.
While i obviously think serious stuff will happen, i doubt it will be anywhere near as dark as it could have been given the source material. I mean they still have you fighting robot soldiers perpetually after all, i don't think they will be skewing things that far.

Death looks boss as fuck. Wish I was able to wait till the game came out to see it but not self control.
Good. I hope that plays a part in the game.

And Uncharted has you fighting hundreds of human beings. Red Dead deals with actual mature subject matter but has you kill hundreds of humans as well. How does this play into if it's "dark" or not? Especially when we all know these guys would be fodder enemies no matter what?

So, Death is suitably horrifying.
yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees
That poor Garula, though. Ack.

Eh? I'm just saying its not gonna be a slaughter house. This game is rated T for Teen, so they have to have limitations somewhere, they arent gonna go Type 0 on us in regards to some twist where things go really sour out of nowhere
They can if the ESRB stuff is anything to go by. I'm just saying robot enemies is a weird thing to make a point on if a game is dark or not. We've seen this stuff not matter at all.
Cleigne seems to be west of Lestallum
Do you guys think the bottom map will be all the open world of XV?
Maybe the other areas you only get to visit them as hubs accessed via a 'cutscene' driven travel sequence (Altissia will probably fit this description).
That is definitely what I believe.
Robot enemies says they are not going to go too deep with the mass slaughter of humans, or atleast not focus on that, so i don't see a big body count happening in this game. I think they may have also resolved that for the previous movie as well because that was where the shit was supposed to really hit the fan, that big war time invasion.
I think that whole map will be open world and explorable. Its such a huge map...i doubt they would have it all on there if it wasn't going to be explored. Why think its just going to be a super small bitty piece on the bottom? This is an ambitious game they are going for

I'm honestly not sure at this point. I think one we leave the Duscae/Cleigne area for plot reasons we probably won't be able to go back for a good while. Maybe at the end of the game things will completely open up which is what the airship is for.
