Final Fantasy XV Gameplay Analysis [GIF Heavy]

Great analysis indeed op. When I saw the video during the show, it reminded me of DMC's fighting system, did anyone else think that as well? I miss the old fight/magic/item system but I guess it's time to move on. Thank god for my 3DS.

Most anticipated game for me! While I don't wanna sound like a stuck up poop nose, I do hope that X1 won't hold the PS4 back. Jesus, I would literally throw myself of the balcony !_!

This is the scene that does it for me. The way he emerges from the water and shakes his head is just unreal. Not to mention the camera ebbs and flows with the waves. I wonder if swimming is going to be an actual mechanic in the game, though it seems like it'd be difficult to create that scene without it.
 
Can't stop watching these videos, lol. Gifs of the same part in the announcement trailer and in the gameplay video to go along with this Nomura quote from the Famitsu interview:
I'm pretty sure that answer was specifically related to the Kingdom Hearts 3 teaser, not XV.

But he isn't even wet.

Noctis really needs a battle stance. As soon as he stops moving he just sort of stands there.

Given they're developing on an overspec PC first I don't think there's anything to worry about unless they try and force visual parity...
 
OP this is amazing. Analysis/speculation or not, this thread is loaded with more info than some of the actual manuals that some games are shipped with.

The water looks terrible.

Just downloaded and watched. Fucking insane. Solidifies my choice of this being game of show. I honestly did not expect SE to regain my trust in one fell swoop, but I love everything about this. It's Advent Children the game. The visuals, design, lighting, characters, enemies, scale, draw distance, textures, geometry, exaggerated combat etc, all just looks so so good.

I did a double take at that scene...thought it was CG for a second.
 
What? It looks incredible. Maybe try to look at the full hd trailer, not some 120p pixel gif.

I have to agree with Computer. The rest of what's there is great, IMO, but the water, especially in the 1080p trailer, looks... not consistent with everything else. *shrug*

Edit: Of course, that isn't to say it's unimpressive. There's a shit-ton of water being rendered there, among other things.

Let's just hope the story and characters part can hold a candle to it. Last thing we need is another FFXIII style disaster of a plot.

I can't download this video for some reason :v I want to watch on moi ps3 (to watch frame by frame) Thanks for sharing

I think they have enough time to plan things and avoid wasted potential in the story..XIII's story took a hit just as every aspect of the game did.Villains like Nabaat , Rosch and Cid are never given enough screen time (despite the massive amounts of cutscenes in the game) Sazh life before the purge and his marriage are never explored...Hope's family situation is never explained clearly..Are his parents divorced ? and even in the ending his father simply disappears..The list goes on...Too many questions unanswered.

True true. But at least it looks a little more open than FFXIII. Hopefully the exploration and gameplay offers similar flexibility and expanse as the combat.

Dunno if someones already posted it here, but I posted this in another thread. My favourite bit from the trailer.

That part absolutely blows me away...I particularly love the detail on the hallway as he runs towards Leviathan.The quality is outstanding

Oh darn, seems I was too late.
 
The thing that has me disturbed is how the f they can say they are thinking to change engine to Luminous?. Is it still using the FFXIII engine?. How long it takes it to come out then?.

Thanks for sharing, Kagari!


Also, the water does look like it could use a little more tessellation.

Well it's still in an early process. Also it seems the game has a lot to render. That scene seems to take place on the bottom of the waterfalls, so if the camera turn around behind Noctis you'll see the entire kingdom. To me its impressive considering all its rendering. But the funny thing is that Noctis's hair still looks amazing afterwards.

ULTROS!

People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.
I hope the composers here will be Uematsu and Shimomura.

Or mediafire, best sharing service (after the death of megaupload) and supports resumes with download managers too.
