Ah, that's what Beerus used in a recent Dragon Ball Super episode! xD
Looking pretty sick though. One more month!

It's a new reveal, twitch stream yesterday had a
really bad
He might've been in the last world of wonder trailer but I forget.
In 2011 versus trailer alone both fire and lightning were used. of course we don't know if there was two types of magic back then normal and ring magic.
Yesterday's TwitchCon stream:

Bandersnatch is from FFV, btw:
Generic buttom prompts suggest otherwise.

Why have a trailer with poorly executed gameplay in it? I mean, the number of times that Noctis is hit out of the Death animation is really large in this trailer.
Also, the visual effect is really quite violent this time. They just sort of shrivel up and explode.

man, the whole background 'uh!'/'oohff!'/'augh!' gruntin'n'groanin', combined with them trademark 'random remarks', is just sooo overdone. i can't imagine this being much fun to listen to beyond the first few hours (if even that 
)...
)...The button prompts indicate it's their PC dev build. But the Xbone footage shown on the stream yesterday was a huge improvement from the last weeks' builds and didn't look much worse:
LODs and grass looks so much better now on Xbone. Much less shadow and grass pop-in too.

Still very pleased they added back in those specular shaders for grass.
They probably wanted to show that it's not an autowin button, I guess.

i suspect most will get used to it. it is a bit much at first hearing, though...
also, mighty impressive improvement on XB1 version.
Ignis gonna have a fun time with those Garula sirloins.
OMG, the noises that poor Gladio makes when struck by lightning. D:

If you look at the button prompts it looks like it's pc dev. I'm guessing so they can control which enemies pop up for the trailer.
He was in World of Wonder trailer 2. :tiduslaughing
Completely barren before lots of grass now:
To be fair, SE has used generic button prompts in the past for other stuff that wasn't PC footage. For example FFXIII, they edited them to remain platform agnostic when uploading said videos to the console makers.
Did you watch Brotherhood as well? It's pretty good.

Looked great, bandersnatch design is cool.
This is also Business Division 2 and their marketing who don't care what state they show their game in, let alone have time to edit button prompts.

Yeah.
My hype levels are through the roof.
I also played both demos, extensively.
The lore of this game is already so cool.
Agreed, I was actually really surprised by some of the stuff in Kingsglaive, that I didn't expect to be in the game at all. I hope we get some fights like the ones torwards the end of the movie.

True. They need to get around to uploading that Pro footage at some point.
While it does look cool, would it not make more sense for only living organic beings to be affected by this and everything else to be immune? Seeing robots and stuff get skinny before they poof is surreal
Magic is apart of every FF.

So do I, and watching some demo gameplay from last E3 it seems our wishes will become true.
The scen with the giant...
Kingsglaive has some astounding battle scenes, like the one you say towards the end and the one at the very beginning of the movie.
Just, wow.

Poor trailer.
I like the Death spell at a concept level, with it slowly draining away the life of an enemy and them shrinking and then finally disappearing. Good work. This also gives some links to that Shinigami figure we saw around Lucis, and now we see that the ring of Lucii gives the Death spell.

I mean... they had to extend their marketing schedule somehow I guess lol.
To be fair nothing on the channel nor video refers to it as a trailer.
You wouldn't call the behind-the-scenes VA stuff a trailer, either.

I'm very curious to see what Insomnia will look like in-game after Kingsglaive. Let's just say the invasion made a little bit more of a mess than I thought it would back in the Versus days.
Good point. I'd bet they're conveniently ignoring this because of the change from real soldiers to robot soldiers, they probably don't want Death to not work on what is probably the most common enemy in the game.
Yeah, I agree, it's a very cool spell conceptually, and its lore implications are really interesting, and bring back an element that many thought was gone from the game.
Gameplay-wise, though, this shit looks boring as hell. Only way I could see myself using it is to quickly get rid of weaker enemies when revisiting early areas for end-game content, but it's still quicker to just run away from them.
Uhhhh ok.
It will totally be a waste of time and useless to most of the actually important enemies.

The way it works here is that it constantly drains MP when you cast (hold) it, and then it slowly kills the enemy. The time it takes to kill enemies probably depends upon their levels/resistances/etc. Some enemies might be immune to it too.
The concept seems that it speeds up the passage of time, so even robots/etc decay and disappear eventually.
Junction 100 deaths to ST-ATK and see fuckers fall like flies.
