Not the typical luck-based 'death' from previous games imo.

Lol, it's different here. I never used Death in previous games, though.

They're focusing on fixing the console version, so a PC port maybe comes later.
Seeing as they haven't even announced a PC version...

i hope that all that fuckery with titles popping every time you cross to another territory is just for demo purposes
or there;s options to turn them off during battle

This was PS4 footage, no?
I wonder if we will start to see PS4K footage in gameplay trailers from now on, they should probably add a watermark to those.

This is probably the most boring animation for the spell in the series history.
They've got their hands full with the PS4/X1 versions,there's no need to complicate things even more right now.
You will have to wait a few years for the pc version.
That title belongs to FFXIII.
I doubt they'll make us wait that long after the initial release. Maybe a year and a half at the most.
I don't think they will use Pro footage for trailers or presentations. They never had any scruples to show us not so great looking promo footage. They often chose to show us the Xbox One version in presentations and gameplay streams instead of the prettier PS4 version. They also have been very candid about what footage they were showing to us till now. They either specifically told us or we could clearly see for ourselves because of the button mapping.
Last but not least the PS4 version isn't their priority but the base versions, that's what they said. They are also still working on the Pro version but plan to get it ready for release of the game. The footage shown to the press on TGS was actually just a video file not real gameplay.
I hope we will see some direct feed Pro footage before release since it will determine for me if I am getting the console or not just yet.
So is it death or ultra haste/time? Lol
on the other hand, if the pro mode is 'merely' checkerboard rendering with HDR, they may not want to waste the bandwidth of putting up a huge 4K trailer that many people can't run
That doesn't make any sense. They released the Tomb Raider and Deus Ex stuff just fine.
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)...
Reminds me of Horizon Zero Dawn and the constant chatter, annoying.
I was most impressed with the night time, it was actually dark. So few games actually manage that properly.
haha, i completely forgot about that.....SE have quite a bit of checkerboard rendering pro footage already out there.
Did the game has something we don't know yet ? I mean, there is new footage almost every weeks...
The game looks good though, I hope they'll release a Pro Version really soon.
The actual mesh warping does look a little messy (as is to be expected when applying something like that to every generic enemy in the game), but it's worth it for the effect (and also plays into a bit of an uncanny valley sort of thing, however unintentionally, in how it highlights the artificiality of the models in a manner that's more commonly the domain of glitches and hacking). It's an interesting take on the spell, but I'm not sure if they should have the transformation persist if you don't manage to kill an enemy with it - it looks okay as part of the magic sequence, but seeing enemies (especially the soldiers) walking around and attacking normally with the shrunken mesh afterwards looks kind of awkward.

They've been mostly showing stuff from the same area since early August now.

I looked it up. Your right, just some black and gray special effects.

Holy shit Noctis is rolling like a normal video game character instead of that weird shrug dodge?!
Well, the game was supposed to be released a few days ago originally. They had a whole marketing blitz planned that they now have to extend for two more months.
Was that a poison status icon at the end? how did he get poisoned?
I think you are talking about the normal "hold the button" evade and yes it's still there

Perhaps a reference to the technique megiddo from Phantasy Star 4 where a bunch of JRPGs get a huge amount of references from.
Hope the other ring magic is more impressive. This was cool for a use or two.
If they want to sell it for 20 bucks sure. 1 year max for announcement.
not even announced yet.

Goodness gracious this is insanely good looking!
Stella or Cor?
That could be a great moment, but it might be constrained a little by the tone requirements of a mainline title - if the nature of the 'goddess of death' and the human imperial soldiers were revised for that reason, a player-driven execution could be a little difficult to pull off.
Still, if they could get away with conveying the impact through implication instead of explicit body horror, it could give the spell/the Lucii magic in general some further gravity.

Oh well... at least now we can dodge like normal video game humans!

Seems to be a high level spell. I think it's meant to speed up the process of finishing side quests during end game.
