WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOUR FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE

 

[AESplusF]

DAMN.

How many more console generations in order to have those visuals in-game? :O

1-2 at most

 

[Skel1ingt0n]

I'm not gonna lie - I have a very keen eye, I think, for CG.

And when I first opened this thread, those first ~three pictures looked live-action. Period. On first glance, I was legit confused. That's never happened to me.

I think it's her eyes.

 

[Dereck]

Nothing?

 

[Ishida]

I honestly don't see anything wrong with that screenshot of Luna. Her eyes look fine to me... :/

They say she never sleeps.

Same here. Ignoring the cartoon looking monsters, I didn't even think twice about it until I started to wonder why SE would make a live action FF movie. Then I looked closer and noticed that the princess girl's seat looks CG and the warrior girl's hair looks CG.

Other than that...wow.

 

[Crossing Eden]

WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOUR FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE

She looks like an actual person, (surprise surprise human skin isn't perfect), instead of a 3D anime figurine.

 

[karasu]

I had a really hard time determining if this was CGI or reality. Jesus.

 

[Marmaladefire]

I don't think anything is wrong with Luna's face? I mean, beyond how bland she's always been.

 

[Baroquemantic]

Lawd this looks amazing. Can't wait til we get games that look like this.

 

[spazchicken]

Main character is rocking the mullet hard.

 

[Mcdohl]

Terrible IQ though.

Spoiler

Looking amazing!!!

 

[Bladenic]

WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOUR FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE

She looks old as fuck too. All the men look hot or grizzled and she looks old and ugly. Poor her.

 

[Comfort Jones]

WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOUR FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE

I think we're entering the uncanny valley here.

 

[sappyday]

This is basically Versus XIII the Movie

 

[Ran rp]

her left eye kinda looks like it's swimming away

edit: how does she look old? what?

 

[Soriku]

WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOUR FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE

Her super pale blue eyes don't really complement how they modeled her face.

 

[Metalingus5150]

We still have a long way to go. lol

 

[Ran rp]

This is basically Versus XIII the Movie

i'm not seeing it, tbh. it almost looks like a plain old sci-fi flick.

 

[spazchicken]

She's also got softballs for eyes. They probably enlarged them slightly to give her a more anime look.

 

[wmlk]

Dammit, her face bothers me too now.

 

[HvySky]

Man, this is making me a little bummed that we aren't getting these character designs in the actual game. Oh well. The CGI is crazy impressive. Had to do a double take on a few of them; shit looks real!

WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOUR FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE

reference to emma roberts?

kinda looks like her

 

[Exentryk]

Just showed these shots to a few colleagues and they asked where the movie was being shot, and who the actors were. Their expressions when I told them it was CGI was priceless. One of them said that the Luna shot looks exceptionally good.

 

[kurahador]

My god the facial details is insane.

Pretty sure they were going for a younger Lena Headey,

she's the VA.

Of course this is mocapped/acted though right? Somewhere there is a group of people spending their SE checks who look at least 70% like these characters in the OP.

But she looks absolutely nothing like her.

 

[Obliterator]

Wow looks gorgeous. Excited for this one

 

[ULTROS!]

As much as they look good, the supporting cast (except the girls) look the same to me... Like there's nothing that makes them stand out.

 

[Dark_castle]

Luna must have not slept well. Those were some pretty heavy eye bags.

 

[wmlk]

As much as they look good, the supporting cast (except the girls) look the same to me... Like there's nothing that makes them stand out.

Yeah really, Luna and Crowe are the ones that stand out.

There is no room for diversity among human characters in a Japanese made fantasy movie. You know this.

 

[Newtype-001]

Luna still looks Anemic
Other than that
AAHHHBGGNGGH

Definitely is mocapped, but it doesn't necessarily need to be similar looking people doing the mocapping. Be interesting to see how the faces look close up in motion with all the voice acting and other effects.

King Regis got redesigned based off of his performance capture actor.

 

[Dice//]

boom

 

[sappyday]

Why can't Luna look like that in the actual game. If Regis can look the same then so can she.

 

[Exentryk]

Do we know who designed the characters for this movie? Is it Roberto Ferrari?

 

[Ran rp]

i actually forgot that regis is in the film

 

[ULTROS!]

I guess it's true that the more realistic the characters approach, the more plain and standard they look

Spoiler

heh

[Bladenic]

She's the English VA, would they really model the character after the English VA? Especially when Luna looks vastly different in-game.

 

[Exentryk]

Guess I'll be picking up the blu ray whenever it releases:

 

[kurahador]

Man I wish the game and the movie uses the same character design or vice versa.
These kind of inconsistencies really grinds my gear.

 

[spazchicken]

Seeing as how all the characters are white for some reason, yes, I could see that happening. It's happened before with games like MGSV.

I'm confused as to how such a young looking character could have her voice though. That's not going to be strange at all...

 

[BY2K]

What kind of black magic is at work, here!?

 

[the_sun_king]

Is it surprising? A lot of CG films/games model their characters off of the actors that portray them these days. An example, Uncharted 4's Drake looks a lot more like Nolan North than previous iterations.

There is that weird dissonance with Luna in-game, though, I'll give you that; she's still a Tetsuya Nomura design to some degree, so Tabata and his team might have wanted to be respectful of that and not alter her design to match the film? This is something the press should ask him about.

 

[Ran rp]

wait wtf is attached to his head?


punished regis?

Lord Stark

Is Charles Dance going to voice Iedola in the movie?
