The person hasn't read the whole blog post yet, so we'll see. I don't think that other person from dev is Nomura. He's too big of a name to be mentioned anonymously.
Apparently, Nomura did not direct the E3 2013 trailer. It was put together by Tabata and someone else.
TABATA'S GLORIOUS VISION
That shouldn't be surprising. Tabata took over Nomura in 2012, didn't he?

No, at the end of 2013.
If Tabata was in charge of that trailer though why has anything since failed to live up to it?

I kind wished more recent games implemented the special statuses into the plot in FF.
Could you imagine needing to intentionally cast Mini, Imp, or even Frog on yourself in order to infiltrate an enemy location to collect information or sneak into a facility with very strong exterior security.
The only time this actually was done was way back in FF3 to go into the Mini Village. I think there was one part in FFV which you needed Frog to enter a sewer grate to go through an aqueduct or something.
I could totally see Ignis needing to convince Noctis to turn into a Frog to spy on a Niflheim enemy camp to find plans or what objective is and report back to him in some kind of "Sneak in undetected and disguised" sort minor stealth sequence.

Kh3 trailer was even more fluff than the fluff in the ffxv trailer. Fluffception.Didn't Nomura present the 2013 FF13 Versus trailer?
Than he said "one more" And we got the KH3 trailer.
But you know what, cool if it was Tabata all along,that was my favorite trailer actually

So the actual blog says Tabata selected the gameplay (battle) sequences from the 2013 trailer, such as the Iron Giant.

TABATA'S GLORIOUS VISION
lmao, this is the ultimate plot twist holy shit
What did they remove?Makes sense then. I thought that it was strange considering the 2013 trailer consisted of elements that Tabata has since altered or removed from the base game.
That entire invasion is gone isn't it?What did they remove?
The blog doesn't actually say this.
Oh is that just the entire premise of the movie?That entire invasion is gone isn't it?
Edit:well it happened but we don't play it anymore.

The Altissia invasion or the Lucis invasion? The Lucis one is now Kingsglaive but there was no gameplay footage of the the Lucis invasion in the 2013 trailer (just those old CG scenes of the King squaring off with Idola). I don't think the Altissia invasion has been removed, just that it probably won't play like that section. I could be wrong though.
That entire invasion is gone isn't it?

Yea at first Noctis and co was supposed to be there when it happened.Oh is that just the entire premise of the movie?
YupThe invasion is now the kingsglaive movie, which is basically a remixed opening of what would've been the actual opening of the game.
The last E3 trailer had a certain scene from the playable Leviathan setpiece that barely resembles the concept scene on the 2013 trailer. I think they reworked the Altissia invasion, but it's still there.
Well so much for that.The blog doesn't actually say this.

The blog specifically mentions this trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pTQ2C978xVc
which is the E3 2013 battle trailer they released after the main one debuted. Specifically the blog says Tabata and one of the staff in charge of the game's camera worked on editing the Behemoth and Iron Giant scenes with the cooperation of the development team.

I mean at the end of the day the final result is what important. He can make great trailers but was he delivering that. On the flip side Tabata may not be able to create good trailers(lies) but if delivers a good game id prefer that.Well so much for that.
It wouldn't make sense for Tabata to be amazing at cutting trailers and then lose all ability to do so, shortly afterwards.
Also people replying to Kagari's question, citing that the footage were "bullshots" are completely missing the point. People weren't blown away by the 2013 reveal trailer because of the graphics (on the contrary, they were still using PS3 models). People were blown away by the pacing, grandeur, and tension in that reveal trailer. It was simply a wonderfully directed vertical slice. Tabata might be making the greatest FF ever, but he's proven he's not great at creating that same sense of grandeur over the years.
Oh for sure. If the game is better, I'd muuuch rather have that. Just describing why it wouldn't make any sense if the same man put together that 2013 trailer and the subsequent ones.I mean at the end of the day the final result is what important.

O yea I agree. Although the uncovered trailer had a e3'13 feel to it.Oh for sure. If the game is better, I'd muuuch rather have that. Just describing why it wouldn't make any sense if the same man put together that 2013 trailer and the subsequent ones.

Which uncovered trailer are we talking? The one thing I miss from the Nomura era trailers are the cryptic bs Latin or whatever phrases. The ambiguity kept me interested
