Looks good, might import.

They did it for the CG cutscenes in the PSX remakes, right?

Don't get me wrong, this game looks great and I can't wait for it. I just wish Square would stop straying (at least visually) so far from the series' origins. Especially if you're remaking one of the earliest ones.

EDIT: friggin nevermind, I just saw Yoshida credited at the bottom. He's a good kid (Vagrant Story his best work)

I was about to stab you until you made your edit. Good thing you did!

They're straying visually because it's such a complete remake and because Akihiko Yoshida is the best video game artist of all time. The end.

It's the same job but different characters. You didn't think that every character would look the same in the same job did you?

It does in FFT >_<

The CG trailer from those scans is up at the Final Fantasy III site for those that haven't seen it yet.

The unique characters looked different, though. But they tended to just change colors of their uniforms rather than getting entirely new looks, too.

Aye, it's the FFV style, not the FFT style. Of course, if you play FFII through V, you can see plain as day the resemblance between II and IV, as well as III and V. Pretty sure they had two different development teams even back then.

Yeah, that's the old even/odd thing people used to talk about. Doesn't seem like alternating teams, though. Here are a few credit comparisons, though not always are the same titles given from title to title, so it's not always possible to see who's taking over certain roles.

Director
II, III, IV, V: Hironobu Sakaguchi

Character Designer
II, III, IV, V: Yoshitaka Amano

Music
II, III, IV, V Nobuo Uematsu

Producer
II, III, IV: Masafumi Miyamoto (Executive Producer in IV)

Scenario
II, III: Kenji Terada

Game Design
II: Hiromichi Tanaka, Akitoshi Kawazu, Koichi Ishii
III: Hiromichi Tanaka, Kazuhiko Aoki
IV: Takashi Tokita

Battle Program
III, IV, V: Kiyoshi Yoshii, Katsuhisa Higuchi

Mostly it just seems that if a person wasn't involved in the same role from one to another, there was no pattern about it.

Just watched the trailer. Oh My God, BEST ART STYLE EVER. Both the CG artstyle (the original one I guess) and the in-game arstyle (the new one?) look awesome. I loved the music too. Anticipation +1000
