Ew
now I have a smidge of reason to get hype0
Baby steps
Let's see it beating xii and ffxiii first
It's really weird that Square has been using that as a PR point (and it was so obviously a PR point -- as Tabata kept repeating that, I just knew it'd make for headlines on a lot of sites). FFX was filled with death and despair, FFXII was like Game of Thrones lite, FFVI had a goddamned, etc. Even FFXIII dealt with "mature" themes. I think the last Final Fantasy game that wasn't "mature" was maybe FFV?suicide
I think tabata, when he says 'mature' is actually talking about M rated stuff like blood and war type shit where tons of kids and shit die. Yeah you could have some dark aspects in previous final fantasies, but let's be real, FF10 for example was still rated T, and Sin's rampages weren't exactly shown so much as implied most of the time, people still disappeared in little sparkly lights.
Type 0 seems to be more about an actual battlefield with magic. It was the same feeling i got from Versus when he broke that dude's neck with his legs or shoved the sword through that guy so hard blood and gore came out the back.
That stuff is probably not still in the game because they are gonna go mainstream with 15, but that's the feeling i got, like it could really be the first "M rated" final fantasy.
let me play devil's advocate for a moment let's say the game is actually good, do you think that FFXV not being turn based will make the game frowned upon? I have a feeling people will regardless bash the game even if its good, because it deviated to much from what people consider final fantasy to be.
personally would like to see a gym with weight lifting facilities in FFXV
with the help of some steroids i can work on transforming my party from this
to this
maybe add a hair salon too and let you give the boys buzz cuts.
Brooooo, sick idea. Now I can #swag ingame and irl for maximum gains, gimmie a fedora option Square, legit!
FFXIII was turn based and that didn't help it in the eyes of fans. FFXII received much praise for it's battle system at release despite heavily deviating from the norm. I think people will be happy with a good game regardless of turn based or not. I mean we have known it wasn't turn based since the reveal and that hasn't stopped the hype one bit.
We still don't really know how it's gonna work either. There seem to be indications, based on video, that your party members jump in at times with support attacks or something, so it may not be 100% action RPG button masher.
I think the alternative view here is that people might be tired of turn-based and welcome some innovation to the Final Fantasy series.let me play devil's advocate for a moment let's say the game is actually good, do you think that FFXV not being turn based will make the game frowned upon?

Note: I love turn-based, but would also love to see something different just to see what SE can do.
Noctis has a weak bench press but his squats are killer
How the hell did you do thatSo for later tonight:
What do you guys think will happen first? Will Naughty Dog launch their 5th (FIFTH!) triple A game for a Playstation home console before Square releases FFXV or will they launch it before Uncharted 4? I'm willing to be the former is more likely.
Uncharted 1 was the first ND game released after Square's FFVersus XIII announcement. What do you think?

It's probably all to tide us over until that 2016 release date.
I want to believe.

Not to defend Square Enix, but if you think of Versus and FFXV as totally separate games -- with Versus cancelled and replaced in 2012 by a game that essentially started from scratch -- it's a lot easier to have faith that XV could be really rad.
true bro, but remember one key aspect is that Versus was originally a spin-off that got forced into being a mainline FF. While it retained stuff from other FF games such as the chocobos, world map, towns (hopefully they're still in) but at the same time i believe nomura said would deviate completely from FF hence the battle system. Personally i don't mind it being Action Rpg but i just wanted to know what people felt on the matter =]
He don't skip leg day, confirmed?

Stella original design is now eternally embedded in our memory thanks to Kagari's avatar. It won't be forgotten, ever.But that would mean having to let go of Stella's original design.

Nomura, being as secretive as he is, is unlikely to pen a postmortem of any kind, I think.That game's postmortem is going to be a goooood read.
Never forget.
1 - You'll be able to see it in action - This really makes me think it's gonna be just a movie that you have no control over.
2 - Some will be able to get it free with Agito - Wait, we're supposed to pay for that "demo", SE you keep learning from the wrong guys.
Link pleaseThere's a 25 min video of Type-0 HD on IGN Portugal. It's an off-screen footage but the question is, were we supposed to see that already or IGN Portugal jumped the gun?
Sooooo better than the current one. Ya done goofed Square.
