Perhaps they did tone it down, but in E3 2013 trailer, there still were blood oozing out of behemoth.

It's similar to the hi-res tone from last year. They likely lightened it to match with current fashion trends.
(Though blonde seems to be on its way out again)
When the game was first announced Nomura said he wanted to make this the darkest FF yet.
The first time they ever showed gameplay footage they showed Noctis fighting a behemot and when Noctis slashed it it would spurt blood. However, once they show the 2011 trailer there was no more blood.
I don't think any tone or themes have changed drastically but I do think blood coming out of enemies have been scrapped especially since it's now a mainline series.
Edit: Oh wow never noticed the blood in the e3 trailer.

Same here. I think they still will, and I personally still want some godlike Visual Works CG in there as a "reward" at spots like you said.

My biggest concern if the main character is likable or not. I don't want a character that whines the entire game or complains.

His character is said to be cocky and outgoing with friends. Quite and awkward around not his friends.

DQVIII would be a good solution.

Didn't Lost Odyssey or Blue Dragon do this as well? Seem to recall seeing similar videos for either of the game.
They don't have to let us land everywhere if they don't want to build a zone for every part of the map but could still hide spots where you can land for secrets.

That could work too, I've had similar thoughts. The airship could also soar into the sky - in a mid cloud/ground area with less LOD where the ground beneath you is partially covered by clouds, enabling the engine to render more seamlessly and maybe bypassing the zones with you navigating with a map on the side (kind of like the map we saw in the E3 trailer when Noct teleported to one of the airships). That in and of itself could be interesting, having layers of clouds to fly through... But I'm guessing that'd be too time consuming to create (and I simply can't wait anymore). Maybe what I'm suggesting is simply too expensive and I doubt Square wants to dump anymore resources into this... Let's just wait it out, maybe they'll surprise us with a better solution!
from what I heard he's basically a stuck up little shit character wise
I feel he will be ironically likable because of it

Why are strippers at the U.N. bad when they're great at strip clubs???
I think I've watched the trailer over 50 times ;.;
I keep thinking to myself nope this can't be real, a Final Fantasy XV trailer, must watch again ahahha

Did you like this trailer or the E3 trailer better? I cant decide.
Can you at least say what kind of work Shimomura is doing ? Are there really big production values for this particular OST ?
ಠ_ಠ
lol, hope not.
"Noctis, did you order the pizza?"
"....It's been a long time coming....almost there..."
-_-
nice.
You worked with hamauzu right ? The production values were always so phenomenal but he usually used synthetic sounds.
Shimomura tends to use a lot of real instruments so its really exciting to know about the quality of the recordings.
Can you confirm that the soundtrack is long at least ?
The translation is awful. He's just saying sorry for making someone (he he) wait.

I'm a sucker for Visual Works CG scenes; nevertheless, the progression we've seen so far, from the E3 build to its current developments, is a sight to behold. As such, the TGS trailer would be my personal favorite
You?
I agree that the two composers have signature sounds that people associate with but it also highly depends on what the music is for. This is by Hamauzu for example http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AB3ZNTfJNmc
I really, really can't say anything more about Square Enix stuff for now. Believe me you have no idea how hard it is lol.
Oh yeah I tend to think of his super clean piano pieces as well.Very sharp and clean for lack of a better descriptor on my part lol
Don't say more.Don't want to get you into trouble.
From Type-0 livestream:
Duscae is a toponym, there's an area in the game world.
Demo length is about 1 hour, but players might play for about 3 hours.
There's gonna be a bit of overworld and a dungeon.
Car's in! Chocobos might also be.
No boss battles, because they're a big deal in the game.
Trying to make distribution date to be the same as Type 0 HD release date.
Ignis was driving in the trailer but you can do it yourself, or you can leave it on auto, so Noctis' friends will drive it for you.
See that Adamantoise? You can fight him.
But it will take a long while.
They're showing the demo.
Rain effects and thing. Detailed to the point where places under objects don't get wet and when it's sunny it dries up as you go.
Tech demo they're showing doesn't seem to be Duscae, instead it's the place from E3 2013 trailer where they fought Behemoth.
There is a realistic dynamic day-night cycle complete with lighting thing Ubi was flaunting so much with Watch Dogs.
SWORD WARP IS GAMEPLAY
I REPEAT IT'S WORKING GAMEPLAY
It's much snappier than in the trailer.
Fought Behemoth and a bunch of goblins. Party members attacked enemies on their own.
Visual details aren't completely fine-tuned yet.
Fire spell animation seemed to be based on the shape of the enemy.

Perhaps it speeds up as you level?
That's what I assume.

Looks awesome but the combat feels so slow to me.

Well that looked pretty neat. Were the "teamwork" scenes QTEs or just like random and naturally occurring?
Yeah... =( Had to sign up with Facebook, so I couldn't watch it fully
Framerate seems like it needs improvement, but otherwise looks really good.
