God I hate Ken so much.
The game is over 60% complete at this point and they are in mass content creation phase. It's not "way early in development"From all the comments Tabata has been doing since the re-re-re-reveal it seems the game is still way early in development. I'm seeing a late 2016 release. In Japan.

Tabata mentioned that monsters in dungeons tended to be nastier and use status effects, yes.
Get good though.God I hate Ken so much.
He is just speculating, there's absolutely zero info on release date.If the game is over 60% finished, wouldn't it be early 2016? At least for Japan?
Combat-wise, the plan is holding down a button will start a set combo, but timed button presses are what will enable coordinated moves with other party members.
To parry enemy attacks, you have to match the timing of their strike. This is intended for expert players.
Yep.
Why don't they just make an option for button pressing and button holding?
Isn't that what XIII did?
No idea, havent played them
Rare footage of Noctis actually angry.
Oh my.. You mean like in a rpg!
Hotels, mini games, chocobos. It actually sounds like a Final Fantasy game.
I'm not purely speculating. Tabata said they were well past the 50% point around TGS and they haven't been twiddling their thumbs after that so it's probably advanced noticeably since then due to them being in the crank-out-assets/content-as-fast-as-possible phase already. Though yes, Tabata also pointed out that it's somewhat hard to quantify how far along in development they are (a game could technically be 100% complete but then be delayed and worked on more if they feel like it, for a lot of reasons), but he still said they were showing a game that was around 55% complete at TGS, so unless they scrapped stuff, they are presumably further along in development 3 months later.Get good though.

It'll actually come out in March, they've been advertising it as a demo with Type-0, but they will troll us yet again and that demo will turn out to be the full game.
And then we will see people coming here and complaining about how SE lied and didn't give them a demo.
Glad I pre-ordered Type-0 then :3 . XV is gonna be my game of the forever.

I was talking about Kain mentioning a late 2016 release... But sure.I'm not purely speculating.

Man, FF ruined my usage of Ethers, I can't even use them in games that sell them in stores, because I feel like they are so special =XWhile the trailer didn't do much for me these details are getting me excited again! Especially with his comment about Magic not consuming MP. Hopefully it means I can go trigger happy with magic, something I always wanted to do in FF (I'm that person who never uses ethers and save them till I really need them - as in never)
Interesting definition of Final Fantasy there . Aside from chocobos, mini games never really appeared significantly in FF games until 7 and hotels are cool but FF like?
If it works for you though, more power to you.
Whether you button mash or hold down a button really makes zero difference for the standard triple combo. Both take zero skill or thought. No effect on my hype, which is fairly high!

I do hope they let us use a lot of magic too.
Still can't tell if the aim for combat is to be similar to Type-0's combat (with kill-sight, i.e. hitting a button or attacking at an exact specific time) or not.
There will be several mini-games, including fishing.
In town, you can stay in hotels or go shopping.
NPCs in town are controlled by AI, and you can talk to them.
Cindy shows up in different places throughout the game. Something happens with her at the start that shakes her up and gets her moving around.
