Isn't posting scans forbidden on GAF? Or am I missing something?

 

[wmlk]

We can only post scans of Iris.

 

[Koozek]

It's a matter of taste but I really like both designs, gives me a sephiroth vibe. koozek seems like you prefer the westernized designs of kingsglaive huh? ;P

Spoiler

I'M NOT RACIST BUT

They really hit the right spot for me, yeah. It's almost perfect, imo, and how I would love future mainline FFs to look like. But I admit, some of the less important characters do look a bit too generic, but I guess they are supposed to be more like "NPC"s with the main characters having more distinct designs. Nyx is already one of my absolute favorite FF designs ever.

Based Nozue.

There is a reason for this, TBH he look likes the perfect match to rival Noctis.

Would've liked a villain that's less on the nose. Sephiroth 2.0 is too predictable. I actually thought Caius in FFXIII-2 was pretty refreshing.

Those in my post are from today's direct-feed screens of last week's scans.

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

So Iris is a Nomura design going by the scan.

Caius looks a lot more like a cliche villain than Ravus.

Spoiler

I hated Caius' design. And I hated him as a villain overall.

Ah okay, everything fine then.

Personally I prefer game Ravus over the movie version, simply because I think he looks less like Jamie Lannister (I just started watching GoT).
And to me he seems more interesting, less generic. I think it's the shape of his face.
For Luna I interestingly prefer the movie version, though.

Okay, I take that back a bit now that I think about it, though he doesn't look as obviously grim and evil as Ravus. What I actually meant was his personality that wasn't as clear black and white when you knew his background story, which actually had something strangely... sad and melancholic to it almost (one of the few moments that felt even remotely sincere or touching in the FFXIII-saga, imo). Now the comparison of their personality is not fair, of course, as long as we haven't played FFXV, so I'll stop and wait.

 

[Kagari]

Nah. Way too obviously villain-y, almost comically so. Movie Ravus looks slicker and cooler.

Why didn't they match every FFXV character with the Kingsglaive design

Don't post scans... you guys know better.

 

[Ray Down]

So Iris is a Nomura design going by the scan.

The full scan just has this:

Main Character designs by Tetsuya Nomura.

Most likely designed by Roberto Ferrari

Word?

Huh, thought they were from the Famitsu site. Don't they often upload direct-feed screens of past issues? If not, sorry!

 

[Kagari]

No and if they do it's usually super small in size.

 

[silva1991]

So they've removed his hood?

Huh? what white haired guy is supposed to be the hooded guy?

 

[chozen]

Don't post scans... you guys know better.

I- I didn't know.

 

[Ray Down]

Huh? what white haired guy is supposed to be the hooded guy?

Yes from the sounds of it.

Word?

I don't know what you mean by this.....

I'm guessing the Roberto part since I think he's credit for creating many side characters in this game if I'm remembering correctly.

The full scan only has Nomura as Main character designer at the bottom.

 

[NoctisVsStar]

Huh? what white haired guy is supposed to be the hooded guy?

Yeah, he got the same outfit it's just the first time we see him without the hood covering his face.

Ahh I see, I always thought Nomura and Roberto sort of did the characters together.

 

[NHarmonic.]

No wonder SE was such a mess. They even say here that they thought they suck. A studio from mostly Polish background has better "know how" than Japan developers which were making games since 80s. Crazy.

That level of clueless-ness in a company like square enix is hard to believe.
