And this is probably for the best. SE went all out on graphics for XIII and we all know how terrible the game turns out.

We've seen KH3 already. Are you that impressed?
RaD got help from Santa Monica and they've been working on the assets for a long time.
We saw a clearly early work in progress build that Nomura said didnt represent the final product. What exactly are you suggesting?
I think he's saying, don't expect anything ground-breaking.

I thought that was Kingdom Hearts 3 for a second 
I'm suggesting that Santa Monica and RaD are eons beyond SE graphically. You're kidding yourself if you think just because RaD did great, that KH3 will be some paragon for graphical achievement.

This, pretty much. I couldn't give less of a shit how it compares to The Order graphically. It'll likely look as good as it needs to.

They said something about using a different shading effect for each world to match the art style, can´t wait to see this.
I didn't say anything about that, i implied it would look really good though. I don't see what your shaking your head about that assertion for. Do you think they(Osaka team) can't make games that look a lot better than PSP?
Yeah, I think western studios are just miles ahead in terms of workflow efficiency and graphics (not necessarily in the art/aesthetics department, but on a pure technical level), nowadays, with all the experience from the last gen. Visual Works on the other hand is crazy good, when it comes to CGI stuff. If they could convert their assets directly for SE's game engine (like Luminous was supposed to do if it even exists in that form anymore) it would be great.
How do you mean!? I do think Uncharted 4 looks really amazing..but I was just saying that its obvious tumultuous cycle meant that the assets for 15 were probably gonna be all over the place over 10 years evolution, although they'd try to fix them up as much as they could.
I really hope they don't reuse the CGI they've been showing for years into FF15, that's like the very definition of crudely gluing things together
Well, pretty sure some of that stuff from 2011 is still in.
It's not even remotely close to the cg in kh1 yet
So there's plenty of room for improvement
Well, that intro CGI scene with Noctis in the car is still absolutly beautiful, even today.
They really can't put in anything from 2009 or before though. The characters had different designs then.

So Kagari, FFXV in this TGS, yay or nay?
Who am I kidding, it's a nay, isn't it.
Who am I kidding, it's a nay, isn't it.
That's been my point exactly these past few posts. Having an entire game look like the CG works is probably going to be the uncanny valley of JRPGs. It's almost the difference between 2D and 3D Disney feature films in terms of aesthetics.
Or maybe I'm just an old fart.

Only 578 years more to go. Hype train, lets go!
It's true though. People reaching for every tiny thing they can at this point and it's SE's fault.

I'm being reborn in 2590 so this is perfect. Adjust those cryo-time clocks people! They'll let me out a little early so that I can play the NoctisOrgy.

I'm really trying to keep expectations low for TGS, but I just can't help getting excited now that it's so close. I really want XV to be there, but I've grown so cynical when it comes to this game that I just can't see it happening.
Some Type-0 HD news maybe? That could happen, right?

I think Type-0 is likely cause this is it´s first and last TGS before it´s release.
Hey guys... uh... here's this game you all played 3 years ago!
They should show everyone a trailer with only an additional 15 seconds of new footage. Reverse a lot of the existing shots, maybe add some filters, change some clothes. Turn blue to yellow, turn green to grey, turn white to black. You know, to help add to the mystique.
At this point, FFXV fans have become used to surviving on only the tiniest piece of information that I can see a variety of discussion forming from that:
What does the reversal of camera mean? Is it something to do with time maybe?
Why did blue turn to yellow which turned to grey which turned to black?
A theory of colours and what they mean in Final Fantasy.
Is FFXV a game of paradoxes?
Do you think FFXV is set on Earth in the future?
That way, someone can think to themselves, 'I'm looking after our fans.'

Can't blame fans for seeing mirages at this point. They were the ones who put us into deserts

To be fair, MGSV has something to show but it was pushed to actual TGS exhibition too.

They're not even doing that. Keep the drip feed on atleast. How hard is to release a couple of screenshots every 3 months? =/
They went from, 'We'll keep you updated' to 'Nah, fuck those guys.' Someone should go throw a chair through SE's office window.
Is this what you're saying, but in a polite manner as possible so as to not betray your true feelings? Because I'm reading between the lines and that's what it sounds like.
That's fine. Atleast its somewhat recent. Anything before that is just looking like completely different designs of the characters at this point, and you can tell CG at Visual Works has evolved a lot since the first trailer came out

If FFXIII was anything to go by, SE is probably willing to excuse some minor differences just to push the games out. FFXIII started with a wonderful CG that had a lot more details on Lightning's face. By the time we get nearer to the midway point, her face has become flawless like the ones in XII's CGI. I guess if they wanted to save time and money, I won't be surprised to see some compromise in the CGI in XV.

Someone should do more than throw a chair >_>
No windows in the room/vault where XV is kept. Right alongside Nomura and Ito in chains.
Oh there's a fair few windows. One could use multiple chairs. Going to be a bit hard from the outside though. You'd have to go in and throw the chair outwards, then tell them in dramatic fashion, 'Look at what you made me do. Look at what you made me give.'

You think too kindly of SE. Ito is probably in some separate dungeon of his own. Why do you think Kitase gave out a loud laugh when an interviewer asked him about Ito (Jason from Kotaku?)? It was an evil laugh.

The trailer for p5 was more than enough I doubt we will see gameplay besides they have to give that p4 dancing game a release date ;P expect type-0 at TGS
This would require a level of planning (so more than a month in the future) that I'm not sure SE is capable of.
