who fucking knows??
IT'S metrosexual
nobody is defined anymore
that's exactly what japanese young generations want
an androginus style
that country is going to shit

kaos

its like the village!

"oh my gawd"

I can't say anything really looked too thrilling, but it looks okay. I'll definitely buy it, once it's released and comes to the U.S.

Eh, its just a trailer. It will still sell over 2 million copies just because it has FINAL FANTASY printed on the box. The name sells the game, it said really.

Looks pretty cool to me.

You see those bars at the bottom right hand side of the screen during gameplay? Yeah, those things have been there forever. The "old-style" never changed, you still play the series the same way you always have. They always have to change some things (the ways to use magic, summons, how to power-up, etc, etc) or else it'd get too stale, but the fundamentals haven't changed in years and years.

You know who Yoshitaka Amano is? He's the guy who pretty much designed the entire freaking world and distinctive look of Final Fantasy, and it's only since Final Fantasy VII have we been able to see what it should have looked like all along. He always draws his males like androgynous warriors. His illustrations for Cecil look like a white haired woman. Final Fantasy has ALWAYS looked like this, it's just that now, in the newer era of systems, we can really see it for the first time.

Are we the ones complaining about a series that we've never played yet. Every single game in the series is, at least, very good. Most are great. This one will be no different.

enm dude
you're completely wrong
I DO know Amano
I've always loved him
He finished working on FF series since the 6th episode
then Tetsuya Nomura took his place
He just re-apperead with 9th, but just for illustrations

check it out
here where I usually take my sigs

I dont agree
FFIX was like an experiment, trying to get old-style
but excluding the menu/battle system, I didnt like anything of it

and FFX is just a joke
with the most IRRITATING set of carachters ever
and with dialogues above all......a SHAME

You're longing for the old days. This is the old days. Again, look at the profiles of the characters. The all look "metrosexual" and rail thin. They all look like they could be males or females. As you said "faggots, anorexic bitches". You're describing Amano's style!

He did illustrations for VII and VIII, too.

Don't look too far Kaos :

Q: We previously heard from Matsuno that Ashe was modeled on a Frenchwoman's bone structure.

Yoshida: The base of her bone structure is a French person's. We were given orders from the start to not make her look like an Asian. But we modified her a bit to look more like a Japanese for the sake of the Japanese audience, and also since a character that looks completely French makes some of the CG expressions difficult.

(from interview with Gamespot) )

You really must allergic to us (the french)

well I tell you that metrosexual is a thing, androginus another

I still dont agree
his FF7 and FF8 and 10 illustrations are completely different from the real carachters in the games
He basically made'em nicer to see
have you checked the site I gave you?

He couldn't ever made any useless/anonymous carachters such as Tidus and Yuna just as example

anyway
I dont mind the illustrations
but I like the game play with sd carachters with some real proportions FMV as for PSX games..(FF7, Xenogears, ect...)

yeah...I knew it
that's another reason why I said..fuck it
but you know japanese culture has always been lot impressed by french style..wine, food, fashion....

You really must allergic to us (the french)

sorry to sound harsh sometimes
but yeah....I always had problems with frenchies
I've dealt more than 1 time with their arrogance/racism/stupidity..
I hate to generalise though
and you seem quite a cool guy

As far as looks goes, this game impresses me. The thing is, FFX looked impressive too, but it was hardly what I'd call a game. It "played" more along the lines of a slightly interactive movie. If the "gameplay" is similar to FFX, they can keep this shit.

It was like I bought a lame ass sports game called blitzball and it came with a final fantasy movie.

Wow that trailer looks really cool, I like the look of this game, reminds me of Vagrants Story.

I don't understand how people can lose 100 hours of gameplay (literally) in 5 hours of cinematics... but they do!

Anyways, I say 'meh' the the trailer because there's really no new footage! Maybe it's better this way. I'm no longer surprised by games most of the time - if I could avoid everything but the most superficial information about these games (as I did years ago when my only source of info was EGM), I might enjoy these newer games more...

You owe your life to France. Hooray to the U.S.A., and all, but French culture is to be respected.

Anyways, the game looks marvelous and it will please the fanbase. I'm always impressed with what Square has done graphically. Like Force said about the whole 'game' issue is something I jive with. Astonoshing production values aside, I'm sure the game will be great, but it's not something I would enjoy. I've tried 8, 9, 10, x2, and they did not do anything for me. But, boy o biy, were they pritt-tey.

That's cuz it's the same artist... Akihiko Yoshida... *cough* FFT *cough* Ogre Battle *cough* and, of course, Vagrant Story...

So far I like it ten times better than FFVII: Advent Children...

What gameplay? I beat the game in about 50 hours, and while I didn't do the sidequests, I felt more like I had watched more than I played. The stupid "game" even has fucking arrows telling you where to go. How lame is this? SO what do you consider gameplay? Hitting the X key to advance through easy battles and scroll through text boxes? Because unless you do all the pointless side quests, that's about all there is to this "game"

Matt

kool yeah your right he did do tactics uhmm which ogre battle game did he do?

what a pile of bullshit
you OBVIOUSLY dont know shit of RPGs
that's my life and I've played every single game so far

why the fuck you bothered enter this thread I just dont know

A) Sidequests take up like 50 hours. If you have a guide. No, I'm not kidding. Even if you skip Blitzball. 1/2 of the Sidequests basically explain the "mysteries" involving the story. The other 1/2 are for power-players. All the challenge one could ask for...

B) You can turn off the arrows. It's easy.

C) The main quest is pretty manageable without incessant "leveling up". There are sticking points, but decent battle strategy will get you through most of them. From where I stand, strategy > leveling.

D) Worst case, you "press x" as much as any other RPG on the planet. In reality, you need to switch characters to exploit weaknesses.

Not trying to be a dick, but usually people who make these posts have no perspective. I'm more than happy to discuss why this game plays better than RPG X or Y (it's hard to find people who want to discuss gameplay these days...), but you'll have to forgive me - when I see a post with something so general that it can be applied to any game in the genre, I just blow it off as bitching.

So lets talk RPGs!

I hate SD!

It looks ok but like alot of people I'll buy it cause of the name. I was a little disapointed in the trailer and to be honest I haven't enjoyed a FF game since 9. 10 sucked 10-2 sucked 11 can't play don't play online games but it's probably ok. I really hope it's good though I don't want to see the FF series suck ever again. And About the characters I don't really care as long as the story draws me in like the old games.

here's my worthless opinion:

i never liked ff at all until final fantasy 7.
final fantasy 7 was the closest the series EVER got to being cyberpunk...in fact, it might just qualify as such. that's what i love...thats what i love the most.

ff7 was my favorite game of all time, and probly always will be. i just cant express the emotions i invested into this game...or those i got in return.

now...while its true the art from which the games are based has always been "androgynous"---i can definitely see where kaos is coming from.

these newer games just arent his cup of tea, just like they're not mine.

final fantasy 8 was good enough for me because it was pseudo futuristic; 9 was cool because while the characters were more fantastic, the world [as in the previous games] was varied.

FF10? the entire game sucked so much shit out of my ass i called it OREK. what a HORRIBE LOOKING game! seriously, the world was NOT VARIED AT ALL---every locale was the same! it was such a borefest. sure, you can argue that in fact, the locales varied only as much as they would in a "real" world...but I don't play these games to be transported to a REALISTIC world. i play them to be transported to a DYSTOPIC WORLD, ON THE BRINK OF COLLAPSE.

or, a FUTURISTIC WORLD WITH A MOST PAST LITTERED WITH MAGIC AND A LANDSCAPE LITTERED WITH BIZARRE MONOLITHS.

Not this FF10, FF12 garbage.

what a weak rant, i know. its pretty watery, but thats ok. its just me rambling.

ff10-12 = super faggot #1.
