This game has taken 3 years to develop. Not ten.
Why do people ignore this?
>>319373057
Because it flies against their shitposting ammunition.
>>319373057
By that logic The Last Guardian started development last year.
>>319373323
Last guardian was slightly being worked on in pa3 era. Versus 13 wasnt. They had story outlines, cg trailers and one room where they showed a general gameplay concept.
It just wasnt being worked on at all. People act like this is the culmination of a decade of effort, when really its just 7 years of fucking around and mismanagement and 3 of actual programming and development.
Itd have been at more e3s if it were actually being touched.
>>319373057
I dunno. Why are people okay with FF7:R being released episodically for 3-4x the price over 3-4 years instead of getting one complete game at the end of it?
>>319373578
They're not okay with it.
>>319373057
wow the hair looks like shit
what happened?
>>319373984
It's an xbone screenshot upscaled from 720p or some shit.
>>319373560
>when really its just 7 years of fucking around and mismanagement
It was because FFXIV?
Who the fuck designed that character? Looks 2 edgy.
>>319373984
Xbone version is 720p upscaled to 1080p
>>319373057
Except you're wrong? It's been about 9 years. They even changed the name from FXIII Versus to FXIV. They've been at it all these years, and it just goes to prove how shit Square Enix is.
>>319373578
I'm on the fence. If this means we'll get, say. Midgar-Junon in a single episode, it lasts a good 20 hours, and it costs about $30, they can jew me to death for all I care. FFVII is a game I'll take it up the ass for if it ensures they don't cut corners and circumcise it for timing and budget reasons.
>>319373057
Development starts at conception, so no, it took 10 years.
>>319373057
Wow this looks worse than Fallout 4
>>319377593
kek 2bh
>>319373323
>Development Hell =/= Actual work being done...
>>319373057
This looks like a shitty greenlight rpg, what the fuck?
>>319379303
>>319377593
Hello, PCshits.
>>319373578
>for 3-4x the price
Even Ground Zeroes wasn't 60 bucks.
In fact, I can't think of a single multi-part (which is the words Square used, not episodic) game that goes for full price for each piece, aside from the ones where every piece is a full game.
>>319379247
>>319379303
it doesnt tho
>>319379960
What's going on with Gladiolus in this screenshot
>>319373578
oh they announced the pricing structure huh pls do tell do tell
>>319380058
he slipped on a bananna
Noctis was designed 9 years ago
>>319373560
>when really its just 7 years of fucking around and mismanagement and 3 of actual programming and development.
Thanks for this wada, hope you fucking rot in your cell phone company shithole
>>319379601
>>319379960
>>319380179
I hope these are all Xbone screenshots because if this is native 1080p on the PS4 it's still one of the most blurry games I've ever seen.
>>319375443
Looks are decieving, i worried for 7 years that noctis was gonna be some edgelord, then play the demo only to find out noctis is cheeky as fuck and kind of lazy.
Personality wise hes basically a lazier zidaine.
>>319373057
Because people also believe that FO4 was in development for more than a year.
>>319381125
It's nto that blurry I don't think =/
These are PS4 screens but they get downgraded I believe when you save them
>>319381125
the demo was a super unfinished build of the game that was outdated even by the standards of the current build they had in development
I respect that they put their game out there and that for a literal unfinished demo it was still fun, but i think it was also kind of retarded to release anything of the game in such an unfinished state expecially in regards to the frame rate and blurriness
>>319381125
If it's PS4, then it's 1600x900 upscaled to 1080. Final game is supposed to be 1080
>>319375443
>>319381173
He's also super fucking badass. He's kinda like Link in that he's a jack of all trades, potential master of ALL. Just look at the Versus trailer.
>>319381125
Demo was on Luminous 1.5, and was 900p on PS4. Luminous 2 will run 1080p on PS4.
2nd Demo soon. New gameplay in 10 days
They've been working on it since 2006 at least.
>>319373057
>>319379247

>>319379601

>>319381341
Fuck me--when? 2016 could be anything from a few weeks to an entire year. I can't take this fucking shit. Just gib me game.
>>319381531
will the demo be free?
>>319381597
Square generally releases games 4 months after announcing a set release date. getting the game in march so do the math from there.
I just hope the game isnt rushed to fit release, it really seems they were dead set on this release date from the very begging of the games actual development cycle in 2012. I dont know that shit about controllable airhsips or other things possibly being post release (free) dlc is just worrying.
>>319381531
>>319381684
Oh sheeeeit, this is the public one? Fuck my life is about to be amazing
>>319381684
Probably, who the fuck knows, chances are the demo is just gonna be a debug mode to fuck around with the combat but not in a gimped form like the original demo was. I just wanna know how magic fucking works already.
>>319373057
Because it factually and objectively started being worked on 10 years ago
>>319381684
Yea
>>319381813
>>319381684
2nd demo will be a public demo, and will include the final combat system and finalized shit.
Tabata and co will be at Comic Fiesta in 11 days
>>319373057
This game looks like boring, unimaginitive shit. Not Final Fantasy (pre-Nomura.)
Why would anyone ignore this?
big empty world emptrier than FF12 and action combat...
this is what Final Fantasy became... from the great story rich turn based RPGs that challenged your wits and your determination.
To this abomination...
>>319381990
Is comic fiesta a japanese event?
I wasn't hyped till I played the demo, really like how it played and looked (still hoping for it to come to PC for even better visuals and frame rates) I just don't like the characters. It's like a fucking k pop band fighting monsters and shit while driving and audi around for the fun of it.
>>319381949
It was a concept and on hold from 2006-2012 with only people doing things during their spare time, only got a full budget, 200 member dev team and started full development in mid 2012
No one includes earthbound 64 dev time into mother 3s development for the same reason, otherwise you'd be saying mother 3 was in development for over 10 years
Try 4-5.
And yet we can't get a proper 7 remake in that time.
>XV sequels cut with no explaination given
>7R gietting sequels
>Cloud moving through tight spaces in the trailer just like Noctis did
>big blue warp2enemy attack during gameplay
7R totally isn't just those intended XV sequels reskinned on a shittier engine to shit them out faster.
Poor form SE.
>>319382130
It's less empty than any other FF and it is as story focused as any other FF is
>>319381813
I am completely hype 2bh
>>319382130
Come the fuck on, are you seriously implying that any mainline Final Fantasy had challenging gameplay of any kind beyond brute forcing your way with better stats? God, you fags are pathetic.
You know whats odd, we have gottne barely any trailers of this game, like real damn trailers and not just info drips or small little play demos.
Like we got the E3 reveal trailer, that jump festa trailer last year, and technically that dawn trailer but it was fucking nothing so i dont count that
I think we deserve to have at least one new story trailer of some sorts, cause i think thats why my hyped slowly faded, not cause the game looks worse frankly i think it looks fun as fuck and enjoyed the demo even when it was like 40% of the games actual combat, i fell out of hype cause we just know so little about where the story is gonna go, hell it want till a couple months ago we even learned about who luna is or how the world is slowly being enveloped in eternal night.

Mother 3 was in development for 9 years.
>>319382291
>Final Fantasy XV began development in 2006, and was announced as an exclusive title for the PlayStation 3 (PS3) video game console under the title Final Fantasy Versus XIII.
>>319382130
You best be joking about challenging your wits, turn based can be good but none of the older final fantasies had good combat, the irony is that as much shit as FFXIII got for its autobattle it still was less braindead than the odler combat systems where you could just spam attacks with an occasional heal and beat every fight.
Graphics look like early ps3.
>>319382430
production is not development and any retard can edit wikipedia
>>319382130
>challenged your wits
Now this is a nostalgiafag. None of the games are challenging
>your determination.
And only 3 really comes close with it's final dungeon
>>319382170
Malaysia I think
Wan Hazmer and Tabata are going to do a presentation there instead of jump festa, it takes place the same exact time as jump festa too, last year Hazmer did a presentation there too which was an English version of the Japanese presentation Tabata did at jump festa last year
This year looks like they are doing the presentation first and only at comic fiesta
>>319382509
>The development of Final Fantasy XV, a Japanese action role-playing video game, began in 2006 shortly before its announcement at that year's Electronic Entertainment Expo. Square Enix is handling primary development on Final Fantasy XV, and is set for release in 2016: the total development time covers approximately ten years.
>>319382430
>>319382509
Weren't they basically having a skeleton crew working on the game while they were trying to salvage FF 14?
>>319382548
>And only 3 really comes close with it's final dungeon
Id say 2 does too, holy fucking hell pandemonium is a literal hell to get through, its nothing but false doors that lead to high spawn areas, hell at one point you need to go through a hidden passage in the wall to get to a higher floor. Its the single most painful dungeon in the franchise. Maybe i didnt hate 13 too much cause 2 was the game i played before it, that and 13 was just kind of ok, kind of overhypedon the negativity, had a much worse time with 2 and 8
>>319382509
Development is development no matter how many people were working on it.
>>319382597
Announcement and full development are not the same fucking thing and you know it
It was not in active full development until mid 2012
>>319382597
>still citing random sources when we have already been told by the developers than xv hadn't begun production until 2012
also versus was never anything but a shelved concept until it was made into a mainline entry
>>319382597
Technically yes FFXV has been in development this whole time, but that is a very VERY loose term as it was confirmed that for the first 2 years only the CGi branch had done anything with it and when actual development "started" it was made with quite literally 2 people.
FFXV was the start of the game's real development as in, actually having any hope of existing.
>>319382784
production is not development
please kill yourself as soon as possible
>>319382854
>>319382485
Said the guy who's never owned a PS3.
Take a look at Versus XIII footage from 2008 to see what an early PS3 title looks like.
>>319382784
No it isn't
Announcement and a few people doing concepts in their time while the game is officially on hold is not the same fucking thing as full active development with over 200 devs, a full budget and 8th gen engine which only began in mid 2012
>>319382548
>None of the games are challenging
Not him but there certainly are some FFs that are harder than the others. The DS ones, LR, FFII and FFV in some aspects are harder than the other FF games when you put them at the same progress levels. Not counting superbosses obviously.
>>319383076
I found 5 to be quite easy honestly, the other ones mentioned definitely are on the harder side though
Still none of them exaclty challenged your wits, like 2 for exmaple is just a bullshit game in terms of its difficulty, the Ds remakes had a few issues with just making bosses hp sponges, cant speak for LR though as ive yet to play it.
>>319382989
Apples are apples no matter if you have 2 or 15 of them.
>spore: shit
>MGSV: unfinished
>GTA: half-assed jewish online
>Diablo3: everything
>No mans sky: will be inevitably disappointing
>Star citizen: abandoned ship
>Black Desert, Conan, and every MMO: casualized
When has a ridiculously auspicious game ever delivered? Will we get anything halfway satisfying by the time SE realizes they've spent 10 years developing a grassy field?
>>319373057
I'm kind of worried about this game. I'm hoping it won't be a rushed mess with dull side quests.
>>319382418
My friends look at me like I'm asking to suck their cocks when I try to encourage them to consider buying--or just google--XV. I pity those fags.
>>319373057
Actually it's just 1 and half if you didn't include the rework of PS3 version, not all assets transitioned on the PS4 version.
>>319383508
hopefully they'll come around. The game looks amazing man
>>319383473
HL2 delivered and is still one of the greatest landmarks in vidya history (and is my personal favourite).
>>319373057
>all those shitty looking trees in the background
No thanks!
One of the XV devs just commented on the cross-links after being asked about it on the XV forums
What he said was that cross-links do not work like how they do in the demo and have been significantly improved, and aside from that they also added in a new seamless type of co-op moves called slash-link, and that both the new and improved cross-links and slash-links are the bed rock for the co-op party moves and that they will keep working on them all the way until release.
Has best Cid(ney), gonna get it just for that.
>>319384436
That's an old and unoptimized build from 2014, they've vastly improved the visuals since then
>>319384634
this is not impressive in any way
>>319377453
You are what is wrong with this hobby and industry.
Please never play video games again.
>>319384730
Tell us what would impress you.
>>319384965
>they don't do it MY way, everyone should go to hell and die!!
How many years do you want to wait for FF7 to be completed in its absolute entirety? Would you even care by that point? Would the PS4 be around by then?
It's bad business form to take years or a decade to make a single video game.
>>319384730
Show me a single other massive open world game with full global illumination and fully real time dynamic image based and physics based lighting with day night cycle and weather cycle all with 100k poly models etc, and that runs at 1080p 30fps on consoles and with better animation than this
You really can't, not even MGSV, Witcher 3 or any other open world game comes close to that level of tech and achieving it on consoles
>>319383473
What... What happened to Black Desert? Is it out?
>>319385402
>all these buzzwords
Could it be the first game to actually make use of blast processing too?
>>319385634
Those are all high level graphical and tech features that exist in modern game development
Blast processing is advertising
>>319385402
>runs at 1080p 30fps on consoles
It's not even out, speglord.
>>319385402
Can you post another FFXV webms if you have them? I'm trying to collection them
It was in pre production for a long as time which counts as development
>>319385852
I have yet to see any talk about the gi the game supposedly uses outside of "we're using it". At best it's a limited approximation that might be somewhat above what games like Hitman Absolution labeled as gi. The other stuff is pretty basic, if somewhat new, shit that everyone is using these days I agree.
>>319384965
Fuck off faggot, people have different preference than you and I don't want to wait until 2020 to play this game. You can wait for the bundle in 2020 and end up with a better game than if you waiting until 2020 for a single game you dumbfuck. Let us pay a premium to play early if we want.
This game have co-op?
>>319373057
They still haven't shown us how magic fucking works
Who gives a fuck about FF15. Throw it in the shitter. Nobody cares.
Throw kingdom hearts in the shitter. No one cares.
They must focus all resources on FF7. FF7 is the only thing that history will remember.
Why does it look like shit far away? They can't be dropping the polys that low can they
>>319385984
