Brother, but not necessarily blood related.
>>344398526
The jews in ameria fear masculinity as they have none of it.
>>344398819
Is that why none of them are gay and have female interests, and multiple of them actively hitting on women constantly? And the one here who is gay is you? Why project so hard?
>>344399309
All of them are adults and none of them are emo.
>>344399423
I'm honestly glad it's a male only party. It's rare to see genuine brotherhood in games and media lately.
>>344399412
From what I remember form playing Yakuza, it's how two guys in the Yakuza refer to each other after they decided they were as close as brothers after certain events. I still don't fully understand some of the aspects of the Yakuza even though I played all games so far except the j-onry ones.

Be careful because this is possibly legit if you read the supposed leaked info, but the ending will be truly masculine/brotherhood based too.

>>344399860
The guy leaked the E3 demo name.
>>344399830
Gladio is military
Noctis isn't emo in the slightest and is literally wearing military coat, military cropped cargoes, military combat boots, arm guard and an undershirt
Ignis is in semi formal style because he's a tactician and attendant, his hairstyle has also been in most FF games.
You sound extremely insecure about the fact that you are gay, why project so hard?
>>344399985
yeah, look, characters don't have to be gay to be anime

>>344399985
Not to mention that Prompto went from this to that and worked for years to do so.
>>344399958
He didn't leak anything. We already knew the E3 demo name from the March trailer saying it in Japanese, and we also already knew that the battle against the summons were called Trials, we also already knew that one of the demos they planned was going to be about Titan, Tabata even said so himself in 2014 that originally ED was going to be about fighting Titan but they moved the demo the the area just before that fight happens instead which is what ED currently is. He also after ED came out said they would plan to have other demos leading up to release

just because it has an all male cast doesn't mean it's "masculine"

>>344400053
I'm not sure why you are trying so hard. Story about masculine themes has nothing to do with actually being a buff. People consider Luffy a manly character and he's a skinny twink.
>>344400128
The Japanese name doesn't translate to anything like he English name though?
>>344400260
The Japanese name we saw in March is literally the same name used in the E3 demo when you play that demo in Japanese. It says (literal translation)Revelation of the Titan which can also be translated to Trial of the Titan. We already knew that the battles against Summons were being called Trials in the English version before that anyway.
>>344400557
Is that so? That's good then. That whole leak had me worried about the game.
>>344400203
What's gay about hitting on women? What's gay about going to your wedding to marry your girlfriend?
>>344400219
I don't think you know what masculine means if you think XV isn't focusing on it, it's literally focussing on the brotherhood and bonds between the 4 main male comrades, brotherhood objectively involves masculinity.
You sound extremely insecure.
>>344400673

But you are the one who said they look like one, so clearly you are trying to base that off your understanding of what a gay bar is. Which means you are saying you have first have experience of a gay bar.
I've only seen google pictures but that still looks nothing like the pic in OP. In fact from just googling "gay bar" you get a bunch of pics of muscular men, the very same type of men you are saying are the definition of manliness.

Characters are garbage, story is garbage, art direction was so garbage it sent gaming into a grey/brown obsession it only recently recovered from and gameplay was so garbage it sent the third person genre into a glacial paced wall hugging simulator that it has not and may never recover from
Absolute garbage series on every level. Games like Halo and even Call of Duty I can see some merits amongst their many flaws, but Gears of War is one of the worst franchises going. It should tell you something literally no one who enjoyed the awful single player did so solo, you will find they always co-op it, and those that didn't hate it. I wonder why.

Mass Effect 3 was a pretty good TPS game. In MP there was a lot of variety and powers to play with and it was fun.
Also, if you can consider Warframe a TPS on any level, that game is at least decent.
There's plenty of hope for the genre IMO. It just needs to get some interesting ideas behind it.

>The typical bully in school that punched gay guys just because he was a gay guy as well
Prompto was fat as a kid and worked hard to lose his weight so he could be friends with Noctis, the prince didn't actually care he was fat or skinny and was just glad that someone wanted to be his friend instead of be around him just because he was the prince. He then becomes a skirt chasing womanizer because all the girls are constantly getting wet just from looking at Noctis, and so he gets that shared attention since he's always with him in highschool days.
Gladio is a military man who is from a family sworn to protect the royal line, he previously wore more military style outfits but is seen in more macho man style outfits. He at first hated Noctis's guts because of how much of a brat he was, but when Noctis ended up helping out his younger sister and taking the blame so that she wouldn't get in trouble he started warming up to him, he acts as a big brother figure to him and taught him how to fight.
Noctis was isolated but spoiled as child who rejects the royal conventions and acts as he pleases, as he grows older he acts arrogant and tough to hide his shyness and isn't really as good at doing things as he thinks he is, which he is often ridiculed for by his friends. He later on accepts his responsibilities as king after his kingdom is invaded and he slicks his hair back like his father and starts wearing a suit.
Ignis is a royal strategist and attendant to the prince, he acts as a confidant that does everything in his power to protect the prince, so much so that when Noctis lost his mother he took it upon himself to learn how to cook meals so that Noctis would always be fed.
Later on Gladio, Ignis and Prompto all start wearing the Kingsglaive military uniform too.
Happy?

>>344406493

How could Prompto be 5'7 if he's taller than Noct (5'9)? See OPic
>>344406895
He isn't taller. Prompto is just walking ahead of them in that shot while Noctis is a bit behind them. His official character description even specifically says he's shorter than Noctis.

why the fuck are people replying to this
It's because the (((media))) has infected the west with the meme that anything masculine == GAY. See this thread for an example; it's just IMPOSSIBLE for anyone to conceive of a close friendship or brotherhood anymore in America.
I've noticed this in groups of my male friends as well -- it's all obviously masculinity signaling there ("ha ha we're all so gay but I can joke about that because we aren't really"), but that just echoes the feeling that a group of close knit male friends is somehow "wrong".
They perpetuate this meme to interfere with male friendship and bonding and make us easier to oppress. The meme just hasn't spread to Japan yet.

I think the glaives outfit doesn't suit Ignis. Should've been a jacket like Noctis has.
Also not sure why do they wear these suits at all considering in the movie almost all glaives areimmigrants and traitors
>>344412770
Most of them are but not all of them, Crowe is Lucis native. Also Ignis isn't a Lucis native like the other three. Considering his accent is British like Luna's I think he might even be from Tenebrae, he can even use Cure magic like Tenebrae people can.

She would have the same accent in the game to even with a different VA.

Honestly, the world and it's culture is what intrigues me the most about the game. I mean, I like the characters just fine and their banters is fun but that whole "Fantasy world that modernized similarly to ours" is such and underused idea. I can't wait to explore some of these locations and find out more about their lore.
