This is either going to be an overblown disaster or the best video game of all time
Take your bets
I'm betting it gets mixed reviews.
Obviously professional critics will be giving it 9s and 10s, though.
>>332597748
OP is a salty PC fat that's crying he isn't getting GOTYAY
It depends on whether the core fundamental gameplay is any good. Doesn't matter how ambitious the game is if at its core it is a bad action game with some RPG elements tacked on.
>>332597748
Overblown shit storm and will easily be Final Fantasy 13
Looks heavily rushed because they didn't want to make any more decisions and make the damn thing already.
Gonna skip it and wait to see how it ends up.
>>332597936
/thread
I think it'll be a strange departure from the rest of the franchise but ultimately if looked at on its own merits it'll be interesting at the very least if not just straight up good. Best game ever, probably not.
>>332597748
Just please don't let this game end up like this
>>332598172
Don't /thread your own post
>>332597748
The latter
I mean, it has a fucking batmobile!
Never played FF. Is 13 any good?
>>332598367
It's one of if not the worst games in the series.
I'm really hoping that it's going to be the best video game of all time, but that's what you should really hope from all video games, not what you expect.
I know that, realistically speaking, that it being the best game ever probably isn't going to happen. But these people put a lot of god damn work into this thing, making anime and a movie and all this shit that I honestly hope that it's still in the really fucking amazing category.guess I'll just have to judge it based on the demo once I've downloaded it tomorrow

Why do people have hope in this one then?
>>332598521

>>332597748
>tripfag making a thread
10's from major gaming outlets but it will have glaring, obvious flaws and a muddy story as a result of the 20 year development cycle.
Gameplay will be relatively solid.
>>332597748
Square is banking so hard XV will be the next Final Fantasy VII. I mean, they literally have thrown so much money into this game. If it bombs, they will be bankrupt. Bankrupted so bad that Final Fantasy VII Remake won't even save them.
I mean, I love their confidence that this game will be a success but holy shit they will have to sell so many copies just to even break even with all the shit thrown into this project
>>332598214
This.
FFXV is the most hyped game for me aside MGSV. And MGSV was that. I just can't be throatfucked again, r-rigth, guys?
>>332597748
It'll be the TW3 of 2016 and sweep GOTY, ushering in a new golden era for Japanese games.
Screencap this.
dead on arrival
I will post this in every thread that claims GOTY and remind them that they are wrong.
>>332598214
i thought you fucking raging homos LOVED this game
I was excited at first but as they kept announcing more and more I became more and more disappointed.
>>332599042
So it will be middling in quality?
>>332599135
Is this La Mulana?
Because it looks like La Mulana art. Wich remind me, I need to play this game.
>>332597748
Judging from the way they are treating it, I suppose it is going to be another disaster like the Phantom Pain.
>>332599338
It's La-mulana 2.
>>332599093
>all salty PCfags
>>332598902
You're under the impression that FFXIV ARR is not making any money at all for them
Anime will probably be up soon.
Here's a collection of videos from the presentation if you missed it:

>>332597904
That is not going to happen
>>332599442
I didn't know it had a sequence. Cool.
>>332598214
MGSV suffered from too little advertising and time
FFXV has way too many advertisements and has been in the works for a decade
I feel like they're trying to recreate VII by going overboard on the marketing and if they continue to do outrageous stuff like they did today they might succeed
>>332599575
The fuck are you talking about? MGSV was a massive financial success. He was talking about quality.
>car turns into a fucking plane
GOTY
>>332598367
It's one of the best in the series
>>332597748
As much as i like the shitposting, let's be serious for a minute here /v/irgins.
This game will bankrupt Square Enix
It is going to be a disaster.
>>332597748
I think it's probably going to be a good game by jrpg standards but shit on because of the massive hype. Another possibility is that it's going to be bad, even by jrpg standards, but final fantasy fans will have a mass psychotic delusion and genuinely convince themselves it's good until the next one comes out.
>>332598454
Same. Can't believe I'll be playing ffxv tomorrow even if it's just a demo
Ok, this is gonna be the more expensive videogame created? Not just the game, but everything related?
>>332599398
With MGSV, Kojima pulled the wool over our eyes, making it seem like the game had a large scope.
But it's pretty obvious that FFXV has a lot of effort put into it.
when's the special edition available?
>>332599917
demo is out at 9pm which is 20 minutes
>no PC shitters to shit up the fanbase
It's already going to be GOAT
>>332598214
Honestly, if it ends up like the first part of MGSV, I'll be thrilled. The second part? Not so much.

Good goy. Go buy the Deluxe Collector's Edition and remember to buy all the DLC and watch all the movies too.
The DEMO is 20min long
RECLAIM YOUR THRONE
NOCTIS WORE THE ROYAL RING
I am optimistic after seeing the 3? trailers they showed. Now just need to wait for the demo so I can play the combat
>>332600130
No. It sold over 5 million copies in a month or two and has surely sold more than that afterwards.
>>332597748
Overblown disaster followed by genuine acceptance and appreciation far too long after the dust clears.
They are giving away so much free shit. I love it but I am concerned. A movie? An anime series? Two demos? Probably millions in marketing too. I want this game to succeed. It looks fun, but how can they make a profit?
>>332599715
fucking this
>>332599445
I just wanna play ffxv...
This game probably needs to sell 150M to break even
>>332597748
Definitely the former.
>>332600386
They got a fuckload of money from XIV. They're fine.
Does anyone know where the anime was uploaded to?
>>332600253
oh that's great then
>>332600146
Oh I'm a shill because I'm stating facts now?
Kill yourself, I don't even want the CE.
>>332600146
And please, go play CSGO or some dead game that you hardcore gamers love. We will be here, beholding and playing one of the greatest games of the decade.

Can't hear you, Playing the FFXV demo
LMAO
>>332600521
Already out for SE-JP youtube.
Guess SE-NA will be incharge of posting the english version.
ARE YOU GOING TO BUY MY GEIMU?

>>332600607
>>332600953
Think this might be the first game I buy multiple copies of, Going to give them to children or put them on car hoods or something
>>332598214
Both have disastrous development process but Kojima is competent Tabata isn't.
But I mean is pretty much a PS4 exclusive soSONY WINS
>>332600607
Dumb cuckposter pls go
>>332598214
still the biggest disappointment of 2015 for me
>>332597748
Seems overblown. It's taken so long to finally come out. There's still 5 months to go. Now they're announcing all this alternative media, and this big limited edition with small production numbers. I hope the demo convinces me this is worth being hyped for.
>>332600386
All the eggs into the XV basket
That said, XV is constantly the most wanted game on Japanese polls/surveys and PS4 is selling so fucking good that it will sell regardless in the West.
>>332601441
>XV is constantly the most wanted game on Japanese polls/surveys
A Famitsu poll had it fall behind Persona 5.
>>332597748
>announcement is the most cringeworthy marketing bullshit of all time
>Threads are full of ponies who have nothing to say but "euhhhhh.... pc keks btfo? ;_;"
It's already been worth it and the game hasn't even released yet, this shitshow is glorious.
>>332598459
10 years and they didnt fixed a thing
>>332601543
Probably because P5 got a trailer. This was the first XV thing in a long time
>>332601639
>Fixed a thing
>>332601420
Biggest disappoint of all time besides my life for me
If they removed Prompto I would consider buying it.
Having an annoying character that gives me a headache everytime I play the game is not something that I can stand.
>>332601778
Also because XV has shown nothing but squeenix not knowing what they want to do with it and desperately going back and forth looking for direction.
Surely this will somehow magically lead to the best vidya of all time, and not more Duke Nukem Forever tier drivel.
>>332601778
It was actually before the February 2015 trailer. Before we had any real info.

There was nothing wrong with MGSV other than the weak story.

Don't feel so bad about not being able to buy it now kek

most of the price goes to the statue i guarantee. At least $140 of it.
>>332602921
>>332602951

I'll just get the $80 version. I don't need all that extra tat. I'm happy with the DLC (that fucking suit though!) and the soundtrack.
>>332597748
>hold X to battle
Flop
>>332598521
The very fundamentals and philosophies behind the two games couldn't be any more different.
Also a different crew and different director.

... I'm going to wait. I have a rule of waiting to purchase any game that has dlc.
>>332603226
Damn shame, I just want that cool box and the art book
>>332603289
Yep, I'll nab that 80$ version.Going to shed tears over not having that art book though
>>332603226
Yeah and with the almost 200 page hardcover artbook this isn't too ridiculous.
250 is probably more reasonable a price, but they don't need to lower it with this limited run hype scare crap.
>>332603589
Think they will release more later on?
Demo fucking when?
>>332601778
Bullshit
>>332597904
No, professional critics are going to use it as their hill to die on and give it 5's and 6's for being an example of Too Much Hype In Gaming. They're going to have their cake and shove it into their fat fucking faces, then complain about all the Japanese made and modeled characters secretly being white and no wimmin in the party.
>>332603818
It's out m8. I'm downloading it now
>>332603862
Fuck off
>>332603589
Fucking Square
>>332597748
I'm betting it will be a good game, like around 8.5-9 range good and sell well but not extremely well. They had a demo before which got some complaints but they later made changes so that it played better. I feel that they are making the game a lot better and really polishing it but defibetly can see that there will be some fundamental flaws with it making it hard for it to be the best game ever. I think the movie might be good fluff but that's about it, just fluff to advertise the movie. I'm curious whether the movie is going to be in theaters or not because it seems off and weird that they just released the movie trailer today when other movies have over a year of hype m. I guess it is a budgeted movie since they only got like b+ actors to be in the movie. Would have been better if they were in the game but whatever. I'm betting also that the movie will either be released in select amount of theaters, get sent to Netflix or some VOD service exclusive or possibly just be straight to video.
>>332603692
Of this set? Nah. I think Noctis is already coming out by himself but now with that weapon. I don't think the book will ever be by itself either. I'm actually kind of glad it's so high tho, gives time for my tax refund to come.
>>332600119
Is it actually confirmed for the same specs on both? I don't even have a ps4 yet, and don't know when I'll get one, since the ps4.5 might be coming out, but I got it for that instead of the bone because I assumed it would look better.
>>332604432
Jesus christ, did you have to write a fucking book report?
>>332597748
Think it's safe to go with the latter this time PC KEK.
I think it depends on the open world (whether there's a lot of dead time in between events/gameplay/etc) aspect and how well tabata adapts his directing to console development. He's only made handheld games, and the flow is different.
Who cares, just play some games instead.
Been playing Factorio, that shit is fantastic.
Anyone playing the demo?
A fat nerd video game critic will complain about the lack of strong female characters even though the game is purely fan service for women
>>332597748
It'll be FF7 for this generation. Absolutely fantastic for its time but flawed upon closer inspection, and quickly outclassed once devs finally get used to current gen technology.
>>332605245
Yep
>>332597748
I think it will be the game of the year, and even though Final Fantasy is my favorite vidya franchise of all, I don't think it will be GOTY, that of course will be Uncharted 4.
>>332604767
No I wrote my own opinion and gave op an answer that seems fitting. What's wrong with that?

People go into every Final Fantasy expecting it to be like the last one so there'll be that weird reaction and then slow appreciation. I remember years back when people had nothing but hate for XII and now people are saying they like it.
>>332606404
>People go into every Final Fantasy expecting it to be like the last one
This has literally never happened.
Especially after the 7th fucking one.
>>332606520
No one will admit it but that's clearly the case. That or they expect it to be like their favourite Final Fantasy. This series has been around for almost 30 years yet people still haven't quite gotten that it's one that changes with every game. People think FF is the Motorhead of gaming or something when that's not the case.
>>332600767
There are 2 versions of the game. One of the two is the definitive version. There is no inferior version because a PC version will never exist.
It's like bitching that consoles have the inferior version of RDR when that's all that exists.
TL;DR Never ever faggot.
>>332597748
It will be alright
>>332607528
When you are actively cheering for console exclusivity and hoping there won't be a PC version, then you are hoping for an inferior version.
A version that looked better and didn't run at 20fps did exist at one point. It's what the devs used to make the game.
How about "it's gonna be a medicore as fuck AAA romp that everybody will forget about in six months"
It's going to be too ambitious.
It's going to buckle under its own weight.
Mark my words.
>>332606404
Well, if it makes you feel any better, I still hate XII (And XIII. And X. And VIII. And IV. And most of the non numbered spinoffs too.).
>>332605771
