So am I the only queer that teared up once Stand By Me kicked in?
I found it completely unfitting, and wished that they just kept with Shimomura's stuff.
Yes, you're a faggot.
Ben E King is rolling in his grave.
I'm not really emotionally attached to characters in a game I haven't played yet so no
Hype for it though
>>332683876
Looks Like Xenoblade X without the mechs.
>>332683876
No... fag.
But seriously, I didn't tear up when the song started but when the song goes 'stand by me. stand by me.'? Like a little bitch.
Yes. The game already has a perfectly great OST. That said Stand By Me is probably going to be kept to the credits.
I didnt tear up because im not a little girl or gay, but I did get hyped
>>332683876
>mfw the prelude is in that song
>>332684410
Biker and Gearhead >>>>> Generic princess
That was so cringe worthy so yeah.

Bet she would have thought an all female cast would be fine though, I forgot to ask back when we were still talking.

Isn't the game before this like a fucking fantasy MMO?
Why is the next game like some kinda cyberpunk nonsense?

OH SHIT NIGGA I JUST NOTICED THAT
It sums up (at least hopefully) the dynamic between the four characters in a beautiful way and I love Florence's voice. Odd clunky ARPG combat and suboptimal frame rates suck but if the chemistry between the characters is strong and the story is a good ride, I might be able to look past part of it. It'll be a nice change to see this game as more of a band of brothers against the world instead of the usual group of misfits we get in FF games. Plus the game is gorgeous and flashy. Looks like a much more serious KH. And I like that.
Which is your favorite?

Feminists don't even pretend that they want equality anymore; they openly say they want to shift balance to women because anything short of that will fail.
I like the mix with Prelude.
At first I laughed like everyone else, but it started to seem fitting.
Noctis wants his friends to stand by him, the devs thank you for standing by them etc.
>>332684807
All? Maybe. Most? Definitely. All of the kingsglaive are already confirmed not in FFXV.
>>332684319
There's a pictures floating around that shows Xenoblades influence. Lots of new JRPG added that distance landscape earth thing. XV and Tales of Zesteria added it as well.
So what's the story about?
>>332685017
I seriously hope you understand what the song is referencing by having it being the theme of FFXV.
>>332685067
yeah its weird to me since I thought that Regis would have Cor at least, but I guess these aren't necessarily bodyguards than a smaller personal force for the king?
>>332684482
>>332685119
A prince is having a rad bachelor party with his bros and then another kingdom betrays his dad and he's supposedly killed so now the Prince has to take his kingdom back and save his waifu.
>>332685275
Is that from The Wire, or something else? I haven't seen McNulty in anything but that series.
>the trailers have only gotten worse
Hopefully the game makes up for that.
>>332683876
The original song was better, can't feel anything for this butchery.
>>332685206
I didn't really look that much into it. Care to explain?
>>332685465
Fuck off Kagari.
>>332684859
Fantastic bait but it didn't seem to be enough
>>332685119
There are four kingdoms, each with their own crystal. Noctis is a prince of Insomnia, one of these kingdoms. One of the other kingdoms, Niflheim, goes on a campaign to take all the crystals, which results in Niflheim storming and destroying Insomnia. Noctis and three of his friends manage to escape in their cool car. They go on an adventure to defeat the evil empire Niflheim.
>>332685465
You're waifu was scrapped. Get over it.
>>332684482
HOLY SHIT YOU'RE RIGHT
How the fuck did I notice that?!
>>332685651
What is it with FF and crystals, holy fuck. I can't even get mad anymore at it because it feels like it has to have shit with crystals in the plot now.
>>332685529
>I didn't really look that much into it. Care to explain?
Stand By Me is a famous movie about four boys on an adventure.
>>332685634
What?
>>332685740
>WOW WHY IS THERE A CAR? ISNT THIS SUPPOSE TO BE FINAL FANTASY?
>WOW WHY DO ALL FINAL FANTASY GAMES HAVE TO BE ABOUT CRYSTALS
neo-ff fans are the worse
>>332685761
Oh, I've never seen it.
>>332685740
It's a trope connecting all the games, otherwise you might not even consider them a franchise
>>332685740
>now
Almost every game has had crystals in it.
It might be every fucking game.
>>332685761
I thought of that movie from the first trailer I saw
>>332685884
Good movie, you should watch it.
>>332684032
This. What the fuck were they thinking.
>>332683876
How could you possibly? How do you have a connection to the characters after just seeing trailers?
I teared up because the cover was horrible.
>>332683876
They should've used the original song.
It was pretentious, unfitting and cringy and reminded me to that fucking movie "Stand By Me"
Kojima should have chosen the song instead
>>332683876
I didnt tear up but I enjoyed the song. Really good cover. Makes the game feel more well rounded.
>>332686242
If Kojima chose the song he would have spoiled the entire fucking plot.
>>332685761
So this movie is the ending of FF15?
One of them dies and they all go live their shitty lives alone?
>>332686242
Fuck off, Florence Welch is better than STANDING
>>332686407
>>332686242
fuck you
>>332686242
Nigga, Kojima doesn't work with SE. He works with Sony now.
>>332686242
if it reminded you of the movie, how can you say its unfitting to the theme they'e been pushing with FFXV?
And in what way is it pretentious?
Would have been good if it wasn't Florence & the machine.
Shame Ben E King died.
>>332683876
Ummm, probably.
>>332685465
I'm fine with her being scrapped, I hate the "I love you, but I must fight you because my family expects me to" shit that the Japanese are so fond of.
>>332686242
>It was pretentious
what
>>332686570
why do you even say that?
I know
idiot
>>332685761
It's kinda crazy how popular that movie is in Japan.
>>332686593
>pretentious
It was pretentious because you could tell they did this shit to make an impression of
>look we old music taste and westerboo
>>332686673
If you know he works with Sony, why would you comment "He should have chosen the song" For a Square-Enix game?
>>332686428
Thanks for the spoiler tag you fucking asshole
>>332686617
Florence welch is pretty damn talented though. I mean they got Leona Lewis for XIII, who, though debateable, is a good singer but they just tacked her and her song onto the game.
In this instance, they wanted a song that fit with the theme, and though it's not a new one, it's a song that many people can relate to and understand its significance to the game.
>>332684032
>>332686049
>I ONLY LIKE JARANESE MUSICCCC >:(((((((
Brain dead weebs detected
>>332686812
I'm sorry man, your reasoning makes you sound really ignorant on the subject.
And again, you're avoiding the part where you say it's unfitting, but in the same breath saying it reminds you of Stand By Me.
Florence is cute!
Cute!
CUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUTE!
>>332686896
You're in a thread about a video game and are mad that someone spoiled the ending of a 30 year old movie.
>>332686923
>Florence welch is pretty damn talented though
>>332686812
>look old music taste and westerboo
It was literally a cover by a modern artist, and the song starts playing when the trailer starts to focus on the brotherhood and comradarie of the four main characters.
It's completely fitting you fucking pleb.
>>332687097
Are you implying otherwise?
Are we in universal agreement that Luna is better than Stella?
>>332687097
She is, you might not like her, but she's better than a lot of the brainless pop stars out there. Won't get into a debate on how you should enjoy her music, if you don't, then that's fine. You do you.
But I stand by my comment, she's fucking talented.
>>332687219
I'm stating otherwise.
>>332686739
Source? Only thing I can think of that references it is Pokemon and only the American version.
>>332687309
Of course, we're not that deluded bitch from Neogaf.
>>332687357
but why?
>>332687309
She's cuter.
>>332686617
As others have pointed, the song wasn't just chosen at random. Florence wasn't either, she uses harps in her arranges which are the default instrument for the classic Final Fantasy Prelude. Listen closely, the tunes revert to it at times during the song.
>>332687309
Luna seems boring from everything we've seen.
>>332687648
It's not to my taste. "Better than all the other shit" doesn't fly. Don't listen to the fucking radio if it's all garbage, instead of clinging to the garbage that stinks the least. It's fucking garbage, take it out.
>>332687392
Just what I've heard.
http://legendsoflocalization.com/qa-does-japanese-pokemon-reference-stand-by-me/
>>332687780
I wouldn't be surprised if Shimomura or even Tabata himself are fans of her work, and know a good fit for the game.
>>332687810
and Stella wasnt?
>>332683876
I do not know why but every fucking time I learn something new about FFXV the game looks a bit worse.
Long time ago game looked like something new and fresh. With four bros4life - something unusual in FF games - fighting different monsters.
Then it turned out that characters look and act like typical boysband queeros.
Then it turned out that combat is full of scripted animations.
Then the demo came, and it turned out that it's casual as shit.
Now they've decided to force Stand By Me into this game, making main queeros even more gay.
>>332687989
We barely knew anything about her, but since she was apparently antagonistic, that means she at least seemed to have more going for her than Luna does.
>>332688001
Why are so many people judging this shit on a demo which is almost just a tech demo?
I mean come on, how is this FF related? They literally just tied in Leona and the song to the game without any real regard to the game.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USxD2r2DqFQ
>>332688001
Did you play the demo?
Because if you did then you should know that it's not scripted stuff.
Fuck, sorry i forgot that if i don't shit on a game then i'm shilling it
What the fuck is up with Neo-/v/ today? So many people are shitting on this game when it's obvious they have no idea what their talking about, which drowns out actual criticism
>>332688161
PC fats
>>332688078
I'm mostly worried about the framerate. It felt like it was constantly dipping into the 20's when you looked at anything that wasn't a wall
>>332684410
>All those interesting NPCs
>We are doomed to play ONLY with Noctis and ONLY the boyband will be our companions for all the game
Why would you do that?
It's not only wasted potential, you are killing your game with such a boring and bland party.
>>332688078
>Why are people basing opinions of a game on something designed to demonstrate the game?
>>332688105
>Because if you did then you should know that it's not scripted stuff.
It's "scripted" as in "long animations activated in combat". Reminds me of GoW or Ryse. I've been shitting on these games because of it, I am shitting on FFXV as well.
>>332688278
yeah i'm still a bit disappointed that we may get some temporary party guests... but i wish Cor, Luna, Gentiana etc would be able to join permanently.
Someone in a thread last night posted that Tabata said that they scrapped the idea of Luna joining as a temporary party member in a recent interview, but when I asked for source they never replied.
Really hope its not true
>>332688092
Nice try, but people complained about that back then too, and it was the dumbass idea of the American branch of SE.
>>332687309
Who cares?
HIME A BEST. Dragoon a second and Cidney a third.

>devs wanted to brag about the game

>>332688556
Sorry but where am I saying people didn't complain about it? Of course they did and rightfully so.
I'm bringing this in regards to that guy saying how Stand By Me is a terrible choice for the game and doesn't fit the narrative. I should have added his post as a reply, but I forgot to.
>>332688049
You are projecting heavily. You are just using Stella as a scapegoat for your "WHAT COULD OF BEEEEEEN" so you have a reason to bitch and act like you knew what was better for the game
>>332688262
I didn't notice it being that bad outside of the time I let loose a fire cracker in that book house when you're mini.
Then again, I've never really been able to notice frame drops that much outside of points where it grinds to a halt.
>>332688771
How am I projecting? We know Stella was an antagonist, and we've seen more of Luna over time, and what we've seen tells us very little about what Luna's point even is outside of being a goal for the bros on their road trip. Which makes her a really boring character, however much they try to pretend her looking stern faced in a trailer indicates she's strong and cool.
they should of used the sam smith version
>>332688959

>>332687309
Well now that a Gamespot interview with Tabata confirmed that she won't be a party member I'm kind of disappointed, but I do look forward to things like that Leviathan scene.
>>332689181
>>332688959
I'm really tempted to replace Stand By Me with In The Summertime
>>332689357
>wanting a woman in the party
No thanks. FFXV is about bros.
>>332689418
Do it. Better song.
>Regis knows he's dead
Honestly the trailer just seemed weird. Maybe the tone was off or the music choice didn't fit how they wanted it too.
Versus XIII had a much more clear tone to its world and characters.
>>332683876
Is this the cast? Haven't kept up with FF since XII. Why is everyone so homogeneous looking now? What happened to going on adventures with a dancer, a bard and a tribble?
>>332689506
No! I want the team dynamic to become totally awkward whenever a woman is present. Hopefully Gentiana or that new girl from the recent trailer are still fair game.
>>332689613
It's a story of bros doing bro things for their bros
a brother in arms type of story
>>332689614
Looks like this FF has a lot of real life elements in it mixed with some sci fi mixed with some high fantasy shit. kinda neat imo
>>332689614
"This is a fantasy based on reality."
>Full version of the song not up
>>332683876
No. I cannot watch that trailer without crying. But not because of the song, it's how great the game looks combined with the fact that I've been waiting a decade for it.
It was funny how the whole audience laughed when it first started playing though. I laughed too, I was like "seriously?" but the longer I thought about it, it is a pretty good fit for the whole buddy road trip aspect of the game.
>>332689836
A reality where everyone dresses like a biker?
>>332689614
Yup, back in my day the video games were better
Why can't games be made like back in the good old days?

Kid's these days games old new old better
>>332686428
>One of them dies
Cor
>>332689836
I'm still waiting for them to explain what that means.
It's kind of like someone saying "This is diet based on Twinkies"
This is how you hype a game, my god what a marvelous experience that trailer was
Square Enix really wants to reach a step higher in game making, an experience so engaging that it feels brought from a movie
what's going on here?
>>332690108
I think it shows the style and flair of the game really well.
Like you have all these fantastic creatures and magic, but also everyone plays around with their smartphone and they have a cool car.
>>332690059
>Implying Cor wont be the one to kill someone
>>332690108
What is there to explain? It's literally fantasy shit like dragons and magic mixed with modern day like gas, cars, buildings, computers, but not full blown space traveling scifi.
Is there anywhere to download high quality versions of the trailers that don't have shitty Youtube compression?
I miss the days when devs released actual .avis or .mp4s of their trailers.

Fuck this planet.
>>332690950
I hope that's not the only mini game.
But even if it is that's still more than XIII had.
>>332691252
Still looks like a clear reference to the movie, the whole broship concept makes it obvious
I absolutely love this rendition of Stand By Me, gives me shivers every time I hear it
>>332684854
How come japs are so good at making these pre rendered cutscenes? Why can't western devs compete?
So is Stand By Me going to be the game's theme song, or is it just for the trailer?
>>332691631
Only blizzard can
DARLING,
DARLING,
STAND
>>332691631
Warcraft 3 cutscenes looked better 15 years ago.
>>332691697
My understanding is that this version is intended to be the game's theme
>>332691697
Probably the prelude theme
![maxresdefault[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/6UN460z.jpg "maxresdefault[1].jpg")
>>332691631
Blizzard blows everyone the fuck away, or at least they used to.
Aside of them, western devs just don't seem very interested in pre-rendered graphics. Japs have a long history of loving them though, particularly Square.
Link to trailer?
>>332692093
Read the thread.
>>332685465
Indeed they have
And it's not only about Stella
Stella herself is FF Versus XIII
She was scrapped and reworked into something unrecognizable
This is all Matsuno's fault and Tanaka's fault
Partly Toriyama's as well

>>332692579

>>332685807
If you're still lurking and serious, Final Fantasy games do not follow each other, and most aren't even set in the same universe.

Did somebody said Naruto?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d8xoTBZrzko
>>332692878
yes
>>332692878
Because Blizzard didn't animate the Warcraft movie. Legendary Pictures did.
>>332692709
Every FF game takes place in the same universe but focuses on a different cast on varying planets at different time periods.
>>332692579
>Versus was a million times more interesting
Oh yeah, all that shit that we never saw from that game that was never made was way more interesting.

This. I'm not a fan of the series, but I think they and the folks behind Killzone/Until Dawn are dmn great at this stuff.
While I didn't loved the cover, I did tear up.My gf used to sing Stand by Me all the time when I was downLuna was her favorite pen name
Almost 9 years since she died, she was super hyped when FFv13 was announced.
>>332683876
Doesn't fit. Like at all
>>332695458
ouch, sorry to hear bro. that's like adding salt to your wounds with it being in this game now. wow
>>332695591
Want to explain why you feel it doesn't at all fit with the game's theme/narrative?
>>332683876
I cried too. Of laughter.
>>332695458
God damn, that sounds rough as fuck...sorry anon.

How is it unfitting? The lyrics perfectly fit in.
But you're right, they should've gotten a Backstreet Boys song or a generic jpop song instead.
>>332684190
>Ben E King is rolling in his grave.
If you genuinelly believe this you're clinically retarded.
>>332696303
YOOOOOOOOOOO
>>332695786
The song doesn't fit with the atmosphere, the world.
A fantasy modern world with visual kei characters and superpowers. A slow as fuck song in a trailer that doesn't even have any emotion put into it, like It'd fit better if there were some sad scenes or some shit but it's just showing the world.

Who is this semen demon?
>>332684482

You act like a Backstreet Boys song wouldn't be perfect
>>332690141
That's from getting Ramuh in episode duscae.
>>332696683
she looks somewhat related to Gladio. or at least i think he is
>>332690141
whenver he uses magic or summons his hair and eyes change color
>>332696530
>How is it unfitting?
Like reading Berserk while listening to Hatsune Miku.
>But you're right, they should've gotten a Backstreet Boys song or a generic jpop song instead.
Nice damage control nigger.
The song doesn't fit with Final Fantasy, that's it.
>>332696758Everybooooodyah
I am seriously impressed at how well it sounds, just completely fitting.
Marvelous trailer, hope this game lives up to the hype
>search for carbuncle
>google image
what the fuck
Naturally cuz you called yourself a queer, I read it as, Stand By Men.
In which I came in this thread to say yes.
By I noticed it's Stand By Me.
Either way, you're still gay.
lol
>>332696758
>implying superior Boys2men wouldn't be better
>>332696952
>The song doesn't fit with Final Fantasy, that's it.
Does it physically hurt being this stupid?
>>332696952
>Like reading Berserk while listening to Hatsune Miku.
So you're completely ignoring the lyrics and then you think that it would've been better with... what? Death metal? Kpop? What?
>Nice damage control nigger.
Nice nonexistant arguments faggot. You didn't even give any kind of suggestions for what kind of song should've been used instead. That right there shows everyone your incompetence.

Should have gone with Linkin Park
>>332696952
>The song doesn't fit with Final Fantasy, that's it.
But pop, soapy shit, death metal with growling and more does?
>>332683876
No, but it did stick on me like a fucking zergling
>>332696952
It doesn't fit? How so? The lyrics and meaning of the song are perfect for the themes that SE has set out for this game and shown that the entire game is about as a whole.
Are you just a mad weeb that it's not JAPANEESU? OH SORRY, NIHONGO?
>>332697489
I hope this is some shit tier bait son, cus if you really think that you are one retarded piece of shit
>>332696952
Just ignore the orchestral autist
>Camera on their back
>In a street
>Boys
>>332697885
Should have just gone with the fact that they are on a backstreet - which is why the backstreet boys are named that anyway.
>>332697885
oh shit
>>332697482
Lyrics don't fit. The game is about comraderie and sticking together.
>>332697885
I hope that's the actual cover, would be amazing
>>332683876
I don't really know what to think. Everything seems impressive overall like art direction and music, but I'm split on the theme song. Mixed is game design and gameplay, and the big tossup and make or break of the game is the story. There are, as analyzed by Eurogamer's Digital Foundry, some performance issues with keeping steady framerates this late in development. I'm also really skeptical about all the spinoff material for what is supposedly supposed to be a game that is "independent" of everything else and had its plot and characters changed for the sole purpose of "tying up loose plotlines".
There seems to be a hint of desperation from Square Enix for this game to really succeed. They really do have a lot riding out on this, and I don't see any indication that this game can do any better than "really good" in terms of sales and the effort they are putting out for it. Which would be fine for any other game but the one game which the company's future depends on.
I dunno. I think Square Enix is done. I don't think this game is good enough to generate "phenomenal" sales to save the company, along with its spinoffs.
>>332698140
It's the japanese one at least, fully expecting a face staring at me for the west
>>332683876
i was tearing up but more because i knew truly in my heart that classic final fantasy was dead forever
>>332698225
I'm sure you also thought FF13 was a failure because you personally didn't like it and, at the time, claimed it was the end of the company.
Then 13-2 came out and you said it again.
Then Lightning Returns came out and you said it again.
>>332683876
I teared upBECAUSE OF HOW FUCKING TRASH THE GRAPHICS ARE
FUCKING HELL
>>332697156
Anon pls, they'd play whenever Luna is talking to Noctis.
>>332698307
>i was tearing up but more because i knew truly in my heart that classic final fantasy was dead forever
There is more classic FF to 15 than there was to 10, 12 and 13.
>>332697885
This is a good cover.
>>332698732
that's why i said classic, as in 1-9
It's funny how all the weebs are panicking because the theme is not taken out from an edgy Shippuden opening with a theme that has nothing to do with the game itself. But hey, it's weeb shit so it must be good.
Kill yourself autists, theme fits perfectly
Why was Noubu even on vid?
>HELLO EVERYONE I AM STILL ALIVE BUT OLD AS FUCK
>I have nothing to do with this game
>goodbye
>>332698225
>I'm also really skeptical about all the spinoff material for what is supposedly supposed to be a game that is "independent" of everything else and had its plot and characters changed for the sole purpose of "tying up loose plotlines".
The movie and anime aren't spinoffs, the movie is about events that happen during the game that don't personally involve Noctis and the anime is a prequel. This is probably just a way of them retaining some of those loose plotlines without having to make sequels that might not sell.
>>332698838
I am a super weeb and I thought this was an unexpectedly perfect decision on their part. I never even imagined them using this as the theme but it's the very best song they could have used for it.
It's the fake weebs, the Love Live fans, that hate this.
>>332698838
Projecting hard, reddit scum
>>332698838
>>332698962
Ditto
A better option than going Eyes on Me or Suteki da ne
Will SE sue Gamespot?
>>332685740
>What is it with FF and crystals, holy fuck. I can't even get mad anymore at it because it feels like it has to have shit with crystals in the plot now.
Spot the newfag
>>332698895
yeah just like sakaguchi
>>332698804
>that's why i said classic, as in 1-9
Yes? Or do you think the things that made FF seroes stand out was the turn based combat or something? The combat gameplay was never good, it was always average and fairly shallow.
>>332698838
Ahem
*pushes glasses against nose*
The problem was differing with the original, Japanese music. Such a change could only ever result in a downgrade. Know that I will at least be using authentic Japanese voices with subs over some dubbed garbage.
looks like a giant piece of turd to me
cliche setting
shallow main chars + faggot hair + teenage shit
wouldnt even pirate it/10
>>332699139
No, not worth the time or money and they wouldn't get much out of it. They'll just stop advertising on their site (GS's main income is advertising, and SE actually releases a fuck ton of popular normie games, so that's a big hit) and not give them early review copies and such.
>>332699210
>The combat gameplay was never good
i disagree
>>332699246
Remember when trolling took effort?
I hate shitposting. It's so lazy.
>FFXV is supposed to be about a bunch of bros
>/v/ will corrupt it with a bunch of LE EPIC GAY /V/ MEME shitposting
Sometimes I hate what the Internet has created. No more simple adventures with your friends, it HAS to be gay shit now for the sake of memes and shitposting women-wannabe fagboys.
