New high level gameplay of FF XV

Direct link because fuck IGN.

On topic though, the dagger attack animations look way too pre-scripted (but that's shared among all ravage animations in the game it seems)

Also, I'm sick of seeing the Duscae region

Garbage. Final Fantasy is a turn based RPG series Period. No. Debate.
Trying new things never meant being a new genre entirely, and that's what Square has forced on its fans for 15 years.

It all boils down to Toriyama Kitase Nomura and Tabata want their own style of game, before ever giving their core fanbase what they want instead, and they've done it for so long they've created this melting pot of people that fight all the time. In the end Final Fantasy rightfully belongs to the turn based community and they should have never had to share with other demographics in the first place.

This idea that "trends have changed" is a bulls*** lie they've perpetuated that gets shot to hell everytime it's put to the test. When ports and remakes outsell new games of theirs, when turn based Dragon Quest 9 broke the all time sales record in Japan it proves that the execs with Square-Enix don't know what they're talking about.

Select magic, point at area in awkward third person aiming mode, release. Sure, in older FF games it was just selecting a spell and selecting magic, but they could have used something with a combo system like Kingdom Hearts.

That's more for strategic placing. If you just tap the button, it throws it on the closest target automatically.

It's probably the same “part” or “demo” that G.Informer played. They did say SE have them playing another “combat mechanic” demo. If you’d notice they always fight at an almost exact same location or near it. A tower near a shack with duscae backdrop.

It is “nostalgia” because you whine about a change. And no, ATB or turn based RPG is not THAT great like most of you paraded it. It's repetitive, and a few challenging boss fights down the road in between hours of doing the same thing over and over again is not a good system. Even action based combat has it's own flaws.

I played a lot of Plat Demo. I feel the dodging is incredibly shitty because I'll press the button right before the attack hits me and I'll end up hit anyways. I try to change up my timing but it only seems to work randomly. Do I just need more practice or is the game broken?

No, Xenoblade X has mmo combat, which actually works and at least does it job.
FFXV is some weird shit stuck between action game and RPG and yet not being action RPG. Seems that only faggots who love it are kingdom hearts fans which has similar gameplay as far I gather.
I won't touch this turd of a battle mechanics ever, demos were enough for me.

Good luck with your game, Square.
Inevitably, fanboys end up buying your games no matter how shit they are though, so I don't think you need the luck.
Plus you could get part of the casual market with the meme open-world and pretty graphics, so long as they can get over how homoerotic the game is.

It looks cool as always, but at the same time it looks like a complete mess of particle effects and animations that won't feel good to control

Having played both demos, there is nothing in the video that gets me excited for the game more or less than before.

Not really, it just means you and a bunch of other faggots can't handle change nor can you handle the fact that things should, can, and will change. The older games are there for you to play if you desire turn-base combat so much and other devs make turn-based combat games as well. Also, unless you work for Square Enix, shut the fuck up about business and execs etc. You are a consumer who buys games to play them; limit your opinions to the shit you know, not the shit you think you know.

?
>>
>>337957869
The game tells you not all attacks are dodgeable.

And Dodge works perfectly fine since it's an on or off state depending on if the button is being pressed. It's not an input lag issue.
>>
>>337957869
>>337958635
The demo has issues, but seriously, no one even bothered reading the load screens saying this or even experimenting a bit with an action combat system.
>>
>>337954753
Skills are party commands now. But I doubt they'll cost MP, but it didn't, MP bar is somewhat useless in this game. And like this guy >>337954834 said (he's probably saying about the skill Tempest, where in Duscae it's an active command, but in Platinum it's a different combo set for the greatsword). So now, you'll have 2 type of tempest skill, one for Noctis and one for Gladio.
>>

It's not just about the loading screen. It's about everything during the Iron Giant section. Can't people at least try to see what, I dunno, trying to do different button combinations does? There were many who had no idea how to begin aerial combat because the game didn't tell them.

>>337959618
>but how are you supposed to know which ones are or aren't
This is my take on this, Noctis, despite can dodge things (the blue shadow thing), have a limited range where he can maneuver like that. He can easily dodge sword swings but fails to dodge something huge coming at him like when the Iron Giant slamming his fist on the floor or the tail swip of the behemoth.

Combat in this game is great when you get the hang of it, Air combat is instantly deeper than KH2FM. KH2 you had no control of where sora went and you just spammed X doing the same combo while juggling the enemy till you were done.

In XV however you use the direction stick while in Air to flip and dodge. You can also swap weapons which also will make a bigger difference in the final game, In my Webm I am quickly reading the IGs moves and swapping to Fire then tapping Triangle for a cheaper quicker warp away then swapping back to my sword after he is done attacking to trade.

That half-frozen behemoth was pretty cool.

> Can't people at least try to see what, I dunno, trying to do different button combinations does?

yes, almost everyone naturally does this. xv does a poor job of making this process intuitive/giving feedback, which is why a lot of people didn't get very far with it. the dodging is one example of this. it's hard to tell how it works without extensive experimentation where it's actually a pretty simple system, just poorly signified.
>>
I don't get GAF's complaintx about control feedback response when most of the unresponsiveness with the combat comes from bad framerate/pacong.

Dodge roll has no iframes so you need proper timing to evade with dodge rolls. Using the backflip on airstep sword gives you some iframes though. You can also use shield to get perfect blocks with correct timing and topple enemies with it.

The combat is legitimately pretty solid and has some interesting tech going on, and I'm sure we'll get a lot of videos immediately following the game's release demonstrating even more of that. It's just that PD kind of sucks as a demo, it's very obviously a quickly thrown together affair made of tech demo components and it tells the player effectively nothing of any substance about how combat actually works.

Having only the Iron Giant to fight doesn't help matters either. I don't get why they couldn't have added more of those modifier buttons and have them spawn different mobs.

I so badly wanted this game to blow my mind, but with both demos being underwhelming and this magic system I think I have to resign myself.

I pray that the world and the plot and the characters are enough to redeem the entire experience. To be fair, everything we've seen of this has been pretty neat. And that's the main appeal of Final Fantasy so there may be hope.

Still would've preferred if they just copypasted Kingdom Hearts gameplay like Nomura wanted to.
>>
>>337969732
I'm gonna assume that >>337950709 meant Tokyo team, since they did both KH2 and XV and Osaka had nothing to do with either.

And the answer I think is Tabata not having a clear and distinct vision of what the combat should be. It feels like he's keeping the combat in because he has to when he'd really just like to make a movie about four buddies on a road trip. The fact that the core mechanics completely changed every six months since Tabata took over seems like proof of that.

>>337969983
KH2 still felt crisp and responsive at the very beginning. The problem with XV is how floaty and disjointed everything feels. It doesn't feel like each button press corresponds 1-to-1 to an action on screen. Instead when you press a button it puts you in an automated stance until you do something different.

>>
>>337971737
You do realize ED purposely left out a ton of features like aerial combat, weapon switching, magic etc, right? The core system itself didn't change.
>>
>>337971884
That's because you're mashing the button while Sora's already in the middle of an action. Each action Sora takes (attacking, spells, items, dodging, guarding, whatever) is tied directly to a single button press that happens immediately as soon as you press the button, unless you're already committed to another action, in which case it'll usually buffer it and execute it as soon as your current action ends. If you're just mashing the attack button than Sora will attack nonstop until his combo ends, but you can also just do one press per attack/spell/whatever.
>>
>>337972859
But can't you do the same in XV? You can keep mashing/holding attack but then press defend as soon as an enemy attacks. I don't get the issue.
>>
>>337972845
>The core system itself didn't change.
But that's wrong, the way you perform attacks did change, instead of using the ED system you now have access to a single weapon's entire moveset, instead of only having part of it like in ED.

Weapon skills are also more like an action game now, instead of scrolling through a menu and choosing the skill, each skill is tied to a specific weapon and button input.

It's not much, but they clearly changed the system.
>>
>>337935108

It looks alright but it still looks like a downgrade from duscae/early footage.

Here's your (You).

>>337972845
The basic button layout changed.
The Crush/Vanquish/Ravage mechanic was completely dropped in favor of traditional weapon switching.
The weapon skills from ED are completely different, if they're still there at all.
Armiger was given its own meter instead of being tied to MP.
Even ED to ED2.0 changed things like how lock-on works and how dodging is handled.

And those are just the changes between the public demos. You're delusional if you think the gameplay's been completely consistent since E3 2013.
>>
>>337973632
>all move with too much fucking weight to their animations

Really? I've seen some people complain it looks floaty and weightless.

I played the Plat demo and it didn't feel tedious to me, barring the ridiculously low I-frames on the dodge roll which basically forces you to hold square to defend, which I hate.

No in ED it used the crush, ravage, vanquish, counter and descent system which is still there for every weapon, the only difference was in ED you set a weapon for each part while in PD each weapon you manually switch to has their own crush, ravage, vanquish counter and descend attacks, that's simply a result of manual weapon switching but the core underlying system is there, weapon skills are on directional inputs now and there was some of those in ED, now you choose party commands from a menu so you can make Gladio do tempest the same way you would have in ED when doing it for Noctis, while doing Tempest now on Noctis flows better because it's directional input based now and can seamlessly blend into part of a combo instead of being a separate attack. The core is the crv system which is still there.
>>
>>337973551
FF fanbase are really triggered when people say their series have terrible gameplay. And I agree with that.

Answer what? You say you like shitty games like XV, I said that that's fine with me.
>>
>>337973757
They already confirmed you can remap button layout during an ATR over a year ago.

Crush, Ravage, Vanquish is still there and manual weapon switching was always planned, it was purposely left out of ED just like magic, aerial combat, party commands, equipment etc, they flat out stated over 50% of the battle system was left out of ED.

Weapons skills are directional inputs now and work seamless with combo instead of separate menu command, while party commands do what the weapon did before but on party members.
They already said during the ATR last year that Armiger wouldhave it's own Guage in the full game and howit was in ED wasn't how it actually worked.
ED2 swapped out warp dodge for dodge roll which is something you'll be able to do with the full game anyway since they confirmed dodge roll warp dodge are part of the leveling upgrade system.

It looks better in the sense that it will be an infinitely better game.

But yes, the art style and presentation in P5 looks a million times better than the grafix of XV.

Defend this. Please someone defend this.

>B-but, it makes sense within the confines of the story!

If the story bottlenecks the entire main playable cast into looking like a bunch of faggy boyband rejects from the early 2000's then I'm afraid the story itself needs to be changed. That doesn't excuse it, and it probably wasn't any good to begin with.
>>
>>337976443
You really think it'll play any different than P3/P4? Just adding 2 more elements and a gun doesn't change much. Plot progress will always be terrible in any Persona game. Story is VN-tier writing. MC is literally for self-insert. Characters are literal anime troupes. There's nothing fresh from it. Literally the COD of JRPGs.

>>337976443
Personally, a big part of why I'm looking forward to FFXV is because it has more potential to surprise. I already know the song and dance I am gonna get with Persona 5; I already played Persona 3 and Persona 4.

That's not to say P5 won't do things unique to this entry, but those are tweaks more than anything. I personally can't point to any game like FFXV that has ever released. It could very well be shit, but it already has so much to look forward to.

Try Kingdom Hearts, but that game didn't force you to only use Sora.

There's much more to FFXV than just its combat. And really, I see FFXV matching up with KH2 by the end.

Doesn't change the fact that it rehashes everything from it's previous titles. But sure, you fucks ever give a damn is about self-inserting as the MC and imagining fucking the “best girl” in the series.
>>
>>337977870
Yeah XIII-2 and LR both recycle everything heavily and have only 2 cgi scenes. Budgets of these games are literally less than a 3rd of the XIII might have been, and they are sequels of a mainline, not an actual mainline.

Clusterfuck circus of autism and shit design vs actually well designed characters who fit their setting.

XV cast are without a doubt the best designed FF characters, only good FF7 designs are the side characters like Shinra.

You're right. The FF games are all about its brilliant narrative and never have any distracting females.

It's going to be shit. This was their chance to fix everything wrong with FF7 but of course they're not going to do it, they're just going to add even more pointless bullshit that will only detract from the quality of the original. Not like it matters though, since it's guaranteed to do well thanks to insane hype and marketing, casuals who are attracted to anything flashy and shiny, and fanboys who just can't let go of their nostalgia. Now this might sound like I'm overreacting, but just look at Square Enix's track record over the last decade, especially the way they handled FF7's story and characters, and try to tell me that the remake will be any different.
>>
>>337976443
No it doesn't at all. Everything we've seen for XV shits all over that hot trash Persona.

Yeah honestly, who would want unique and varied designs in a FANTASY game?
>>
>>337976234
I'm referring to the ravage input like here:>>337976532

Especially given that it makes up the majority of ground combos, thats a big ass fucking problem.

Hell what is the advantage of tapping compared to holding circle for attacking?

>>337978041
You only use Sora in KH1.

>I believe this project will be the realization of a vision we have pursued for a long time.

An open world next gen FF RPG, with realistic settings and characters infused with action combat and recurring FF Themes and Yoko Shimomura as composer. Anyone who thinks the game is shit can fuck off. This is genius, and has yet to ever be executed.
>>
>>337978856
FF went to shit ever since they started focusing on realism.

At least we have Yoko Shimomura as a composer.

Glad to know Nomura's taking lessons from a decade-old game
>>
>>337978325
You're starting to run out of things to say aren't you? And yes, FF have better narrative than an otaku-pandering VN-tier story that can easily be mistaken for a cheap anime game. Even Hyouka is more interesting than P4. And no, despite having females as your party member, FF’s doesn't have the “dating mechanic” that you Persona-fags only really care about.
>>
>>337979021
12 did it pretty well
13 did it pretty bad
What's your point ?
>>
>>337978658
There isn't any, so I don't see what the problem is?

Like, if you tap in KH, you'll get the same combo over and over again. If you tap in XV, you will also get the same combo over and over again. The difference is that each strike in Ravage flows to the next, but what difference does it actually make in functionality?

There's plenty to shit on FF for, trust me. It's a lot funnier for you to pass along judgement by assuming you know the reasons every person plays the games in the first place.

Even if the games were nothing but dating sims, they'd be a hell of a lot more engaging than 'local faggot saves world, kills god'

FF used to be the gold standard, and those days are long gone. This new one looks to be a cluttered mess of broken promises and a decade of misinformation.

Yeah I especially love the way the games focus on some whiny androgynous faggot surrounded by people who always love him and think he's so cool and together they discover the true meaning of friendship. Totally not animu at all.
>>
>>337979281
Having one playable character isn't inherently a bad thing. With the story and type of character Noctis is, it makes other characters pointless to play as. Noctis can do everything they can do.
>>
>>337979318
>FF used to be the gold standard

Nah it really wasn't. Even back during the SNES days it prioritized story and melodrama over good gameplay. If anything Dragon Quest should be the gold standard.
>>
>>337979603

DQ was too grindy for most people. Only the nips liked it, and that's why they're all fucking salarymen
>>
>>337978610
Noctis alone can do more than entire parties of every single other FF and has more depth and input to his combat than any other mainline FF, and you can also input menu commands for your other party members where they have their own ATB bar too, magic works fine with extreme quality in its use from targeting specific enemies to igniting sections of the terrain to inflict fire damage by burning down shacks or grass, to freezing over lakes and completely freezing enemies, to using rain to conduct electricity, to breaking mechs spilling their oil everywhere then using fire to create massive explosions, you have instant targeting with L1+O, also there is a magic synthesis system and ring magic which is entirely separate from that.
Gameplay is 30FPS, recent footage confirms.
There hasn't been any prerendered promo materials passed of as gameplay, nice lies.

Good job showing everyone how retarded you are.
>>
>>337979706
It has a more consistent quality than FF overall, hence why. It may not have reached FF's highs, but it certainly never reached FF's lows either.

That's not really something to be proud of.
>>
>>337938697
A new generation of FF fans was born with FF XIII and there's absolutely nothing you can do about it.

FFXV is shaping up to be a masterpiece, every new title they bring something new to the table based on the hardware capabilities. If it comes to PC it will be glorious, they have surely taken their time and I seriously doubt this game will turn out to be a disappointment. Day 1 buy to save FF.

We're never getting another new Final Fantasy game until all these guys are fired/retired or it's bought by another company. FF is destined to be what Star Wars was under George Lucas, 30 years of everyone hating their product till finally somebody makes an actual FF and then people will be cheering at the departure of the people who butchered it for so long. It's obvious the FF devs don't want to make FF, so why don't they call it something else? It seems like Bravely Default has inherited FF's legacy, while the main series has mutated to become something else entirely.

From left to right

Guy 1 is wearing silk bomber jacket, fitted track suit pants with stripe down the side, sneakers. Short combed over hair.

Guy 2 is wearing full sleeve leather jacket, plain undershirt, fitted tracksuit pants with stripe down the side, sneakers. Short combed backward hair.

Guy 3 is wearing full sleeve leather jacket, fitted skinny jeans and silver dress shoes. Short bleached blonde flat sideswept fringe hair.

Guy 4 is wearing full sleeve leather jacket half white half black, scarf, grey undershirt, white skinny jeans and dress shoes. Short parted comb over hair.

In comparison what XV guys are wearing is nothing alike.

Noctis wearing short sleeved military coat, military cropped cargoes, military combat boots, arm guard, printed T. The official website confirms this. Hair is medium length hair with flat uneven spiked bangs at the front and spiked upward and outward at the back.

Gladio is wearing short sleeved leather coat, pants, belt, wrist guard and heavy duty shoes. Hair is slick back mullet and shaved on the sides, has short beard stubble.

Prompto is wearing biker vest, red long flannel vest, printed singlet, white belt, bandanna on his arm, gun gloves, brown printed pants, boots with white cuff. Has blonde spiked up bang and long fringe while short at the back.

Ignis is wearing a blazer, button up shirt, belt, driving gloves, glasses, jeans and snake skin shoes. Hair is swept back and stands upright and tall on the bangs.

Cor is wearing a formal military general coat, suit pants, boots with high cuff, beret, layered undershirt. Has buzzcut and chinstrap beard.

They are nothing alike you retard. Now here comes the denial and you spouting "hurr autism xD!?" even though you were proven wrong.

I hope it was all a ruse or something. Having a forced romance path always takes me out of FFs. Like I can deal with it, but it's such a slog when they do that.

Welcome to Final Fantasy idiot. Where developers give a different experience of an RPG every single time.

Plus Toriyama and Kitase have both made turn based combat games. FF6, FF7, FF8 for Kitase. FF10/10-2 and FF13/13-2 for Toriyama.

Tabata and Nomura has worked on action games like Crisis Core, Type-0, Versus 13 aka FF15, FF7 Remake.

>and they've done it for so long they've created this melting pot of people that fight all the time. In the end Final Fantasy rightfully belongs to the turn based community and they should have never had to share with other demographics in the first place.

But most Final Fantasy games have been turn based. FF1-FF10 and FF13. That is 11 out of the 15 being turn based of some form.

>Good gameplay
But it is good

>final fantasy style
Who cares about "final fantasy style". Final fantasy has always just been the name Square slaps on their next big game

>Uncharted looks better
So you're telling me that a linear 8 hour game looks better than a huge open world game with a long story? STOP THE PRESSES

No it isn't.

Final Fantasy fans.

Final Fantasy has been known for its cutting edge graphics for quite some time. For another game to beat them in this category is rather damning.

Will buy for PS4 and when it releases on PC. What is pathetic is the nu-males here using female shaming tactic calling the group gay or faggots because it doesn't feature female characters that they can kneel and kiss their feet. Fuck do I hate beta cucks.

It still looks really fucking good and like I said, OPEN WORLD VS LINEAR you dense motherfucker. U4 looks better than 99.5% of games anyway. FF has been known for good graphics since the the ps1, yes, but not as THE benchmark for graphics. It asn't the best looking series on the ps2 (god of war, mgs3, etc,) and it wasn't the best on ps3 wither (mgs4, uncharted, the last of us) Ps1 is debatable too.

KH2 Is probably one of the best looking ps2 games the fuck you mean god of war? MGS3 has good character models for the time but all else looks ugly.

It is good.

It has FF style everywhere.

XV is fully dynamic with real time lighting, day/night and dynamic weather system on global illumination in an open world action RPG full of gigantic monsters, magic, party based, aerial combat in a massive 50 hour game that is the best looking one of this scale and tech.

U4 is a baked 8 hour setpiece corridor simulator where you just point and shoot humans.

They removed hitstops.They need to bring it back at least a little bit to add to the feeling of hitting something.

No it isn't.

No it doesn't.

>party based

Wrong.

>U4 is shit

And yet it's still going to be GOTY

And that's a problem because....?
It works, doesn't it?

I miss the old times where devs spend time to cover up flaws.
They have to be real creative to present the game beautifully with techs limitations.
(though most of it result in having a good art style, which is a good thing, because it will last forever)

It's not about "Hey, we did the best we can in this certain way".
If they can't make a great performance out of what they are planning to do,
perhaps try to cut down some stuffs and change some things.
Else, everyone would be pushing 3D models with millions of polygons, and cry "we are doing our best in this tech!" when it's running 3fps.
>>
>>337994517
You're acting as if every developer in the world doesn't do this. It's in a bigger scale now, sure, but it's imperative to make any game run because of hardware bottleneck. That hasn't changed.
>>
>>337993171
Notice how you didn't counter anything?
>>
>>337994919
Okay but I'm still right.
>>
>>337994727
>That hasn't changed.
Really?
all i saw are games with plenty of graphical problems, especially clipping issues.
And don't forget some games that sacrifice anti alliasing just to push more polygons into a scene.
And that result in eye sores.

I'm not saying every devs doesn't do it.
like UC4, they did it and it worked damn fine.
Nintendo do that a lot too.
And most 2D games do it as well.

But don't forget there's still games like borderland that thought their job is all done by simply throwing in a cel shading shader.

No you aren't because XV is good.

It's FF style as fuck because it's literally a story about the crystals, and the kingdom with the crystal magic at war with a magitek empire with airships and dragoons, a plague killing the world and gods meddling in human affairs, princes, kings, princesses, emporers, summoners, monster and summon designs using the original Amano and Nomura design from ff1-7, the art director and character designer being from FF6, 7, 8 , 10 etc, world map to explore that is a mix of classic medieval fantasty elements like the classic FF, magitek like 6 and urban society and cities like 7 and 8, you have vehicles to travel the world map just like the classic from chocobo to boats to cars to train to airship. It's FF as fuck.

You literally have a party that you travel around as, you level and progress them all and you can give them all commands during combat with their own ATB bar. The system is called AXB because it's a cross between Noctis action RPG system and the other party members ATB menu commands. Even the ever changing combat is FF as fuck as the point of FF is changing and trying new things for the sake of it like the combat.

Only people that care about uncharted are Sonyfags.

I'm right you're wrong nothing you say will change that fact.

That's a strange way of saying "bro trip."

>You literally have a party

A party that's forced into playing the role of second fiddle to Noctis. It's just lazy design to not allow the player to play everyone in your party.

>Sonyfags

Square wishes they still had Sony as a stockholder. Thanks XIV.

>Nothing you say will ever change my mind.

People who are dumb enough to say something like this aren't even worth debating. You basically just admitted that you will never admit you're wrong even when you know you're wrong.
