It's honestly shit, everything square dose to localization this game for North America makes the game look fucking shitter than it actually is and it's because they have this idea that Americans only like seeing action styled stuff and it's probably correct but god ammit fuck Americans and their shit taste 2bh pisses me the fuck off.

I guess the reason everything is so terrible is because they picked up development scraps from years ago (just like Blizzard did with Overwatch) and finished it.

The big difference is Blizzard is way better at marketing and has many Blizzdrones.

shitty FF games has also many drones but I doubt they have 10 million dollaridoos drones (their goal)

japanese version is only better for 2 reasons:
1) it has the logo backdrop, making the title of the game look nicer
2) it has a semblence of a journey attached to it. the american one is just posing for no reason (no enemies around them, but let's act like we're about to do something)

they're both lacking in the environment aspect, though. both environments on the boxes look boring. should be a campfire in the woods at night with stars in the background or something; something comfy looking.
>>
>>344217060
Well why do you bitch about everything?
>>
>>344214813
It's actually horrible. It looks like it was a larger render that got cropped to fit the box dimensions without any thought for visual design.

It actually flies in the face of every single commonly accepted principle of composition.
>>
>>344216337
This.

Like everyone knows there is going to be action ahead of us so they make a cover showcasing the good times but no, Americans need action First and Foremost because they are bastards with no taste for the finer things in life.

Why can't we get the Japanese cover? I don't understand this crap

but that's objectively wrong, 5 is vastly better than 3 merely from gameplay mechanics, the story as a whole is a bonus since 3's whole deal with Xande is extremely short and stuff like Hein's castle is just filler.

There is fucking nothing to catch their eye on, the composition is completely generic, the logo is fucking tiny, it showcases extremely little about the game and doesn't invoke any strong emotions like the original cover did. It's basically generic as fucking possible and you cant even tell what game it is until you peel your eyes and search for the miniscule logo.

It is a terrible cover and it'll have terrible marketing

>>344219214
IV did a good job of introducing a lot of the series' narrative staples, but looking back it wasn't that surprising at all.
most of the surprising stuff has been done better in later games and most of its shock value was cheap, such as all the throwaway deaths of Cid/Yang/Palom-Porom that didn't actually die, along with the whole deal about the moon being literally asspulled at the last minute.

Do you consider IX a spinoff too just because it started out as one?
>>
Anything that isn't a white background + logo or Amano art is shit. But the NA one is especially bad because there's literally nothing of note to see on it besides three guys awkwardly posing and one guy jumping off a bike. The lines drawn don't guide your eyes anywhere interesting, partly because there is nothing interesting going on at all.

The Japanese one at least conveys a sense of uncertainty/friendship/brotherhood and implies a lengthy journey lies ahead. It's not bad really but artwork is always preferable to CG shit. Simplicity is an art and the Japanese cover masterfully applies it and the NA one - as is typical - doesn't.

It was done better in VI maybe VII but you have to stop counting after that. Don't tell me X has a better story.
>>
>>344219825
The NA cover is similar to XIII, X, VII, and IX

In many ways with the main character holding a sword and being similar to IX having the full party there, the gods on the top is literal icing on the cake.

I remember when I was younger the X cover always enough to get me interested to buy it and I fucking did shit is full of mystery and in comfy water.

Shitposting aside I really do feel this is going to be a good entry to the series and I'll probably sink a shitload of hours into it. The story also sounds intriguing and a nice call back to the earlier days of the franchise, focusing on monarchy politics and magical crystals. Its refocus on towns, minigames, and side content is only a good thing after the boring, if pretty, atmosphere in xiii.

What technical problems with the party AI already look like they're in the process of being fixed, and the handful of framerate issues are acceptable, provided they're not constant or overly common.

That's my two cents at least.

FFXV just looks every bit like it's going to end up a bloated over-marketed multimedia project mess that doesn't actually come together into a good game but boy will it have one hell of a collectors edition and a franchise record for commercial tie-ins. I'm not sure exactly when Sony started meddling in the production of the game demanding this and that like they clearly did but it probably happened several years ago behind closed doors, possibly even some time in the 2000's.

Not interested in giving you a synopsis of X just for you to shoot it down. XIII is insultingly badly written and has terrible story and lore, even compared to a "less intelligent" FF like X.

I didn't mind the lore or story of XIII, but the character development was really poor and the pacing wasn't much better. The gameplay is what really made me dislike it though.

I can't believe how blah the mainline console FF's have been for the past generation as a result of FFXIII being some kind of trilogy. FFXV looks like it's going to just continue more of the pseudo gameplay but glitzy as all fuck graphics stuff from that one and I really think people who plunked down for the huge collectors edition set are going to regret it if they don't find some way to scalp it. I just really don't think it's going to be much of a game similar to XIII the way things are looking and how it's being promoted.

>>344220263

It's definitely getting a massive marketing push but it's hard to gauge just how genuinely hyped people really are and how much of it is marketing buzz. Like for example I really love how hard they're trying to push this car tie-in thing like it's the coolest thing in the world but I barely give a fuck. How's the overall gameplay? That's what people should be caring about but will probably be to blinded by hype and "look over there" marketing tactics to distract from probably mediocre at absolute best gameplay until it's too late.

of course it is, it's directly related to the writing, which is the cornerstone of any RPG that focuses on telling a story.

Ha. I'd think Disagea is probably superior to Agarest but I'd also agree they really belong into the same grouping. Really trashy, dumb shit along the lines of Neptunia and such. Granted, Disgaea is way older but it's basically the precursor.
>>
>>344222152
There isn't any hype for this game. It's already divisive between FF fans, the average chad will buy it if it has an overwhelming support like Dark Souls had for example. I can already see the 7 and 8, I can see the major review sites shitting on it.

It's going to bomb hard and you should expect this FFXV-kun.

It looks better but it's hard to get past the fact that for some reason three of them are walking down the road next to a car that clearly has enough room for them with the big guy even carrying stuff that should be in the trunk.

Definitely adds to the road trip atmosphere they're wanting to bring. Course it's better.

Box art (or any other promo nonsense) doesn't bother me. It's the game itself that needs to be judged. So far it's not looking bad. Certainly an improvement over Duscae.

A PS2 era texture.
>>
>>344222642

Dude they teamed up with the shilliest anime producer for a CGI movie with big fantasy and Hollywood names for the English dub, a 4 part short OVA anime thing, some sort of car deal and have clearly paid a lot of video game beat sites a lot of money to hype the ever loving fuck out of it. It's getting at least the sort of marketing push a big Activision/Blizzard or EA Games title would get and by far the biggest in franchise history.

Also major review sites aren't going to outright shit on it because they're guaranteed getting paid money to right publicity. If it's bad smaller ones might, but the big ones would sooner dance around the subject.

Also I'm not a FFXV fanboy or shill or whatever, I just see how this industry and it's various apparatuses work in the 21st century as opposed to just seeing and hearing what I want and you'd have to be living under a rock or just not know what marketing is to think it's not being hyped like crazy.

this whole boxart is screwed up.
the characters are all pumped up to fight nothing, the logo can't get lowered or else it will cover the eidolon's face and the eidolons are useless since none of the trailers talk about them, it's a fucking spoiler that's ultimately pointless and will only make sense after you've played it.

>I don't like X character because he's "edgy"/annoying
That kind of shit isn't really valid criticism, it's just an opinion. Valid criticism would be to examine (possibly conflicting) character motivations, actions and lore and such, not whether you think a character is particularly cool or not, or whatever, because then Auron is always the best character. And surprise, that's the most beloved character in the game.

It's kinda like criticising NGE for having an indecisive, depressed kid as a main character instead of someone who constantly improves at everything. You can't criticise a story or characters based on what you feel they should've or should not have been.

>You can't criticise a story or characters based on what you feel they should've or should not have been.
No, you see that's the very foundation of criticism.

Complaining about Shinji in NGE is dumb because his whiny nature is integral to the entire point of the show. You can still criticise that point itself or the way it was implemented, but that is not at all analogous to what we're talking about here.
>>
>>344224735
It won't. The day 1 bullshit showcase they did a few days ago demonstrated more combat and the group AI was already much better.

Considering FF fucking 13 sold seven million copies, it's pretty obvious this is gonna make a mint.
>>
>>344224735
Like the fags that killed themselves over TPP? You are going to be more angry against the game (and SE) than sad, trust me.

>>344224479
It's obvious you're new as fuck if you think the two were held in the same regard. Neptunia is popular amongst certain groups here, but that doesn't mean that it's a well regarded game. The same goes for Halo, which also had pregular threads back in the day.

Disgaea is casual weeb bait with grinding out the ass.
