The demo's alright, but I could've done without young Noctis; only getting to play around with the actual mechanics during a single fight is lame.

I got two things from rewatching that Versus trailer: the old battle portraits were hilarious, and also that the last ten years must've been pretty weird for the JP voice actors. They were getting called in every other year or so for quite a while just to voice excerpts from a constantly changing script until development got properly on track a couple years ago. e: Though speaking of old trailers, the oddest thing is that stuff seems to have significantly changed even from the 2013 re-announcement. Looking back, it's a bunch of scrapped Versus-era CG alongside possibly-prerendered gameplay that's incompatible with the current version of the story.

HHammond posted:I haven't really been paying that much attention to FFXV. Are these four guys the only playable characters in the game or are they going to reveal more later? They're the four main characters, but Noctis is the only one you play as.

As far as it's possible to tell just from the trailers, it appears the only things that survived from Versus are some of the character designs and names, the modern fantasy theme, and the Lucis-Niffelheim conflict.

XenoX is a fun game, but it doesn't have much in the way of a main storyline.

After XenoX I'll never feel entirely satisfied with openworld RPGs that have tiny jumps and harsh fall damage.

They isn't really comparable. Spirits Within was a big-budget theatrical flop, while this was created for the sake of promotion using CG on par with what they regularly use in their games, like Advent Children. It's not cheap, I'm sure, but it's not a threat to the stability of the company.

ImpAtom posted:It just genuinely feels like because he's the most recognizable name Square-Enix has left the full brunt of every criticism is leveled at him (even for games he never worked on or barely worked on!) I wonder how much of that comes down entirely to all the title screens with "Character Design by Tetsuta Nomura" across the bottom.

Nanomashoes posted:Tabata is threatening legal action against people who spoiled the game because the ending is so mind numbingly stupid it's making people cancel their pre-orders. The review embargo ends a day before the game comes out. Square knows it's bad, guys, and they're trying to keep you from knowing. lol

I said come in! posted:Here is where the game was FFXV back in 2013 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IcUSXub_ypU almost none of this made it into the final version, we even see the Leviathan fight is almost entirely different from what we got. Makes "The would we purport to know is ever-changing, ending as we speak." pretty apt, then.

SectumSempra posted:In general RPGS are like the worst at difficulty, because unlike most genres, difficulty only has 1 answer, grind more. SMT games dodge around that a bit with some combat systems. Eh, the problem is more with communicating the options available other than grinding. For example, a boss being vulnerable to a crippling status effect, but most of the rest of the game teaching players that status spells aren't worth the trouble.

ImpAtom posted:
Which always seemed odd to me. In most games grinding is incredibly tedious, more than enough to put me off compared to just reevaluating my options. The exceptions are weird stuff like The Last Story where a lategame repeatable encounter summoned crazy weak enemies that kept making Zael level for some reason.

Onmi posted:FFXV had the dual problem of NEEDING more time and not being able to get more time because idiots were already going "Ten years in development!" That's the bed SE made when they dressed XV up as a continuation of the Versus project rather than cutting their losses at some point in vXIII's non-development.

fridge corn posted:As for the writing, I guess Witcher 3 is well written for a video game but theres a long way to go for video game writing in general before even approaching anything resembling "good" Plenty of games have good writing. For instance, Ghost Trick is the best pet movie ever made.

Or do sane and have a consistent genre and set of game mechanics to iterate and play around with so they aren't starting from zero every game on top of all their other production issues.

Overleveling issues aside, withholding earned XP until resting plus being able to bank it further for multipliers is a neat idea.

When you stand still time stops and you can target and scan enemies. It's not that big a difference, especially since Ignis has abilities that automatically target weaknesses and there are only three elements anyway.

It's general AAA game triangulation. Open-world+rpg or rpg elements is the thing right now.

Cloud the Cat posted:Yeah you're probably right, I'm probably just feeling what everyone else seems to be saying that nothing is really shown very well in game or they just have one cut scene with a few sentences and it's like..uh, is that it? Pretty much. Dude's story is largely resolved through a bunch of letters lying around his corpse for some reason. On that note, where does the Ifrit-Starscourge stuff come from? I've seen it mentioned in the thread but no idea where people discovered it. Certainly not the game as far as I can tell. Motto fucked around with this message at 01:15 on Jan 30, 2017 |
