If SE's development history is anything to go by, Nomura's ambition + PS4's hardware finally graced us with this beautiful game. Being the Director of XV, Nomura, has said that the characters of Final Fantasy Versus XIII (XV) will be the most realistic and believable in the Final Fantasy series yet and they will talk and behave like people from the real world. This clearly indicates the need for the PS4's advanced hardware in order to achieve that level of realism in terms of graphics and AI. If u watch the trailer again you would notice theres an emphasis on those moments with a change in the characters facial expressions. for instance the father n son moment at the dinner table when Regis' pokes his tongue out along with subtleties in eyebrows, forehead lines n the nasalabial folds then Noctis grinning n with his eyes then the automated mouth movements when he lifts the spoon to his mouth the detail in animation as it molds to fit it.
Btw that father n son moment..its um a lil obvious what the creators are trying to establish there and what will ultimately happen.."A act of love by the last king." Just my speculation.
-Theres alot of competing political sects(Niflheim n possibly Solheim,Tenebrae,Accordo) that are intent on wiping out the Lucis family that Noctis originates from. Their reason?? The "final crystal" that Noctis' family apparently holds/controls.
-As we saw in the previous trailers Noctis' eyes are normally blue but will turn red only on some special occasion. Triggered on by something. Maybe the "light" and memories of the dead that are aligned with it-"Eyes that see the light of expiring souls"- that only He and Stella can see.
O_O I'll stop.
-Id like to know a bit more about Noctis' friends(not too much). Ignis is already one of my favourites. He is speaking at 2:01 hes much closer to the Prince being childhood friends than any of the other three seen before.
-The game's combat system is a mix of Crisis Core, Devil May Cry, God Of War, Kingdom Hearts and Revengeance. Great looking environments that actually seem to serve a purpose, way more fluid combat, and more grounded design. Noctis also appears to be very maneuverable and posesses the ability to teleport which helps in his execution of melee and magic attacks. I loved Noctis teleporting on the sides of his castle to drive off the soldiers invading from above.
Haha I squealed when I heard Reno.
I'll be playing the Japanese version instead.
And can I just say it feels so good how one of the remaining members of Squaresoft single-handedly pwned that entire conference(gameswise) with BOTH HIS OWN games >XDDD
Heh..Niflheim..Reminds of the name of a hometown that was burnt down by someone very close to my heart..
