orochinagi Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 So... there's supposedely a demo out (haven't checked it yet) and there's some game footage now... Can only say i'm impressed with summons (spoiler below for those who want to see it): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I3N_cAiwhWw Kotaku already has some stuff about how the demo plays... Quote
The_Count Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Yeah it comes with FF type 0, waiting for mine to download. That summon is god damn glorious! Quote
Cyrillej1 Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 I'm gonna get mine downloading ahh, can't wait to try it. The graphics look amazing from the previews I've seen of it so far. The gameplay looks like it's similar to Kingdom Hearts almost? Well, I'll get to try it soon and see for myself! Quote
orochinagi Posted March 19, 2015 Author Posted March 19, 2015 Is it only available with Type-0? Here it's only getting released tomorrow Quote
Cyrillej1 Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 I played it like two days ago~ I think I have mixed feelings about it so far, but I'd still be willing to buy/give the full game a try once it comes out since I've tended to love all the FF games. I just didn't like FF13, so probably why I'm a bit hesitant of their future releases. First Impression: Woooww~~ what amazing graphics! It looks so real, felt like I was watching FF: Advent Children even while playing. The battle really does kinda reminds me of Kingdom Hearts. So it's not a turn-based battle system, but a real-time action adventure RPG. I think the main char looks cool^^ love his black hair, light eyes appearance. What I'm bummed about: -Doesn't seem like you get full control over the other characters, only can use the main character. -No Magic? Every action requires MP use, such as defending/techniques, and warping. The main char has a warping sword that teleports him to where he throws it instantly, and his weapons change when he attacks (depending on combo setup of weapons, I think?) ...but it's not really magic. There's summoning..but, I don't think it's the same and don't rly like the requirements to use it (character HP->0). -Giant Map, Lots of walking (if anyone's played DA3, exploration is similar..quest selection for marker on map)... No compass, omg ugh..so I had to keep opening up map to see where I was. -All male characters. I wonder if they'll have any female allies to switch in, or if it's only these 4 characters throughout the game (that may be kinda boring). -Hordes of monsters, being messy jumping around all over the screen, taking a long time to take them all out... I hope they will give better AOE skills or something in the actual full game since there's no aoe magic to handle hordes of mobs better... the only sword skills available were mostly limited to single enemies and so it can take awhile to take them all out. -After dying/game over, restart at a checkpoint..have to re-watch a cutscene over, can't skip. --That's my thoughts about the demo part at least and what was available. Maybe the full game will address some of the problems I thought about it. rainsismyfav 1 Quote
rainsismyfav Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 All male characters #real? Not sure if I would even.... and can't skip scenes? Might be too much for my attention span rofl. Quote
Getsuya Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 http://www.siliconera.com/2014/09/22/final-fantasy-xv-will-feel-like-group-guys-going-road-trip/ Also http://www.siliconera.com/2014/10/02/final-fantasy-xv-wont-let-change-characters-battle/ On the one hand 'road trip with my bros' doesn't exactly capture the majesty one would expect from a FF plot, on the other hand good action RPGs are few and far between so I'll probably get one of my friends to buy it and play it at their place. Squeenix seems to be very over-reactionary to customer complaints, I mean let's look at their recent decisions FF13 comes out Fans: It's too linear! All the characters but Fang are horrible! Square: Alright let's make a super open-ended game and... wait who was Fang? Was she the female Cloud? No? The loli? No? Oh she must have been that other loli (Serah). Okay we'll make a game about her. FF13-2 comes out Fans: Well the open-endedness was good but... oh God the characters! Why? Could you please give us an FF with a main character we like? Square: Well obviously that means a game about Lightning. FF13-3 comes out Fans: WHY ARE YOU SO HORRIBLE AT FEMALE CHARACTERS!!? Square: Oh, okay, we'll make our next FF a sausage-fest then Fans: As long as Cid has boobs! Square: Your wish is our command. rainsismyfav 1 Quote
Cyrillej1 Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 sausage-fest lol... I don't think I really had problems with any of their female characters... just FF13 gameplay was bad to me. Quote
