C'mon Square, you need to do a collaboration. You got our girl exercising. This is so free.

If FFXV is anything to go by, we'll get JP dubs on the international release. If KH3 is anything to go by we won't.

I'm leaning to the former tbh.
SE has been pretty good about including Japanese voiceover options in recent years, KH aside (and even that could just be because of Disney, who knows). I'm sure this will have the option, at least as free DLC.

They're really going out of their way this time to make Aeris pretty and I gotta say, it's working

I've been been much of a Final Fantasy guy. If anything, I never got into the games, even 6. I know I'm insane. However, this remake genuinely looks jawdropping. I'm legitimately stoked for it and am ecstatic to see the fundamental gameplay mechanics focus on action and strategy instead of the turn-based formula that alienated me in the first place. I really think this is gonna be one of the best games of the generation.

hng.

Also eng dub forever. Don't want to ruin my memories with extreme derivative jp pop culture sounding Aerith.

That was fuckin incredible. I can't comprehend that square seems to nail this so damn much. My favorite game is getting the Remake it deserves!!

I'm predicting that it's two blue ray discs because of the millions of cg cutscenes.

I don't mind.

Woah, that was a lot to process! I look forward to people breaking the trailer down+gameplay details, because I'm sure there was tons of details I missed. What we've seen of the game thus far continues to impress.

The new Soldier character is an interesting addition with potential - despite my fears of the remake treading into Compilation territory, it isn't a bad idea to have an additional formidable foe for Avalanche to deal with, as I'm presuming/hoping we won't fight Sephiroth in the first game of the remake. It was nice to see some old familiar friends in Ifrit and Shiva, too, both are looking great. I wasn't expecting to see Don Corneo. President Shinra's design looks great. (Had to laugh at Reno's very open shirt.) Aerith looked absolutely stunning in her dress! Loved the Cloud+squats mini-game, and fuck yeah, pull-ups with Tifa!

Speaking of Tifa, her new English VA is still so goddamn good. I'm really enjoying Cloud's new VA, too. The new English VA for Rude sounds great, less sure on Reno. Even Reno in Japanese sounds much more high-pitched than usual, which was really jarring - I can't tell if it's Keiji Fujiwara or not.

The last shot of the trailer was a gut punch! Gorgeous and heartbreaking all at once.

At any rate, looking forward to some trailer breakdowns!

They actually made Reno look cool as hell. Man, I cannot wait for this game to drop.

They are hellbent on making sure that Wall Market Aerith looks as drop dead gorgeous as possible.

I approve of this school of thought.

Oh, and the game looks just as good.

So...Death Stranding this fall and then The Last Of Us Part 2 in February (rumored) and this game in March?
Is this the biggest back-to-back exclusives we've seen this generation yet?

Holy shit, the last PS4 year is going to be crazy isn't it?

I loved the squats minigame in this trailer. I'm happy they are keeping the goofiness of the original.

Something i just realized is that the scene with Aerith in that dress with Cloud and the fireworks going off ; didnt that happen in the Golden Saucer? Which means the game will at least continue on past Midgard? Or am i misremembering the story?

Game of generation contender easily. For me of course. I know how some of you get sensitive.

Love everything about that trailer, the voice acting, the graphics, the summons

I am going to watch it another 200 times to absorb everything in that trailer.

Not to be that dude but what happened to the English dub?! The line direction is Advent Children level or below and so is the delivery at times. I've never had a problem with Square's voice acting until now, but I might have to go subs unless something drastic changes.

Everything else was amazing. The Japanese version of the trailer had me in tears.

Also, what was the thing Aerith was fighting that was in a chariot? New lightning Summon?
You're right about the line delivery! It feels like they recorded them specifically for the trailer, the delivery doesn't feel like it matches any greater context of the scene they're in.

Legit fucking goosebumps, THAT was a trailer to showcase what we're getting out of this (love the previous ones but this was more diverse).

I'm beyond giddy. It looks so incredible.

And Cloud only says like a single word in that trailer. I love my boy more than anything but it's great how much they are showcasing all the other characters as well. VII has the best FF cast, no contest.

Wasn't that always going to be the case? You can switch characters in the middle of battle. And Tifa was playable as the "face" character for a good chunk of the OG game anyway.

Forgot to include outside of combat. Yes other characters take the party leader role but much later in the game though

Really hope its the case

I expected Square Enix to really pour all the money they had into this project, but damn it does this game have some fucking money. Every single frame of that looked so lavish, it's gonna be incredible.
