I don't think they are going to release the demo to the public. Some are saying that the demo has FPS issues.
Realistically I was thinking like a December demo release as a pre-order incentive (should be near final at that time).
nah, FF XV is entirely tabata I think. if Nomura stay attached to Versus, I doubt it will ever have that hold button to auto attack or dodge thing. FF7R combat seems like a perfectly logical evolution of old ATB system combine with ff13 stagger mechanic . in the old ATB, you wait the atb bar until you can input various command like attack, item, magic etc. similar thing still happened in FF7R, but they allow you to move around, doing smaller attack, defend/evade, making positioning more relevant and you're not standing in a line like the old turn based system. I'm kinda surprised they haven't tried this before.
Aerith and the pan out is CG, if that's what you mean. I don't really think we've seen the point in which they manage to transition it. Impressions on the graphics in the demo seem good. I heard some people say things like Cloud's hair being a bit fuzzy or blurry. Also the framerate was a little wild.
Fuckin HATE how Sephiroth, Cloud and Zack have to be included in the Before Crisis artwork. It can't just be about the Turks. Gotta crowbar in Cloud and Sephiroth, because it can't be FFVII without Cloud and Sephiroth. It reminds me of Jim Sterling's fear about "Remember the rivalry between Cloud and Sephiroth? Because that's what FFVII was, a story completely about how Cloud and Sephiroth were rivals and would always fight each other!!"Strange that no one has asked them about extended Avalanche missions and moments with the Turks.
Okay, that's cool!!
Already said this some weeks ago, but I hope to god Reno looks like the creepy motherfucker he was before:Strange that no one has asked them about extended Avalanche missions and moments with the Turks.
He already saw the whole presentation.
He mentioned in his first recap of the demo he played that the demo jumps you forward to around the point where Jessie's foot is stuck in the reactor.
Press saw a behind closed doors demonstration with Kitase showcasing the bombing mission from the beginning. I guess he must be referring to that.
Indeed, and it's a shame as the actual hair looks insane.
Not only do they have 9 months, but all the TV's at E3 apparently have horrible settings that fuck up the look a bit i.e. sharpening
Totally agree with the Reno bit. Original Reno, given his artwork, model and how he acted, was more of a creep than the bishie "I'm crazy, look at me hang my tongue out.... baahhhhh!" guy from the Compilation. Like I've said elsewhere, Reno used to give me a slimy, greasy, Steve Buscemi-vibe. The whole re-design (yeah, that's what it is) was either something the higher ups thought would be nice ("Dude needs to be more cute and bishie to attract the girlies!") or Nomura knowingly redesigned him like that because he thinks that sorta change is beneficial to the character (it isn't, and it's a instance of a Creator not knowing what is best for his creation, or being out of touch, which I hate to say but, c'mon Nomura, that's a BAD change... amongst all the bad chances the Compilation as a whole brought forth). Had Nomura intended Reno to look like a studmuffin back in 97, he would've given him a face with the similar structure to Tseng and Rufus.This is really cool: according to Eurogamer Spain's preview of the demo, in between battles, there's a time where Barret, seemingly stressed, starts humming one of the original game's songs to himself (to calm down I'm guessing). I wonder what song it is. His own theme, maybe?
Beyond that, he also praises what he played (and he's a big fan of the original) and is really excited about the game.
His only negative has to do with the IQ and how Cloud's hair looks fuzzy, unlike in the conference footage, but acknowledges that they still have nine months left to improve that.
Already said this some weeks ago, but I hope to god Reno looks like the creepy motherfucker he was before:
His design in the Compilation (and how he's treated) is fucking awful.
Like, what the fuck is this:
But yeah, I really want to see how those guys look and what their expanded role is.
