Rhys from Awesome Games writes: 'At this year’s Tokyo Game Show, Square Enix revealed a new trailer for their latest entry in their chief money maker series: Final Fantasy XV. It demonstrated the game’s gorgeous visuals, Southern European inspired locales paired with an interesting sci-fi overlay, and a bizarre departure from the series’ regular style of gameplay. This was all well and good, and for a trailer, it actually did a decent job of showing off a few tidbits of what we can expect the final product to be like.'

Gary Green said: With my fondness for (most) Final Fantasy games and my side goal of finishing off games in my collection with loose ends, a return to Final Fantasy XV seemed inevitable. It also serves as my third Final Fantasy platinum trophy after VII and VIII, a reasonable substitute since Final Fantasy IX is nigh on impossible to master.
Final Fantasy 15's director has revealed why he left Square Enix back in 2018.
Hajime Tabata famously resigned from Square Enix two years after Final Fantasy 15 shipped in 2016. In a special livestream at the time, Tabata announced his decision to resign from the company, cancelling three of four new story-focused DLC episodes for Final Fantasy 15 in the process.
Man inherited a train wreck and was expected to release this game in under two years after it spent a better part of a decade in development hell. At one point there was even plans to make FFXIII Versus a musical. He did what he could.
Whatever the behind-the-scenes went on over the many years, at the end of the day it was a radical change in direction that I could not go along with. Also why I never bought 16.
''The problem is, just like Final Fantasy XIII before it, that final product might end up a hilarious mess of a game with clashing themes and laughably awful characters. Here’s a bunch of reasons why Final Fantasy XV could very well be the final nail in the beloved franchise’s coffin'
Totally agree I don't know what has gotten into Square Enix, they were so much better back in the SquareSoft days...
"All five of the Boyz sport black boots with red leather soles."
So they wear Louis Vuitton shoes?
The author tried too hard to be funny its pathetic...
Only two guys, Noctis and the blond one have haircuts which are unusual...in the West. In Japan they are rather common. The other 3 guys look rather normal to me. They all serve Noctis as his bodyguards so it kinda makes sense they'd be dressed similarly.
The world is supposed to be huge so you'll be thankful to have a car, chocobos will be there too. And the car, Noctis is an fing prince, of course his car will be luxurious. I don't see Queen Elizabeth driving around in a Ford Anglia either. And wow, Final Fantasy 8 was nowhere near a failure, sold almost 8m copies. And yeah, wast fields of nature and a sci-fi setting were never featured in any game before Xenoblade. Xenoblade did it first, totally.
