Final Fantasy XV Demo Episode Duscae Gets New Commercial; Promotes First Print Bonus for Type-0

Square Enix is seriously pushing Final Fantasy XV‘s demo Episode Duscae, to the point that now the fact that it’s included as a first print bonus for Type-0 got its own commercial.

I played the import of type 0 and its great its coming to the west but I find it weird its coming to ps4.

I was going to pre order to get the demo of 15 but I changed my mind. I can wait untilt the release, I don't want to pay full price for a game I already have and played recently.

I will be looking forward to reading and hearing peoples reactions to the game demo though :)

[Godmars290]

They wanted to make a version of Type-0 that exploited the PS4's hardware. Making allowances for a PSV version, especially when the PSV isn't a generally favored systems, would have held it back.

[vishmarx]

theyre essentially buying sales for type-0, which is a great game by itself and increasing the jrpg userbase on ps4xb1 for ffxv
while ive hand a few hands on sessions with the psp version, i havent played it so im cool regardless

[NoctisPendragon]

You are lucky to be so Strong ,congratulation.
I also played FF type 0 (130 h+ and one of my favorite game), but i am still going to buy the hd version for 2 reasons :
1.I did not pay FF type 0 the 1st time , now i can ease my mind.
2.Watching FF XV demo on YouTube wouldn't be as fun as playing it,i really need this game in my life since 2010.

Let us hope FF XV is as good or way better than FF type 0.

Also don't want to pay full price for a remastered handheld game. I've heard it's great so that's good news. We need something good to rebound from XII and XIII. I realize people like XII so I'll get disagrees, but that story and those characters...just brutal. Oh and programming in macros like an MMO so you don't have to think or play wasn't cool either (same with XIII's auto-chain). Let me press something other than 'X'.

[Adrian_v01]

Uhm...you've been pressing X plus directional buttons in all FFs...XIII had the R and L buttons mapped as well though... I don't see a major change in controls in the past titles.

[mezati99]

We've reached advent child's level of visuals!! WOW

[Godmars290]

At the cost of FF4-FF9 gameplay.

[kratos123]

i can live with that

[mezati99]

i prefer the new one.

[Lionalliance]

And how is that a bad thing?

[Irishguy95]

Yes thankfully.

[goldwyncq]

Change is not a bad thing.

[Godmars290]

@goldwyncq:

Except when change = less options/ignoring narrative mechanics.

FF13 committed ad infinitum "sins" in regards to plot, scripting and character presentation/development that, from a personal standpoint, Square has forfeited any credibility as storytellers. To me.

[F0XHOUND]

I'd like to play your copy of final fantasy XV please :)

[Godmars290]

@FOXHOUND:
Give me a couple of million, a few odd years to either learn UE4 and/or a good team, and I'll get back to you.

Though I'd be aiming for Firefly meets Final Fantasy.

[pivotplease]

Kind of agree with Godmars, but it can't be worse than XII or XIII gameplay. That bored me to tears while this looks to have some action elements that may change up the game (assuming they haven't trashed Nomura's vision). Plus we're getting the overworld and vehicles back to a degree. That is the most welcome change of all tbh.

[TheLastColossus]

Since when demos get promoted?

[goldwyncq]

Just last year with Ground Zeroes.

[TheLastColossus]

Oh, I forgot that one

[pivotplease]

Boom. Still can't believe I paid 8 bucks for that. Should have waited for another sale.

[Taislin]

Since people have been waiting for 8 years to get their hands on it, and since it has 4 hours of content.

[NoctisPendragon]

Since they have put a lot of effort(and money) into it.
And since , most of us are graphics whores who wont buy FF Type 0 HD for 60$ so easily.

FFXV demo is a good way to force a lot of people to discover FF type 0 , its a good thing.

Those who only want FF type 0 will buy it later when the price drop.
Only a PS Vita user could complain.

[Elda]

Can't wait!

[josephayal]

not bad, but I just don't believe in Square Enix anymore

[pivotplease]

Agreed. I'm pretty sure the dream might be dead. Tidus' disappearance was symbolism for the end of Squaresoft. The eternal calm symbolized the end of compelling narratives and conflicts. I still have hope for this next batch of games, but Square is actually french toast if they don't pan out.

[Eiyuuou]

That was some awesome music!
