Btw, you can tell from the interview that he puts a lot into his games.

pain777pas5872d ago

Sounds like some sort of open world to me. Maybe its like ff12 in the way you travel only no loading screens and the gameplay hopefully is not completely the same though I wouldn't mind it because it was more the main character that made ff12 not one of my favs Balthier should have been the leading man.

lol hahaha Noruma is not playing, this PS3 Exclusive will blow your mind's once revealed... I always, always perfered FF vs 13 over FF 13.... from the moment I seen the trailer I was like (You Got Me) lol... he dosent want a half-a** game... he is going to bring pure quality... He said it made it feel like the town is right in front of you...

RememberThe3575873d ago

I was skeptical at first, I love the series too much to write it off just like that.

Although Dragon Quest 8 did end up being my favorite RGP last gen.

The Great Melon5873d ago

@Legendary-Status
Same here. I remember seeing the trailer for FFXIII and was impressed, but when the music begin and the quote started to appear in the FFvXIII trailer, I knew this would be the game to watch. The atmosphere of the game alone caught my attention. This my most anticipated title this generation. I can't wait till this comes out.

360DownINflames5873d ago

Its call Final Fantasy XXXIVXXIVIVIV ... Should be better than the rest.

ps921175873d ago

Do you mean XXXXIVXVVIIIV, which is really XXXXXVI, which is really just LVI.

Immediately thought of the El Dorado zombie dudes in Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune.

raWfodog48d ago (Edited 48d ago )

Not necessarily a ‘horror’ moment, but I remember feeling really tense and anxious when the Flood were first introduced in the original Halo. I never felt more on edge or nervous in that whole game as that moment. I think it was the whole buildup that something terrible was coming but you didn’t know exactly what.

Another non-horror game that had me feeling it was Subnautica. The deep dark depths, and knowing that sea monsters were lurking nearby, had me jumping at every sound.

NettosGameRoom47d ago

That scene where you first see them attack is pretty crazy!

Relientk7747d ago

I remember being scared of the Asylum level in the most recent Thief game from 2014.

always liked 15, but the development was shch a shitshow. it could have been so much more.

but Tabata did a good job with what he had regardless

DivineHand125182d ago

Ff15 was a missed opportunity from square as they transitioned from turn based to real time.

One of the issues is that it was 30 fps. The combat mechanics required precision dodges to activate Noctis teleport ability and it was difficult to do at 30 fps. I am glad they rectified that in FF16. The story and flow also felt like it went through a chopshop similar to how some live service games end up when they are trying to meet a deadline. Those extra episodes they sold as dlc should have been in the maingame.

FF15 is one of the weaker entries in the series.

Z501181d ago

Dodges don't activate the teleport ability. Teleport was R1 + O. Dodge was just the O button. Explain the Black Hood (the item that automatically Dodges for you)

TheNamelessOne182d ago

Ah yes; FF XV.
The beginning of me coming to the realization the series was no longer for me.

Michiel1989181d ago

16 was a lot better, I think 15 was just a big mess with how development went and all. The music though, one of the best in the series, probably the only reason I finished the game.

Cacabunga181d ago

At least FF15 had RPG elements . 16 was just an action game from beginning to end.

Michiel1989181d ago

I rather have a good action game than a bad rpg with 2 button combat

Cacabunga181d ago (Edited 181d ago )

Then call it something else then FF. I got scammed with FF16. Nothing of what i expected it to be.
Even the action is bad in it, especially after the demo section where absolutely nothing happens until the very end.

FF15 isnt a great game but it has some variety at least.

CrimsonWing69182d ago

That initial trailer with the Leviathan fight was the game I wish we got. The actual retail release was watchdogged to all Hell and while there’s enjoyment to be had in the game, it’s such an incomplete product and so many elements feel so slapped together without any cohesion.

Like, don’t get me wrong, I loved fishing, cooking, and the first third of the game, but I much rather they made a story that didn’t feel barely there and the the last third of the game didn’t feel so rushed and unfinished.

Becuzisaid181d ago

Every time a party member left for a period of time screamed future paid dlc. It was horrible.

Imagine Dagger and Steiner making the party go to sleep in Lindblum in FF9 disc 1 and then taking off to Alexandria by foot themselves, but then never playing their side of the adventure in disc 2 when they smuggle her through the South Gate in pickles, take the cable car and fight the Waltz, head to Treno and start the quest to find Supersoft. They just eventually reunite with the main party in the future without explanation of what went on in their adventure.

Or Sephiroth's backstory in the famous Kalm flashback being added as a dlc pack. Same goes for Vincent, Cid, or Yuffie for that matter.

Oh and anything to do with Jenova, the Ancients, Aerith, her mom and Gast, shoved into a 2 hour CG movie or 5 hour anime ministries that's considered required viewing for anything in the main game to make sense or have characters actually be interesting.

I enjoyed FF15 at the time, and finished it, but it's bright spots are marred by a bad development cycle and a worse marketing scheme.

CrimsonWing69181d ago

What’s sad is when I watched a vid on the entire story (that wasn’t properly told in the actual game)!it was really solid and could’ve been one of the most epic stories in any FF. I think a lot of the compilation and cross-media stuff really f*cked it all up.

gurp182d ago

FFXV was underrated in my opinion
I have played all of the final fantasy games, and I loved this game
turn based to me takes too long, I like active battle
the extra dlc and chapters should have been included in the original release, but it is nice that they fixed the game later
