Not sure what to think. FFXV was a spectacle, but that's my problem with modern shooters, they're usually just spectacle with rails guiding you from setpiece to setpiece.

Also looks a little too much like 8. Trying to ground it more in "Realism" but still with summons and ***. Then again, 12 didn't even have summons, all the Avatars/Espers were just airships (Which I thought was actually kind of cool)

I really wish they kept this as an "off the number" type FF game. All the FF games are RTB games in one way or another. This game seems like an action game, albeit a very awesome looking one.

12 was one of my definite favorites. this one seems to be too modern of a spin of the FF series. As blazer said, i think an off number would be best for this one. It seems like too much of the action not enough of the RPG

TBH I don't like this type of battle system for a main Final Fantasy. Maybe for a spin off or stand-alone game like KH, but this seems to actiony for a Final Fantasy.

More details are to come. So we'll probably see what's really under the hood soon.

DoC's game play was ok i guess. It was diffrent then the usual which was nice. But it rly was the story alone that made that game. (and conenction to 7)

On a seperate note, 11 new content, 14 failure, 14 rerelease, 13-3 lightning returns, now 15... thats a lot oging on at once.

QUALITY OVER QUANITY!

Is there any new info about Noctis possibly being a girl? I believe Nomura accidentally referred to Noctis as a 'her' in one of his tweets. Mistype or accidental slip of a plot twist?

Forgive me, I haven't played a Final Fantasy game since 12, but has it completely left the turn-based style behind?

Hope not. Don't get me wrong, the 13 series is my favorite. The character growth was amazing, the story was unique, and the battles were tactical, but let's face it, we miss our roots.

It looks like its going to play somewhat like Kingdom Hearts and maybe a change of pace is good? idk. Do you really want to play the same style of FF for 20+ years? I've played them all from the original on NES and I'm not opposed to them trying to mix it up.

I assume that he was referring to remotely useful Summons which 12 neglected to include the traditional Aeons/Eidolons in favor of the Lucavi from FF Tactics that the developers included in case players couldn't get a Game Over just using regular party members.

Nomura had previously mentioned a female named Stella on his dev journal. So it was probably just a reference to that.

13 left a bad taste in my mouth. Seeing this gives me some hope in terms of style. The sequences that looked like combat are up in the air for me. I really want the series to stay roughly planted in its turn based roots.

I'm fine with them making more action oriented games, if they are not really in-line with the main series games.

Sort of contradicting to that, I am still psyched for FF14 ARR. What I've played and seen of it shows a lot of promise. It is way more a traditional old-school style FF then any of these newer games which is why I'm fine with it having a main series number. Just the combat system is not quite turn based. Unfortunately I do believe it is kind of doomed to being seen as a mediocre game because all the hype around the current gameplay style of MMOs has kind of died. It'll be an awesome game, but nothing groundbreaking.

I think a good free roaming non turn-based FF is a good way to go for the FF series. 12 was great with that system, but the AI needed to be more not player reliant to know common sense actions...or targeting mobs...at least in my experience. People dont like non turn-based FF's...But god if you can find a perfect mix between the wannabe RTS and the free roam battle systems that would be GREAT.

Turn-based RPG's are my favourite and I attribute my declining interest in gaming to the lack of new said games. That's what Final Fantasy is, IMO.

I enjoyed the turn based fighting imo. The FPS meatheads controlling the market nowdays though so I'm sure they have to appeal to action junkies :/

While I sort of prefer action-RPGs (Megaman Legends is one of my favorite games), I do think they should throw out some kind of turn-based RPG with a less realistic, cartoony (cell-shaded, maybe?) art direction to appease those that prefer that type of game.

I'm excited, I just hope this attempt at reality won't take away from the Final Fantasy feeling. I saw Leviathan and a Behemoth though, so here's to hope!

I have decided I am nothing but SE's battered wife.

no matter how many times I get burnt, I am still dreaming about how fantastic 15 could be, & there's no way they'd hurt me again.

You'll eventually learn that there's no way to cook the roast correctly.
