Squeenix what is this... World of Final Fantasy?

it's going to be good

There was a time when FF used to be an example of cutting edge graphics (on consoles anyway), the art style was highly appealing (character models aside), and the gameplay wasn't a corridor simulator. Square Enix are persistent to rape this franchise's rotting corpse over and over before the decomposition process is complete.

Anything associated with Square Enix these days triggers my anger and contempt for this shitty industry hard. I think I prefer even EA or Activision at this point.

 

[Hobo Elf]

A japanese role playing game.

 

[Perkel]

New reason to put Lighting in something.

At this point Ligtning is basically Hello Kitty.

Now that I think about it, how come Square doesn't do a Harvest Moon/Rune Factory ripoff in the FF world? You could raise and race chocobos (ff7 mini game expanded) and take advantage of the bajillion FF job classes n shiet.

fuckin square fire numenera and hire me!!!

Imagine horde of weebos trying to get lightingu in their bedingu.

 

[Lemming42]

Looks a bit shit.

 

[Jaesun]

What in the fuck?

Just wait till they put Noctis and his gay "entourage" in to everything ^^

 

[Crooked Bee]

Looks nice.

 

[LESS T_T]

It's Pokemon. Gotta catch 'em all FF characters!

It still is?

At least the graphics are far from the franchises problems.

 

[Epsilon]

I really hate the moé and chibi art styles.

 

[flyingjohn]

So i guess this is the square version of persona q,minus the actual good game play.

 

[vonAchdorf]

The game is made with a younger audience in mind. Also "it uses the ATB of FF games before 10", said the game director.

The chibi style seems to be a result of the game / combat mechanics (stacking on top of each other to enhance similar abilities) - and I think it looks o.k., makes Lightning more bearable than in her normal form.

(last year's E3):

Because that would be a good idea.

 

[Shaewaroz]

Clearly it's another shitty Grimoire™ ripoff trying to capitalize on Cleve's brilliance. Why else would they have named the game world Grimoire?

Time for another lawsuit?

 

[Jaesun]

At least this Grimoire™ will be finished and playable soon....

 

[Abu Antar]

Quoting myself from the rand jrpg news thread:

I wholeheartedly think that they wre going for their own minifigure collection or whatever like and shit like Skylanders and then shelved the idea and they ended up with these designs and said: Fuck it, let's make a game. It is supposed to be 100 hours long. I'm not buying this any time soon, but if I hear good things about combat and exploration, I might get it on Vita.

Lo and behold:

I don't love the graphical style but it's turn-based and as I said before, if it plays well, I will probably buy at some point. Other games are more important, like Exist Archive and Trails of Cold Steel 2.

 

[Abu Antar]

Someone said that Hamazu is composing the soundtrack. Whatever I may end up thinking about the quality of the game, I know the soundtrack will be good.

 

[e-mailio estevez]

They somehow made the Bravely Default / FF3DS art style even worse.

 

[Scroo]

Wow, looks actually good! But PS4 and Vita exclusive

I wouldn't be surprised if this got a PC release at some point. The same goes for FFXV.

i really like the fact that MagiTek armor from FF6 features prominently in the story. that is all.
