Saw it. Holy moly wowie wow zowie. This game is seriously looking amazing. Plus, you can hop into mechas and tanks and such and blast people in the face

. Now why you can blast some mook with a tank cannon and he doesn't instantly fade is beyond me. Same deal as getting shot with those guns in FFX after that "gun to the chin" cutscene in Bevelle and it just does damage, no permanent wounds or anything

.

But yeah this will be very interesting...and then there's a Noctis/Stella showdown...

I'm just hoping that this won't be an R&J sort of tearjerker of a game in which both Noct and Stella get offed by the end D:.

I am calling it now--she'll get foddered either by Stella, Noct, or a bigger bad

Von Himmel · 2011-03-04, 01:06

This is the first time that I watched the sub...and lol, looks like Noctis personality will be interesting to me :P And while watching the sub, I noticed something that I miss when I watched the video without a sub....what's with that light ? And Etro ?

Well for now, I'm happy because at least they still keep some fantasy element in here rather than doing pure modern-style rpg

Stella:
But why... why are there people who can see it and people who can't?
Maybe there is something i must do or accomplish?

Hm, looks like a Focus to me. And then...

Famitsu & Nomura Talks Final Fantasy Versus XIII

Quote:

As mentioned earlier last week, Famitsu have a feature with Square Enix's Tetsuya Nomura on Final Fantasy Versus XIII. The last we heard and saw of the game was earlier in the year at Square Enix's 1st Production Department Premiere Event.

In the interview, Nomura talked about a number of things, including the new lighting engine, controllable cut-scenes and a new batch of screenshots. Nomura mentions something about taking inspiration from popular first person shooters in regards to cut-scenes where they do not break the flow of gameplay. Cut-scenes can also be controlled. How? Nomura doesn't say exactly, but you can imagine by taking a page out of the Metal Gear games.

Speaking of cut-scenes, previous Final Fantasies have mixed between pre-rendered and real-time events. These real-time events used models with a higher poly-count compared to the actual in-game models, but with Versus XIII, they have "unified" the models, with the only real difference in quality being the hair. Takeshi Nozue is also on staff to help with the visuals, specifically the lighting.

Nomura also showed Famitsu three new screenshots, which will not be shown to the public, and the editors were pretty amazed by the graphical quality of them, to the point of even doubting that the screenshots were taken in real-time. One screenshot showed off an area which looked like an arcade, the other two screenshots were of Noctis in a city at different times, one at noon and one at night.

Voice acting is also being done with Noctis and his buddies actually recording simultaneously during one session in order to get the effect of a realistic conversation taking place.

Other titbits include a dynamic battle system that will change things up to keep the gameplay fresh – that's as obscure a description as any – and that players will be able to snap photos whenever during the game with Noctis' phone, of which there'll be a real-world counterpart not unlike the Advent Children FOMA that was released alongside the movie.

Nomura wouldn't say when he'll be able to share more information, but apologizes to fans for making them wait so long. The next update is said to be for more substantial.

Finally some Versus information even though its very little its news none the less ^__^

FF Versus XIII now in full development.

Quote:

Square Enix dev Yoshinori Kitase has confirmed that Final Fantasy Versus XIII has now entered into full development. At the fan meeting held for Final Fantasy XIII-2 in Tokyo over the weekend, Kitase, who’s producer on the Fabula Nova Crystallis series where Versus comes from, noted that “for Type-0 and Versus XIII we are giving 100% to development.”

Hopefully by the end of 2012 !

Chaos2Frozen · 2011-09-13, 02:19

Not only did that tell us absolutely nothing, we learn that it's going to be an even longer wait than what we've originally feared

Square drops new Final Fantasy Versus XIII

Quote:

Nomura went on to say that Versus XIII will utilize the new Luminous next-generation engine for the game’s lighting. The action-centric elements, however, will be governed by a Versus specific engine.

The reason for this, he explained, is due to the fact the RPG’s lighting is being overhauled, and the developers are using the Luminous Engine for that very purpose. Apparently, photo-realism is the name of the game here; hence the greater focus on lighting effects.

Final Fantasy Versus XIII was originally announced in 2006, and has only just entered full production.

Not much but its news .

Stiletto · 2011-09-22, 12:23

Well, even if it's close to nothing it's better then nothing!

About damn time honestly, especially if you've been following it for years like I have been. Hopefully they don't make it as failboat as 13 or 13-2.

pretty badass

Have to admit, but I dont like the "Action" aspect of this...
Why is it so hard to bring back the good and old ATB?

k//eternal · 2011-12-30, 11:57

Because this isn't mainline FF. And they've always experimented with twists on the battle system, anyway.

The console market isn't interested in turn-based gameplay anymore. Even SE said that FFXV will be an action-RPG.

Terrible news have been going on today: http://kotaku.com/5927645/rumor-fina...s-xiii-is-dead

Seems like Square Enix is really not doing well, combined with the CEO supposedly announcing that they will stop doing non mainstream games and that anyone opposing that would be fired, the staff morale would definitely be crushed.

EDIT: Seems like the internets is raging about it and,

Quote:

Senior US Editor for RPGSite.net ( and a resourceful source for all things Square Enix ) Erren Van Duine responded to the rumor on Neogaf, stating that Final Fantasy Versus XIII is alive and kicking and will be shown at this year’s Tokyo Game Show.
