Final Fantasy XVI

I am going to say this straight out please add playable female characters and not be a sausage fest like XV. And I am steamed that DLC on XV got canceled.

Character models look so bad. What happened?

Nothing this trailer's shown has me excited.

Meh, am I supposed to be impressed by that trailer?

Looks interesting. I wonder if it will just be the main character and no party. Though admittedly from what I have seen, that was all likely prologue stuff. My guess is that he will make a party later on With others who can transform, like the girl who is shiva and whoever is titan.

Wonder how far along the game is. Hopefully it is a decent way done

Strange that it has a subtitle like Awakening. I wonder if it intended to be a multi part series.

I think they’re good but just that they are not finished. They will probably be touched up on more when the get more of a grasp of what they can do on the ps5

Looks like they're returning to a more traditional fantasy setting.

Yoshi p did say not long ago that he wanted a final fantasy that was more fantasy. Little to no mecha, etc. pretty sure he was hinting at this game them.

I appreciate that, but it still has a little too much of the FFXV aesthetic to my liking.

They definitely rushed it for sake of hype, can't blame them for doing so.

Not amazing but enjoyable enough.
I surprised they went with stronger medieval Europe aesthetics compare to previous main titles that have a trace of fictional Japanese writing idea from the initial trailer.

Shadowbringers bring me joy, VII Remake went with bold approach that can be better or worse depends on how they done next installment. Hopefully they didn't screw up with this like XV.

I'm a bit confuse. During the "I'll kill you... If it's the last thing I do." part, that's the same character?

It seems to reprise all the things I didn't like about FFXV...

Looks like a before and after timeskip to me.

Why are people so obsessed with turn based returning? I keep reading comments on YouTube and every other keeps demanding the return of turn based combat? Turn based it slow and clunky.

That’s what I thought watching this. This is all likely prologue of the game showing how the Mc got to where he is now

Because games like Bravely Default and Octopath Traveler proved that turn based combat systems can be engaging even nowadays. Furthermore, it is usually less prone to "mashing" for obvious reasons.

Then place your bets. Is MC hunted after failing to protect Joshua and wants to avenge him? Or has he decided that dominants are a danger and he now tries to kill the person he once swore to protect?

I was never a big fan of the overly European medieval aesthetic like XIV. I prefer a sort of sci-fi fantasy like XIII or the modern royalty like XV. But I guess this wasn't too surprising considering the producer is the same guy that saved XIV.

let's hope we don't wait ten years for this one. Ff 15 story was crap unless you see the movie and YouTube clips.

Can't say the trailer really impressed me. I'll still want to learn more about this title, but I'm hoping it doesn't turn out like FFXV.

I assumed he was rebelling against the system or whatever made Joshua go on a rampage as Ifrit.

The latter. More tragic this way.

If nothing else, I have more faith in YoshiP's team to keep a consistent schedule than I do in Luminous Productions.

Poaching Suzuki Ryota who was the battle director for DMC5 is also a good sign.

You must've hated IX then.
