Final Fantasy VX on PS4 putting TW3 and it's devs to shame!

Some of those FFXV screenshots look pretty underwhelming. The game generally looks decent but by no stretch of the imagination spectacular. Its environments have a lack of object and geometry assets which is what I think is its weak point. Lighting isn't particularly impressive either, at least in those screens and for a Fantasy/Sci-Fi game (or indeed a Final Fantasy game) it seems to have a lack of particle effects adding variety, colour and extra light to the game's environment.

This

actually ff xii was incredible, lacked a bit in the story aspect but the world and gameplay was one of the best.

what the hell is VX?

Roman Numeral 15 is XV.

Yep. When I first got it I was just as turned off as everyone else, but once you get into the game it's incredibly addictive with tons of content. It was more of a "next gen" FF than FFXIII AND it actually shared more similarity with the earlier games in the series than FFX did.

The story wasn't even that bad, it was just spread too thin over such a massive game.

LOL what a joke. comparing a girly JRPG to Mans game that is witcher 3?

Haven't really seen enough of FF to make that kind of determination, but I honestly think TW3 looks better. But I'm excited for the Next FF game.. Next year will be VERY busy.

I came in expecting more talk about Graphics and nothing else.

I was not dissapointed..... Unfortunately.

First off, all FFXV footage is on PC, confirmed by Nomura in 2013, Second, stop comparing games graphics before they come out, the amount of games that get downgraded before launch is disgusting

FF13 also comes to mind

For a game that has been in development for about 8 years, I would hope it'd look better than a game that's been in the works for half that time.

While Final Fantasy 15 looks great graphically, the environments are really barren and not very diverse on a per-scene basis. There is a lot more detail packed in per-scene in The Witcher 3.

The picture at the bottom looks better even though is taken from a compressed video.

Witcher 2 is an open world, meanwhile FF is usually a corridor running simulator.

And secondly, suck this

The second GIF here, if it is truly being run in real time with consumer hardware; is the greatest graphical display of any video game, EVER.

No slowpoke, the demo isn't the TGS trailer, the demo takes place somewhere else & it's confirmed it's not coming in march 2015

FFXII was great. Many fans of the series just felt put off by it because of differences from the previous games. And I don't doubt many badmouth it without trying it out. A guy I know badmouthed it sometimes, until I lended him my copy.That being said, while it is certainly a solid and fun game it did have a number of questionable design decisions:

-The licence board, being the same for eveyone, meant that by the end of the game every character became more and more like eachother, to the point where they could become near carbon-copies.

-Executive meddling in the story, effectively shoehorning Vaan into the story because they though an androgynous main character would sell the game better in Japan (originally Balthier was supposed to be the main character).

-Having to buy gambits and going overboard with the system. (I should note that Dragon Age: Origins has a VERY similar system, almost a copy, and no one complains about that).

-etc

Regarding the story, like conan says, the story was simply a small part of a massive game. In that aspect XII was more western-style. JRPGs tend to focus a lot on the main story a few side quests while western RPGs tend to have a smaller main arch with a lot of side quests. XII was very western-style in that aspect. The game is massive, and it's easy to forget what the story is about but honestly it's quite interesting: The fight of a small country caught between the fight of two larger neighbours, and the attempt of Cid to free humanity from the will of the Gods (Occuria), which he actually succeeds at.

Also, the international edition actually fixed a lot of problems. Adding a job system for example, with many different licence boards. Unfortunately it never left Japan.

Regarding the topic at hand, I wouldn't be surprised if FFXV also makes it's way into PC, seeing has XIII just got released on Steam. I'm certainly hoping it will.

2 things.

1. Thats a tech demo the gameplay is full of jaggies.

2.It is also coming to pc.

hasn't ff15 been in development for probably 3 times longer than tw3

OP has been embarrassed.

reminds me of trying to evolve my Eevee into an Umbreon.

FF 15 clearly looks better, the character models look better than in the Witcher 3

Well it took FFXV like 8 years and its 60% done. This means we should expect this game by the year 2020 on the ps5.

By then, there might be a Xbox called Xbox Aquarius and SquareEnix developing for Xbox/PC Only (Sony will most likely go bankrupt sadly).
