Dat mid-air combat!

Literally the most insane opem world combat i've ever witnessed.

I am pretty sure I can remember back when we first saw the adamantoise in that trailer, a question being posed to Tabata about it on a ATR or other stream asking if we get to fight it and he not only said we could but that the fight could last hours and hours (many in game days).....I remember laughing at this thinking 'no way in this type of game'......I think SE might be having the last laugh on that one.

Tabata said that it would take a month to beat the adamantoise in actual real time.

First of that air combat footage is tits.

But one thing thing, why is the camera THAT close to the bird?

Tabata said that it would take a month to beat the adamantoise in actual real time.

And the funny thing is, I bet you it isn't even much quicker having a fully decked out Noctis and level 99 maxed out party.....in fact what the hell are your AI going to do during this as you warp around this guy's face?

I think he said 30 in-game days, but he said it with a laugh, and that laugh part didn't translate. I'm pretty sure it was a joke from the beginning.

It would be a real chore if it really were 30 in-game days .
The adamantoise might have some kind of weakness that could allow you to instant kill it but that´s a guess of mine.

Oh my mistake. It was like 2 years ago so my memory is a bit hazy.

The garula animation looks improved to me. Did it look like that in any recent gameplay trailers?. It looks awesome. Also the graphics look so much better than anything we have seen in a long time. Is this the final build of the game?.

Yeah, you're not the only who noticed, it definitely improved and is now way more fluid with additional physics-based movement:

 

[BladeRunner]

Is that Phoenix Noctis is fighting?.

I think it's a Griffon. It has four legs, with talons on the front and a lion's tail.

Ooh nice gif. Wow that looks so good with the added physics simulations. Man this game is gonna be so awesome.

 

[DrBretto]

Every time I see a Griffon, I have an involuntary urge to kill some Alliance scum. FOR THE HORDE!

Actually, thanks for that link. I saw someone mention that they through it was a griffon and I thought they were crazy, somehow forgetting that there have been many incarnations in FF game's past. I'm getting old in my old age.

Oh yea I see the four legs now. Everything else about it reminds me of Phoenix though.

 

[ChingleeTribal]

Well I'll be skipping any media coming out of gamescom and any following media. The game will be close enough to release from when gamescom comes around. And then 11 days after that Kingsglaive will be avaliable! So I'll be watching that up until the release of the game xD

 

[LeonBlade]

Is that Phoenix Noctis is fighting?.

Looks like a reskin of the bird we've seen before, so, probably not.

Many text, but they still used ebony engine.

That is called Ebony Editor, it's just a name. I get what you're trying to say, but the engine they are using is Luminous. Ebony Editor seems to be the name they've given the level editor probably a remanent from Ebony when they merged the toolchain together.

Tabata said that it would take a month to beat the adamantoise in actual real time.

He said 15 hours, not a month.

Hahaha tha little marlboro is hilarious and I must say the contextual physics and animation on the second gif is so impressive to me. The wait is killing me for this game. Hey you wouldn't happen to know if that gif with the baby marlboro is showing the final build of the game would you?. It looks so beautiful. It looks much better than the first video they showed of Duscae back in 2014.

 

[ChingleeTribal]

That baby marlboro is adorable :3
