Final Fantasy XV - General News Thread

[Storm]

there's one page of the cosmogony in galdin quay, the term archean only refers to titan, while the others summons have similar titles like fulgurian, glacian or draconian.

oh the monsters died faster than before or it's just my impression?

"Also, met and talked with Matt from SE. He told me some very interesting things about the delay and the E3 Titan demo. He literally asked me not to put this info on social media. I'm still torn but either way I'll post it when the game is near release."

damn, i want to know ;(

Unsurprisingly they found another thing to latch onto. Oh well, no skin off my back (that's the right saying right?) . Seems like if they really wanna complain about something they will find it.

Something minor, FFXV is confirmed to support HDR on XboxOneS at launch.

My read on it is that it's nothing major. Probably, and I'm totally making this up, it's just an example, Mat says something like how the Titan demo was a rush job or something. Just one inane example. In context with the rest of the post, it doesn't seem like anything huge.

I have to say last month and recent days have been quite a blessing for FFXV.

Makes last year feel like a disasterous nightmare, now that was the peak of XV shitposting (which isn't to say its still there, but less so in comparison).

What are you referring to?

 

[Bionicle8563]

A couple of complaints were about VA (which I can understand) toerh stuff included Positional audio and how its immersion breaking. Apart from that some combat complaints and yeah. Basically the only new complaint is that positional audio thing and its not really catching on. But I mean we're only on page 6 of the GAF thread, things can escalate pretty quickly.

People were bitching about the voice acting?. I think the voice acting is amazing in English. I think it's much better than the Japanese dub honestly. I love the banter between the 4 bros so much. No game comes even close when it comes to banter.

 

[Bionicle8563]

Oh yeah, I personally prefer the EN VA to the JP VA because of the banter. Its so much fun, and in fact (or at least in my mind) the banter wouldn't translate well if I had to read the subtitles.

 

[ChingleeTribal]

I also very much prefer the English VA. Especially Luna and Ardyn.

XV got some great banter between the bros but NieR remains king for now in that factor

I was talking about the sheer number of lines of dialogue each of the characters have not to mention all the contextual ones in certain areas. Every time they speak I get a huge smile on my face. Great quality dialogue too in my opinion.

 

[ChingleeTribal]

Yeh, it definitely has a massive quantity of such kind of spoke dialogue sprinkled throughout the game. The likes of which I've not seen in any game before.

It'll be constantly entertaining just travelling around in the world of XV listen to the plentiful conversation of the bros and how they react to the world around them through dialogue

WAT. Stupid people. It would be so lifeless if the four bros didn't talk all. Positional banters are arguably what made Dragon Age and Mass Effect great games. It's a blessing FF is considering party banters in its open-world gameplay.

 

[Bionicle8563]

Oh I think they were talking about positional audio, in which depending on the relative position on each person to the main character the volume would change (and sometimes be more prominent in one ear than the other) to make it sound like they are talking in a 3D environment.

The banter itself was another thing they were saying is bad cause of the writing, which makes no sense. Like, the shit me and my friends talk about is much worse (both grammatically and content wise) than anything seen in XV (not saying its bad). Like banter between friends isn't meant to be this well written amazing thing, if it were honestly it would start feeling much faker much more quickly.

 

[Somber]

Ah I see. What if they add something that adjusts the character voice volume according to the respective environments? I'm afraid they aren't possible at the time this late. I wouldn't try too hard to understand bro banter though. It's just the story cutscenes that actually matter. Well, we'll see it when we play the game. Hope it doesn't let us all down.

Lastly, if the user complaints were well-constructed, people might get what they said though. Plainly complaining doesn't help anyone. I refuse to use neogaf so I don't know what they were saying. My bad lol.

Agreed, I really enjoy the party banter as well. If we're going to be travelling around a MASSIVE world, there needs to be some banter to break up the time it takes to travel from place to place - especially on foot.

I'd love to see how the banter and interactions change when there's a guest party member - especially if it's a female or even Luna... The guys even poked fun at Noctis when she was talking on the radio lol. It would make a good laugh because boys can be boys!

Now this thread is for discussing what NeoGAF thinks about the game, huh?

>NeoGAF is one person
Would it be any different if they where from Reddit or even people from this site?

Agree with this, English Cor is also pretty good.
