Thank you! Yes, it's awesome to see lots of classic enemy types making their return. Also very excited to see the gameplay demo coming in only a week!

Oh, it'll be quite exciting, I'm sure.

I know it was meant as a joke, but I'm totally expecting a "Lightning" character in the game, something like Seven in type-0.

I wouldn't mind a Lightning clone as a boss fight, it would be fun actually, beating her up after her - IMO - awful trilogy.

Please don't treat her like this. She had potential. That dude ruined it. Hate the dude.

Recent FFXV screenshots were analyzed to be native 1080p!

So... Episode Duscae is - pretty much - confirmed to run @1080P? This demo will be the best looking game on consoles for a long time lol.

Let's hope the game is known for being more than just that.

It will be known as the game that revolutionized its genre, put a new standards for open world games, and returned Final Fantasy as a lead in the entire industry.
Tabata- san will deliver.

One can only hope.

So we're getting a tutorial approximately a month away from the actual release of the demo. To think the game will be here that soon in a playable format. A year ago, that would have been unimaginable.

A great video summarize the whole Versus/XV situation since 2006 until now.

Ok, i'm getting confused again. Is the demo going to be limited time only(meaning we can play it for a year or more, or is there a cut off date to when the demo expires and is no longer playable) or is the limited time only for the Day 1 pre-order?

You buy the day one edition, you get the demo. It doesn't have time limit as far as we know.

I believe it does actually...

 

[Starlord]

I believe it does actually...

Got a source for that?

The only time limit is you actually getting the download code. If you have a code you have the demo for life.

 

[llazy77]

I dont think Square Enix could remove the demo from your system or can they?
Tabata did say “But rather than make it available forever, we’re thinking of a cut-off period. It wouldn’t be a very long period, in order to make its existence feel a little more special.” this could mean two things hes referring to the first run copies of type 0 or a possibility of a limited amount of uses on the demo

 

[Infest]

The time for getting the demo is limited, not the time for playing it.

Do you have any source saying that its not going to be limited?

 

[LeonBlade]

I don't see how SE could possibly make it so you couldn't play it anymore once you download it. Even if Tabata did say that previously, I doubt he's going to enforce it. The demo has had a lot of changes with it as well.
