Final Fantasy XV - General News Thread

[LeonBlade]

For those who don't know what debilitate means; referring to the word used for FFXV, you can simply weaken enemies by hitting sections of the enemy's body that's vulnerable.

The combat planner saying that it can be done by destorying parts of the enemy's body and the first thing comes to mind is literally gore. I'm intrigued by that comment.

And yet they also said you can't chop off body parts... so I don't think so.

Chopping off body parts isn't the only way to "destroy" them.
I only remember them talking about no chopping off in regards to ratings due to blood and such but even in Duscae you can rip arms of the Magitek Soldiers.
So in the destroying parts of the enemies body mechanic you might destroy some part of the enemy, Titan's toe nail for example, to enable you to do something.

This is old but i didn´t catch it until now.

that just made me super nostalgic lol....

I don't think there's going to be any actual dismemberment going on, I stated this earlier, but at most I feel that they're referring to hitting an area enough to cause a stagger, which definitely could trigger a QTE involving that area, but nothing as egregious as tearing limbs off.

You can't chop off body parts, because of the rating?
Than why can you cut the tail in LR? It's pegi 12.

I have been hearing this rumor (Takeshi Nozue already working on XV´s ending) for some weeks but, could anyone tell from where did it come from ?

 

[Lulcielid]

Even though this is not XV related i think this is an important discussion, Do you think that Deus Ex: Mankind Divided delay would affect somehow FFXV release date ?

Why would it? Eidos is a completely separate company even if they are a subsidiary of Square Enix that means absolutely nothing. Final Fantasy XIV has been able to work without worrying about Deus Ex, so why should XV?

Never heard of it.

While it's pleasing to hear that it would be free, it also means it's optional. Airships and underwater combat won't be apart of the main story if it's tacked on afterward. I might be of the opinion that the game should be delayed until both features can be available from Day 1. Granted, that's my humble opinion. I'm a patient man.

 

[yeah_93]

In an interview with Chinese gaming news site VGTime Hajime Tabata Director of Final Fantasy XV confirmed a new demo is now in development.

 

[BladeRunner]

lol Duscae 3.0

But I'm okay with a new demo as long as we'll finally see the complete combat system.

 

[Rezon]

New demo is not new news.
The plan was always to do Duscae and then a small combat demo that would be free for everyone.

 

[Squirrel Emperor]

Based on this if I remember correctly.

 

[yeah_93]

I dunno, I just took it as if Tabata said he's developing another demo, since he didn't specifically said it was that section @Squirrel Emperor is talking about.

I guess we'll have to wait for details, then.

If none of them is crucial to the final game, then there is no point in delaying it.

Wow. Some of the stuff revealed here is really really cool. The jungle setting, the dragon-like enemies, the Titan concept art... I think I saw a few flashes of particle effects for magic as well? They have a lot of big stuff up their sleeves.

 

[Lulcielid]

As many of you have guessed, the next presentation of FFXV will be at Jump Festa.

 

[Lulcielid]

We are not GAF
