Full of direct quotes. I like that they didn't go the usual route SQEX's become notorious for of a CGI trailer and logo teaser, despite the backlash over unpolished graphics.

Nice, actually quite pleased with the way the way they've handled communication so far.

I have to say the intentional choice of using real-time footage over CGI is winning me over somewhat. Granted, this is something Square-Enix has been decidedly doing in their marketing for mainline games since the Remake. None of the trailers were prerendered CGI done by Visual Works IIRC. Actually, the marketing and communication in general has been improving slowly since Realm Reborn.

Well the original XIV was a bit of a wakeup call concerning their management and marketing, and they've been trying to get back fan trust ever since. I mean, they were seriously considering ending FF if XV didn't do well. It got that bad. But thankfully, we've got XVI, and FF's beginning to get its spark back.

"Basic development" and scenario already done. From their recruitment page:
"We have already completed basic development and scenario production, and are continuing to create large-scale resources and build boss battles while expanding our various development tools,"
“Also, most of our staff are carrying out their work remotely.”
Square Enix is currently seeking final staff to help complete the world of Final Fantasy XVI with various stages and fields, large-scale cutscenes, character actions, and so on.

So basically they're just working on those big story setpieces and overall presentation at this point from the sound of it. That's really exciting to hear and this game may actually see the light of day within the next year or two.

Idk why anyone had concerns of the protagonist being silent when he was narrating throughout the trailer and talking about himself and the crystals. Also his adult hairstyle honestly doesn't bother me personally because it hearkens back to the simpler pre-Nomura era of FF character designs.

Having character designs that reflect the world they are placed in would be nice. Lightning Returns, XV and VII Remake had a huge dissonance between the main cast and the characters that inhabited the world at large. (Also having npc character models of similar quality to the main/playable cast like XIV does would go a long way.)

Latest issue of OPM is claiming Final Fantasy is most likely coming next year. If that's true then I'll be impressed. I don't think we've had a game announcement and possible release so close together in a long while from Square.

Kind of irrelevant to the video but I really hope that the protagonist gets a better looking weapon at some point or that, that one is just a placeholder at most because that thing in the thumbnail just screams generic asset to me. FF is known for it's fantastical looking weapons, particularly when it comes to the main protagonists and I really hope they don't do away with that aspect in this game.

I know but even as a starter weapon it looks pretty bland and I hope its not indicative of the rest of the weapons. Still not over how bland and generic a lot of the weapons in FFXV looked aside from the few obvious standouts. I know it sounds cynical but I just don't want a repeat of that here is all.
