      FF14 is basically single-player now. You can use AI for every dungeons and boss trial. Only hindrance is the sub free. Not sure if all of FFXI has Trusts though, although I know that's where it originated from.

      FF11 had some remake mobile version at some point but it was canned. FF11 is still profitable but sadly 11 and 14 won't get the dq10 treatment as long as they are that profitable
      I also dislike the sub fees, they should let you buy the full game then don't play online

        i don't know how true that is. sounds counter-intuitive but FFXI being "profitable" isn't enough. it's about scale of economy. they still have to have some maintenance team and offices, etc. still have to maintain some ancient as frick network architecture and some rotting old PS2 devkit.
        you could put a mobile game team in that space and make 100x the money of FFXI. i'm sure they'd love an excuse to just pull it. at this point they are at least willing to just put up with it, and eat the opportunity cost, for the sake of fan loyalty and not pissing us off.
        they really should bite the bullet and put together a UI update + server emulation version for offline+P2P use, before its too late.

          They got like literally 7 people working on the game and every time they need to implement something substantial they borrow engineers from the main team working on XIV. It'll be fine, the player base is well dedicated as it's not the kind of experience you can get anywhere else.

          There's plenty of non-weebshit I'm fine with too, but nothing looks quite as moronic as modern FF characters. Maybe its because they go halfway intead of commiting? They try to look grounded yet they have a hint of gay moron and it ruins the entire thing.

            No, its probably exactly that
            It's halfway between weebshit and trying to look like GoT or something more gritty like that. It cant let itself look too gothic or it will look less like a FF title and more like a Souls title instead. But they still wanna be 'close' to it anyway seems like.
            I'm kind of slightly offput by the artstyle itself and i thought i was just chalking it up to the color palette

        I think because it is not “weebshit” enough for you? For me the worst era for FF designs was XIII. Not the main cast, but side-characters

        XV has some shit as well, like every named NPC that wasn’t designed by Nomura or Ferrari.

        It's not bad because it's "modern", it's bad because it's a first-timer (for a mainline game) designing the characters and he made it as bland as possible. They all look like MMO NPCs because that's literally what he designed before.

            Barry is an autistic aussie who around 2015 decided that FF XV directed by Tabata was going to be the greatest game in the history of gaming and that the previous director Nomura was a hack.

            The game was a financial and critical success, although user reaction ended up being mixed to negative, especially from older series fans. The criticism and lukewarm response to the initial DLCs for the game caused the final DLCs to be cancelled, and Hajime Tabata "resigned" from Square Enix. The development team was diminished and rolled into a seperate new company, Luminous Productions.
            Shortly after Hajime Tabata "resigns", FF XIV's reboot becomes a major financial success, starting to rival WoW on the MMO market, and director/producer Naoki Yoshida is given the keys of an entire SE core Business Division and given a seat on the board of directors, as well as the reins over the new mainline FF title, FF XVI.

            From that point onward, Barry, who was already an S tier known shitposter at that point, especially in Famitsu, Kingdom Hearts and DMC threads, starts his crusade against FFXIV, XVI and Naoki Yoshida, who he calls "Yoshitpiss". Luminous Productions announces their first title, Forspoken, in 2020, and a few months later the first (rushed) FFXVI trailer drops.
            Since then, and especially since the second FF XVI trailer dropped in June 2022 and Forspoken was delayed 2 times, Barry has become increasingly deranged. He started posting negative OP threads for FF XVI multiple times a day, mostly "the least ambitious Final Fantasy" and variants.
            The 4th FF XVI trailer dropping at the Game Awards alongside the Forspoken demo sent him completely deranged, and during the holiday week he received multiple lifelong bans. He just ban evades and continues.

            Now, his game has flopped, the studio was closed, and the Square Enix president was fired over it. And so Barry keeps seething every day about FFXVI.

              Every game I enjoy and discuss, I play. Every game I don’t like I ignore the threads and avoid the game. Why is this so hard for autists to do?

                Because people dont play games they generally know they wont like, and they will talk shit because they dont want more of them.

              A decade and a few years ago you could’ve had a civilised discussion about the game, had it been releasing then. Now we have the same stale homosexuals parroting the same boring shit. Of course newbies like yourself can’t comprehend actual constructive discourse outside of shitposting, like the Black folk that you are.

    The hype you have may be real and high, but the amount of actual people actually interested in this game is abysmally low. Can't wait to see this game flop with less than a million sold by the end of 2023, hope that will probably shut you c**ts up.

    I'm only afraid that your average piss5 player (zoomer who bought a console for the first time ever) won't be into this type of medieval fantasy games with lots of politics and mature themes. younger generations suffer from ADHD and their attention span is abysmal so expecting them to be able to sit and watch something nuanced slowly unfolding is damn brave from square enix. for that reason 16 might end up as another financial failure or at best niche game which most of the old fans will probably blindly hate for being different (in this case having an action combat system) while some might see it in the similar light as some of us see ff12 which is a fricking masterpiece.

          The tone of the gameplay is obvious and it's EPIK button mashing sandwiched by walking sequences and door opening QTEs which is right up sony's moviegame alley. I don't even get how you can argue that the tone is somehow off when they have first party developers working on it and they're modeling it after GoW.

            we don't know much about the story besides some lore materials and geopolitics of the world, what nations are involved, what's specific about them and what is the major conflict driving the narrative. we also know that the game will be M rated which is very indicative of the type of player they want to sell this to, in this case that would be the fans of game of thrones or similar historical fiction shows and not your average cinematic movie game fan. 1st party sony games are very heavy on instant gratification and shallow, in your face themes that dumb people can enjoy just like all the marvel movies. tlou2 might be the rare exception because it's designed to make you angry instead but that's another topic. one thing that we know for sure is that just like all the other games in the series 16 will also be very much story focused with many hours of cutscenes and characters exchanging dialogues and what's shown so far hints at more mature, relatable, down to earth story with HEAVY emphasis on geopolitics and events that are much bigger than main character and his struggle. what I personally get from all the info we got so far is that the tone of the game and story will be a mix of ff12 and witcher 3 and I'm not sure marvel loving zombies on PS5 will like it in the numbers square and sony are hoping to. not realising this one on PC day 1 was a huge mistake. who knows maybe the rumors about sony buying them are true after all.

              Every sony moviegame is M rated or higher so that's just pointless coping. Nothing about XVI screams "mature" and we already have a good idea of the pacing thanks to lengthy showcases.

                not every, spiderman, horizon and uncharted are rated T. but others are rated M for violence not mature themes. there's nothing really mature in god of war, ghost of tsushima, tlou2 or days gone besides gratuitous violence.

                What can FF16 push to deserve the M rating outside of violence?
                I dont think there will be breasts out. That would lead to an AO rating in japan which is a death sentence.

                This is as far as they can go with Cero "D".
                >The game contains some sexual material: a character caressing and straddling a man in bed; references to prostitution—sexual moaning sounds in a brothel; dialogue such as, “I'd be happy to show you…provided I can afford it” and “…thank you for your service. My chamber is just upstairs." Some characters are depicted with partially exposed breasts and buttocks.

              They've stated multiple times, in interviews, that FF16 is Clive's story. The politics are only there for how it comes back to effect Clive. I don't think we're going to have a heavy political story here despite how the trailers presented it. Clive is detached from the whole political side unless he ends up reclaiming Rosaria, and suddenly has to become a leader.

Most nations revere Dominants, but the Iron Kingdom citizens view Dominants as unholy abominations who are to be put to death if discovered on their land, and in some countries Dominants are bound and forced to serve as weapons of war.
                as I've figured eikons and their dominants don't rule the world directly but are used by "kings and emperors" or whoever is in charge like we have atomic bombs in our world. their function is mostly for deterrence but they could also be used for war and conquering although the cost for using it is not really worth it.

                that's easy to answer if you think about it. kingdom is ruled by a king and people accept that king, after the king dies his rightful heir will sit on the throne and people will accept that. dominants are humans just like you and not all are driven by power or want to rule the world but lets say that some of them are. what are their options? they could only use their power for massive destruction so ask yourself what would that achieve? you can kill the king but you will also destroy the kingdom and its people. even if you manage to spare people they will never accept you as their rightful ruler, you will be an usurper and they will hate you or rebel. smarter thing to do would be to serve the king and enjoy all the riches of the kingdom as well as the respect of its people because you have something important that the kings could use against other kingdoms or to protect his own.

      ESRB says you need to age gate if the rating of the game is M or up, the content of the commercial/store page/whatever doesn't matter.

        it's a different art style combined with less detail. 7r's main character models are always going to look better than 16, but the average NPC's polygon count in 16 is going to be higher than the average NPC's poly count in 7r. 16's environments look miles more impressive than 7r's too graphically. it's just a matter of priorities and the difference in tech power between ps4 and 5.

      It's probably going to be a "yes and no" answer because it's currently looking like he'll transform into both Ifrit and Phoenix.

    The more I see of the world, the more I think it starts to feel more like Tactics Ogre/Ogre Battle than Final Fantasy, and I mean this as a compliment.

      Hm. Bottom is odd. Lvl 16, fighting alongside Jill, but no Garuda unlocked yet? The Garuda fight in the media tour was lvl 15.

        I find the lipsync in general to be inconsistent. Sometimes it looks good sometimes just entirely off. Maybe recording lag?

          Not lipsinc, it is the whole animation, Jill's problem isnt her mouth, but how her expression doesnt matches what the VA is saying at all. It is like if you had a bad actress trying to convey emotions just by knowing the script.

            Hmm, nah don't agree with that one. It's the lipsync that's the problem for me, eyes and all are fine.

              The moment where she sees clive again, her VA almost sounds like she is going to cry, for me it seems weird how if i just see her face animations, i would believe that it has been just 3 days since they saw each other for the last time. Not a lot of years.

        Comparing FFXVI with “The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom” yields more results towards XVI, but comparimg to just “tears of the kingdom” yields more results towards Zelda. However, one place FFXVI is still more searched, and that place is Japan.

    Sisters, will we finally have some proper romance between Jill and Clive? Will they have a happy ending?

      We know the game's "book" is written by a Joshua Rosfield. That could mean either Joshua survived and also survives the rest of the game's story, or Clive has a son he names after Joshua.
      The emblem on the book's cover is also the one used for the Hideaway, and on Cid's supposed gravestone.
      Honestly they're spoiling way too much of this game. But maybe they'll pull another Endwalker "ZODIARK IS THE FIRST TRIAL WHAT?"

    Question, do you know any big AAA game with large zones similar to FF16 that uses unreal? or will Rebirth next year be the first one?

      All I know is whatever your most optimistic vision for Rebirth - that's what we'll get. If anyone tries to be pessimistic about Rebirth you can be certain they're way off base.

      I think one of the key features of Unreal 5 is map rendering via Gamebryo style cells. I don't know if Rebrith is on 5 but if it is there you go.

        Because i was wondering if the trade to this XIV-like engine was even worth it, it seems to have the same problems UE4 had on ps4, but this one has on PS5 if we see how it still has lod issues. This is why im curious about how rebirth will deal with the same problems that XVI us facing right now.
