Man, remember how colorful the world of the original Final Fantasy was?

It's hilarious that Dissidia of all games was more respectful of the source material than this.

If there wasn't garland/chaos in there, you couldn't convince me it's final fantasy at all....

Considering there's timetravel, i really hope we'll see more interesting design along the way cause damn, it looks so boring...

YOu have a full final fantasy bestiary to use, go crazy with it dammit, what we seen is so meeeeh

I do like the black character design, but the rest, oof

Nah. Not over a spinoff not living up to expectations over its first trailer.
GaaS Babylon's Fall for PS3 ? Balan Wonderland ? Marvel ? Handling of classics ala the announced FF games ? I mean Chrono Trigger is not available on modern systems either.

Don't know what they are smoking over there.

What if the whole game is in the mind of Chaos/the guy who would become Chaos?

And that is why everything looks sort of off relative to FF1's Style/Era?
(Seriously, why is everyone wearing T-Shirts and stuff in a time period that should be the pre-mideval/fantasy style world of FF1)

I've been cool with Nomura for years but i finally think it's time to kick his ass into the retirement home. I cannot BELIEVE these are the designs he came up with for a game set in FF1's world
Yeah... it's the most uninspired I've seen from him. Seriously, look at the concept art for FFI. You can go wild with it, we would love it. Instead, we got...whatever the fuck this is

The dialogue shown in this trailer is so comically edgy, it makes WH40k dialogue look measured and subtle.

Even Nomura's ott Batman designs would have been better than this. At least they had personality...

Don't know if anyone saw the press release, but by "soon" they meant the demo is out today.

I can't believe Tetsuya Nomura is the character design... like... he designed one of the most iconic looking characters in the whole industry... what has happened here ?!

This feels like designs Nomura created but ultimately shelved back in 2008-2012 that he sent to Team Ninja as a joke and they didn't get the joke and they decided to make into a video game.

Man, I was incredibly excited about the idea/concept of this...

Terrible showing, but still have faith in Team Ninja. Hope the demo is good.

I don't think they could've chosen more off putting dialogue. And the main character design. Oof.

Square-Enix honestly should only allow the FFXIV creative team to handle writing for all of its titles from now on.

I hate that Nomura is so heavily involved in nearly everything Square Enix does now. Thank fuck at least FFXVI got others.

These character designs are awful. When Nomura's character designs are seen as bad it's usually because they're too gaudy which I actually usually like. These on the other hand are dull as hell. What the hell happened here?

Remember when this was supposed to be exclusive, makes most people excited, SE conference was gonna have a massive leak, and that was too bad because it was gonna be awesome? how come insiders get all these wrongs lol
