NEW TGS 2012 Trailer

[Alkar]

Hmm that's Hein not Amon, why are they calling him that? They are the same model in FFIII but Hein is a boss you have to fight and it has the same palette of this one.
Hopefully this means that the Crystal Tower has more FFIII bosses, I'd love to see Cloud of Darkness as the final boss.

Reminds me of this badass.

I see the dialogue still sucks.
Pseudo-Archaic English is neither immersive nor pleasant to read when every single NPC speaks like that.

You must hate reading fantasy books like Game of Thrones/A Song of Ice and Fire then.

Had the same thought, lol. It's not like when you have a fantasy setting only some people speak like that and then the others go "Yo dude I'm gonna fuck you up with my badass sword".

[TacoTaru]

PS3 combat layout looks better than I thought it would, but I still don't like it. I hate the PS3's XMB so this one is just as fugly to me.

[Eagleheart]

I think this archaic manner of speech does wonders for the feel of fantasy games. War of the Lions was the best localization ever.

That is all.

That is ****ing all.

EDIT: HOLY COW is that a DRG chocobo?!

[miokomioko]

Most likely. The BLM chocobo looks entirely stupid though... I hope they tone that one down from the concept we've seen.

[Raldo]

At least the DRG-chocobo can see out of his damn helmet

You can take that as my distaste for the WHM-chocobo's eye-covering hood and/or the DRG AF hat's eye-covering helmet.

There's a square enix booth at NY comic con. They have a trailer for realm reborn but it's just more of the same. That's all I can see ffxiv related so far but they're still setting up.

[Kurokikaze]

Haiku that Reinhart translated from the JP forums hints at a PS3 trailer coming "soon".

[Grey Jorildyn]

I'll be dropping by comic-con for an hour around like 3:30. I'll make a ruckus at the booth!

What is the purpose of a lvl 40 dungeon? Unless it scales, people will just avoid it and lvl to 50 for 'endgame'.

[Gokulo]

What's the point of any mid-level content in that case? It will be a source of exp and gear for people before 50 obviously.

Its content for people that you know... might not have played FFXIV before 1.0 and gotten all there classes lvl 50? Mid-game content is ridiculously sparse in 1.0, basically all the content is at the higher level with a couple milestone quests here and there sprinkled in the middle and one single instanced dungeon, they stated they wanted to rectify this. Not to mention they already confirmed dungeon content is level locked and people would sync down to the level of the dungeon so they always remain at least somewhat challenging. Can't just use a lvl 50 and solo through the dungeon since it will pair you down to the appropriate level.

Edit: Holy Hell at the official forums... I stayed out of those grass threads but now some of the usual suspects are reverting the PS3 UI thread into a graphics pissing match between MMOs >< The nice bit of info we got inside it though is that there is new interviews from Dengeki Playstation and Famitsu inside the magazines on top of the two already released from gamewatch and gamer. Also someone probably guessed what the new dungeon is likely going to be; Ipsen's Castle from FFIX.

[Gokulo]

Yoshida wants you to plaaaaay...

NPCs in Limsa and Uldah generally don't speak that way. It's perpetual talk-like-a-pirate-day in Limsa, but Uldah is much closer to "marketplace" English.

Sweet jesus that does look like Ipsen's Castle... These guys are going hard with the fanservice.

[solracht]

Didn't know a NES version was in the works.

Ipsen's Castle looks cool, hopefully the tokens from the low/mid level dungeons will have some use at 50. Going to be sad if half of the new dungeons are a one time thing while leveling.

[xopher]

If you guys are seriously complaining about the PS3 graphics, I don't even know what to say.
