I just can't wait to play it. Looks like Square Enix know, this time, what they are doing!

Looks pretty underwhelming after Dragon Dogma 2

Looks like absolute trash. Looks generic and cheap.

Knew it would be compared to DD2, can’t say I didn’t expect that though.

Looks like medieval FF15, and that's not a criticism as I thought FF15 looked great. It will all come down to whether or not Squeenix can still tell a competent story.

That was kind of a snoozefest of a trailer, with 97% reused footage. Oh well.

I mean, they're both action games.
The difference is that Dragon's Dogma actually looks fun, and has much more going for.

I mean you have a DMC/Asura's Wrath clone and Dark Fantasy Zelda RPG adventure. Dogma is going to be more replayable.
FFXVI has big shoes to fill and I don't think it's going to scratch the FF itch people are still clamoring for since the beginning of FFXIII.
The only big FF game people seem to like has been FFVIIR.
I think SE has lost what made Final Fantasy, Final Fantasy.
Such a shame that the only franchise from Square I look forward to is Dragon Quest.

Hi everyone! It’s that time again, for me to whine about the same thing.
I saw even more footage of scenes of in-engine assets drenched in CGI effects. The sparkles in that last shot, the plumes, the water trails by the boat in the ocean, the icicle effects, most of the explosions, etc.
Why? It’s not “the power of the PS5,” and everyone can see that there’s certain scenes that look better than others anyway. I mean the difference between a regular cutscene and the Shiva Vs Titan scenes is night and day.
Why not have scenes that are 100% handled by your INTERNAL CG STUDIO. Why. WHY.
Goodbye gorgeous CG cinematics, until FFVII Rebirth.

I can’t see a difference
I know a bunch of people are gonna reply to this saying “ACTUALLY I THINK Clive looks better in these,” “ummm CG ruins immersion,” “ummm actually CG cutscenes suck because there has been ONE game in recent memory, FFVIIR, where there was a discrepancy in art styles between in-game and CG models,” “ummm disc space,” “ummmm no one uses CG anymore except Blizzard, Activision, Bungie, SEGA, Square Enix, Nintendo, Microsoft, and some other companies,” etc. and idc. Just let me have my unhinged rant. Fine, take away party members, but you’re gonna take away my CG cutscenes, and you’re still gonna use your internal CG studio, but for a bunch of half-measure cutscenes so you can PR speak about the “power of the PS5”? Bye.

The game looks better with each showing the 22nd can't come soon enough.
You and disc two are very predictable.

The facial animations in the cutscenes really look abysmal. How cheap are they?

I personally I have no issue with their faces, in fact I love direction they are going with the character designs.

Very cheap looking game isn't it?
Nothing about this game looks like "Final Fantasy". Each FF game had a unique aesthetic and quirkyness, this is very generic medival fantasy. Looks like quite the bore. This is so weak and forgettable compared other FF games.

This must smoothest development cycle for mainline games since decades and Love devs's confidence in this game....you just love to see it.This trailer was dopesuper hyped about the idea that a new mainline FF will be released in a matter of weeks and the team was able to fully create their vision without the development issues that ruined FFXIII and FFXV. Can't wait

Takai said the Main Story is around 35 hours if that's all you do. But if you do everything it's supposed to be 80 hours. Yoshi-P mentioned almost all the side quests (barring hunts) are tied to the lore and main story some how, so doing side content will flesh out the story further. So I think if you take your time with it, it'll feel meaty enough.

Have they confirmed there's fights in this game that take less than 5 minutes to finish? I kinda like one hitting enemies in my final fantasy games as you level up, but I feel like so much of what I've seen so far is summons clashing in cinematic effects, and even some regular battles they have to attack the enemy a number of times over a minute to stagger it then they need to attack it more while staggered to get its health down then they need to attack it again to finish it off. I just hope there's some stuff you can fight with your regular swords and win right away too, I worry it'll get tiresome to draw on the summons too often.

Huh? Dragon's Dogma was released in 2012.
FF16 already has a good chunk of gameplay videos out there.
Good troll, you actually got me!

FF16 is just action though.

Then you're comparing a game you never played to some old game. Not any better.
