Happy to hear you got to play it! Just wanna clarify a bit at 17:15 for the world exploration and 30fps. The build we played for this open zone was in fact older and locked to 30fps during exploration and does raise up in combat. Which you already mentioned. But in the final build its for sure 60fps in the zones. Yoshi P showed us this in the zone exploration demo for PAX East a few months ago. Hope that helps some understand a bit.

The "roller-coaster" description can be applied to the story to. Going by what Ben starr (Clive voice actor) said when talking to Yoshida and Koji, the story will have subtle, quiet, and light moments to balance out the crazy and dark moments. That also applies to the characters. Clive does not sound like a one-note "edgy" character when you listen to ben starr talk about him in that same discussion with Yoshida and Koji.

I see this as 100% step forward rather than back since it allows for strong character expression. The party outside of a narrative standpoint in ff games were meant to fill the different jobs/classes. In this game, Clive already fills out being a red mage with Cid looking like a blm. Either way, 15 initially didn't have controllable party members and them adding it did nothing to change the gameplay in any meaningful way.

​@@randomuseroftheday362 For me, every FF is a story about a group of people coming together and facing a common threat. If FFVII was just Cloud's story, then I don't think it would be as memorable and beloved as it is. My problem isn't that the AI is controlling part of my party. It's the fact I can't choose who I want in that party and who I'm playing as. You're right, a party in the old school was mainly classes. But they had their own stories to tell and you had the freedom to pick and choose who you want to use. It's clear to me that you value more gameplay, or else you wouldn't be calling the rest of the party of FFVII as "materia slots". And that's fine. But it's not why I like Final Fantasy, personally. FFXVI is going to be an amazing game, I can tell. But it's not for me. It's not what I wanted for a new Final Fantasy. And I don't think I'll ever get that Final Fantasy that I want cause I've been waiting for it since FFX.

Thanks for your insight on the game Max. So excited for this game!

A modern sword combat game with aerial combat? I’m in!

Those that says ''oh 1 button combo'' never played Devil may cry and don't know how this type of games works or they are blind, and people that says ''It's not turn based so it's not a FF, or it's not a RPG so it's not a FF'' clearly don''t understand how a FF is, it's the story, the environment, the growth of the characters and the magic that sorrounds all that makes a game a Final Fantasy, gameplay was preatty much different every time, many just played one of them and thinks to now how a ff is.

I think what i dig the most about ffxvi is the vibe.. its a japanese take on traditional western fantasy which i love. I feel like its actually kind of a fresh take. Which is also why i really dig the fromsoft games they have western style and asthetic but with a japanese twist

I believe the build they played at PAX was 60fps throughout the entire gameplay so I'm assuming the build Max played was specifically made for the preview and is slightly older.

I coulda sworn that when they showed the game at PAX, the exploration was in 60 when they put it in performance

In the PAX demo the open world exploration was running at 60fps, so I feel these new preview build might have been a build older than PAX since it sounds odd that exploration is stuck at 30 while combat is at 60 when the game literally lets you choose between fidelity or performance.

I have faith YoshiP and his team can deliver on story, characters and music. 14 has practically been carrying Squeenix for a decade now because these guys *get it*. But the fact the combat sounds like it took all the right lessons from DMC without mindlessly copying it and adding its own flavor with the magic and summons? Im so excited.

this is the sad thing its not the game that puts me off playing it, its the fact that by the time PC gamers get to play this 1. Everyone will know everything about it, its near impossible these days to avoid spoilers, and 2. Ill probably forget it exists by then.

19:48 Too many stories nowadays have an enormous cast and ultimately hurts it in the long run, because characters keep fighting for screentime, and when they get to their big dramatic moments I don't care about them, since the story never gave each character enough time to shine. So this game focusing on fewer characters sounds like a good thing.

The nature environments look so amazing.

Finally Max uploads 4k VIDEO!!!

if it's locked to 30 at release, I won't bother playing it until it's fixed. Excellent video Max!

The BGM used for this is FFXIV Heavensward Overworld Battle Theme

I haven't been this excited for an FF game since FF X

makes me wonder why they didnt go with something similar to X, as that crafting was so much fun to grind for and mess around.

Love the background music is from a dungeon from XIV

max mentioning the control schemed of the game and it only screams DMC mostly Dante. Square for weapon attacks (sword), Triangle for guns(magic), circle for style special actions and of course x for jumping. I hope combo variations from the skill you get are similar and the combos work depending on the input to the attack button, just like the classic square, square, pause square and other variations like that.

Not surprised to hear square struggles with good side quests

Already hearing attacks described as Stinger and Helm Breaker, I think this is going into the right direction. ^^ Also it seems like the summons are styles that change the function of the circle button, just change the attack to the triangle button and the "gun" to the square button, where it belongs and I think we're good here. 16:50 was that an Enemy Step-like jump cancel?

I know it's an older build and won't actually work this way, but hearing that it toggled framerate caps made me want a mode that automatically toggles between fidelity and performance where each would matter most. I personally don't need 60fps out of combat, and I would prefer a bump to LODs, shadow distance, and resolution while simply exploring. The distant landscapes/backdrops have been a big part of the mainline FF art direction since FFX yet they never consistently hold up to scrutiny. An increase to distant details/shadows won't necessarily fix every aspect of this longstanding issue, but it would help.

Im glad you mentioned Tactics since people like to parrot the idea that FF games are all this immature made for little kids games when there have been games that tackled more adult themes, tactics especially. You have games like 4 & 6 that also did that as well, but did it in a way a younger person could digest and understand. You don't need gratuitous violence, swear words, sex and copious amounts of blood to tell a mature story.

You don't need those things, but going out of your way to avoid all of those things is going to blunt the realism of your story a bit and make it seem "young adultish". Tactics got away with it because it was a war story that didn't really call for a lot of sex, but the scenes of violence were pretty brutal for little pixels. Dudes would run each other through with swords. You can't do that with modern graphics and not have blood, it would look ridiculous.

Somehow I had never actually played FF7 until the “remake” and there’s no coincidence that I wa drawn in by the story, the characters and the world. I hope this game makes me feel something, I must admit….so far from the limited trailers I’ve seen…..I ain’t feelin’

The gameplay is definitely top tier, and insanely fun. I appreciate how the story so far really comes off like watching a television show - almost out of Vikings, or some show with royalty and castles. It doesn’t come off as the most original, but the gameplay definitely compensates. Even I was a bit overwhelmed by the amount of things you can do. There’s so much room to put this on par with DMC and Bayonetta. It’s best played on Frame rate mode. Graphics mode just doesn’t do the combat justice.

The exploration being 30 fps might feel super odd when you're constantly switching between combat and exploration. It's not the end of the world if that's how it is in the final game, especially if it just runs well, but I do hope it changes to a full 60 fps for everything

@@Steelix371 With the switching between combat and exploration, that might even indicate that you can select a 4k/30 1440/60 split specifically for people who want to tradeoff the higher resolution visuals on a 4k screen but maintain 60fps for combat.

Glad to hear about this game from Max of all people Also glad to hear that ff14 music in the background

Of all the themes its the HW battle theme which is one of my fav orchrolls in XIV

The only thing that doesn’t please me is the Grey Art Direction in this…. Sounds like epic!

The only thing that took the wind out of my sails to diving into this at launch... was Armored Core 6 launching in August only 2 months later. It's the only thing I've been more hyped for than FF XVI.

This turn towards action is my sort of thing, I like turn based games but when a series goes on for this long the change ups are welcome. Can't wait to get my hands on it.

They haven't been turn based in a decade, my dude.

@@KirbyPhelpsPK Did we just forget that FF13 exists? You can say what you want about Auto Battle buttons but it still is turn based, there's a timer, you get hit, you hit back. There's no freedom of movement.

​@@gvulture1277 Alright, 13 years then. But I still viewed FF13 as an example of them trying to experiment with and move away from the system they had, even if it was technically turn based.

Looks fantastic! I don’t like the sound of the FPS switching though, hopefully that was just in this demo build and by the time the full game releases next month there will be a proper performance mode

I think it's just this demo, the pax demo showed 60fps consistently

They did say that the hard mode would have monsters only seen in later parts of the game populate the more starter areas to mix it up. So that’s one way FF mode does it’s hard difficulty

We are getting some pretty good looking games this generation but i feel FFXVI is a cut above, finally a game that really looks "Next Gen".
