"I really don't care about anything else they're going to show"
BRO SAME!
Hold on. Just wait till you see the new ps5 Spiderman. That one!.... Bruv!.... Go check
I DON'T CARE ABOUT ANYTHING ELSE JOSHUA MATTERS ❤️❤️❤️💗🙄❤️💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💞💞💞💞💗💗💗💗💗💗💝💝💝✨✨✨
I literally exited out of the stream after the XVI trailer lmao, I had to collect myself and focus back in on reality.
*SAME*
I lost hype on the other games after FF16 and proceed to watch reaction videos instead lol.
imagine them showing a versus reboot after this
So cool to see another medieval FF. It's been too long.
Yeah but i wish they put more huff into it. looks boring
Yeah boi!!
@@itsbeyondme5560 if THAT looks boring then what is your idea of fun?
I look forward to playing this game.
@@itsbeyondme5560 To be fair, we only saw a small snippet of the game so there's no telling if it will be good or not. One thing I did notice was the battle scenes only had one character at a time. I really hope the game opens up at some point and the characters form a party. It would be really weird if the game just bounces you back and forth between characters doing their own thing in different places and they don't come together as a party at some point.
Dude called it at like second 1. A legend lol
i did the same with some friends in discord, half joking, but it didn't help that there had been rumors/leaks that this was going to happen
I had never heard of any rumors or seen leaked pictures and I was as fast as he was the sec Shiva was mentioned and went ''FF16!''. I am also a legend.
Takaro i knew it was FF16 as soon as the camera pan out enough to see the guy’s face, that haircut and face just SCREAMS Final Fantasy lol
Meh. As soon as you see that eye and hair, you can guess (or at least take a bet) that it's Final Fantasy.
At least, that's what I did. I thought it was Noctis at first though before it zoomed out more and we saw his whole face. That's when I knew it was 16 (because of the rumors too).
Had to reupload due to some audio issues! I apologize!
It looks like they are not playing it as gods but more like naruto jinshurikes style . Where every nation or in this case every side has a summoner or at least someone who can summon them . Like that boy had ifrit in him . The main character seems to have the phoenix summon . In his combat you can see the wing of the phoenix in one of the attacks
Love to see your vids keep it up please
It’s all good ur reaction is still incredible 🤣
Apology not accepted.
This will mean war between our peoples.
Hibryd Seven gotta summon bahamut 👀
This game looks amazing. It's about time we got a medieval Final Fantasy again. Let's just hope the story and characters are written well.
Yoshida will probably fix offline FF, too
looks boring
I agree the gameplay looks dope af I like that it’s dark too.
It's BeYoND mE It’s the character designs. They need to redo it especially what appears to be the protagonist. I like the guy who appears to be the antagonist. I really hope he’s playable.
ffxvi is in good hands in story and character writing.
It's that kind of passion for Final Fantasy that makes me love this channel so much. My friend, you're awesome.
I thought the same when I see the first video of him true FF lover👍
Ok, so obviously we're looking at two time periods here, one when the younger version of the MC has to protect the prince, and one later, more hardened version of him (who knows if both are playable and what that balance looks like). But at the end, when he says "I'll kill you" is he saying it to the prince he was once sworn to protect? Because that would be a pretty dope storyline. You protect a little princeling for the first half, then he goes super ifrit berserk style, destroys the world and you vow to stop him at all costs.
i was thinking of something similar and i would love it this way if the characters are well written
Uh...... That would be way too much like another game from another very popular RPG serie.... The whole "I have to kill the kid I used to protect" thing, I mean.
Not gonna tell what game I'm talking about to not spoil it, but yeah.... If you're right, I'd be disappointed.
You might very well be right about the "two" guys at the end probably being the same person a few years apart though. They look way too similar, the "second dude" even having some wringles under his eyes the other guy doesn't have.
Or maybe they're twins who took different paths? But that'd scream FF12.
If you watch closely, you can see Ifrit implied to have kill Joshua. So definitely revenge. Unless... ?
pretty sure Ifrits dominant kills Joshua and that's who the MC swears to kill
@@isaac7788 Not sure about that. Look the trailer again and got to 3"13 (on official stream). When ifrit is rampaging you can hear someone shouting "Joshua wake up". (oh and go see it on IGN because night prince is also shouting in his video so you won't hear the guy^^)
Just seeing this means so much to me. Ever since I became an invested Final Fantasy fan in 2011, there have been the same three games around to look forward to for me. It was always 14 and some variant of 13 and versus 13. Versus 13 turned into 15, eventually, but it didn’t feel like something groundbreaking. This is the first time I am able to witness an entirely original nee Final Fantasy world unfold while I am part of the fandom, and I'm already loving every second of it.
Meister Xehanort you should go back and play 8,9, and 12. Those were the best.
@@SouthernHadoken don't forget about 10
Woah Woah I didn’t forget anything lol
@@SouthernHadoken you don't like 10?._.
Woah Woah nowhere as much as 6 , 8, 9, and 12. It a matter of preference. Hell i don’t even like 7 ...🤣.
This game checks two things I've been wanting out of a major FF game for a LONG time
1. A dark and somber story. I've been wanting a dark and melancholic modern FF game with heavy themes about politics and this looks like it'll be exactly that. I wanted this ever since 06 with Versus, never got it. XV had glimpses of this, but never offered that grand political FF story I imagined it would. Then I saw Agni's Philosophy and how dark it looked, and I hoped that would be where FF went, but that never happened.
This looks like it took some inspiration from Agni's Philosophy in terms of the look of the world, but it also has obvious inspiration from XIV and XV, offering a plot heavy on intrigue and grandiose themes alongside a heavy focus on the summons. All great things in my book.
2. For as much as I loved XV and how flashy its combat system looked, it never had any real depth to it. Even having a combat system that has 1/4th the depth of a game like DMC5 would be enough, but SE have hired Capcom veteran Ryato Suzuki, who worked on the aforementioned DMC5 along with Dragon's Dogma and Monster Hunter to be the battle designer for this game, so it goes without saying there's gonna be a lot of complexity to this combat system to appease hack and slash fans like myself.
I just hope there’s a party system though with character switching and we don’t just play as that character.
@@AndSpaceY I wouldn't count on it, just based off what they've shown us so far. It mostly looks like we're playing as the one character, though there was a short glimpse of another NPC off to the side in one of the fight scenes they showed, so it's still very possible. I'm fine with it either way tbh, as long as they make the combat they decide to go with fun to play!
Greg Sonnier I guess it’s too soon to tell. For all we know what we watched was just the first two chapters. Someone also pointed out on Reddit that the FFXIII E3 2006 trailer only featured Lightning. So I won’t discount it yet.
Andrew Brown You gotta think though: they’re already doing that with VII Remake. Plus in XV you only played as Noctis (before Royal Edition) too.
Why don't you just play Final Fantasy XII then? That game had all that
My take on this:
+ MC: Bodyguard soldier of the Y kingdom's special force, secretly a lost/illegitimate/bastard prince of Y kingdom. Have the power of "Ifrit."
+ Blonde Boi: Prince of the Y kingdom, have the power of "Phoenix."
= Game of Thrones + Witcher 3 + Final Fantasy: Age of Crystals & Fire =
FFXVI logo represent:
+ Phoenix VS Ifrit,
+ Red Fire VS Blue Fire
+ Phoenix symbol: Dormant/Protect/Warm/Rebirth
+ Ifrit symbol: Rage/Attack/Cold/Death
I'd add a bit of Attack on Titan in there, just in regards to the dark fantasy vibe.
I Lowkey think the MC has the power of the Phoenix while the prince has ifrit, one of the attacks with the mc is of a phoenix wing I think during the gameplay section
the MC says "I am Joshua's shield", Joshua is the kid who turns into Ifrit, and you can see the MC using phoenix's wings in his attacks.
@@INeedJesus55 bruh
@@INeedJesus55 Nokia Yoshida is producing it, The guy who literally saved Square from collapsing, brought us Heavensward and Shadowbringers, he has the receipt to back it up, the game is going to be epic and you will still play it "normie"
After years of downgrading the importance and use of summons, it looks like they'll be the main villains of the game. They're vendetta is complete. Haha
from the looks of it people turn into them
Yeah, but that dude turning into Ifrit didn't seem to enjoy it =(
Let's go! FF12/14 vibes with a hint of 15.
Which is a shame, they ran out of ideas
If this thing have anything from 12, i'll buy a playstation just to get it.
@@KayderimGameplays 12 is one of my favourites.
@@Mdgr_zolom Same, it's the only FF i have 600 hours of playtime. Wish they would make another game with the relaxing gambit system
@@KayderimGameplays Yeah that's the dream! it'll probably never happen though because of the negative reaction it received.
For some reason, this reminds me of Attack of Titan where people wields an immense power of Summons inside them and use them for war and politics. One character mentioned their target kill is the "Shiva dominant" which means someone uses it for war and other nations perhaps has others too.
Don't give me hopes like that, dude!
Actually you are right lol. The producer from FF14 will be involved in FF16. For those that played FF14, this trailer is nothing but reference mania. The story will basically be Eikons which is same as Primals from FF14. They are summoned by sacrifices of Aether (Life) or be transformed into. Looks like Joshua has the power to control or become Ifrit in the trailer. As a protagonist, you have the power to absorb them and use it during battle. If you look closer, you can see Levin attacks (Ramuh) and slip stream (Garuda) in one of the combos. So the story will most likely be like FF14 where you have the blessing to take down those Eikons and absorb them.
You mean, like , summoners?
The night "am just joking"
Sony"we don't jok here sun"
Theory: this is the fall of Solheim from ffxv. Evidence I can pick out: a new version of the theme crystalline chill (the menu theme of ffxv) plays in the background at 1:56. Their is also talk about the crystal protecting them from the blight which is oddly reminiscent of the crystal being used to dispel the star scourge in ffxv. Also the Imperials having Dragoons.
I thought about the same but we might be wrong.
ReallyBigMistake yeah, but we can hope
It does look like it has medieval themes like you were hoping it didn't, but that combat looks BEAUTIFUL.
Also, I saw it said "Also available on PC" at the bottom where it said exclusively for PlayStation. Weird haha
says "PlayStation Console exclusive" - how many consoles are there aside from Xbox, Sony and Nintendo? =D
exclusively not for Xbox.
Ah, that's honestly hilarious. Emphasizing not for X-Box haha. Now here's a question, will you be able to play it on the Microsoft PC Game Pass, because that would be so silly I'd love it
Note the asterix. It's a timed exclusive.
@@Laughing_Individual the asterisk is at the bottom which says also for PC, not timed at all, just PS5 and PC, maybe read first then comment 😉
“Oh my body, oh my body” - NSP 2020
"I really don't care about anything else they're going to show"
I said the same shit lol I was like: Aw! Final Fantasy 16! THAT'S ALL I NEED TO KNOW! THANK YOU!
Bro I know how you feel I cant wait to see the dominant summon with the Crystal's. And icons and looks like job classes. I'm just overwhelmed
So, they announced Last Imagination: The One Before The Seventeenth, But After the Fifteenth. Good on you, Circle Equinox.
One of the best and most wholesome FF channels on CZcams. Love the content and streams, NSP 👍
They leaned hard on the use of summons after a few games where they really felt unimportant.
To be fair to XV, it did focus a fair on summons and gave them enough plot importance. This looks like it's taking it even further.
@@aninfinitemindofmusicandreams they are taking it further, the past few games used summons in the gameplay but it felt like meh, not that tide changing imo
@@kynlykereh2910 to be fair, it's not easy to keep summons as really strong deity-like entities while also making them available in a real time action gameplay.
Well, if you think about it:
Final Fantasy VIII had their Guardian Forces be part of the story (not a big part but still - characters' memories were connected to their use - if I remember well).
Final Fantasy IX had Eidolons as major part of the story.
Final Fantasy X had Aeons as major part of the story.
I haven't played FF XI (I'm sad, I know) - so I can't say.
Final Fantasy XII didn't do much with them (again, if I remember well).
Final Fantasy XIII had Summons as part of some internal character development but not as main part of the story, I'd say.
Final Fantasy XIV (ARR) is clearly about them.
So, maybe 12 and 13 series didn't put too much emphasis on them.
@@PedroOliveira-sl6nw FFXI is similar to FFXIV in that many of the Beastmen races are hostile to the Enlightened races (Hume, Elvaan, Galka, Tarutaru, Mithra). But, unlike the Beastman races are far stronger in FFXI, having scored major victories and taking lots of territories. The Shadow Lord leads this loose Beastman alliance and is the final boss of the vanilla FF11 game. Many creatures of FF11 were used in FF14 & FF14RR.
Finally the Summons in FF11 are kinda like avatars, known as the Sleeping Gods and have a connection with the Goddess Altana (creator of Vana'diel, FF11's world).
As for FF12 the Summons (called Espers in this game) are powerful beasts associated with the Occuria (like gods). The Espers are 24 and are divided in 11 Scions of Light & 11 Scions of Darkness along with Ultima & Zodiark. The 11 Esper-Scions of Light are mentioned in the Codex with their titles but not much is known about them.
The 11 Esper-Scions of Darkness, led by Ultima rose up against the gods but lost and were cast down. Zodiark was the most powerful Esper but the gods feared his growth and kept him as a child. You fight 5 Espers as part of the main story (as guardians of ruins associated with the Occuria and Raithwall, the Dynast King) while the other 8 are optional. Some are very difficult and some are end-game bosses.
As for FF13 the Summons (Eidolons) were created by Etro, the goddess of Death & Afterlife. After the party becomes L'Cie, Etro uses the Eidolons as trials for the characters. If they pass they form a bond with them (Lightning bonds with Odin). In FF13-2 Lightning is now the Chosen of Etro and has some Eidolons in her command. Etro's power has greatly diminished by now as she died. Caius kills the Shiva sisters (Stiria & Nyx) while Lightning uses Odin in a losing battle. Eventually Odin dies as well. It is assumed that the other Eidolons are dead in this war against Lightning & Caius. By FF13-3 Lightning Returns, there is almost no trace of Eidolons since Caius has won/infected the world with Chaos & any trace of Etro's power has been wiped out (including Valhalla, Etro's Realm). Almost no trace, since Odin is reincarnated into the Angel of Valhalla chocobo through his bond with Lightning & a lengthy story quest.
Dude YES! This game is EXACTLY what I personally wanted XVI to be. It even has british voice acting, HYYYYYYYYYYPE
I think I've watched about..hmm, let's say, 150 reactions for FFXVI.....and this is my fave. Your hype gets me super hype! :)
The FF community will be buzzing for months until next years info.
Hope Producer Yoshi-P and the Director don't put too much stress and pressure on themselves .
I hope they take their time to develop the game into a full AWESOME experience.
Considering how gritty this looks, that makes me even more disappointed how there isn't a trail of bodies in FF7R
Ohhh, Finally someone said it! 💯
I too am a bit disappointed with 7R
The original had everything set. I'll never forget the trail of blood in the Shinra company when your about to meet The President. and the Midgar Zolem Serpent impaled on that tree. That made me legit fear Sephiroth.
But 7R lost its grit. Now it is feeling a bit like 13.😖 I couldn't take 13 serious. It was cringy. Didn't believe anything that was happening there. The threat didn't feel like a threat. 🙄 And the group acted more Like kids pretending to be grownups. The first playthrough with Snow was horrible. The way That NORA, fighters acted when they were shooting against those Psicom military troops...🤦🏾♂️ I knew from there on forth the rest will be Anime kindergarten Ninja daycare bullshit.
Not saying everything needs to be gritty. But dang. At least make me believe the threat is real🤦🏾♂️
I hope 7R part two steps their game up. The fight of Avalanche against the Turks on the Pillar was better, but not quite there. Like I said. The original was serious. It made me believe. And That game was Polygon freaking Lego People!.
FF7R. Make me believe!
It's only the first trailer
@@the7thseven873
I enjoyed 90% of the story. As far as plot goes my only issues were Cloud and the Whispers. Cloud it makes sense because this is very early in the story and as such will develop slower as a result, I kinda wish he was portrayed as sarcastic, but as some people notes, he's imitating the reflection that of what Zack had on him.
The Whispers I don't think were inherently bad, it does give explanation to the creative liberties that the developers give themselves. However the way they were unveiled was painfully rushed, and everything they did that initially felt more organic was instead feeling really rushed later. Such as when they saved AVALANCHE from all the deadly encounters they had on the motorcycle chase.
I don't mind the changes if the compilations can be incorporated to enrich the story, but I really hope they don't take drastic measures to change the characters and their fates.
Otherwise, I genuinely enjoy the game, and I've played through on normal 6x already
Blame China, they censored everything
Totally agree. A little disappointed in FF7R1
Dude, it is no shit that Sony is walking away with the championship title belt before the launch even happens. As if the hardware of the PS5 wasn't impressive enough with the custom flash controller SSD and the ridiculous depth the tempest sound engine is going to offer in the future. As if the plethora of exclusives before this event wasn't enough. Now we get FF XVI as an exclusive.
I'm not hating on Xbox. It's an impressive piece of hardware in a different way, but holy shit there is no reason to buy an Xbox at launch for me at all at this point. Sony is really shaping up to have a hell of a generation ahead of it.
Xbox has bottlenecks, PS5 doesn't. Mark Cerny designed a wonderful console.
We are seeing console exclusive after console exclusive from third parties before a console launch. While I don't think third parties do this for free, they are obviously getting some money from Sony in form of moneyhat. But very small amount because it's cheaper and faster to develop for PS5. We have yet to see a game from Xbox Game Studios running on Xbox Series X in realtime. Where are the games? Teraflops this, velocity architecture that. Nothing is more important for a console then to challenge bottlenecks to make it faster for developers (See PS1 and PS2). People are really underrestimating PS5's custom-made SSD and I/O Throughput. Reality speaks for itself than drama and fake rumors. Different developers have already expressed concerns about Xbox Series X and S.
Haha, while watching my first thought was "I wonder what NSP thinks"
Has anyone else picked up that this is what Versus 13 was supposed to be but never materialised. Each of the houses presenting a summon. Lucis family was supposed to be death originally which will be the new bad character in this. Main character is phoenix representing rebirth. Also much darker with adult themes like Versus was supposed to be. Exciting stuff
NGL, this was pretty hype XD The whole conference for me though was outstanding, I loved just about the whole thing, especially Spooder Man and Demon's Souls
I'm really torn over this game. On one hand I've grown to love the more futuristic side of Final Fantasy and I was looking forward to seeing some never-before-seen worlds once again. But then on the other hand this looks like Final Fantasy 1-5 in modern tech and that is really interesting as well, even if it looks a bit generic... Hard to say. I know it'll still be amazing game no matter what, because I have yet to truly dislike any mainline entry in FF.
@Lain Maybe yeah to some degree. But then again there weren't many RPGs around at the time, so it wasn't as generic in the gaming landcape. And even the original Final Fantasy still has a distinct art style of its own with with its side-view battlers and Amano-illustrated monster designs and art. I don't mind generic dragons and fantasy, but the overall art direction is very close to dozens of dark fantasy games we've had for past 10 years or so. By comparison, FF9 and FF12 were also medieval sword stuff, but their worlds and art style made them very unique. I can't really say what games would look similar to them. It's too early to tell how FF 16 will turn out, I'm sure I'll love it regardless (like I've done with every single mainline ff so far) but just voicing some concern.
It's crazy how last gen the characters look after they released FF7R. Like how do you compete?
It's years away, it will look better
@@eazypeezy4505 That's a fair point, we don't know release yet
@@tacoluvr1568 yes, FF7R didn't look as good as it did in the reveal as it was in the release too.
@@eazypeezy4505 Yeah I remember that one lol
No just the characters the whole visual quality is significantly low compared to prev gen let alone next one. This game is for PS5 but looks worse than PS4's !
SE's concurrent Project Athia looks *a lot* better than this so the it being "still in early phase" argument won't hold _much_ because to me this seems to be more of a technical reason rather than polish i.e the engine used.
What I'm worried more about is the engine they're using for this as that's what can put limitations on the final visual quality. It doesn't look like UE4 nor the Luminous Engine.
If the studio behind FF14 is working on this it'd probably be safe to assume that they're using the same engine they used for the MMO which compared to the 2 others obviously wouldn't hold a candle.
I find it funny how the dragoon is immediately dead on the floor lol
I need this in my life right now!
I need a tonberry and moogles with me
From what I understood from the trailer. That Joshua ( the small kid) is a gifted boy and the protagonist is his body guard. As we see at the end of the trailer. Joshua's father dies in front of him and his father's blood get on Joshua's face. He couldn't contain himself and released the gift inside him which is becoming Ifrit himself. You can hear the soldiers shouting Joshua's name and telling him to stop and wake up. At the trailer's final shot, they showed us the protagonist in his younger form which was a body guard to Joshua and then they show us his elder form who was saying he is gonna kill him. Which I think he meant Joshua or Ifrit. Maybe Ifrit or Joshua was causing chaos in the world and causing the blight to spread for years. The protagonist wants to stop the blight from spreading by killing Ifrit or Joshua. So the protagonist changed from being his body guard to his killer. Tbh I loved this trailer and what I witnessed! It is a mix of FF14 and FF15. So hyped for this game!
YOO Nightskyprince, get ready for E3 2021!!
Apparently its only a fraction of what is being developed. hmm now my interests peaks.
Final Fantasy XVI producer (that’s right, just producer) Naoki Yoshida here. How did you enjoy the trailer? The exclusive footage, comprised of both battles and cutscenes running in real-time, represents but a fraction of what our team has accomplished since the start of development on this, an all-new Final Fantasy game. In that span, the team’s size has grown from a handful of core members to a full-fledged unit that continues to polish and build upon what they have created so far, all to provide players an experience unmatched in terms of story and gameplay.
Our next big information reveal is scheduled for 2021, so in the meantime, I expect everyone to have fun speculating, as we have a lot in store-not only for Final Fantasy XVI, but for Final Fantasy XIV, too. Needless to say, I’ll be working hard on both!
- Final Fantasy XVI Producer, Naoki Yoshida
The person who developed the combat of devil may cry 5, is working in making ff16's combat as well.
You can confidently expect the most perfect and smoothest combat in the game.
Ooooooffff I can't wait.
when that guy said "shiva" that cemented up for me. its ff16 baybeee!!!
Best reaction I've ever seen. I'm hype for your hype, and laughed so hard at the "my body" comment, lololol
SAME, MAN. SAME
I am not excited myself, but it makes me happy to see others excited for this
THAT Chocobo killed us all off!!! 🤣 Lmao!! SO HAPPY to see how happy you are and the rest of the FF fan base!!! It was such a beautiful reveal! ☺️ ~Rozu🌹
I haven't been this hyped for a FF game in awhile. I mean excluding FF7 Remake. The world reminds me of old FF but with more grit. The story seems fantastic, the combat looks incredible, the character designs are pretty good.
I thought you were going to say My body isn’t ready!!! Lol! It’s definitely exciting though! When I saw the video I knew you’d have your own video. I wanted to see it! Cool bro.
this game looks like the lovechild of The Witcher, Nier Automata, Final Fantasy Tactics, Type-0,XIV, and XV
you forgot DMC5
He really missed "Also available for PC", he was that excited
I am not even pissed that this game doesn't have like PS5 level of graphic fidelity, it honestly looks less sandbox like FF XV and more story driven and I am perfectly ok with that! Its been a LONG time since we have had a more traditional Final Fantasy title.The fact that its Mid Evil that really peaks my interests as well. yeah PLEASE take out all that modern blend and weird scifi stuff we have had in the last FF games. Give us something that stays more true to the roots of the franchise. I will have to see more gameplay to see if I am totally sold but so far this is looking pretty good.
Medieval*
IT LOOKS SO GOOOODD 💞💘💓💗💘💞💞💓💗💕💘💝💖💞💕💘I’ve been on this social media detox for weeks 😂 I had no idea about the trailer until Stefan told me.
@nightskyprince Priceless reaction!! I laughed so hard when you said "That's a fu*king ch....! Thats a chocobo! Thats a chocobo! " My body, my body!"🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love it! You're the greatest NSP!!!
Your reaction was priceless.
Hope your body is alright haha.
So hyped up for this game though!!
I'm a newbie to the series since I just started playing the games with Final Fantasy XV! I'm absolutely in love with the game and I'm still working on it! I'm super excited with this trailer but I don't know about half of the stuff lol!
NO WAY! HE LOOK LIKE YOU BUT HIS HAIR SHIFTS ON HIS RIGHT! 😯
FF16 is medieval, HELL YES! been awhile since they made a medieval ff game for single player. I look forward to playing this game in the future.
Exclusive on PlayStation... Also available on PC ;)
Glad to be back on medieval again. Hoping for a party based combat but the single character controls looks so sick.
Considering I didn't expect to see a reveal trailer for Final Fantasy XVI until like 2025, today was a real good day
The graphic kinda look ehh maybe because the event was streamed at 1080p
Agreed :/ Didn't look that great for what they call a "PS5 experience", but its quite far from release so I'm sure things will definitely improve.
Was hoping for a different style, but maybe it'll surprise in a good way.
I’m so fucking excited. It’s always so nostalgic and special when a new Final Fantasy game gets announced. I’m so ready
Looks interresting for sure. Cant wait to play this in 2023. :/ And with all of this trailer cut, nah for real we will have to wait what will be left of it in the end.
Am I the only one who was really underwhelmed? It looks like it's XV-2/Game of thrones. I'm sick of the crystal stuff in these games. I had high hopes after Remake came out but I guess SE haven't learned anything aside from the combat looking semi decent. (Then again i don't like medieval aesthetics) If you do, enjoy. I'ma skip this one.
also did called it a ffxv-2
I'm sorry, but are you two joking?
That game doesn't even look as close to XV as it does to XIV.
And if you're tired of the whole Crystals things, then why do you even play Final Fantasy? There's been crystals in absolutely all mainline FF games since the very first one (yes, even VII Remake. What do you think materia were?), and that isn't going to change.
FF16 seem to finally go back to the medieval fantasty roots of the series, and that's really long overdue.
Too bad if you don't like it, really. But if I were you I'd at least give it its chance.
@@sabrakt Well its the first trailer we got, I hope it gets better
and I do like medieval style, I just think square can do a better job than that
@@sabrakt That doesn't help it's case lol I didn't like XIV either. The character look straight outta XV.
As an Englishman the voice acting was cringe to listen to.
I play final fantasy for interesting characters, sympathetic villains and great stories, not crystals.
I'm not a classic fan, so I'm not fussed about its roots. I've played every game since VII and my favourites are VII n X so to me there hasn't been a great FF for 20 years... Then Remake came out n it's the best thing since X.
Is this the new Devil May Cry? Can we play more than one character at the same time?
Did you notice that it said "Exclusive for Playstation Console - Also available on PC?"
I think you spoke for all of us when you said, "THAT'S A FUCKIN' CHOCOBO!"

Anyone else notice the really small text at 3:55 "also available on PC"?
Can we talk about how the dialogue doesn't sound so awkward? Like it sounds extremely natural thanks to the setting.
You’re honestly too cute.
When you said Final Fantasy XVI in the beginning, I thought you had connects at Sony or something. The fact that you were kidding and were completely shocked was hilarious 😂
I'm not excited yet. Something about all of this seems a touch too copy and paste, and I'm not talking about the core themes.
I have to agree, unfortunately. Artistically, there really isn't anything new in that trailer, and that's why I'm not sold on that game just yet.
They need to show us their new, original fantasy world, because as of now, there's nothing that screamed Final Fantasy in the environments.
At least, that's what's bothering me the most for now.
Same. It really feels like some generic game with final fantasy elements in it.
Very bland and derivative looking to me
my first impression was like: "yeh... looks good (next gen duh) but i dunno man... i feel kinda meh about it"
Agreed, they brought back 1)Similar Summon designs , 2)Scourge Healer, 3)Father-Son Dynamic, 4) Warp Strikes, 5) Lone-Wolf Carefree Protagonist, 6)Lone Wolf Edgy Protagonist and nothing that showed any real fresh value. They could have went any direction and I feel they went the path of least resistance.
Between this and FF7R on PS5 (I hope they use the PS5 potential instead of limiting to PS4), SE has officially gave meaning to my remaining life. Thank you SE! As for SONY, it was a brilliant presentation, kudos! If one day we get a PS5 open world/galaxy ZOE I would die a happy man.
A DRAGOOON!
:D
You always have the best reactions NsP
You called it even when you were joking! Much respect, Prince.
OMG i had to watch that like three times because the best part of that WHOLE VIDEO was your reaction! You're too adorable for your own good 😘
But ZOMG that truly was FUCKING AMAZING!!! 😍😍😍 Like holy fuck how often in FF do you see a character drenched in blood? And yes that combat system looks fucking awesome!!! AHHHH CAN'T WAIT!
So Final Fantasy 16 is giving us what Final Fantasy 15 wished it could do.
IT IS GOING TO BE FUCKING AMAZING!!! BACK TO ITS MEDIEVAL ROOTS!!!!!
Cool to see a new medieval style Final Fantasy! First impression: It sorta seems to lack the special charm and magical vibe of the series - the special worlds and universes that you could only get from a final fantasy game. It seems to lack that "feeling". Also the kind of standard european-inspired anime look, is kinda boring to me. It kinda looks a bit like Shrek meets Dark Souls ;)
I recognise that it's early on, and probably just a small fraction of the game, and i respect that they're trying to take the series in a new direction. And if the story is on point, it probably won't matter! I'll fall in love with it anyway :)
But man would i like to se a game in the style and with the vibe of FFX!
Gotta agree with your first paragraph.
They should have showed us more of their fantasy world, because as of now, their world seems very generic.
But it was just a first look, so let's be patient.
I kinda agree but I would want to see the style of the older games with job switching like IV, perhaps midbattle but that would be like X-2 and XIII so maybe they will not go there. The style looks like FF XIV met Witcher 3. While I like that the summons gets to be a part of the story and if they use the crystals well (not like in FF XV) I will be great. I dunno about the combat though, looks like a worse version than FF VII r, especially if you are alone. What I really like is that there is blood but then again it might be just like that single scene.
Final Fantasy XVI coming to your console in 2025
was that a judge magister from FF12
What makes Final Fantasy great for me was always the characters we went on the journey with.
This reminds me too much of the Witcher or Dark Souls, and even though its the first XVI trailer, my biggest worry from looking at it is that it might focus more on the aesthetic and drama rather than the characters and the journey.
Granted, for a first trailer still looks epic and I'm still excited, just want to see this game shine.
I don't think it will go that way, since its the same team that revived ffxiv from the brink of destruction. That game's story revolves a lot around the journey your character goes through and all of the other characters that are following you on it. Especially the Heavensward and Shadowbringers expansions.
@@sniderealism2410 I still find it baffling how they managed to fix the dumpster fire that is FFXIV 1.0 and made one of if not the best MMORPG's of this time.
@@sniderealism2410 I know, I just think it's important to focus on that like they did with XIV. It's just the first trailer so I'm just saying.
Also, are the two guys at the end the same person you think (young/older version) or two different people?
I am sooooo hyped about this like I totally felt your excitement. I'm glad the combat looks exactly the way that it does and I'm glad they are keeping the summons giant and like they feel like world ending threats (at least that's the vibe I got from the trailer).
I was never a fan of medieval settings in videogames but this gameplay looks like it's an improvement of FFXV
It's been a long time since we got a Non-MMO Final Fantasy Game set in a Medieval Fantasy Setting, Just Like Final Fantasy I-V, IX and XII...
lol, I'm glad you liked it man. I got goosebumps when I heard the main theme playing.
So from what i gathered you play as the "Shield" Vassal of Joshua the son of the arch duke and holder to the elkion Phoenix. At some point Joshua is attacked by someone and they turn into Ifrit, this is acknowledged by the guard who says it's like an Elkion's fire which is impossible implying that there should only by one Elkion per element probably tying to each kingdom's mother crystal. Ifrit kills phoenix / Joshua causing the hero to vow vengeance upon the killer. At the end we see the hero as a young man and then older, this face to face cut was done to show they are the same person, same hair and eye colour along with same face shape and the same earring. That being said the Hero seems to become a mercenary on a revenge quest. The hero also seems to have lost his fire powers at they tied to his connection to joshua who seems to be no more. When he is shown older he fights using earth powers the giant fists and wind powers the giant green claws, most likely relating to the elkions Titan and Garuda. That's all i got so far. Thank you for reading my ted talk.
Fuck, what an event. Sooo good.
I'm calling it. Final Fantasy XVI will be the first M Rated Final Fantasy game
Type-0 was the first. However, this might be the first mainline M-rated FF game, which I have to say, it's about time.
Considering there has been at least 1 mass murder or devastation in every main title, it's definitely a relief.
We all remember what happened when you got excited for the last installment, "Night Sky" Prince...
Yeaaaaah lmao! That didn’t turn out too well.
I honestly thought this was Lost Soul Aside at first glance. There's something about the style that doesn't say "Final Fantasy" to me... It could be because I'm not used to the medieval settings in these games. Will be keeping an eye on it's development.
*also available on PC.
I normally don't complain about things like this often, but the graphics seem.... underwhelming. I hope the story and gameplay make up for it
The game is still in development. I'm sure the final build will look much sharper and vibrant. I felt the same way about RE 8 when it was first revealed. But with the latest trailer it's coming together.
It's almost a good sign that they're not focusing on state of the art graphics, and hopefully instead focusing on gameplay and story. It could end up being quite ambitious in other ways... or it's just that FF7R-2 took a lot of its budget. We'll see.
At the very least, Senpai Yoshi P is involved in the project. That instills some faith that the game could be great
Antonio Rosario I’m sorry but "it’s still in development" doesn’t mean much.
Project Athia is also still in development and it looks 10 times better, on a technical standpoint.
FF16 will not be a groundbreaking graphical powerhouse, that much is obvious, and you better accept that ASAP.
Honestly, that doesn’t bother me, as long as it’s artistically interesting... But so far that’s not the case.
Hahahaha aww, I knew you were gonna be freaking the fuck out . Wanted to tune in this morning with ya but promised my buddy I’d watch it with him. PREPARE YOUR BUTTS, GUYS! IT’S HAPPENINGGG!!! I’m so happy, Ifrit looks demonic as hell again, Shiva is fucking GORGEOUS, COMBAT ON CHOCOBO’S which I HOPE we actually get to do, not just watch. MEDIEVAL WAR TIMES DUDE, it’s like Witcher meets Devil May Cry vibes and I am HERE FOR IT! Also, little Joshua looks like Chadley haha.
it's also on PC, that's pretty awesome.
Pros:
- Combat = FFXV + DMC 5 🔥
- Graphics = CHEF’S KISS! 👌🏽
- Centralized/Focused Storyline?
- SHIVA!
I’m still not super thrilled by the medieval theme, but hopefully it grows on me over time. I just feel like the medieval theme is overplayed just about everywhere, but the story should be good despite that.
The music in this trailer was so fucking good. I can’t wait for this to come out in like 5 years.

Yo! The prince posts a reaction video? Warms my heart. ❤️
I love it when i see a grown man fanboy over a trailer. It's truly heartwarming!
Worried about the director of this, Hiroshi Takai. He directed The Last Remnant. Yasumi Matsuno should have directed, the guy behind Vagrant Story and partly FF XII before he had to leave due to health reasons. Buuut we'll see how this ends up. Fingers crossed.
Matsuno would've made this even more political and less exciting for the average mainstream player. No matter how often I replay XII and how awesome I find the areas and battles in that game, the story, character writing and script are just boring for me. Imo Naoki Yoshida, Hiroyuki Ito, or Yoshinori Kitase would've been ideal. FFXIV Heavensward & Shadowbringers are awesome. And the FFVII Remake turned out fantastic, as well. But who knows, directors can also change midway through production. FFVIIR2 will also apparently not have Nomura as director any longer. Give Takai a chance. They need to bring in new blood and fresh air into things.
@@NoctLightCloud I would have been relieved hearing that about Nomura before I found out that all the weird Nomura stuff was actually Kitase's idea.
@@NoctLightCloud Wait what? why won't FF VII r2 have Nomura? did he step down after all the complaints?
@@runningcommentary2125 Ikr? Nomura gets too much criticism for things he didn't even decide. The man who actually brought Square Soft to the knees was the creator of Spritis Within, Hironobu Sakaguchi himself. He wanted to push his weird idea forward, fusing philosophical content, FF, and Hollywood. You do not choose such an approach for your first FF CGI movie (which cost millions by default)! His project was bound to fail. Kitase is their most innovative director, who pushes for change. But his change is never so radical or intrusive. Nomura is the father of their most iconic characters which sell even when you print them on toilet paper. Nomura is Square's biggest asset now, next to FFXIV director who managed to save the whole franchise.
@@vincentgraymore No, not at all. It was rather planned from the very beginning that Nomura finishes KH3, steps in for FFVIIR part 1 as director, and then lets someone else direct part 2, so that he can focus on his passion-projects KH4 and Versus XV/Verum Rex. He will, however, probably still oversee some cutscenes in VIIR2. You can tell in VIIR1 that some cutscenes are so Nomura-esque edgy and emo-cool (f.eg. when Cloud escapes from the Shinra building by motorcycle, or his final encounter with Sephiroth in that other realm). And I love it. Nomura somehow managed to transform some of the coolness of FFVII PS1 into modern days. And I've recently replayed FFVII PS1 and so many things were left unanswered which were explained in the remake. I love the remake.
Like the style of 16, it really is. I think it back to basics concept, pure fantasy
less futuristic mecha . As yoshida said in last years.
Watch it on the Square Enix CZcams with subtitles. They spell icons Eikons. Might not amount to much, but thought it was interesting.
