Press and player reactions to the new XIV

[Mockingjay]

Personally, after seeing the trailer I was really hyped for 2.0. While I agree showing a CG trailer first isn't the best marketing tactic, I hope that people will see it and think "oh, that looks pretty cool, maybe I should check this game out".

It doesnt really show the game has been fixed lol, hipster won't like it and will start posting in every game site on how SE never learns anything and FFXIII was terrible game and only FFXIII fabula nova will saves SE from bankrupcy.

Forgot about the DBs saying "pfft where's my FFVII HD remake" -_-

Where did they ever mention the UI in those screens is photoshopped again?

It was pretty obvious




notice any similarities?

[Cthulhu]

Uhn... I have very bad eyesight and little to no attention for detail...
Care to explain?

tbh I don't think that's photoshopped but more like the dragoon and coeurl are the only things in action. CDs are in affect, and the first one is when the drg is preparing to dragonfire dive and the second is when he uses it but in a different angle. If you look at the differences between the first and the second, the changes actually make sense. They only seem to be like 1 second apart.

Thing is, the party member cast bars are all in exactly the same places in both pictures. That's a little odd, I never noticed it before.

Why didn't the casting bars of Firaga and Cure move, then?

The UIs are exactly the same. Cast bars, ally spells, ally HP/MP, the character's TP, etc.

The trailer isn't like a movie trailer that shows clips from the movie. Its sort of a fake trailer that shows what the game would be like if it was on the PS5.

So, really, I don't see that the trailer gives anyone much of an idea about what the game is actually going to be like.
