New Trailer

[Ramesses]

WHOA, I for one loved that trailer!! So much feels!

-First and foremost, Gaius and his posse!!!

That looks like a Roegadyn on the left? If the Garlean legati are not just humans, I'd really like to see a bad ass evil Lalafell one. Preferably wielding a physical weapon so he/she is a different type of bad ass than Shantoto.

Great idea Kamui and you know what, something that has been bothering me every time I look at the image for the Garlean Emperor (Solus)...

He's standing so confidently that he looks "stout", which begs the question... what race is he exactly? Hyur (not quite)? Roegadyn (Hmmm)? Or...

...is he a Lalafell?

Does nobody else find the white coloring of the female Legatus on the right...discomforting? A legacy of the White Raven? His apprentice? A lover? A competitor?

I doubt Nael would have been called the White Raven unless he was the only Legatus to wear the white armor...so something about her feels connected by the fact that she is also wearing white Legatus armor.

I doubt there's going to be any real deep connection like that just from the color of their armor. Gaius is called the Black Wolf, but there's a character next to him wearing even more black.

I'm more curious by what animal names they get nick named, assuming that's going to be the case (White Raven, Black Wolf, Red Lobster, ect).

While I agree that you are most likely correct, something still feels like it's being intentionally done. Yes, there are other Legatus in black armor, but this is more in line with the traditional Imperial look. Even the one with more red still seems to fall into this line.

But the white armor was something that made Nael stand out in 1.0 and become something of an iconic look as far as FFXIV villains go. I'm finding it hard to believe that the design team arbitrarily gave this new female Legatus the white color scheme without taking into consideration what it could represent.

Again, you're likely right, but I am a fan of speculation.

Red Lobster *giggles*

interesting clips; terrible, terrible voice overs.

[Punainen]

The English voice acting could have been better... I preferred Gaius' old voice.

Agreed. There is something about his voice it sounds... idk over acted? Forced? But over all it is a very nice trailer and makes me want to have 2.0 here even sooner!

I doubt it highly, but it would be nice if they gave us the options on what language we would like the voices to be in, since everything seems to be subtitled anyway~!

Saw Tifa, got over excited. We have Monk, we need that outfit. And a cut scene with Tifa.

Cid can make it happen.

I smell story line!

Ok. Um.

Am I the only one who noticed that at 2:06, Gaius says IN-GOR-ANCE? instead of Ignorance?

That was the last straw regarding the voice acting for me. The muddled accents, tinny quality, and above error makes this trailer sound like a bunch of high school kids overdubbed the SE va as a prank.

I have a problem with any professional voice actor that says: 'nuke-u-lar', jew-lery', or 'in-gor-ance'.
It's nuclear, jewelry, and ignorance, people. You're getting paid to speak.

Other than the audio, that trailer kicks serious subligar.
