This, and the FFXV Trailer made my day, though I to think the voice acting was missing something aside from the lack of lip syncing.

That trailer was beyond awesome and got me excited for the game. This weekend can not come any sooner!

Also I'm starting to see some connection with the lore and that unknown hooded/masked npc at the end.
Perhaps Anonymoose can help me shed some light into this as I don't tend to remember all of the details. But I remember reading something about the battle at silvertear lake with the Garleans and the dragons(Midgardsomr)

There was one part that stuck to me. But rumors around that time tells that a single person was behind the action of causing the dragons to suddenly appear and attack the Garleans.

Fast-forward to the future. 2nd battle at silvertear lake. Bahamut appears and we even saw in the trailer what looked like the hooded man being there as well. So I'm actually guessing that he's the reason that bahamut is trapped inside a labyrinth. Which could explain the shadowy looking figure of bahamut in the end. Trapped in the void by an Ascian? Perhaps his labyrinth is inside the void as well.

Anonymoose can't wait shed some light on this one - but he has a big project that's overdue, first, and doesn't want to get into this one without being able to say what he wants to say well and actually back it up with evidence.

;~;
SOON.

In the meantime... keep on that train of thought.

In the first days of dawn, old enemies become new and two were never two.
The highest among beasts and the hoarders of horns would dim the six to silence the one.

Anonymoose would love to shed some light on this one... but he has a larger project that's overdue, first, and doesn't want to say it without being able to say it well and actually back it up ;~;

Lol, I really love you Anonymoose(in a not gay way). You're like the offspring of Fernehalwes around this forum XD. But anyway take your time. I just hope that my deduction skills haven't rusted. I enjoy trying to figure things out or uncovering someone's identity like some detective. XD

I couldn't help and make a second post to try and decipher your little riddle. I love riddles. (I'm bored lol)

In the first days of dawn, old enemies become new and two were never two.

I’m guessing you’re trying to say that what seemed to be two threats/two camps were never two to begin with but a third unknown threat was always present (Possibly hinting to the hooded guy?)

The highest among beasts and the hoarders of horns would dim the six to silence the one.

Highest among beasts, I guess that would be Bahamut The second part will either refer to bahamut again or to the one that controls all the horned voidcreatures we saw during 1.0. Both of them serving to restrict the 6 primals to bring out the mothercrystal/the one singing to us and bestowing us with the echo (forgot if she had a name. I’m so bad at remembering finer details like names and dates)

Hopefully my deduction skills are somewhat close. But I’ll wait and see. Can’t wait to eventually see your full report on all of this. But again take your time with it. I’m just being bored and excited over here XD.

Another thing I just noticed, between 2:08 to 2:15. Was that party fighting BUGBEARS?! You know, these guys:



Did anyone else notice a similarity?

Those are Gigas (link to FF XI Wiki) and not Bugbear.

Yep, you're correct. Gigas...

*Amazed face*

Anyway, I'm now curious about the lyrics that were in that trailer at points.

Edit: I just realised, I have now gotten to the point where I am pausing at every possible frame I can for information. I am really happy about this =D

I think long time ago they confirmed that GIGAs are going to be much likeley the beastmen tribe which warships Shiva. coming along in a snow region.

its much more similiar with that appearance i think:




And have you noticed also the new side character "Alfino"?
- A new organization called “Clan of Dawn” (Akatsuki no Ketsumei) will play an important role in the story of the new game. A new primary NPC named Alfino is a member of the clan and will be voiced by Shinnosuke Tachibana (you can see the character’s portrait below).
