I find the voice acting good, but the quality and characteristic of those that should sound inhuman or modified don't; I find that a little offputting. The Amal'jaa and Ifrit are clearly humans speaking with human mouths and trying to change the way they speak; filtering them as they did with Garuda (perhaps not as intensely, given that she should sound like she's screaming in voices through the wind) would probably work out fine.

Again with Gaius, I think the acting is fine - but there's not nearly enough bass in his voice for it to have been broadcast through a metal helmet lined with respirators. Granted, I'm glad he has a different voice than just doing his best James Earl Jones impression this time around. I may have to stop calling him Judge Vader, now.

I'd like to hear it in-game in its proper context before jumping to conclusions about quality, especially considering that it's only been 3 hours since that trailer dared to defy the voices we've assigned them for 3 years.

kinda bland image design if it was suppose to be the twelve

Althyk - An austere emporer wielding a mythril greataxe

Austere - Adjective - Lacking in trivial decoration; not extravagant or gaudy

Y'never know! Just throwing out ideas.

Also, I highly doubt that the Spirit Roeg was a member of The 12.
There are numerous Crystals rotating around the Great Crystal, or whatever its called.
Those probably represent the 12

hahaha good catch... shows how hectic things must be on their end. I don't recall that part in the trailer what time was it? Might be a matter of gear/animation swapping?

Guys, here's a little fact for you. Merwylb's voice actor also does the voice of Elenwen, from TESV:

Also Boethiah and Meridia

DRG gets Omnislash for a limitbreak? ('w')

Neat trailer. Some nice stuff in there... but wow, the voice acting has me cringing.

I am more intrigued they completely dropped the FFX|V ARR tag, until the very very end small graphic. But they just kept Final Fantasy XIV. Also the weird | in X|V is gone now.

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.
-We all knew the Primals are bad asses too, but the voices do a great job in bringing them to life. It was sweet getting our first look at the Titan fight as well.
-With so much epicness in the primals/Garleans, music and story, I actually really appreciated the flashiness of our abilities in this trailer. It felt like we as heroes have the power to stand up to all of this. It would've sucked if the bad guys talked to us in this large booming voice, and then we came in fighting with these puny abilities.
-Which would bring me to limit breaks which are looking awesomeeee! It seemed strange to me that DRG seemingly has Omnislash, but the abilities themselves look very cool. That black mage pose is pure win lol.
-As others guessed, it looks like that's Ultima Weapon at 2:00???
-By far one of the BEST things I love about this game and am looking forward to is it's story and cutscenes. This is teasing at SO many things. The fact that a legatus comes into the Path of the Twelve HQ and confronts Minfilia... oh man oh man.
-I interpreted the aether part as all the lil swirls represent all of us the players, coming out of the aether and starting our journey. Besides 1.0 players teleported from the last battle, every character comes out of the aether from character creation after all!
-My only guess for the mysterious man at the end is he's an ascian??
-The english va wasn't bad at all imo. That said, I'll probably play JP voices. But hey, thanks again SE for letting us make the choice.

All in all, What I loved most is that for the first time in a long while, we finally get a real glimpse of the story. I had this really special feeling when I saw/heard so many of the characters I've grown to love. Minfilia in her awesome redesign (which imo is A LOT better than her generic 1.0 design), cid with his manly man beard, the three GC leaders... I think it's really starting to hit me - man, we're almost there. Yeah we're trying out the gameplay during beta. But to LIVE and experience the game through it's story... We're almost there.

HEED THE CRYSTAL'S CALL.
