FFVIIR at TGS 2019 (NEW TRAILER!)

[Pizzachu]

I couldn't watch the trailer until now and I'm freaking outtt! No Elena or Rufus tho.

Yeah, why is Rude so thin looking? I remember him looking thinner in Before Crisis art, but I guess the slim cut suit shows his real figure. The blond guy is from SOLDIER? Was he wearing the SOLDIER uniform or something? Everything was moving so fast it was hard to tell.

Aerith... her face is bothering me. She is the only character so far that is giving me serious uncanny valley vibes. The red dress she was wearing was pretty.

Please excuse any grammatical mistakes. I'm typing really fast right now.

He has the SOLDIER logo on his sword

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

What about everybody parachuting into Midgar? Weird.

 

[ForceStealer]

Why would Elena be there?

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

That's not time magic, Mako. He actually is that fast; at least, he's supposed to be.

 

[Tetsujin]

What about everybody parachuting into Midgar? Weird.

They seem to be parachuting down into the slums. Got a feeling this is still part of an extended Reactor 1 escape.

Sorry if this has already been asked/answered but I’ve only just been able to logon. Who’s the guy flipping around on the bike? New SOLDIER character?

 

[Tetsujin]

Tifa doing pull-ups is doing things to me

 

[Erotic Materia]

Who’s the guy flipping around on the bike?

That's the million-dollar question at the moment.

 

[pxp]

Tifa doing pull-ups is doing things to me

Could just be me but she def seems to have had a breast increase since E3 ...

Edit: @Erotic Materia ahah! ...

 

[Pizzachu]

Why would Elena be there?

Why not? I don't see why they have to stick completely to the original story if they're already changing so much.

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

Edit: @Erotic Materia ahah! ...

So maybe if we put pressure on them they could toughen up Tseng's face a bit?

 

[Lestat]

Gotta disagree with you as well Ergo!

Ok

 

[pxp]

OMG ... ???

 

[Kionae]

Too much Reno chest for my liking but otherwise a very enjoyable reveal

There's no such thing as too much Reno chest.

Also... Reno is a badass and always will be.

 

[Soakette]

Just noticed Reno wears gloves now.

Yes Elena, I would love to see her. Although I can see why they might wait until part 2. For young fans who never played she will be a "new" character for the Turks.

 

[Erotic Materia]

So maybe if we put pressure on them they could toughen up Tseng's face a bit?

I like Tseng's face...

Reno is a bit underwhelming, but I feel like Tseng (being the boss-man) wouldn't be as hands on. So he'd be able to avoid getting his face all messed up.

 

[X-SOLDIER]

Sorry if this has already been asked/answered but I’ve only just been able to logon. Who’s the guy flipping around on the bike? New SOLDIER character?

Yeah, he's a new SOLDIER enemy. I'm expecting the game to REALLY lean in to the fact that the SOLDIER program was engineering superhumans, rather than just having all of them as generic random battles, but REALLY show off the sort of individual that you'd expect Shinra to have in 1st Class. Shinra has an army of SERIOUSLY dangerous people, and I think that playing up how dangerous the idea of going up against them is, is a REALLY good idea.



Especially with non-SOLDIER like Reno & Rude, you have to really dig in to the portrayal of those kinds of enemies to both sell how dangerous Sephiroth is well beyond even our team of badasses even as they progress and come up against the rest of the best that Shinra has to offer. You should feel absolutely ECLIPSED by Sephiroth's abilities at the end of this part of the game.

(Speaking of which, Sephiroth's look at Cloud, and Cloud hitting the Buster Sword in the door frame while being unnerved was AMAZING.

[Soakette]

To much Reno chest?? NEVER! (hope he has nip slip at some point. )

 

[Erotic Materia]

There's no such thing as too much Reno chest.

Maybe... but he is kinda skinny

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

Tseng doesn't look old enough and he doesn't look manly enough. They can do manly, look at Biggs.

PS Too right, Soak - you guys get Tifa's and Aerith's chests, we deserve Reno's.

 

[Makoeyes987]

That's not time magic, Mako. He actually is that fast; at least, he's supposed to be.

Only 2 characters in FFVII move that fast without aid of materia.

Sephiroth.

And Loz. Who's a baby form Sephiroth.

No one's flash-steppin' in FFVII without materia. Unless Reno did some level grindin' on Floor 67 and did a SOLDIER regiment, I don't know how he'd be moving so quickly without aid of "Haste."

Sounds about right. Hope they tie that into the story somehow that they don’t recognise Cloud and cast doubt on his past even more so than in the early stages of the OG. Have to get the balance right though.

On another note, seems we can play as other characters on the field at times? Tifa swinging and Barret shooting through the wall?

 

[Kionae]

He's always been skinny, even in the original FF7 artwork.
