NEW TRAILER!!!!!

[Shademp]

I'm quoting and bumping this because I put two hours of work into this while BF played Dragon Age and you will look at it damn it.

What was your method for isolating the vocals and sound effects? I use Vegas Pro for video editing and uploading. Do you think there might be a way to isolate the trailer's music from all other sound without the final audio being muffled?

Neat editing though. *thumbs up*

My headphones lied to me because it didn't sound that muffled when I did it. Bastards.

I used Audacity, a lot of tweaking with noise reduction, and at first, the vocals were too shrill and I added some bass to take away from that. Final product evidently had too much cause like I said, sounded fine on my headphones.

Could be that the audio got corrupted during the YouTube upload due to incorrect settings or YouTube incompatibility? I have only experienced trouble with visual settings in editing software needing to be adjusted (like a video becoming discolored or dark) before but the same might be true for audio. YouTube can also be pretty picky when it comes to accepting certain sound formats.

I have Audacity but I have never experimented with noise reduction in it. Interesting.

I'm gonna try tweak it again maybe tomorrow when I have time. I'm nothing if not a perfectionist and that is bugging the crap out of me

Am I the only one who doesn't like Barret's sunglasses?

 

[X-SOLDIER]

Spoiler: Cloud seems to have an opinion on them...

Really though: I love the Blade-meets-Mr-T-look he's got going on, but I can see why it's not gonna be liked by everyone.

Do we really need pre-rendered scenes anymore?

Yes, because nobody can do acrobatic dual-wielding sword battles amid falling pieces of the Shinra Building. (Cue Advent One-Winged Angel music)

That would just NOT WORK in a menu-driven RPG!

I don't hate them, I just don't see the point. One because he has never worn any in previous instalments and second... It's fucking pitch black all the time! Unless he has a white stick and a Labrador in the game I'd rather they went.

Re: Barret's glasses. There should be a poll for that .

The only point I can think of is protection from the light of explosions... None of the other characters seem to mind that though. That or he went to the optometrist earlier that day and they put those damn drops in his eyes.

 

[Theozilla]

I don't dislike Barret's shades, but I also don't particularly love them either. Neutral to them as a whole, though I do hope there is at least an option to remove them later in the game and they are not a permanent fixture on his model (being able to see a character's eyes makes a big difference in character animation).

 

[Starling]

I figured he'd only be wearing the shades for the bombing mission.Maybe obscuring his eyes is supposed to make him less recognizable to Shinra somehow.

 

[wayfarer]

I have the feeling Barrett will take off the sunglasses before the second mission. I think everyone noted how sorta grumpy and closed-off he sounded in the trailer. My guess is the glasses will come down as he starts to open up as a character.

 

[Aya Lee]

Barret is one of the most expressive characters in the game in my opinion. It'd be a shame not to see his expressions because of sunglasses. Especially when he looks at Marlene when he returns to the bar with Cloud and the gang.

Now that I reread my post, I can imagine this exact scene to be the time he removes them. You'll see him transform into daddy-mode, lol.

So I'm not sure if within the 15 pages someone went to check, but I remembered about the press release for the E3 trailer, and found it was also updated with the PSX trailer. It's much higher quality than either EN or JP 1080p Youtube videos (a MP4 that's 263MB vs 55MB from Youtube).

Compare these screenshots, which I went frame-by-frame in a program called VirtualDub for (Press 1st/Youtube 2nd):

(notice less blur and while not HUGE increase, there is more detail in the threads of Biggs' shirt)

(Barret's arm has less muddled detail)

(lots of motion in this scene, most of the detail of the platform is lost on Youtube)

(...well you get the idea...)

Best to view the comparison full-screen, if you can (link to gallery for mobile users?.

With that said, I feel this would be best to use for screenshots and whatever else until the next trailer.

Still wish to find this press release in Japanese (and that should then have the absolute highest quality trailer and future videos).

I'm always glad to see these sort of quality content-related posts from you, man.

Gawd damn they are beautiful.

[trash panda]

I can't get over how gorgeous everything looks. Particularly Barret. I REALLY want a play arts statue of FFVII Remake Barret. <3

 

[e.suna]

I love when OG Barret waves his arms around in fury. Remake Barret would look too cartoony (and hilarious) doing that, so unfortunately they will probably change it.

Haha, thanks! You know me, I always look for the HD-yness of HD. I seem to be unable to sleep, so I'm running the image sequence feature of VD, and will have 3,261 screens to pick the best selection from for TLS.

This was literall my reaction when i watched the trailer...

"OMG AVALANCHE LOOKS SO COOL AND I LOVE THEIR VOICES ... oh yeah they're gonna die "

LOL! That'd be hilarious.
