Delusional? Seriously? Do you even know what that word means?

Have you even seen this? 

Here, let me quote it for you: 

Tetsuya Takahashi: "The game's battle system is based on the one in Xenoblade Chronicles for Wii, but with even more polish."

So, yes, assuming it will be similar to Xenoblade is pretty proper, since the developer is suggesting this himself.

When it comes to Final Fantasy XV, what the heck does Sony has to do with anything? Seriously... ¬_¬
We haven't got much info about that game. Yes, it's taking them ages to release the game. So what? I should hate S-E for that? I don't share that childish and moronic sense of entitlement many gamers do these days.

Based on the few trailers we've got from FF XV, and contrary to what Bigmouth is trying to force down everyone's throat here, it's not that easy to put the game in a box and pretend to know everything it will offer.

 

@ Bigmouth: You haven't provided a single factual evidence that what you claim about FF XV is remotelly true. So what's there to argue? You're assuming everything you're spouting as facts, but have nothing to go by. Those trailers? Yeah, sure! They give a slight idea of what could be going on. But I don't pass a definite judgment on something based on assumptions. That would be stupid and unreasonable. I'll make an educated judgement once I fully know what I'm dealing with. I invite you to do the same. But based on your behaviour so far, I strongly doubt you can ever do that.

I'm not going to bash something based on whatever suits an agenda I don't even have. You think you've got evidences, but they're nothing but assumptions. Xenoblade is an open world RPG with a sandbox feel. As in: It's open world, sure, as you get to explore its massive world without too much constraints or an overly linear path, but it's not a sandbox. Sandbox means a living "breathing world" that evolves as you play, based on your actions and choices, and in which you can dynamically change some parameters. Hence the "sandbox" appellation. 

Xenoblade's world progression evolves based on key trigger moments in the game just the same as most other well crafted JRPG (read: Not FF XIII). Its delivery is stellar, but it's not a living, evolving, dynamically changing world. It's no Elder Scrolls, GTA or Fallout. But I suspect this distinction of mine will result in us arguing over the semantic rather than on the core of the matter here. Which is: We don't know much about FF XV, and bashing it the way you do just to make X look better is childish at best. One can say a game looks more appealing than an other without making stuff up based on an obvious agenda to justify his preference. Hating on something you don't know is certainly retarded and points to a great deal of ignorance. And as most sane people know, ignorance is the enemy of reason.

Tangible: Possible to understand or realize.  

I'm showing videos to allow anyone reading an understanding of my point of view. Hynad didn't understand why I said FF XV looked limited so I gave something tangible. Notice Hynad cannot do the same, and instead is rambling on about things without providing anything to back it up whatsoever. 

Hynad:

I'm making stuff up? Lol, show me something that proves I'm wrong. Though I know you can't or it would have already been posted. The "agenda" could be to prove me wrong. 

First you ask me to show you something and when I do you say "That doesn't count!" Lol. 

Yet again with the agenda thing. What else do you believe? Nicki Minaj is illuminati and XBone's Kinect is out to get you. 

As for whether or not Xenoblade is sandbox jrpg, that is something that is a bit more grey area that we could discuss next. It isn't exactly sandbox and it isn't exactly not sandbox by the strictest definition. 


Of course you're making stuff up. It's not that what you brought up count or not. It's that you state as fact what you believe you're seeing in those trailer.

"XV looked like XIII, limited explorable areas and one player with one weapon. X is online multiplayer, sandbox, and much more diverse in combat. if smoothness (which I felt was no smoother than X) is all you're looking for (because you give no examples for impressiveness) then keep swallowing the S-E gravy. "

You're saying XV only has limited explorable areas. Because they're showing characters roaming and fighting in a city? X has that too. What about that open field area, where we see characters on what seems to be a world map? What about Nomura's claim that he's bringing back controllable airships to the franchise after an absence since FF X?  One player with only one weapon? What tells you that you're not allowed to switch characters? More diverse in combat? The hell do you know? We have seen next to nothing of FF XV's battle system, and you're claiming to know it all based on that. Again, you're basing your shit on nothing but assumptions. And I've already made myself clear that I'm not going to do that. You're the one being a hater here, not me.

I'm interested in both games. I loved Xenoblade. And X is my most anticipated Wii U game because of that. You, on the other hand, are the one mindlessly bashing one game to make the other look better. You're the one who has an agenda.
