The moment that sold you on FFXV?

...had yet to happen. There has been some really cool trailers on it, but so far I have more issues with it than positives that catch my interest. That and SE's activity since FF13 has really made me become cautious of the company.

I'm sure the game will still deliver though.

The moment they called the game Final Fantasy sold it to me. Too bad they didn't do anything with the game to sell it even more.

I don't want to be a Debbie downer but there have been dozens of moments that turned me OFF to the game :(

But I hope I'm wrong and the game turns out to be amazing!

I've nevee been one to question why anyone likes or doesmt like a game (since i feel its subjective) but I've always been puzzled by the people that say things to suggest that FF15 will be bad. 

We don't know about the story which is usually the most important facets of any FF game.

All the exposure anyone has got from it thus far are from demos and how much each demo changed from the last drives the point home that the game is still in development. 

There are a great number of series firsts in the game which should at the very least make any FF fan interested in it. From how the weapons work, the summons (I mean come on, now these summons looks and feel like godlike all powerful creatures), a car, day and night cycle, how levelling up works....

the gameplay looks to be on point and seems to have a lot of depth down to making a small mini game from something as simple as spells.

This is the first (well second cause 12 also was kinda) true open world FF game. 

There is just a depth of new takes on the RPG formula that could like FF did before, change how RPGs are designed going forward. 

I simply can't understand how any FF fan can't be excited for this game. It's bold and it's different as every good FF game should be. Now if we are talking about people that habent really ever played a FF game, or those super nostalgic types that don't really hate the game for what it is but ratehr for what it isn't (our turn based dolks: though in truth this game even has a mode for them) that I could kinda understand. 

You know, reading from all the comments you quoted, most of them don't suggest the game will be bad, just that it doesn't interest them yet. Heck, I even say I'm sure the game will deliver.

-Speaking for myself, from what I've seen, it seems to look very beautiful, but it seems to focus more on story bits, rather than gameplay and just showing off parts of the world. I think the trailers focusing on story bits too much is pushing me away. There are other things that bother me, like the all boy in black party and the unusual combat system.

I haven't written the game off, but so far, I haven't been enticed by the game yet.
