And every Final Fantasy game, even without knowing it's an FF game, and despite the disparate settings and styles, is noticeable as an FF game. Until I saw a chocobo, I didn't realise this was an FF game at all, which isn't a bad thing in itself but....
It looks too much like it's set in the Witcher's world and chocobos and Summons and Dragoons just clashed horribly with the more realistic looking medieval world that they showed off in that trailer. It looks bizarre, and once again, SE is following instead of leading.
I'm hoping to be impressed down the line but that trailer left me cold, really. Witcher's world, DMC's gameplay, what is left that is truly FF?
