First thought: what the hell is a "human" in Vanadiel?

Second thought: this trailer is really bad at getting me excited about the expansion. Is it really so lacking in content that focusing on a little spinning globe thing was supposed to be a major selling point?

Vague trailer is vague and uninspiring. Needs more pizazz.

oh mew, don't underestimate the essence of the scenes, mew!!

Not everything have to be roller coaster snappy explosions and 200 hit combos to be interesting, mew.

Honestly, seeing the changing environment of Ulbuka. Reminds me of Zendikar, which is nostalgic to me. The only part that left anything to be desired was the part where I want "oh, I get it, she's this one's lead heroine."

Of course, being a Final Fantasy plot, Ulbuka will undoubtedly meet a similar fate to Zendikar. Except we might actually get to save it this time.

You should try Rift some time Yellow Mage. It's the closest you will get to a Magic The Gathering MMO at the moment and delivers a lot of things that FFXIV originally promised to deliver.

And thanks for the link Satori. It was a lot more informative than that trailer.

Abandon PS2 support.
Keep PS2 assets.

Makes sense.

The PS2 version is still supported in Japan.

It's funny how shitty the ffxi trailers look compared to ffxiv...

at first I was afraid to watch it, as I did not want to get pulled back into FFXI, but after watching it... WTF? It looks like it was edited in an hour, and showed nothing. Even it this was a teaser trailer...it was bad. That and it more of the same, the city shots, and the jungle (god another one) ones...... *shrugs*

City zones looked pretty empty NPC-wise.

Naoshi Mizuta clearly isn't composing - sounds like an intern from Basiscape composing for the N64. If it is some folks at Basiscape, I know they can do better because FFT, FFXII, Vagrant Story, Tactics Ogre and Crimson Shroud all sound better than this. Mizuta and Uematsu before him gave FFXI a ton of atmosphere with their compositions and I'm just not getting that here. I guess I shouldn't be surprised, though, as this is probably the only expansion to come out from the "let's farm out the music stuff" era of SE. I think Abyssea compositions already done before that change happened.

Not that its been all bad on SE's games or anything, Kingdom Hearts seems to have held up well. Bravely Default sounds great so far. This is meh.

Re: Seekers of Adoulin Trailer - March 26, 2013 Release

Wait do we have not seen any gameplay, had much more information than the link that Satori posted and people are already writing off the game due to generic JRPG town music being used for trailer music, PS2 assets and a PS2 engine being used in a PS2 game and the word "human?"
