Final Fantasy 15's Trailer Shows a Lot of Promise

Written By Kom Limpulnam on Jumat, 19 September 2014 | 23.26

For all the technological advancement FF games have pioneered over the years, they've become stale in their character development. We've all seen these people before – the twerpy blonde kid (Zell, Tidus, Vaan, Hope); the strong but silently brooding guy (Squall, Auron, Lightning); the good-natured surrogate older sibling (Quistis, Wakka, Snow); the peppy teenage girl (Selphie, Rikku, Penelo, Vanille); and the love interest/damsel in distress (Rinoa, Yuna, Serah). There are plenty more I could list, but you get the idea.

Don't get me wrong – I love many installments in the FF series, and some of the characters listed above I still find endearing. But for all the complex environments, plots and battle systems, the character interactions are starting to seem by-the-numbers. Oh, the blonde kid finds his inner strength when he needs it most? The emotionless warrior has a heart after all? The whimsical pigtailed girl reminds us of the importance of friendship during the most dire of crises? Been there, done that ad nauseum.

I don't know if it's Japanese culture that breeds these tropes or if it's a staple of the franchise that can't be shaken, but I'm hoping for a new formula this time around.

(For the record, my personal dream team would be Seifer, Balthier, Basch, Ashe, Fang, Barret and Tifa).
