Final Fantasy - From Versus XIII to XV

  • In celebration of Final Fantasy XV's one year anniversary I decided to make a video explaining the incredibly hectic process that FFXV went through during development. What began as a different game called Final Fantasy Versus XIII is now known to us as the fifteenth mainline Final Fantasy game, Final Fantasy XV.

      I still remember the first time they announced it and hunting down every piece of information they released about it for a solid year or two before finally moving on. I still went back to it from time to time to see if there were any updates about it’s development for years after that. It’s insane how much time has passed since then.

      ​@@pinkblossomsCan he not though? We've had timetravel and timelines in ff1, ff8, ff10, and now ff7 Rebirth seems to have literally alternate timelines' characters. The Omen trailer NEVER gets any explanation as to why it was patched into the game. The book released after the season pass talks about Versus-like dreams. Noctis was randomly sleeping for 10yrs. We have clear versus13 references in kh3, and a remake that isn't really one (ff7r), so I don't see why we can't have a ffvs13 reboot (maybe simply called "ff versus") after remake part 3 wraps up. Rebirth was fantastic and done in a VERY timely manner considering its massive size and quality. Mabye they've finally figuring out timely AAA game development?

      A "remake" of sorts of Final Fantasy XV is going to be announced in the near future as Final Fantasy Versus XV, directed by Tetsuya Nomura and overhauled with a team that knows more about Luminous now that XV was made, and with decidedly more KH-like combat. It will encompass the entire original story intended for Versus XIII.

    I still want FF Versus 13 to come back. FF 15 kept the crucial part involving the brotherhood between friends, but was missing the romance and critical lore of Versus 13. Having to take down your own lover in a Romeo and Juliet story while questioning your own faith in worship of the Goddess of Death and grim reaper. With Stella being a descendant of angels and gods of light while Noctis himself is condemned by the rest of the world for worshipping the kind benevolent goddess of the underworld. I thought that DLC could pick up the pieces by expanding on Aranea and Luna/Stella; but unfortunately that never really happened.
    I don’t want Yozora’s Verum Rex, I want Versus 13.

    "Vs13 is waiting for 13(trilogy)"-tetsuya nomura. The last ff13 game came out on like 2012 maybe? So they essentially announced the game 6 years too early.
    And in an dengeki interview it was revealed that vs13s story was already fully written. It wasnt just an "idea" it was a real thing that didnt had a team to work on the project. Square enix's bussiness division 1 was plagued with the 13 trilogy,BD2 had to work on type-0 and its port,BD3 worked on KH stuff,BD4 worked on ff14,BD5 worked on mobile titles,etc etc. Vs13 didnt lack the amount of content or anything,it just didnt had a real team that was free to work om the game.
    Thats really the core issue the game had. And after wada left the new ceo ordered nomura to step down RIGHT when ff13-3 was finished and BD1 was free to work on something new...it a bunch of unfortunate coincidences and square enix's incompetent management staff that led to vs13 "cancellation".

    I want a lone prince, defending a castle from machine guns with an ancient art of magic swords. He defends it for an old order, one that he doesn't even completely understand, but is still torn with questions. Questions like, "Why?" "Who is this all for?" "Should this order really be defended?" They can still tell that story. A girl could appear that makes him question his loyalty to his king. After a lot of plot twists, with him confronting his king for answers and getting nothing meaningful, the invading army winds up killing his king, and then when it turns on him he shuts them down very quickly. He becomes the new king, but the end of the story is cutscenes of him brokering a peace treaty with the other king. He walks right in the front door, the army steps down when their king waves them away. The new, dark prince, there with the mysterious girl that told him of the tale of her people, and the king of the enemy are discussing something. Gotta have some mystery. We don't need to know what happens, since he took out most of their military in 1 night, we're not even remotely worried for his safety. We can assume that he is simply telling the enemy king what their relationship is going to be for the next few decades, whether he wants to hear it or not, it's gonna happen. Don't just tell a throwaway story, you gotta mean something, or else don't try to tell a story at all.

    I hope this game gets the Justice League Snyder Cut treatment. What I mean by this is that if enough people ask for it, Square Enix gives Nomura the ability to go back and finish the project the way he wanted to. It will just be Noctis' true story route.

      @@zaqareemalcolm it's hard to say at this point. After showing the limo scene from KH3 DLC, it was either a secret easter egg for true fans to understand or he's using his original scraped materials for a completely different game altogether.
      What I meant by "secret easter egg" is like a hidden Cameo of sorts. It's a way to show us "hey guys, look at this. I haven't forgot about my story for versus thirteen and I wanted to slide it in here for good measure. Hopefully you all see it and make a big fuss about it so I can go back and fix Final Fantasy 15/VS13 the way it should be."
      I really do wonder how much better the game Final Fantasy 15 could have been if he finished everything before moving to kingdom hearts. Everything grabbed my attention far more than what it ended up doing in Final Fantasy 15.
      Who knows? Only time will tell at this point. Our voices seem to have more impact within the last five or so years than they ever have in the gaming community. If square looks at this move as some potential sales revenue, they'll give Nomura the okay, or at least I think they would.
      Fingers crossed.

    I liked Final Fantasy XV when I first played it, but I could always tell there was something off. Certain parts of that game are downright bad, and I have a hard time liking XV, even though I really want to. I'm just, disappointed, more than I've ever been with any other game. Despite how insanely hyped I was for this game (I started making RUclips videos because of it), by the last few chapters, I was struggling to find enjoyment. You can even hear it in my voice in my streams of the game, from chapters 13/15, I was struggling to even give a shit. I could tell how blatantly rushed and unfinished the game was, and when the credits started rolling, I was just left confused and bored. When the credits roll on a game people have been waiting 10 years for, the first words out of your mouth shouldn't be "are you kidding me?" I've never felt more unsatisfied by a game in my life, even by the train wreck that was MGSV. So many promises were left unfulfilled, and even ignoring Versus and earlier XV trailers, the game fails on a lot of fundamental levels like basic game design and character development. I don't know, I'm just whining. I feel like I got excited for nothing.
    Anyway, great video! It's always sad to see such well made videos go so unnoticed, 41 views is absolutely criminal. I hope this channel gets the attention it deserves.

      I agree about the last few chapters, but there were some genuinely good parts in the outset, on continent #1 (I don't remember the name). That felt like the only part of the game which was 100% finished, I could tell the developers never even got started on the 3rd continent because they shoved the player onto a train & streamlined it to the finish line. Based on what the first part of the game was like, this could've been one of the best in the series - if it had actually been completed. As is, it's basically like the "Black Cauldron" of Final Fantasy titles. Both took way too long to make, were extremely costly, & ended up having important content outright removed from the final product. Disappointing, because I really wanted to like it.

      I'm not sure since I didn't put the songs in the description (like I usually do), but off my head I can remember that the first one is FFXV - World of Light, and the last song(s) are an instrumental cover of "Stand by Me" layered with the version by Florence + the Machine.
      I believe I used a variety of songs from Final Fantasy XV and maybe some from XIII. I usually try to use music from whatever I talk about during my videos. Hope that helps :)

    • @Naniko
      @Naniko  5 лет назад +2

      I'm really excited to see what they do with KH4. I really enjoyed KH3, despite having about as many problems with it as I do with this game, but am glad that the Xehanort saga (kind of) wrapped up finally. I'm hoping that the theories of Sora having to compete in the Reaper's Game from TWEWY in order to come back are true, as that sounds awesome. I also think that Riku being in the world of Verum Rex, which is essentially Versus XIII (slightly) reimagined is an awesome premise and has SO much potential. I think that the inevitable Verum Rex world will basically be what Nomura had hoped for Versus XIII would be, minus Noctis and everything. I think it's gonna be awesome, and definitely want to make some KH content on this channel soon!
      Thanks for watching :)

This might be an unpopular opinion but I think Disney is holding back KH's potential. Most of the disney stuff are basically "filler" which can ruin the pacing of the game. But disney owns Kh so can't really do anything about it.

      @@bornegamerz1180 I agree completely. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely LOVE Donald and Goofy, and a lot of the Disney characters/worlds (somewhat) but I absolutely feel like the series should (have already, kind of what i expected KH3 to do) gravitate much more towards the Square-side of things. I think that all of the original things that have been done within the games (Sora and friends, Org XIII, The Foretellers, etc.) are the best parts of the games, but it always feels like Square (or more like Disney) wants the focus to be almost MORE on Disney than the thing that the game series is titled after. But I digress.

    See, this is why you don't put an "Ideas Guy" in a position of power. Nomura lacks focus with many of his projects, which is why he usually has collaborators. I believe that if a better director had been given the responsibility, it would"ve had a lot smoother of a development.

      After hearing about how Nomura gets assigned to shit without being told, idk, man. He has so problems but I can't blame him entirely. Tabata is also kind of questionable. How much time did he spend on tech demos and "stream-only" gameplay sections in lieu of...idk...finishing the game?

    • @krazyxki
      @krazyxki 3 года назад +1

      ​@@boohoo723 Yeah I'm sorry but Nomura creates good work if fleshed out, and Vs 13 was a much better concept even than Tabata's fully released game ever was. The mess that was 15 was probably the biggest disappointment I've faced in my life, and I've had good job/travel/etc opportunities not pan out for me. On release day at midnight I visited maybe 5 or 6 Walmarts to find this game in stock, because I was just so excited to play. But like you said, they were more concerned about showing off than actually finishing the game. So many broken promises that I thought I was playing a Ubisoft game. But even Ubisoft I have to give more credit to because at least their games aren't plain empty when released. This game was as empty as it felt. I saw someone exploring the out of bounds of this game and it just broke my heart. Empty maps and locations, so much of the story lost due to bad management. And that's only in the released game itself; we'll never even see what was lost in the original scrapped game engines and original concepts.
      And this is coming from someone who didn't even follow the production that closely, I still felt betrayed and disappointed and angry, but mostly despaired. It wasn't due to bad story-writing, bad merely bad management, and to me, that's just too unfair and infuriating. I know they're never going to revisit it ever again as much as I wish differently, but I would kill to have Vs 13 see the light of day.

    Versus XIII is Tetsuya Nomura's project before taken over by Tabata and turned to XV. If any of you follow Kingdom Hearts, another one of Nomura's project, in KH3 he put this character Yozora that looks like Noctis. And his name literally means night sky in Japanese.

      Personally I am over Versus XIII, and I think the majority of fans are too. Not to mention I'm sure square wants nothing to do with it anymore after all they went through in the first place. XV took pretty much every element from Versus and incorporated it, albeit differently than what was shown, but it was either that or scrapping the idea entirely. I think it's simply time to move on.
      Besides there's no reason XVI or beyond can't reincorporate ideas or themes from Versus into a better game than Versus ever would have been.
