This is so silly yet it had me chuckling for like 10 minutes straight. I think I will just disable it but keep on extension list for all time.

I find this hilarious. I don't use Chrome but adored that at least SOMEONE in the production team found this amusing enough to give high rez images for fans to have fun with. I mean seriously, it's all in good fun and free advertising for a game that has YET to come out. LOL

Other sites that reported on this when it just got announced have a ton of creative people posting their memes of this in the comment section. It's quite hilarious what certain people come up with.

It's cool that the director did this, however, you neglected to report on the most important part of the stream about the removal of playable characters aside from Noctis along with the casual approach to the battle system (they removed the ability to switch weapons manually and now it's also a 1 button masher)

Tabata's the man. Not only is he a far more efficient and competent than Failmura, but the dude's got a sense of humor to boot.

1-Two button. Attack and techniques are your primary attacks.
2-It's not a button masher...if you so choose. Think Diablo 3 for consoles, or Final Fantasy Type-0. You can simply continually hold the attack button down to execute combos and switch them up with directional inputs.
3-Nothing is final. One reason they're releasing this demo is to get feedback on what needs to be changed, removed and implemented for the final game. This isn't the first time Tabata's done this: He also publicly released a tech demo for Type-0 which was quite different from the final product. Or rather, the final product fixed most problems from the demo (no more button mashing, improved phantoma, ability to customize control scheme, etc).
