Who do you think the good ones are? Who will be the baddies? Which characters will fall into which tropes? What do you think their names are?

Speculate away!

(Also is it me or does the 6th from the right look like an Assassin from Assassin's Creed...)

YES. It's almost freaky. Even has the same hood and everything. Also, the one on the far, far right looks slightly like Hope. Could just be me though.

One thing I can tell from that line-up is there is lots of middle-aged men. The second, third, sixth, eighth and eleventh all look rather middle-aged and/or old. Also, typical funky haircuts!

Yeah. I think it's really refreshing to see more people older than 35 in the main cast.

Also, from the trailer I can assume that if you split this image in the middle, you get sort of a feuding families thing, IMO. I think they're trying to pull a Romeo and Juliet on us (I mean, look at the city - Is it me, or does it look like Venice? I know R&J took place in Verona, but the fact that it's Italy-inspired is hint enough, IMO). Noctis and Stella (far left and right, respectively) would be our Romeo and Juliet then, I guess. Anybody get the same vibe?

I'm curious about the girl with the black hair and pale skin. I guess I naturally gravitate towards that :P.

If they keep the job system, she might make a good Black Mage.

Yeah, when I saw the above image that's what I immediately thought.

I have a feeling she's that female dragoon we saw chasing Noctis in the 2011 trailer.

EDIT: On second thought, no, she isn't. Dragoon lady has blonde/white hair, apparently.

I'm pretty impressed by how believable the guys all look, by which I mean, they have actual physical flaws in their faces and none of them look like prepubescent teenagers.

Yeah, sharky and I were making jokes about how at age 21 I would now be the "older, big sister type" and at 32 he would be the old man shaking his cane at kids on his lawn. It's nice to see some variety in the ages.

Ezio's in the game? Might need to buy this thing after all.

Ezio is in this game apparently. SERIOUSLY IT LOOKS LIKE AN ASSASSIN.


But yeah I like the age variety as well as the flaws.Those are flaws, those aren't just fresh faced kids on an adventure. That adds character. That alone makes me very interested.

Well there was Ezio costume DLC in XIII-2...

Coincidence? Yeah probably.

Yah they had the hooded figures in the KH series as well as some new ones in Lightning Returns so hoods are in apparently.

The seeming lack of female character got brought up in today's Q&A:

I think that the bad guy with the Disney Princess like tiara is going to be the main baddie. Maybe he just dreams of freedom and craves something "more ".

:cry:

Prompto is going tobe very unique to use in battle do to his fps style rather than noctiss warp sword. From the 3 charecters shown in battle I'm liking the style diversity. Gladiolus seems like basic hack en slash. Can't wait to see more
