Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age has many fans waiting in anticipation! This long-awaited HD remaster of Final Fantasy XII is finally coming to PS4 in 2017.
Join me as I sit down with Wolf Kanno to talk about everything new in the HD rerelease of this wonderful Ivalice epic.
Nice video. Now I'm once again sad it's not gonna be out until next year.
The talk about the sandsea reminded me that in the IZJS version the BGM for the Nam Yensa Sandsea was changed from the same drab sandsea theme you're probably sick of by that point of to the Cerobi Steppe theme. And that was like... wow. Just by changing up the music the entire area has a completely different feel to it, making the sandsea trek feel a lot less monotonous.
Good video guys! I'm actually looking forward to this game more now after watching this. I almost completed FFXII but didn't get around to it in the end. Like you both said, FFXII was so different from past entries that I didn't really feel the game appealed that much to me, but I've wanted to go back to it for a while and see if I can gain a new appreciation for it. I think the new job system might help because it will feel like everyone has more of a role to play in battle. Also interested in hearing some of the new music and hearing the cast again because I remember the voice acting being very good.
Seriously though I really enjoyed the Podcast. I'm not much of a podcast person but you guys kept it interesting, it flowed well, you worked well together, and it didn't overstay its welcome. You also covered a few things I was thinking. So good job guys!
I'm certain Canoe is cheating and not using his natural voice. Or he's doing some audio postprocessing!
Even after learning about the actual meaning on Uhlan (which i knew before listening to this podcast!), I still like to imagine some brainstorming session among the dev team and some guy says "ok so we need a name for this class that's using a lance, any ideas?", then another guy is like "Uh, lan..." and the first guy immediately interrupts him and shouts "GREAT let's go with that."
Wolf Kanno totally did a different voice in the intro to this, I'm tellin' ya. Confused the hell out of me when he spoke to Fynn in a totally different voice.
Okay, I can't watch the whole thing here at work but everyone's comments about WK's voice I had to hear a little bit of it. WK, your voice is so deep and smooth
My voice just naturally slips into that tone I use in the beginning. Mainly when I'm reading off stuff. I've been told I have the making for a very smooth villain voice.
Perfect accompaniment for my train journey to work this morning!
I still have my original copy of FFXII. Unfortunately, my purchase of it coincided with the death of my PS2 from a water infection. That being the case I've never experienced the game. I remember the reaction to it upon release though and I agree with everything you guys said. Including how some attitudes to the game seem to have changed over the years.
Having recently aquired a new PS2 the question I need to ask myself is... do I wait for the HD version or do I experience it sooner than that in all its retro glory?
