    Is the place where Luna was captured as a child and the place where she is brushing the soldiers asside the same place?

    The Another Side, Another Story series of trailers were some of the most exciting game trailers ever and you're going to compare 1 minute of boring exposition to them?

    They're actually quite comparable. We're given little context as to what is going on, and while there is no Keyblade action to speak of, we do get a lot of emotion conveyed through the music, the cinematography, etc. The style is different, but the trailers are very much in the vein of that, in that they tell us nothing substantial, instead setting up the tone for the story.

    The 'keyblade action' isn't some small thing to be brushed aside like you just did when comparing trailers. There were major, game changing reveals in those couple of KH trailers; the difference in the heartless shadows, two smurfing keyblades being wielded at once (take note FFXV, cutscenes can be used to show you a glimpse of gameplay), a returning character who looked completely different, and some actual dialog. This FF trailer is nothing but out of context images, 80% of which we've already seen. How do you know Luna isn't just walking to the other side of the room to look out of a window? I'll answer for you, you don't, because there's no context to what we're seeing. If I rationally follow that Dawn trailer to its conclusion then Luna is either just getting up to stretch her legs or she's going to be shot, that's the only two scenarios that make sense to me. What's the point of training a gun on someone if you're just going to let them walk out of the room?

    I'm not saying the story is going to be bad, but the trailer is lazy, and I garner zero hype from it. They heard people complain that Luna was too damsel in distress and so they've shown you one ridiculous, nonsensical scene where she does something kind of bad ass and everyone just laps it up. I don't get it, but that's just me.

    Found the concept art more interesting than the trailer, if I'm honest, but I'm still looking forward to this game either way.
    Bow before the mighty Javoo!

    This does shed some more light on the mysterious "black haired lady", however, the dragoon has already been confirmed as blonde.

    More info from TGS. Confirms a lot of my speculation Tenebrae is under control by the Niflheim empire, which explains the trailer of Luna getting attacked as a child.

    Also the black haired woman has a name "Gentiana"

    Seriously, though. My wife and I have been talking recently about how there's so many fishing minigames in RPGs. There's one in Persona 4, BoF had them, so has FFXII. What is up with Japan and fishing? ...oh.

    EDIT: Found more art on tumblr!













    Is Luna the Pope?

    She's "The Oracle" which is probably like the pope!

    The fishing mini-game looks very dull, but popping skiddies on a chocobo looks amazing!
