As we reported yesterday, Square Enix showcased a PC tech test video for Final Fantasy XV at GDC 2017. And today, the big publisher released that video to the public. As we’ve already said, this isn’t a confirmation of Final Fantasy XV coming to the PC but… well… we all know that it’s coming.
For this tech test demo, Square Enix collaborated very closely with the NVIDIA GameWorks team, and was captured on a single NVIDIA GeForce GTX1080Ti
Enjoy!

Meh.
then we too can be all baffled by some the crap these guys randomly say throughout the game.
I’d only play the game anyways if I could mod out the emo poofsters.
Square is high. first they turned their high budget Tomb Raider game into a timed exclusive so they lose money with its hype slowing going away, then they spend millions on advertising FFXV yet won’t use the chance to also sell the PC version with it and now they sandwiched Nier Automata between Zelda and Andromeda. yea different games, but all games nevertheless for those interested in all of them.
FF XV sells really well, it broke even in day one
Why not? It’s business as usual. They make a company to made money and profit not charity.
No, AMD’s poor tessellation in their GPU borked The Witcher 3, as it couldn’t handle the tessellation levels, neither could kepler, as that architecture was less efficient at it. In fact, not much could handle Hairworks, as it involved insane amounts of tessellation and anti aliasing levels too.
The game was shown factually, to run perfectly fine and in line with capabilities of GPU’s, once idiots accepted their cards were not the all powerful Gods they hoped for.
In fact, once Hairworks was turned off, AMD gpu ran in line with Nvidia equivalents and even better at points.
how do you know it’s bad idea? they have their own analyst. if you think you’re better analyst than their analyst, then go make difference work for them and show what you think is better decision for the company.
Well Nvidia don’t seem that up on bad ideas seeing as their market share is massive and their stock is on the up. We either trust professional business men and women or some balloon on a forum that has a bee in his bonnet because Ryzen is Bulldozer 2.0.
“analyst”
That, right there, being the inherent problem.
Analyst =/= CEO, marketing, anything. Analyst = moron in a suit barfing out words nobody else understands because it helps inflate their ego, it doesn’t = guy in charge, who actually makes decisions.
I doubt any analyst suggested to Electronic Arts that they should release Titanfall between Battlefield & Call of Duty, for example, much like I doubt U-BE-SOFT’S analysts recommended they do all the various bullsh*t they’ve been doing for how many years now.
Unless, of course, the analysts they hire are even bigger morons than I figure them to be, in which case, that would actually explain quite a bit, though it would also make them completely irrelevant, thus negating your entire post…..
Um, I’ve had NO issues with Gameworks. Can’t see how you have if you hate Nvidia so much, so you’re talking from 3rd person experiences. Gameworks are EXTRAS, that if your machine can handle, makes the game look better. It works fine here. Yes, there are frame drops from using it, but that’s like saying AA is gimped because you lose FPS if you go from 2x to 8x. OF COURSE YOU DO, THE GPU IS WORKING HARDER!
“If that’s the case, then why is SE shilling for Nvidia?”
Why wouldn’t they?
AMD does same with other titles too.
Nvidia and AMD compete with each other for these contracts, according to what games they see as most important as franchises, Nvidia just generally will get the games it wants, as they have more money to throw at companies.
Because nvidia is better than amd
Point of view argument.
Because AMD are crap?
See above.
Like you said, avarice.
I mean, it’s Square Retards we’re talking about here, after all.
Also, I agree, how in the f*ck did a game that was in development hell for 10 years make its money back within 24 hours, when total shipping figures by January are only 6 million?
That seems to indicate to me that either they’re lying to us, or they reset the “budget” multiple times throughout, probably each time they scrapped a version & started over, in order to not make things look as bad as they really are.
nier automata wouldnt have happen because of low sales, they were pushed to do it by various devs.
FFXII Zodiac Age PLS
Because they trired to make the nvidia gameworks featutres for 1080t i to work on ps4/ps4 pro and since the consoles are not near as powerful as gtx 1080 ti the results was to broke the game.
I mean, i’d take a full fledged stainless steel digital display toastee before any current console.
Those are very sad to look at/play with.
Sadly.
Man this is good news!
This is their research department, these are not the game creators. This part of SE create the tools for the rest of the team to use. It’s not their job to fix anything unless it’s engine related.
