- With the timeframe they're considering for the release of the game, it'll be hard to wrap up the story with the first game;

- Cor and the driver from the 2011 trailer are different characters, the voice actor has changed for the later (he was previously also voiced by Hiroki Tochi);

- Warp is a Noct-only ability. We saw examples of its "short" version in the latest trailer, but expect some footage of a "long" warp;

- There are a lot of male characters, but expect some females ones too besides Stella and the black-haired girl. Expect much more characters than the ones we saw in the latest trailer;

- Cor joins later, first party is Noct and the three other dudes;

- They want to find an use for the different console-specific gimmicks such as the PS4 share button;

- Concept of asymmetry between the main characters and the Nifleheim ones, who wear white.

Interesting bits there.The top is both encouraging and discouraging. On one hand, it implies that they are hoping to release sooner rather than later, which would make a late 2014 release the likely target. At the same time, it sort of goes against what Nomura said about the game being a complete story, which I hope remains the case.I'd imagine any sequels would be based on the state of the world after the ending of XV or even perhaps a prequel if that's viable.No surprise Warp is for Noctis only. The long and short mechanic to it is interesting and I'm wondering if perhaps the ability to warp could level up and improve as well.Large case sounds good to me so long as the cast doesn't get too unwieldy.I'm thinking maybe Accordo perhaps for when he shows up then or sometime near the end of the segment in Lucis.Hopefully this ends up being the case as a bad battle system would probably kill this game.
