not sure I understand the Game of Thrones comparisons for FF16

it's invoking western dark fantasy generally but much more like The Witcher or even Dragon's Dogma

is Game of Thrones what people think when they see dark fantasy? I'll admit I know little of it except the TV show being a mostly middling cishet affair

I also don't know how you can see that and not immediately think of Ivalice games. I would be shocked if Matsuno wasn't involved with this game in some capacity. this stuff seems right up his alley.

Joshua is Duke Bardorba's son in Vagrant Story

I'm going fucking feral

@shaderphantom there's also very loud speculation going on about whether FF16 takes place in one of FF14's "shards" because of references to the "mother crystal" and Eikons showing up everywhere in the trailer. this game is gonna be a whole thing
