Why? That is really changes the dynamic of the scene.
Haha whoah that's like literally two different scenes. Ill stick with the Japanese VA (best Cidney voice) but man people are going to be mad at the difference.
Yea that's weird.
Its a different scene, technically.
Best bet is that its based on a dialogue choice the character makes to make a response. like: Choose to play along or choose to deny, or something.
edit: seriously, look at it again, the cameras are different the acting is different, etc. It seems like a dialogue choice rather than just a straight up big change in region material...
Possible dialogue option, only both times they've edited the choice out of the video?
It's like this in the whole game unfortunately...
In Japanese Cindy seems more sympathetic towards the guys because her grandpa is so tough on them, in English she almost seemed to find that funny. In Japanese there is no mention of King Regis' death in the newspaper in English they shoehorned it in for some inexplicable reason.
Huh? The Neo version would have the exact same button prompts as the regular PS4 version. But I also think it's unlikely. Some time ago they said they had no set plans for a neo version yet and they just had to delay the game for two months to get the regular versions in order...
Dialogue is bound to be different but in the video the scene with Iris plays out differently. Which isn't the case with your other examples.
I get what you're saying (and thats definitely on the localization team, though) but that's not what this is.
God bless language options
Nono... The video showed off 2 builds of the ps4 version. Button prompts on each subsequent build are slightly different (specifically the hold button prompts). The one with prompts that differ slightly from the gamescom version looks considerably sharper in IQ (or at least thats what I found), so I thought that was what you were refering too. sorry.

Are you saying they show two different builds in this footage? If so, i would appreciate if you could time stamp them.

XBO definitive version confirmed. PS4 only capable of displaying one Chocobo.
Ugh.
But i'll give the benefit of the doubt, and assume it's because of timing, during the dubbing process.
Still, subtitles all the way, as usual.
I refuse to believe it.
For a clear look at the newer build it'd be from:
10:12 - 12:45
15:20 - 16:30
27:56 - 28:28
31:14 - 31:32
The older (presumably, hopefully) gamescom build for ps4 are:
28:30 - 30:46 (yes I think the fishing is part of the older build)
31:34 - 32:08
All the other gameplay (not cut-scene as I can't tell which builds those are from tbh) is from the xbox one gamescom build.
The newer build has less Lod issues (though not perfect) and better IQ. Its especial apparent when they switch from chocobo free riding to chocobo racing
You guys should watch the part in question before commenting...
Honestly... Its not a dubbing or localizing thing, the whole scene is different and it looks like its because of dialogue choice...

The 756 part makes me wince.

It could just be some sort of FF7-esque mechanic that changes scenes based on previous choices? If it's language version differences, how would they handle when you picked JP audio with EN subtitles? Would it play the JP cutscene? Are there two versions of subtitles then? I think it's just a different version of the cutscene.
Yeah Neo will 1080p locked 30FPS easy. Outside of that I don't expect much in terms of rising IQ.
Oh, that'd be fine.
still better than 720p
Unless the cpu is a lot better too along with the gpu, I wouldn't go in expecting that. :/
So, I apologize for bringing this discussion back into the limelight (hur hur hur) but taking another look at the tomb scene:
If you notice Prompto, he's standing where light from the ceiling falls. I'm wondering if those same highlights would have been on Cor and Noctis at certain times of the day, more closely recreating the look of the Uncovered trailer.
Incidentally, slightly further on in this JP video at 23:40 and 24:18 you can see the light actually moving (lol accelerated day/night cycle?)
so... dragonzdogma redeemed?

LOL
Stun? Petrification? Poor development? Esuna only works on one of them!

It really made it seem as if Noctis ran so fast that he left a cloud of dirt behind him lmao
Finished the JP vid. I'm... actually kinda undecided for JP or EN on first playthrough. A lot of the subtle body language works a lot better with the Japanese dialogue pacing (for obvious reasons) but I think I actually prefer the four bro's characterization in English (don't hurt me)
(The "we'll play hide and seek with him!" line aside. Wow)

Like most games with Japanese audio and English text, they don't necessarily have to match.
But it could really just be two versions of the same scene.
Also hopping for some better AA seeing as how most AA techniques depend heavily on gpu.
The animation is completely different!
OMG, it is like one screen is from a rainy, clouded day and the other one is in beautiful sunshine! O:
Oh man that gives me something akin to the Tales of Hearts R localization,though this at least has a dub I guess.

I hope this is related to their post-processing not being fully implemented in the Master Version, the English gameplay had bleached scenes like this all over the place. I really hope this isn't time of day related because wow. The English one could be a PS3 game for all I know.
So could this mean that even if I chose Japanese audio, the English subtitles wouldn't be accurate anyway?
Of course they won't make subs for Japanese dub. Sub will reflect English VO.
Games, unlike movies and tv, are subbed to match the english VO instead of providing a completely different script that more accurately matches the japanese VO.
Essentially when you have dual audio, the subtitles will be dubtitles.

Language options won't change the subtitles.
