Oh my god! What a nice thing this was after an 8 hour long day at work. The visual, the gamepaly, Aqua, Back Cover, DDD HD. Simply glorious. Man, there was so many things in this trailer that I liked.
First, holy heck the visual style of the world in 0.2 looks good! It`s better that I could have imagined. The Cinderella world truly looks scary. Time is broken and it was a nice touch how the bricks were kinda frozen in mid air and stuff, like the rest of the town. I guess because the bridge collapses you go down to the village and then try to make up your way to the castle. Aqua sliding down from the bridge was awesome.
We knew this already from the other trailers and DDD, but man that world looks huge. But despite that, I got the feeling that it`s "alive" in a way. Like the plants in Twilight Town made the town look more lively, it`s kinda hard to explain. I feel like that the little details in the broken Cinderella world made it feel less sterile or something like that.
I feel like Aqua`s model could use a bit more polish, but this is a huge step up since the last time we saw her. But this is only a minor complaint. I really loved hos she tried to reach the starts... like a fallen angle trying to reach heavens from the depths of hell.
Also, the visuals of the spells looks freaking epic. You would expect that sot of power from a -ga tier spell. Also the stun is back like Launchapd said and that makes me super happy, and it seems that they will indeed integrate the command menu with the command style`s, and possibly with other things. Ooh, this is so exciting. I like how they still kept the shadows forming a massive wave from the first trailer. It will be an interesting fight.
Aanndd holy hell does Back Cover looks visually impressive! Just the shot at the black coat lad in the cliff, looking up in the sky in the wind. Man.... just look the grass move with the wind. The sky and the clouds looks marvelous. The actions scenes looked also really good and I am liking the voices of the Foretellers. Ephemra`s face looked absolutely fantastic.
I might be looking too much into this, but did anyone else get the feeling that the "theme" of this trailer was focused around time? One of the core parts of DDD was time travel and the DDD part ends with Young Xehanort`s clock themed Keyblade. 0.2 is played in a world were time is frozen, and it had that big close up to the castle`s clock. In Back Cover time is running out and the end of the world is approaching. Back Cover part of the trailer ended with the gathering of the other wielders and Ava near Daybreak Towns clock tower. Or that is where I assume the town square is.
