Did the devs think no one was going to notice?

I thought FF XVI released on Steam because they are pushing a promo poster from a character that looks very close to Clive. What a cheap attempt to bait players Squenix.

[Tiviani]

The WoL they use as the promo has always been the human male with brown hair.

If anything they designed Clive to look a little like the default WoL but even so if they did he looks good. He has way more work and detail done to him then what they use for the poster boy.

Bait players into doing what?

Trying the free trial of the critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV, which includes the entirety of A Realm Reborn AND the award-winning Heavensward expansion up to level 60 with no restrictions on playtime?

all of these FF games but I have yet to see TACTICS

[Veotax]

The poster/marketing character has looked like this for 10 years, 13-ish if you include 1.0, I guess.

They are not trying to "trick" people into thinking this 16, or whatever insanity you're accusing Square of.

I think he's mad that he confused XVI with XIV, and that the main character of 14 has a very similar appearance to 16. So, he believes the devs area trying to bait-and-switch him when really it was posted everywhere that FFXVI was going to be a Playstation exclusive on release.

A ♥♥♥♥ attempt at bait, like it's been happening for so long on the forums, especially since the introduction of awards you can give, trying to bait people into giving clown awards. lol

We're gone from the golden age of Ogre tactics. All future games will now be DMC clones.

[Tardus Coegi]

The FF16 MC is a throughback to FF14's Warrior of Light.

[Acramix]

Idiot..

[Corey]

If anything I think WoL looks like Barnabas not Clive lol. But they've used this guy to promote FFxiv for years so really it's a you problem.
