In last year’s Final Fantasy 12: The Zodiac Age trailer, it looked like we’d be stuck with Vaan’s spray-on abdominals. But now it seems like we won’t. Thank goodness for that!

Below is a comparison from last year showing how Vaan’s PS2 abs stack up to the ones in the remaster’s debut trailer.

Still freaky!

Earlier this autumn, people noticed that Square Enix had apparently fixed Vaan’s abs.
See? They look normal.
They did it.
They finally did it.

In the most recent trailer for Final Fantasy 12: The Zodiac Age, we see that, yes, Vaan no longer has spray-on abs.

These new abs might be Square Enix’s best remastering work yet.

They didn’t really fix them, don’t listen to Ondore’s lies.
I’ve played through that entire game twice & honestly have no recollection of that weird-arse torso! (Probably because I was playing in standard-def…) Looks like something out of Alien!
Same – I couldn’t tell through my shitty TV the size of a small house.
Oh, I love how people complain how it looks bad when it’s literally explainable by being a flat texture on a mesh because it’s the fucking PS2 era and complex models were years and years away. Even these days we still have a shit tonne of cutting corners when it comes to graphics, I don’t get gamers…
I played this on an emulator for pc….*shush*…Man, so impressed but I was a little disturbed by the abs….Can’t wait for the remaster.
