Square probably have to finalise it because well..whatever crystal do now will effect their "image" so to speak.

Well if you think behind the lines, a good trailer indicates the mindset of the producers, from a good trailer you can tell whether they really are trying or not so it gives you alteast an idea of how well a game is going to be. Agreed a trailer really doesn't represent the game play it self, but it gives an idea of how hard the devs are trying to get the game popular. Have you seen all the trailers of AC, one of the best IMO and it always got me excited. Most games dont live up to the expectations of the trailer but then again do they ever? to expect a game to live up to the trailer is pretty foolish because its obvious by now they don't, but that's not the point.

CD hired people renowned at making good trailers already for example deus ex was pretty good, and final fantasy trailers are awesome =]

They're involved, just not directly.

Then why exactly can't they have control if they're paying for the game? BTW, square enix didn't make the trailer, Visual works did.

Didn't I say that? I remember saying that. I said that.

I think that the reason Visual Works (who are a part of Square Enix if I can recall correctly) had so much control is because they were putting the sweat into it. Whereas with Crystal, they have that sort of creative and time-management control over the game itself.

CD is also part of square enix so i don't see where this logic is coming from... And Karl; said Square Enix denied the idea, not visual works.

Not directly? So sitting in the office play testing the game and sitting in on the developers is not making himself very aware of the game and its mechanics...Plus, his research directly effected the game.

So that means that he knows everything and everything that happens has to go through him, right? No. Even if he has the priveliges to see these things, Karl isn't the boss so things will slip through his fingers and they'll need to be classified.

They're both part of square enix because square enix owns them both.
