Sony released this 14 minutes long video of a visit at Level 5's gorgeous offices, and also showing quite a bit of their game White Knight Chronicles. Lots of talk in Japanese of course, but you can seek to arounf 5 minutes to see the game in action.
Loakum @Driftwood Awesome! I’m loving it! It does show a much crisper picture and the frame rate looks good! I was playing Stella Blade and Dragonball Soarkling Blast! :) (2 Days ago)

It is particularly amazing how much this game looks gorgeous in motion rather than in screens.
Whereas online might get a visual downgrade from offline but features-wise it surpasses even the already huge offline. When Online, the game offers PS-Home like central hub from where 4 players co-op can replay the entire campaign mode and in multiplayer, 4 players can go hunting in groups an enormous variety of monsters just like the excellent Monster Hunter series :)
Thats a lot, to say when you are talking about a jRpg. This is a definite epitome of jRpg stuff this generation.
I hope there is a demo of this because so far it isn't looking all that appealing.
About the game:
Real combat still looks clumsy, nothing like the first trailer at all. The graphics are okay but nothing breathtaking.
I guess it depends on story and character development whether this game will be to good or not.
I feel so sad that this is made by Level 5

The multiplayer looks like a MMO from 4-5 years back too
The fact that MP looks like crap, does not make the SP any less garbage looking at all

I think PS3 fanboys have gone to totally dillusional status
The game looks like crap, that is all, just get over it and stop trying to pass shit as the best thing ever, just because it is on the PS3

BTW, this game looks really promising and i look forward to seeing some new footage on it.

It insults my intelligence
But if someone can post that this crap looks amazing, why should i not post what i think it looks like ?

There are better looking JRpgs this gen but all have very old school gameplay, very little, confined environments and lots of loading scenerios. Plus they all lack online too. With what is proposed here, the visuals are great.
Fable-2 looks really really horrible at places too, anyone can collect a butt-load of absolutely ugly looking pictures from Fable-2 also(from grass to exact same looking houses to trees to ugly wall textures), and I have been very skeptic of it in the past. But to know how many features it offered is nothing short of staggering.
Same goes for GTA4, the ugliest looking next-gen single player adventure game, but knowing the amount of stuff offered in it, you get the picture.
You talk about some intelligence :) I appreciate that you have evolved half way towards mankind there ;)
One of the worst things about the last gen visuals, is that the environments are mediocre and generic too, so they can't support it with some great art either
In general WKC suffers from last gen visuals and terrible art/world design and a generic MMO feeling
Add the horrible combat system, which is one of the worst i have seen, and you get the picture
Fable 2 not only uses a next gen engine, especially in lighting and detail you can have around, but the world feels stunning everywhere, each new area is filled with stuff and things to see, and never feels like a generic emptyness
In short, WKC is nothing like Fable 2, it has more in common with generic MMOs running on a 4-5 years old PC, than any SP RPG this generation, JRPG or WRPG
For reference Infinite Undisocvery looks vastly better in both visuals and combat than WKC, and IU not even miles close to how amazing Fable 2 graphics and combat are
BTW Infini9te Undiscovery has both big leves and true real time combat, and both done far better than in WKC, as for Fable 2, its world looks phenomenal, thebest Fable 2 places are leaps and bounds better than the best i haves een of WKC
In general WKC suffers from last gen visuals and terrible art/world design and a generic MMO feeling

Leaps and bounds? Heh, we really are getting messages from an ovary;) check out the trees, plantation or character models, come on infant, don't cry. And Fable2's combat is equally erratic, some like it, some hate it. Fable2's co-op is universally acclaimed an extra(floppy).
But you didn't answer my question, I asked you to name a single jRpg this generation that has an open ended non-loading world like WKC, or has true real time battle gameplay, or that has huge online components(both co-op and mp). You are coming back with rantings on the secluded and handicapped IU? no good man, you are loosing it, you're here just to bash this game and with no solid arguments ;). The storm will hit you the most on christmas night :)

So, there is your JRPG this generation, it only lacks online, which i could not care less about
I wouldrather have a smaller world in WKC, that does not look generic and empty, but detailed and interesting instead
Also if they can't get the real time combat right, they should stick with turn based
