Final Fantasy XV 1.15 Update

>>388751364
>They even added some exposition to the hunts you undertake which I didn't expect.
That's great. I was so disappointed when I first saw the hunts and it was literally just "go kill thing" with no explanation or anything and the same generic "for habitat destruction" on every poster. Shit like this should be a way to flesh out the world, not make it feel like it was all copypasted.

Also, maybe it's just my placebo effect but it feels like they did something with the gameplay and it feels smoother. But probably not and I'm just imagining things

At least they brought back vibration during hits

How am I (>>388752371) a shill? If I were a paid marketer, I would have been telling people to get the game as soon as possible. I was saying that I'm looking forward to getting the PC version of the game with all of the DLC and the post-retail improvements, giving a more complete experience that the early adopters missed out on through their first playthrough.

I've never played the game before.

>>388753097

Only the stuff included in the first season pass. The multiplayer expansion wasn't included in it, and it's likely that anything after Episode Ignis won't be included either.

WHO the fuck were half the people in this game ?

I'm so confused

So I haven't followed this game at all, but isn't it a single player JRPG? That came out like a year ago? Why is it still getting updates? What for?

That's a job for the DLC.

>>388756063
Square Enix almost folded and they're trying their hardest to gain appreciation from the barely existing FFXV fanbaes so they have more loyal customers in case they fuck up again. The only reason they didn't go under was because of their fans, so they're trying however they can to appeal to them.

What's a mystery is why they think FFXV is good. Both the company and the fans.

>>388756063
Let's just say it was released undercooked
Waaaaaaay undercooked.
What we basically got was an early access game at best.

>>388755946
>WHO the fuck were half the people in this game ?
Got any examples? I can't think of any characters off the top of my head that just pop up without any explanation of who they are.

>>388756063
Because SquEnix have the worst system possible for their games in place.
>Lets work on a game for 10 years having to nearly redo it from scratch multiple times and wasting millions of dollars
>Oh shit the loss of focus made it into a bizzare and not very fun game lets recycle assets to try and recoup our losses
Expect a 15-2 and 15-3 like we got with LIGHTING while they try and squeeze a profit from this mess

>>388756063
It didn't come out right and they are trying to fix it. It can't be fixed with patches though as the game's flaws are deeply rooted in its contruction.
FF15 is like a frankenstein's monster, many different parts sewed together. Some parts are good some parts less but mash them together and they form a monstruosity with gameplay elements that get in each others way.

>hoping to get great combat like DMC

Dev team wanted to continue working on it, SE wouldn't let them extend the release date any more, so we got an unfinished game and a slow trickle of updates and DLC.

Who is ardyn ? That one isn't fair but for a main villain he could have used a bit more screentime.

Who is the hunter lady that help you out ?
Who in the holy fuck is the second butler that shows up at the light house ?

This is what happen when you fags want OPEN WORLD. Open world games are shit.

>>388758109
The open world "part" of the game was the only good part of the game but it complelty wrecks the narative.
Thar story is not designed to work in an open world where you just fuck off anywhere every 5 minutes.

>>388752465
Can you explain to me what you like about the combat? I see you playing DMC so how can you stomach FFXV?

>>388758408
This. If they wanted open world they should have designed a narrative that fits the fact that you might end up going 10 hours between starting chapters.

I really don't like it desu.

I just liked the character design since the Versus days and concept of the multiple weapons conjuring and comboing together in a flashy manner combined with teleports and shit.

Just trying to forcefully squeeze out something off the game since I didn't get what I initially wanted

>>388752746
Hey man I have a ton of complaints for this game but the monsters aren't one of them. The enemy variety XV has along with their animation+model quality is among the best in open world games.

>>388758835
I remember fighting crocodiles and goblins way more than i probably did.

>>388758785

But yeah, as this anon said >>388758687 I really compared it to DMC. I wanted a more grounded KHII, sure, but I play DMC for my dozage of pure action.

Goodnight faggot.

>>388758785
I see. It just struck me as odd that you have critique videos and opinions of FFXV but you're clearly pretty damn good at action games. But then you also have those couple of boring ass videos of FFXV without any critique. I was wondering if you actually found it fun somehow, when you've achieved max fun levels in DMC.

>>388758687
I can't see how you wouldn't compare the two, FFXV was always trying to appeal to action game fans.

>>388758457
I personally lower my standards for action rpgs. I know they don't have the responsiveness and depth of an actual action game (for some reason arpgs have watered down combat) so I don't judge them the same. FFXV's combat is pretty good for it's genre. Probably my favorite, even if the game was built around holding O and you can't get the second hit of a Greatsword to come out without holding or rapidly mashing(which is essentially holding).

>>388759369
I usually don't compare anything to DMC but FFXV was going for the same aesthetic as it, and to me it's waaay less fun than even your typical shitty ARPG.

Where have you been?

>>388758457
Personally the fact that it's an action game automatically puts it above any turn based game for me

>>388760254
So you play RPGs to mash buttons?

>>388756849
>SE wouldn't let them extend the release date any more
tbqh, if they had waited, FFXV would've still looked like even more shit in comparison to Horizon, Near a Tomato, BotW and Persona 5.

>>388760528
I prefer being in control of my character and having skill matter over sitting back, watching the game play itself and having everything handled by stats and dice rolls.
How anyone can ever enjoy a turn based game is beyond me. That's something you have to put up with when playing an RPG. Terrible combat for good story.
Unfortunately there's a lot of idiots like you who think it's not an RPG unless it's aping D&D and making you roll dice to hit and shit.

>>388760861
I can't fathom how you're calling me an idiot when you're implying FFXV is a game that doesn't play itself and where skill matters. I like ARPGs too but you said something absolutely retarded.

>>388760631
It wouldn't matter because if they'd waited, it wouldn't release around those and we'd still be waiting for it.

>>388760861
You really shouldn't talk when you haven't played it. It's just as much autoplay as the old games, it just looks flashier and you can walk around

>>388754006
Versus never existed outside of trailers and storyboards, so you got your Versus already.

>>388755946
You had to watch the anime. This is indefensible and if they would have just turned them into in-game cutscenes the game would gave benefited greatly.

>>388761014
More developement wouldn't have fixed the game either they would have needed to scrap it and start again from the begining and all in one go this time. It's best they called it quits.

>>388757916

I wanted to see how Ardyn twisted the mind of the emperor. How he single handedly warped the focus of an entire nation holy fuck.
How does his shtick even works anyway, the guy opens all the fucking doors he wants it makes no sense. We're talking about the most powerful military on the continent don't they have some kind of system to check who goes in and out of what and when ?

You ask me if i was a niflheim comander and i saw someone shady as fuck like Ardyn going around without an ID disapearing regularly from the grid i'd do everything in my power to have him executed JUST IN CASE.

Because FF has been surpassing all our expectations lately?

>>388757916

The movie, DLC and anime answer some of this... partially at least. Though you're still entirely correct, since it should all have been in the game. Also, there are some even bigger "literal who's" that you didn't even bring up.

Like the 3 imperial leaders who appear in one or two cutscenes while looking important, then never show up again. This despite the fact that they appeared in trailers, in scenes that weren't even in the final game.

>>388763125
I wish i had your expectations
I hope not every mainline FF will be an early access game from now on

>>388762910
Ardyn's hot deep dickings is just that good. They're already talking about some Ardyn prequel or some shit so I guess we'll be a seeing a Ardyn: How Izunia Fucked Me Evil dlc or something soon.

>>388763274
The one that made me realize something wasn't right was near the start a guy shows up on a ship and he's in a CG cutscene so i think he must be important. He says "i'll prove the world you're not Cor THE IMMORTAL" (oh shit these two have a history) then gets into a mecha, we fight the mecha, kill it, it explodes but i didn't see the guy make it out of it. As far as i was concerned he was dead just like that leaving me with a single question :
Was is supposed to know this guy ?

Only thing it did well was looking good but even that failed in some scenes

>>388763943

That was one of the ones I meant yeah. What a fucking trainwreck of a story. Obviously he was supposed to be a recurring character but his part of the story was cut.

He actually DOES show up in an optional sidequest late in the game... in the form of a voiceover coming from a robot boss. The characters don't mention what happened to him the first time or whether he dies or not in the second fight, and it's not clear if he's inside the robot or he IS the robot or whatever the fuck.

>>388764252
It lacked in cinematic aspect, that's why.

>>388763943
Loqi was probably another remnant of Versus XIII that didn't have time to be reworked entirely, much like how Gladio's father just kind of barely gets mentioned in passing (and only exists to die in the movie) despite being heavily featured in early promo materials.

Yeah, the bodies in the throne room were just illusions meant to piss off Noctis even though we're never shown him so much as meeting Nyx. I just mean that it looked as though he was turning to ash, and if that was the case there'd be no body left to go daemon.

All the monster designs are pretty great in FFXV, it's one of the things FFXV actually did right.

So DLC only enemies aren't in bestiary?

>>388769186
So Ramuh is responsible for that weird looking island near Galdin where Noct spent his 10 years. I wonder if he helped put Noctis there.

While we're still on the topic of the beastiary what is after the Grootslang, and before the Bandersnatch.
>>388769564
Huh, damn I thought it did.
>>388769739
That's what it looks like. He should be under Nilfheim or Demons shouldn't he? I've been Episode Prompto and he's not showing up in mine but I do have a couple of ??? in mine.

These designs look nice for a lot of the monsters, I'll give this game huge props for that
>>388769347
God he looks so terrible.

>>388769341
It only makes a sense if Ardyn was to be King of Newly named Kingdom of Lucis. His father could be ruler of people living at that place, but Ardyn might be first to have official title.

>>388769915
So there is chance for them to appear in later updates.

>>388770480
The ???? is probably from stuff I haven't personally encountered, but I'm sure that the DLC enemies could be entered in later.

Would be great, since enemies from Ep Prompto could have some lore in description.

Anyone want anything else from the beastiary?

>>388771142
I like XIV and don't mind World's

I am pretty jealous that the people who waited for the pc version are probably going to get an immensely less disappointing experience since the post updates and prompto dlc pretty much fix most of the games narrative and gameplay shortcomings. Only big narrative hole not filled in is how shitty kingsglaive and luna are,

>>388771327
Are the Niflheim mechas in? post those please

>>388771142
XIVs design is kinda nice actually, maybe a bit too much at the front.
I'd like a more slim looking dragon like in some of the older games though.

>>388753432
Can't rotate Chadarnook either. Guess SE wants everyone fapping to Titan instead.

>>388771327

The Naga that captures Prompto

One from WoFF was good, Not only was one of funniest characters, but din't even look that bad.

To be honest only middle row looks truly cancerous

So there is the movie, the anime, and the game. Should I play them in a particular order, or should I just dive in to the game first.

>>388772119
No way of knowing until we know who is working on it.

>>388771142

Well, a "good" Bahamut design as far as /v/ is concerned is a winged lizard with no distinguishing features. So, fuck that.

Hard to say, for some reason FF had huge problems over the past few years compared to any other series from Square.
Depends on who's the director, if they decide to make a new engine/keep this one/ switch halfway through etc. and most important they just need a clear vision and don't go for innovation.
Just have some good characters, a decent story and universe, tons of endgame content, optional summons etc.
It really doesn't take that much

Movie is cut-content from start of the game, and shows how everything went to hell. Problem is that without knowledge of some crucial fact from endgame one can't understand why some characters acts suicidal.

Honestly, most of this shit would be pretty out of place during the main story and is better kept to optional content like this.
It would probably be better mentioned when accepting hunts and shit though, like how in XII you had to actually talk to the client to start them and they'd give insight into why you're killing shit.

I think things like that are better left unanswered since it gives the players something to speculate about. It's not like it's a major plot point going unresolved or anything. Did it ever exist? Is it still alive? Did she kill it when she turned daemon, or did it turn daemon too and was just one of the many trash encounters you killed on your way there? This kind of thing seems more fun to me than just having a concrete answer fed to us, but I get that it's not for everybody.

Anyone else put off about how the weapons in the multiplayer controls nothing like the weapons in the actual game?

This looks just sad without lady on the top.

It's not so new, saw fanfics of Dad!Cor and little Prompto in December or something.

My personal theory is that Ardyn took Prompto from laboratory to Insomia. Just to make sure Noct have one Blond friend, just like the figure beside choosen king in Genesis Painting.
For the same reason he blinded Ignis - If you'd look close enough, one of painted guys have blindfold.

And for Gladio? He's supporting othes in the painting, so he supposed to be strong. And what's a better test of strenht than battle with Ardyn's personal Shield (most probably)

>>388777609
There' always one guy that calls everyone xv-kun too many times.
I just hate people like xv-kun that go out of their way to defend every single aspect of the game to their death and attacks everyone with opinions that he doesn't like.

All Daemons in the XV-verse are humans infected with the Starscourge so it's a safe bet her baby is either being raised by foster parents somewhere or it turned just like her.

It really depends on what you want honestly. A lot of people like the roadtrip stuff with 4 bros, then there're fanboys that just say it's the greatest thing ever created. Imo it did the open world part pretty shitty, only one hunt at a time, combat is just as casual as most FFs just more flashy, never really got attached to the characters except for Ignis and the story itself isn't good imo or rather way too much stuff either doesn't happen at all so characters get no exposition or stuff happen offscreen or before the game in a movie and you're supposed to just accept it.

>400 pounds
for what purpose

>>388760232
>and to continue monetization of the existing userbase
but what monetization? FFXV doesn't really have microtransactions

>>388785424
Damn, those things are creepy. Even more when you think, there could be Prompto's face under the helmet

>>388785476
Prompto is a big boy.

>>388785563
You haven't kept up with all of the other shit they're doing with FFXV have you?

>>388785697
what microtransactions did they add? isn't it just the season pass?

Become as gods

So...is FFXV actually finished yet?

>look on playstation store
>season pass is $24.99
>episode gladiolus and episode prompto are $4.99 each
kek, I wonder how many people paid an extra $12 for basically nothing

>>388786078
no

>>388786078
nope

>>388786078
they haven't added multiplayer yet so no

>>388785853
There's the seasons pass.
The shitty mobile game that's just a shitty build your empire clone, FFXV: A New Empire
Monsters of the Deep.
FFXV: Pocket Edition
>>388786078
Ask again in December 2018.

>>388786078
Imo we'll never reach a finished state as in every chracter gets good exposition that isn't just text on a loading screen and shit. Not to mention that it has no optional summons and the actual postgame stuff is one more difficult version of a midgame dungeon and a platorming only dungeon.
Finished as in all DLC? No
Finished an in all updates and survey stuff? Never ever.

The interview about the survey is just another retarded XV related thing.
>we might only add one or two things of the survey guys so don't expect too much
>ardyn and luna have the most votes but why might not add them at all because there's SO much story to them
>non of it is in the main game
>one character barely have screentime
What are they thinking

>>388786380
those aren't really microtransactions though - season pass is just standard DLC

The mobile shit isn't microtransactions either - they're separate games no one gives a fuck about

>>388786656
They're going into the monenization of the userbase though.

>>388786813
I guess. Did anyone actually buy the VR stuff though?

And I have to admit - I have zero interest in buying it, but it is kinda crazy that they're apparently remaking the entire game as a chibi mobile title

>>388786930
I believe Monsters of the Deep got delayed didn't it?

>but it is kinda crazy that they're apparently remaking the entire game as a chibi mobile title
I know why they're doing it, but damn if that isn't a waste of time and energy.

>>388786930
Seems like it's mostly story progression, so they probably don't have a lot of the mosnter models and stuff and it uses the same music and voices from the main game so that also saves time.
It actually doesn't look too bad, but having to pay for every episode after 1 is just another thing why i hate the mobile system.

Open world is a mistake. Current console can't handle it and gameplay suffer from being dumb down to compensate

>>388777784
I think its also cause what FF represents the household mainstream jrpg and people want to see something niche they like overtake it, so it just leads to massive shitflinging and rooting for it to fail. Its happened to past FF's coincidently with the biggest faux rivalry being between the same franchises (people kept trashing XII in favor of p4, and people do the same for Xv and p5)

I think its retarded especially since XV, p5, nier, and so forth are just representing how jrpgs are coming back, Also it was fucking retarded how much shitflinging people did with nier and FFXV when not only are they both from square both directors have expressed enjoying the other game and did crossovers in both.

Goddamn this game has good enemy design. I think I'm going to play it for the first time in like 5 months.

>>388787592
I hope they reuse them for other games or maybe XIV or some shit, would be a waste to just have them in XV and then never use htem again.

>>388779290
didn't tabata say he was handing it off to someone else to make content for the game after this? We already confirmed whatever new ip hes making entered development a little while ago. I just hope its not the dragon game.

>>388787717
tabata should be fired

>>388787717
I don't remember seeing anything like that. He might have though.

>>388787695
I didn't hate 15 like a lot of people did. But I'd rather they take a new crack at them. Part of the fun of FF is seeing new interpretations of old ideas. For example the biomechanical interpretation of the monsters in FF13 was really cool.

>>388787460
Consoles are hardly the problem. The problem is that most devs just either make them too big or dont fill them with content that isn't repetitive or boh even.
XV has 3-4 dungeons but aside from that the sidequests are really nothing special at all and too many of them are collect thing or kill things and bring me my thing back and then there're small things that end up being huge flaws like only being able to do one hunt at a time so you'll always have to go back and forth after every kill.
That said open world is still shit, no matter how good your hardware is when the devs can't keep up. XV just looked at too many games and tried to live up to them but halfassed most of it.
Multiple big hubs or a world as big as Dragons Diga is way better imo if it leads to more varietey

>>388787992
That's true, XV mostly has really oldschool designs just in modern 3d.
At this pont there really isn't too much left i could think of though. I wish they'd make a FF again that has a less realistic artstyle, something like IX or mybe even try to immitate Amanos art including the shading etc. We are definitley at a point where we could do it and Square has hte 2d and 3d artists for it.
But it will be years before we hear of a new mainline game anyways

>>388786078
They literally said during gamescon that people were asking for more story content, especially fleshing out Ardyn, and Tabata specifically said "ehh... That would need too much work, so maybe we'll make a spin off movie or something"
They gonna keep fracturing FFXV into more small pieces and sell them at high price.
I've never seen in my whole life such an unacceptable economic model.

>Assassin's Festival is up
Welp, time to give that a try I guess.

>>388786083
Isn't the rest for that multiplayer mode?

>>388768924
Played the game for 95 hours, 2 grinding trophies (fishing+cooking) away from the platinum, never saw Titan in action once.

FML

>>388790371
>same minigames as ChocoMogFest
It's shit.

Holy shit, why are Square-Enix still sending idiots like >>388751781 and >>388751364 to shill this garbage game? Give it a fucking rest, it was a failure and nothing you do now will save it. It is too fucking late to make it a complete game, you should've done it before you released it.

>>388769347
wtf they turned him into a gundam

>>388794397
How does that look anything like a fucking gundam? Where is the retarded v fin?

>>388794386
>one post outright says the hunts were disappointing copypasta
>shilling
Why is it that you shitflingers can never seem to read the entirety of a post before you start throwing a tantrum?

As much as I like this game, I am waiting for the eventual international edition with everything in it. Hopefully they integrate all the character dlcs so that it doesn't have to be accessed in the menu.

>>388762910
Is ardyn the redhead guy? I thought he was going to be revealed as ifrit and it would've been some cool top ten anime betrayals shit, but no he's just an asspull evil guy for no real reason beyond muh immortality made me nihilistic.

Can you just imagine how much cooler it would've been if he turned out to be Ifrit in disguise? Especially when they reveal that the ghost lady was shiva all along, they introduce the idea that summons can take human form then never do anything else with it.

And what the fuck was ifrits problem anyway, he's just kinda there and you have to fight him for some reason

Fuck I'm mad at this game all over again.

>>388758785
man they completely botched Noctis's fighting style. He looked so vicious in the early trailers and then he ended up like some kind of fairy. its like hes not in control of what hes doing hes just attached to a moving weapon.

>>388752746
lel and all you do in other final fantasies is just click X all day and use a summon every once in awhile.
