i don't like several of the decisions they made with sidequests and navigation, but i genuinely can't blame them for putting the resources they had into the road trip - which turned out to be the best part of the game - instead of making a kh clone or another corridor ff to service the story
i don't like that their solution to budget/time issues was invariably "it happened offscreen," but i genuinely can't blame them for wanting to ship a complete story no matter the cost, in case the game didn't perform to management's expectations and they'd never get the chance to follow up with a sequel
no amount of artistic genius could satisfy 10 years of steadily-accumulating fanboy headcanon. that doesn't mean ignoring 15's problems, but it also doesn't warrant scapegoating one guy, or even the team, for trying to salvage what they could under impossible restrictions

>>the ff15 reveal trailer was just a target render of what they wanted the game to look like. there wasn't actually any game yet, as they'd only just begun to restart the project
Untrue
>>you know how kh's plot ran away with itself? the ff15 of 2013 had 7 years to grow out of control, into a massively overambitious concept that the team was beginning to pitch as a trilogy
I don't see how that excuses Tabata making a shit game
>>meanwhile, squeenix management wasn't convinced that even the one game was worth the cost, especially with kh3 and ff7 remake in development
FF7R hadn't even begun its planning stages when FFXV was halfway through development
>>when tabata was promoted, he and his team were given only 3 years to build an entire engine and game out of ^this clustershit, under threat that it might be the last big-budget final fantasy ever made if it doesn't perform
They were given 3.5, a huge budget, a shitload of concept pieces, a finished script, assets, a soundtrack, and then decided to make something else anyway. FFV13 was 25% finished when it was changed to FFXV, and FFXV uses a lot of those assets.

I do, but I admit they did a pretty shit job on handling her character. Hopefully the new cutscenes in the future make it up for it.
>>162939480
I don't blame Tabata or Nomura.
I blame the higher ups for keeping the game at lowest priority up until they desperately needed money.
>>162939504
I cared more about Ignis losing his sight than Luna dying
>>162939504
Why would they?
Iris is cute, Gentiana is ara-ara and Aranea is awsome.
There is no point to Luna.
>>162939504
that ugly character design
>>162939507
>I blame the higher ups for keeping the game at lowest priority up until they desperately needed money.
I don't think they believe in the project, personally. The way that last year they dropped the FF7R bomb, and the way that there's been a lot of low budget spin offs/ports in the last few years makes me believe they were expecting XV to bomb and needed to supplement their income.

it's a xenogears situation
the first half is very good and seems like it's setting up an amazing game, but then they ran out of time/budget and it turns to shit until the ending
don't leave the open world in chapter 8 until you're completely done with it; you can go back any time, but story events make it difficult to get back into the camping-and-questing mindset
>>162939515
They were probably the messengers that spoke to humanity on behalf of the gods, an in-game book states there were 24.
Somewhere along the development they just dropped the whole thing and kept seven shivas an that was that

>>162939524
Well, this game has nothing to discuss other than Waifus and Husbando, anon.

Does Gladdy approve?
>>162939535
>>162939531
Just saying, usually we get at least a solid month of discussing games before the /vg/ waifu fags completely derail threads.
>>162939524
It started with waifuposting with some light discussion, to a bunch of days of legit discussion with minimal waifuposting, then to shitpost central of how much XV sucks, and then back to waifuposting.
>>162939524
What would you discuss? Don't say something dumb like "gameplay". You just play the game, you don't have to discuss gameplay unless you're having trouble with a part of the game or it's a multiplayer game.
>>162939504
They gave us zero reasons to. She has barely any screen time and when she does its boring. She is barely a character. She's just tuff every scene. I can barely describe her because I have nothing to work with.
>>162939460
Nah.
>>162939457

It's his fucking idea.
And Noctis keeps botching it.
>>162939466
>>162939524
Iris and Gentiana are tied up. No one can even touch Aranea.
>>162939538
It's just the usual irisfags who like to self insert themselves into Noctis to justify their lust for her even though Noctis has zero interest in Iris.
So it's clear that, in terms of strength, it starts out
1. Lightning (by way of being a goddess or some shit)
2. Noctis
Where do the other FF protags fall?
>>162939548

>>162939560

>>162939538
We have had a shit ton of threads talking about the game but it's just Nomurafags and Tabatafags areguing back and forth over how the game turned out and what could have been.
Just enjoy the game for what it is, a good but flawed game.

Noct looks uncomfortable as fuck in every scene with Iris. From his perspective she is just annoying, clingy shit.

You don't think Terra might be stronger than Noctis? She's like half summon basically, right? If you add human to anything it gets stronger, that's how fictional fantasy genes work.

Well, she IS annoying as fuck. Noctis sighs and grunts most of the time whenever she speaks. Even the nicest dialogue options makes Noct sound like an asshole.

>>162939593

>Ignis: Noctis is more concerned about Lady Lunafreya's well being more than anyone else
>Noctis: I'm going to sleep
>Prompto: You're blushing!

And that's it. Noctis is usually sharp tongued and blunt about everything else. It's honestly one of the reasons why I like him.

>>162939619

I hate how these bro camp quests / scenes are so easily missable unless you hunt them down or obsessively search the map for every haven and them camp at them. They're great touches that add to the characters but I would only seen like two of them unless I looked up the locations for the rest.

I had hope that Ravus was the Vergil of the game. Fight him multiple times then he'd join you in the battle against Ardyn. Afterwards fight over the ring and kill him while Luna cries in the background. Could have been neat.
>>162939614
Does she ever get developed in the game through data or reading a book or whatever?

Even a girl who was cut from the game is better than Luna. And got more screentime too. Luna is so fucking shit, I can't believe they thought she was a good character, let alone main heroine worthy. They do a really shit job at making you care for her, which makes it hard to empathize with Noctis' feelings for her.
>>162939455
>post-timeskip DLC of Aranea, Iris and Cindy traveling around fighting daemons never
Shit hurts. Instead we'll probably just get DLC of Luna doing nothing but being bland.

They butchered the NA translation. He actually says he loves them.
>>162939618
>>162939622
The game gives you too many items without buying them. It's not the items fault but the fact that the game gives you TWO chances that last forever to save yourself. Even without items your friends constantly save you. I don't think that's cheesing. Cheesing is like being somewhere a boss can't touch you and killing him.
>>162939619
>>Luna getting shanked
This would have weight if we were ever made to feel attached to Luna, and feel that Luna and Noct were connected beyond exchanging messages in a notebook because they've not met each other for years and are only being wed as part of a peace treaty.
>>162939634
Like Stella :^)
>>162939637
Either way, I find the combat in this game hugely overrated, it's kinda fun but the AI isn't worth a tin of beans where it really counts and the game apes action games so closely in the combat that I can just play Bayonetta if I wanted to and get a better experience, the rest of FFXV outside the combat is straight up padding so it's not like you're getting a great game with the combat.

Prompto:
Up Close and Personal - Pullmoor Haven - southwest of Coernix Station Alstor

Kingsglaive was her chance to shine, but Square turned her into object of escort mission for Nyxdesu, they handled Luna`s brother even worse.Nyx was descent character. But it would be cool if Luna escaped Insomnia alone. With ring, oracle powers and may be some help of Ravus.
How much better/different would the game be if Iris was the main girl? Everything that happens to Luna happens to Iris and Luna becomes the ignored girl?

I don't like how tapping the attack button feels. The animations were made to just flow into each other by holding down the button. When you press attack, it feels more like pressing play. Attacks aren't snappy enough and don't come out immediately as I press the button so there isn't enough indication when a move starts or ends. I can't time my attacks, there's no need either. I can't even precisely aim my attacks because of auto targeting.

I don't think you understand. You're constantly locked on to only the points allowed to you by the game. Let's say you have an enemy with two lock on points on its side. You can't choose to aim between them. Noctis will attack one or the other. You can hit that spot if you position yourself just right but that's not what Noctis is aiming for and will move closer to what he actually wants to hit.

>the game apes action games so closely in the combat that I can just play Bayonetta if I wanted to and get a better experience
It actually doesn't, and I'm pretty sure the confusion is why people don't like this game's combat. XV's combat is far more reactive than combo based like DMC style games. What I mean by that is that you do much better moving in and out of combat by warping, parrying, building up your tech meter or whatever it's called, and using magic than trying to get in as many hits as possible, doing animation cancels, and dodging. Also the fact that you can't dodge out of an attack animation, and you can't really stun enemies with constant attacking, while also being knocked down by one hit makes this game feel very different from typical action games. This is why I think people have problems with the combat, because it's far too sluggish to treat it like a DMC game, especially given that you normally fight large swarms of enemies, where the best tactic then is to hold down square rather than circle, do a dodge and then attack, since the attack out of dodge normal knocks away groups of enemies. That's what I mean by the combat being more reactive than proactive.

There's literally no narrative or emotional payoff though, and Noctis reacts to the news like he reacts to all heart rending news in this game but being shocked or angry and then calmly moves on 10 seconds later.
>>162939716
Use the great sword or polearm.
>>162939718
I worked on the game.
I still need to know who was Izunia.
The english dub seems to have it implied that it was someone Noctis knows, while the japanese audio really was asking "i wonder who Izunia is".
What's the truth?
>>162939719
I guess you had to be there.
>>162939661
fuck, me too. they should have had it fixed and waiting at hammerhead in the ruin world

>>162939695
>Listening to a marketing poll
>>162939695
well deserved
>>162939722
I thought he was referring to noctis as being Izunia, since ardyn is the true calum.
>>162939719
Also, everyone's just like "Hey buddy, it's been 10 years, good to see you again!" Really? After 10 years that's all you have to say? 10 fucking years? Hell even 1 year apart should warrant more of a discussion.
>>162939729
man if only the world of darkness was Part 2 of the open world, and you had to go around exploring the vaults BEFORE going to ardyn
it would've made so much sense and caught up to so many characters
>>162939708
But you can't target what the game doesn't allow you to which is the space between target points.
For example, and forgive me if I'm wrong because I haven't fought one in a while, those long necked giraffe things have a target point on their head and on the body. How can I choose to attack the neck? I can warp to the head, fall, and start attacking I guess but then Noctis will automatically warp mid combo to what the game wants me to attack. Which is the head or body.
>>162939725
It would help if Noctis actually auto attacked in the air if an enemy is taller than you. As it stands now he does one combo then drops back to the ground and starts swinging at the air by it's feet.
>>162939465
>Hey there pretty boy
I knew she was the best girl the instant I heard that line.
>>162939728
For s split second it made me wonder if Izunia was the maiden name of Noctis' mother.
It's another "You'll eventually know in a DLC" I guess.
I actually hope we get to know it.
>>162939729
I think the biggest non-change I'm most disappointed by is Prompto, he's still a fucking puppy, imavine if he manned up and actually got together with Cindy and they were both present at Hammerhead 10 years later, it would actually feel like life had moved on or something.
>>162939722
The line "i wonder who Izunia is" is in the eng dub too.
Ardyn is the ancient king who healed his people by taking shit ton of demon's in himself and saving his people, but the gods refused to give him the afterlife he longed for due to being full of demons. So he became immortal and was seeking someone that was capable of killing him.
At least that's what I got out of it.

Im pretty sure hes referring to the fact that his right to be king was overthrown by the izunia family, so my guess would be noctis is part izunia/calum.

>>162939720
Not good enough. I main those dude. They don't reach far enough horizontally side to side. The best melee crowd control option is the spin2win move the greatsword has. You can't just do it though like you could in Platinum demo. In platinum demo it was hold back+attack and was spammable. Now you need to delay your attack and by then the assassins I'm fighting have already fucked me up.

The joke here is that the English version has indisputably worse voice sync, and the writing quality is miles worse - though if you don't speak Jap you will have to deal with the latter regardless.
HOLY fuck those Tonberries down in the super dungeons are a nightmare, when you have to fight 4-5 of them for Balmung they rip your ass a new one legit.. I spent so much shit on those.

Not really. She's got a roughness to her voice that perfectly suits the battle hardened type of character she's voice acting. It just feels off to you because you already played it in JP and hearing other dubs wont feel right.
>How? It's infinitely less stilted and poorly delivered than the English one.
Because the English subs aren't a translation of the JP dub, they're just subs for the localized English dub, so there's a jarring gap between what they're saying and what I'm reading. There's good and bad parts of it anyway, and I have no doubt in my mind that the same applies to the JP dub.

Oh come the fuck on. This argument is awful. Don't just assume someone is close minded and unable to listen to something objectively. Her voice isn't just worse because of the voice I heard first, it's worse because it's worse.
>>162939767
I'm not really asking for advice on how to defeat them. I'm just saying that this is something that's should be fixed. If I'm not holding R1 to lock on, why does the game then hold it for me? Auto targeting needs to be removed.

It's because you people who swear by JP dubs for everything ever always make sweeping statements that ALL the English VAs are shit by comparison. I just can't take you seriously and assume for your own sake that you only like it more because that's what you're used to. You can stop bringing Cindy up as well, I have no disagreements about her being shit, but that is irrelevant and has nothing to do with Aranea's voice which there is nothing wrong with at all.
I used to swear by JP dubs myself when I was weeb fag who watched anime every day but after leaving those days behind I've noticed how JP dubs are often very overdramatic and just speak in completely unrealistic ways and I find that just as bothersome stiff English voice acting.

We don't know and he deliberately left it teasing. Izunia could have been someone important to him that he wants to remember, or someone he hated and conquered, or anything else besides.
>>162941206
So did those blows kill him or what? It was pretty grim either way.

[Christmas Hoe has joined the server]
And so it begins
>>162941397
Technically, they just left him near-death. It was unleashing the Providence that killed him.
Why don't they make the whole second half like chapter 10? I think it was amazing chapter.
Is that really was that hard to make atleast explorable dungeon in Tenebrae?
>>162941505
No thanks.
I want Luna's journey DLC

Disgusting. Gimme Aranea and older Iris daemon hunting adventures DLC.
>>162941505
They made that already, it's a pre-order bonus from fucking Gamestop.
>>162941687
Who is token black guy?
>>162941545
IIRC isn't Regis looking away as his Son gets completely wrecked?
See, I'm confused now, that seems like a really odd way to do a pact, I thought they killed him because they knew he'd go to the afterlife where he could kill Ardyn for good but if not it just makes them beating the shit out of Noct seems needlessly cruel.

Best black guy in the game. He's a bro and he meets with Hilary Clinton. It'selder Obama.
>>162941604
I double that. Luna point of view is a must for this game. Ravus Luna Gentiana and Umbra party, holy fuck.
I swear abusing the i-frames you get when you use a tech is the only way to stop your dumbass party members from killing themselves. The Ravus fight went from fucking stupid shit having to rescue every two seconds to trivial when I started using a one bar tech whenever he did his faggy explosion AOE or that one vergil attack where the cuts the air

OH WOW I'M SURE I GLAD I WENT OUT OF MY WAY TO GET THIS RED DROP THAT TURNED OUT TO BE A MEGA ELIXIER

XV sidequests weren't good. Game could've used 12 more months in development to fix more than sidequests.
>>162942186
90% of Danbooru's stuff is handpicked from Pixiv. Pixiv is the source, naturally it is filled with shit, but if you know how to look you can find some great artists there.
>>162942640
>Ravus working for Empire 24/7
Why does he suddenly start to like Noctis entirely off screen again?
>>162942747
The red drops show up on the maps though, it's the same as any Ubishit paint by numbers open world with a checklist.
>>162942336
>who Japan's favorite girl is?Prompto
Luna for qts and Cidney for lewds.Cidney is popular towards patreonfags, who just need some fresh vidya tits for attention.
>>162942869
He never held a grudge against Noctis, it was Regis he hated. He just thought Noct was too weak to actually fulfill the prophecy.
>>162942869
He is tsundere.
>>162942836
what do you mean anon, i for one loved hunting for rocks for dino, he was such a great character
>>162942886
I know and there's no reason to hunt for any of them ever is what I'm saying, or the Mineral Deposits, there's no reason to ''''explore'''' this open world period, because SE don't understand what makes the genre good they just saw the superficial elementso f W3 and copied it.
>>162942489
Someone should actually make a video of this, it's fucking shocking how bad XV is at those things.
>>162943170
not at all
it was expected
>>162943041
Actually the red drops can sometimes be decent weapons or accessories so you don't have to buy them. Mineral deposits get you more colors for the Regalia.
>>162943278
But FF has always had at least decent sidequests amongst the bad, even FFXIV, an actual MMO has better sidequesting than FFXV.
I don't ever recall before in a FF game, doing a 'Find X amount of Y' and then going back to be given a quest that is fucking identical except for the place or the maount of X, literally 2 or 3 times in a fucking row.
All we get from Dino is that he's planning to use the rocks you found for him to do some good or something, it's like 5 lines or so, before that is him saying 'Hey Prince, do this or I blab' and Noct doing it for no reason every time.
Most of the quests are Noct doing them just because, and quests that should develop characters like Cindy, don't give us fucking shit.
>>162942489
Less hunts in XV and making them all as cool as Deadeye's hunt would have probably made them even better than XII's hunts, let alone Witcher 3's.
>>162941746
>IIRC isn't Regis looking away as his Son gets completely wrecked?
He doesn't want to kill his son, and granting him the power to use Providence would kill him for certain. Regis' last blow is what would enable him to do so.
>that seems like a really odd way to do a pact
It's magic, son.
> I thought they killed him because they knew he'd go to the afterlife where he could kill Ardyn for good
That was indeed one part of it. The Accursed waits on the boundary of life and death, not the afterlife. So Noctis had to go there as well.
It was only after blowing away Ardyn/the Darkness with the Providence that both of them die.
>>162944428
>That was indeed one part of it. The Accursed waits on the boundary of life and death, not the afterlife. So Noctis had to go there as well.

I think I understand now, the past king of Regis are such a bunch of cunts though, I just remembered how bad they were in Kingsglaive

i...is that a buldge ?
Would Iris be a good mother? Would Iris be a good Queen?
>>162945768
No but she would be a decent concubine
>>162945768
She looks drunk in that picture. Probably ready for the fuckening. I think it's sad that Noct only sees her as a little sister instead of a woman.
>>162945768
Would she be Nocts second concubine? After Gen of course.
I want to create a succession crisis with Cindy!
>>162947473
Would Cid be mad if Noct wanted to plant his royal seed into Cidney/Cindey?
>>162947473
Is she even considered a character?
Who were these guys?
>blue-balled for 12 years
>died as virgin
Being Noctis is suffering,
>>162947676
Left to right: Aldercapt, Regis, Luna and Nyx. I thought it was pretty hardcore that Ardyn actually went through the trouble of fishing Luna's corpse out of the ocean, then it turned out to be an illusion.
>>162947676
Ardyn's trophy kills (although he only killed one personally): The Emperor, King Regis, Luna, Nyx
>>162947586
He'd certainly be proud. Him and Regis were super close anyway so.
>>162947676
Is that Stella? Fucking Tabata mocking us
>>162947960
They weren't real, just something to fake out Noctis and he knew it so he just ignored it.
>>162948087
Shit, that'd be fucking ballsy of him to say the least. Just spit on everyone who'd been waiting since '06 for this game.Not that he didn't do that already.
How much of Altissia did Leviathan fuck up?
This is like the first time in the entire series that Leviathan has been treated the way he should be, though it's a she in this.
>>162947975
But how would Nocts bros react? Would Cidney even be okay with it considering it might take her from her job for a time?
>>162948375
Lucis line of kings must continue, she'd only be alright with it because of that. Otherwise she'd have said no. Too bad Noctis was an imbecile and let the line die with him, like a true virgin.
>>162948363
She was contained to that big circular area at the top right pretty much. Probably fucked up some surrounding area with the tidal wall and maelstrom though.
>>162948302
I am so glad I completely fucking ignored Versus XIII and didn't even get marginally hyped because that would have been such a painful wait.
>>162948835
I see, because all I remember is laughing when Hilary Clinton said she's prepared for 'some' structural damage and then I do the fight and I see fucking houses riding the massive fucking typhoon
>>162948292
I didn't say they were real. I meant he was presenting them as trophy kills.
>>162948884
Same, I didn't even know what V13 was before September when I came into XV threads and heard people complaining about it. But by god do I agree with them.
>>162947473
>Iris is just good for cheap lewd art
I'm very saddened by this.
At least Luna and Iris get the cute.
Gentiana and Aranea get the classy lewd (from what I've seen).
>>162949296
You implied they were so next time just make yourself clear. Idiot.
>>162949537
Not him but you must be a friendless basement troll to be this rude over trivial shits.
>>162949529
Isn't 'classy lewd' an oxymoron?
>>162950157
No it's the step up from lewd which is a step up from cheap lewd.
Classy Person>person>cheap person.
>>162950157
Let's say sexy without being vulgar and looking like a 20$ whore
>>162946396
>>162946276
>>162946137
No, Iris would be the only wife to Noctis. Gladio can be the uncle to the kid
>>162950673
Can Iris handle the royal power of Noctis combined with the might of his ancestors alone?
>>162950802
Iris has been training since her young girl years to be the perfect mother and wife to Noctis's seed.
>>162939807
Cute. Ghost porn when?
>>162952995
Never because Noctis is alive and impregnating Iris
>>162939455
Just got the game today and it cuts off maybe 5mm off each side of the screen. I tried changing TV and ps4 screen settings but no change. Is this a common problem for most people or am I missing something? Thanks
Why is the endgame for this so terrible? A little variation would have been nice, not 8 or so fucking '''''dungeons''''' of nothing but fighting the same enemies all over again.
Also, every single superboss in this game is irredeemably bad.
>>162939550

>>162939551
Fagiyama made his waifu so ridiculously overpowered that it doesn't particularly matter.
The more I think about it though, the angrier I get. Why did XIII have to exist?
>>162955114
>Fagiyama made his waifu so ridiculously overpowered that it doesn't particularly matter.
Why does it matter? XIII is a self contained universe?
>>162955337
>Why does it matter?
Because I'm replying to a post that specifically asked where each FF protagonist should be ranked in terms of strength? Whether it's a self-contained universe is besides the point.
>>162955647
Yeah but it's not Toriyama's fault, he didn't design Lightning with series wide tier lists in mind
>>162955763
Why are you defending Toriyama? Doesn't matter what he had in mind, his conception of Lightning and indeed the entire universe he created was shit.
>>162943041
>i for one loved hunting for rocks for dino, he was such a great character
I couldn't help but read that in his voice.

I just died and couldn't use a phoenix down then game over'd. How does this work

The worst part is I still see aspects of Lightning in Luna. Just make Iris the main girl and everything is daijobu
>>162939456
Just got the game and I'm wondering if I should play with the japanese of english dub. Which one is better?
>>162969759
Japanese language. English dub isn't terrible and gets the message across, but it is pretty hard to listen to the voice actors try too hard sometimes.
>>162970120
I was leaning towards the dub but wasn't too sure. Thanks bro
Just finished the game. I can finally come here without fear of being spoiled.
>>162939501
Squeenix actually said they plan on allowing guest character be part of your party, and possibly let you create a custom avatar member.
Anyone else ever manage to get a non Ramuh summon? Every time I summoned one of the gods, it was always Ramuh.
>>162939567
Many weaker mobs usually are stronger than one strong one. Especially if their lives are less than a difference of 10.
The giraffes are shit and will die to anything. So bet big against them.
Don't bet big when the odds aren't high. Not worth risking a lot of money for little payout.
Once you observe what's strong against what, you can make coin quickly.
I got about 500k coins starting with a thousand in one day.
I got kinda hooked on it. I probably have a gambling problem.

i just finished "batling" the titan holding metor does this gam get better or?
>The Survival Skill levels up with the number of steps that you take during your travels. Gladiolus will obtain SP based on the difference between two counters: the “Current Step Total” and “Step Total at Previous Rest”.
So I can rest, run 2 steps, rest again and it will then go from 2 steps as previous or will it ignore that?
>>162996974
Kind of. That wasn't supposed to be hard.
>>162939702
Because something like 50% of the intended content didn't make the cut and it shows.
For example if you get the flying car and fly over the facility in the Causcherry Plains you can see assists for an unused imperial base mission.
There's also the incredible detailed maps in altissa and the imperium that imply they were to be open world at some point, in fact someone has already glitches their way to incredibley detailed parts of altissa that weren't accessible in game.
In fact if you look close enough you can find an insane amount of places like this in the game.
I'm willing to bet the world of ruin was originally playable as well.
I'm honestly really curious to see what this game could have been like if they gave it like 1-1.5 more years.
>>162976212
It's dependent on a few different things. Shiva is the rarest of the four. Titian will only come out in large open areas. And leviathan will only come out near bodies of water.
I've gotten leviathan twice and shiva once (sadly during the turtle fight where Titian has a unique animation) and ramuh all other times.
>missed the ring tutorials
>all I can do is that stupid block and slow fucking death magic
Fucking hell. I just want to know how to use this weak-ass ring.
>>163010015
The only move you missed is the AOE death spell that you can only use with full MP.
It's a bit more random on when it will work, it eats your entire MP bar, and has a bit of slow startupbut it does look fucking awesome when it goes off.
>>163007010
>willing to spend 10 years on game
>still cuts content to push the release date
??????
Why do they do this
>>163010420
I've seen someone use it and it looks cool as hell. What button do I need to press for it to work?
>>163011259
It should bring up the prompt whenever you have a full MP bar but it's something like R1+Triangle.
Is there anything besides hunts to actually do in Altissia?
>>163010773
I was talking to a buddy at square enix and he said the rumor was that this actually final product of the game was only started in the past few years.
When announced the game was planned to go in a vastly different direction. Key differences would have been the relationship between nocturne and Luna (named Stella at this point), the games engine, and of course having be set in The FF13 universe.
Square also gave the team next to nothing to work with in terms of a budget or reasources.
The fact that they let Tabata a man who was previously a mobile exclusive guy (Crisis Core and Type-0) take the lead from one of their big shots showed how little they cared. They expected this game to bomb from the get go I think.
