FFXV's New Survey Asks For Story Content Suggestion (World of Ruin, Luna, Cor, Ardyn)

Almost picked Ardyn's Past I guess because he's almost the only genuinely interesting character in the story but he features prominently enough so I went with World of Ruin.
 
Ugghh... I want all of this.

I guess I'd rank it...

1. Luna's activities
2. Ardyn's past
3. Playable Luna
4. Playable Aranea
5. World of Ruin

But really any of that top 3 is interchangeable to me.
 
Where is the option to remove Luna from the story?
I'm not kidding.

This is a bit of pain though. Couldn't they just make an online survey. I barley have any space left on my PS4, so reinstalling XV will be a very difficult challenge. I guess now I have to finish Doom before the end of June.

Anyway, the World of Ruin it is.

Press release pretty much confirms that Ep Prompto won't be out till end of June (assuming there's the usual patch that comes with new DLC)

A patch accomplished Episode Gladio however. DLC is different than these as it's paid content and these are free updates (for now)

I think there was enough extra Cor content in Episode Gladiolus that there doesn't really need to be anymore extra stuff showing what he's up to. The rest of that though, yes please

Yeah, but patches include making the game compatible with the downloadable DLC. The next patch isn't out until the end of June, hence it's most likely that Episode Prompto won't release until the end of June either.
 
I was so disappointed when they didn't let you lose into the World of Ruin. I just wanted to run around as bearded Noct and fuck shit up. So, I hope they do something with that setting.

The story in the game is garbage enough as it is, I don't really need them to band-aid more stuff into it.

If they added all the content in this survey eventually... FFXV would probably climb the rankings of my favourite FF games.

Based on what we saw at Galdin Quay, the World of Ruin would just be a big dark overworld with a bunch of overpowered demons running around and nothing else. The only point of interest would be going to Lestallum and talking to some of the characters there, which would be neat but not particularly important.

I'll probably end up voting for Ardyn's past. I thought about Luna but I think it would take more than adding some extra scenes showing what she's up to to salvage her character

Playable World of Ruin (while it should have been in the shipped game) would probably constitute an expansion. That would add quite a bit of playtime to the game (to do it right).
 
When I hear World of Ruin I think FF6... but there's no way it's going to be nearly as interesting. It's going to be the normal world with a dark sky. The result is going to be far more disappointing than the concept.

That leaves...
 
I have yet to play this game. I'm holding off until they release a Definitive Edition with all the content on disc.

They fucking better.

True, but I'm guessing they could also craft some new, uber high-level monsters to fight there. I think that would be cool. Maybe a few new designs.
 
Man in 5 years people are gonna play ffxv and it's gonna be a radically different game then the game most of us loved day one.

Give me all the new content square enix!
 
This game desperately needs both Luna and Ardyn to be more fleshed out.

Personally though I'd love for more in the World of Ruin.

Eek, my phone totally ruined that. I meant to say a patch accompanied the DLC. Given how late Episode Gladio released in March, I'm not expecting the DLC until the end of June as well.

Having to choose one is hard as hell. I guess I'd go with Ardyn's past. I believe they could fit it with the current structure without changing much.
Have Noctis and a human version of Bahamut witnessing the key moments of Ardyn's life in a dream thing while he's in the crystal.

I really hope they make a challenging Hard Mode for the inevitable Complete Edition.

I loved the World of Ruin nod to VI, would really love to see it fleshed out.

I feel like I'm in the GAF minority - I really enjoyed my time with FFXV.
I did lose a bunch of progress in the post-game when I flew, then promptly crashed my airship (wtf) and put it down.

Looking forward to playing this again when they're, uh, done making it haha.

I ended up requesting more Luna material since I'm pretty sure the Ardyn stuff will happen no matter what and figured she was the weakest/underwritten link in the story and deserved better.

I could do with her being a better character but World of Ruin will probably be shit if they try it.

Talking about FFXV updates, the escort mobile game thing got a new CGi cutscene! Now it has as many cutscenes as the console game!

0 interest in more playable. Hell yes to all that additional story content.

I took a week off work on release day, and plowed through this game in 3 days. I'm looking forward to replaying it next year to see how much it has been tweaked and improved.

It seems like they understand every one of those things is something the game should have shipped with, so I don't understand why they need this feedback. They should all already be in some state of development.

But yes, an explanation of the antagonist would probably be the most "duh" choice, so I'll go for that.

Also, it needs to be integrated into the main game, not as a menu option you pick from the main menu or something you choose instead of something else, like the weak chapter 13 addition.
