They've been listening to Fan feedback. So far we got the Regalia Type D, a chapter select and bestiary. Next they are allowing us to choose multiple hunts.
I remember a recent interview tabata talked about possibly including the DLC and ch 13v2 in the main game as prompts that you would load into should you have them.
The story content however that is going to be patched in will likely be added to the main game itself. They already added KG and Omen cutscenes this way. If they are planning on truely enhancing the story, they will most likely do it the normal way.

I just hope they make like a full-on 10 hours expansion starring Ardyn where they cram all the astrals and Solhiem lore alongside his backstory. I think this would be the cleanest, most efficient way to handle all the missing story content in one go.

It'll remain garbage in terms of writing since they're not going to go ARR on it but I'm hoping this stuff will at least provide some memorable/exciting stuff.

Why did they close that mobile flipper game, It added orbs and stuff to the main game.

Thanks a lot for posting the pic from the versus xiii ps3 trailer. Reminds me of a time when Noctis was mature and was ready to take revenge on niflheim rather than the baby boy he turned into in the final game.

Dunno what I expected when I entered the thread really.
Tabata and team are focusing on adding to the story and are killing themselves doing so. So, as a fan, I appreciate the effort and heart the team is putting in to give true fans what they want.

Are they charging money for the shirts? Or did they announce costumes? I can't understand Japanese so I'm lost in the ATR.

Hell yeah man this is too exciting to be honest, I never expected FFXV to be my fav/second favorite game so for them to still be supporting it in 2018 like they say man it's so awesome. People are cynical about it and it is what it is on that front, but when all this stuff is implemented, gonna be too busy playing it to care, you feel?????
I clicked this thread by accident, but I just wanted to say, you could have said this was from Deus Ex and I'd believe you. Yellow-ish tint and gold font probably helps me think of it though.
(Not sure if this was said before, I've paid zero attention to FFXV, just a random thought brought about by a misclick, heh)

Not sure, sorry for confusion, just replying about not having more clothing options in single player.

Oops my bad! Sorry for misinterpreting your post! I thought that maybe you had caught onto something that I had missed haha!
A portion of the team are prototyping a new IP for next-gen.
Yeah, I don't even want a portion of the team still working on a single player game over a year after it released. Put them all on other projects. They've supported XV a ton. I used to defend it but saying they plan on going into 2018 with story updates is ridiculously silly.

It's been 10 months since the game was released. Huge thanks from the team
Sales is pretty well
Many fans are still playing and enjoying the game,
In the trailer of Episode Ignis, you can see how the story goes in it. The last DLC (apologies that I don't quite get what the last means)
They've been mulling over is it really okay to make Episode Ignis the last DLC on FFXV.
As survey showed, fans are waiting for more stories.
Deepening the story of FFXV is what the fans want, and the dev team WILL work on it, and KEEP DELIVERING contents in 2018
they'll deliver what's been left out from the FFXV story.

I mean they didn't start talking about the free updates roadmap for the future, MP expansion, other character based DLCs after Ignis, like Luna, Ardyn and whether they will be part of this Season Pass or a newer Season Pass.
They only showed Dragon Quest gameplay so far.

What did you expect? FF16 this gen? FF games are one per gen at best.. 7r will probably be multi-gen the first part at best.

Thrown away, just like Ravus.

Nope. FF7,8,9 on PS1 gen, FFX then MMO FFXI, then FFX-2 then FFXII on PS2 gen. FF13 then FF13-2 then FF13-3 and FF14 MMO on PS3 gen that was ported to PS4 gen. We only got one FF on this gen so far. There will be the FF7 remake and we can expect another MMO FF using UE4 maybe.
NoctisVsStar

Those were different times during ps1 days that's never coming back.. MMO's imo are different beasts. Last gen all you got was FF13 and it's crappy sequels (if you want to consider it multiple FF games sure..technically anyway)
You will never see multiple mainlines ever again during a single gen.
another ff mmo will not happen this gen, it would only destroy 14 which has seen its best sales and subscribers since the arr relaunch
Dude, the FFXV stream ended 2 hours ago, lol.

You realize it already happened right? lol
This has nothing to do with XVI.

Really? I thought it didn't happen yet and that they will keep it for last, as closure. My bad.
I am really disappointed then. Almost no infos from what you quoted. I expected more clear vision for the future and not a doubtful answer whether they will do more content or not.

Based on the active time report..... I'm not entirely sure why they released the game so incomplete. I' happy for another year of content but I'm still mad I spent money on an incomplete game.
Well, that really only became the case last gen. Kind of.
But there's also two this gen anyway if you count ARR, which absolutely should be counted.
And hell, last gen had XIII-2 as well.

About missing content, I stumbled on this today by hasard: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ym2eaq_Fevg
Very disappointed. I wish they included the Duscae content or at least made Duscae available to download for everyone.
I wonder what happened to the main game vision that changed the final build so much.

Couldn't see the stream. Did they said when can we expect the patch which will include the new story scenes?

This problem is compounded even further because one game was in pre-production for nearly 6 years and put by the wayside of active development because of other projects (FFXIII sequels and FF XIV and it's conversion into A Realm Reborn for example). It's bad enough people think because that ONE game took so long to come out they assume every single future release must also take an equally ridiculous amount of time to come out,
Shifting around staff and reorganizing development teams to assist in other projects effectively putting one project entirely on halt is an exception when it comes to FF history developments, not a norm. It's quite amazing the revisionist history on some folks have in regards to FF releases and upcoming releases for future games as well when you hear exaggurated nonsense like FFXVI won't be out until 2035 or stuff like FF7r not coming out until the end of PS5 gen or whatnot.

I view FF MMO's as a revenue machine, yes they got their stories and whatnot. But I wouldn't categorize them alongside the SP ones. And yeah that overhaul 14 got is nothing short of a miracle.
That's going to be the case moving forward one mainline per gen, games take a longtime to make which is why SE is considering putting Mp aspects to their games (which sucks for us) or "games as a service"
Ps: don't forget lighting returns.
If you're asking why things changed and were cut, well, that's game development. Things change a lot all the time in many games. Just read the chapter about Uncharted 4's development after the original director's department mid-way in in Jason Schreier's new book (audio book version voiced by Noctis' VA, btw). Reminded me a lot the whole Versus/XV thing, actually.

The problem with FFXV that it took 10 years to make is the fact that it was a last-gen game first then it was decided to be a current gen title and meanwhile Luminous Engine was being developed and then reworked from scratch for current gen (shifting an engine from PS3 CELL to current gen platforms is not a granted easy task) and faced many hurdles in the process. There is no certain fact or proof that a newer FF game or new IP will meet the same fate since the Luminous Engine is already well established by now and devs are doing more tests with it using different hardwares (Agni's Philosophy multiple tests and KINGSGLAIVE running real-time etc...)
Because they knew people would buy it anyway?

Even after a huge event to announce the release date only to change it again. They should have delayed it two years. I woouldn't have even been mad if I knew how incomplete it was.

Final Fantasy XV threads always move quickly when people are upset. It's kind of mystifying but cool to be honest.
Oh well. I'm excited for more content! Especially Ardyn and Luna.

Doesn't matter how you categorize or view them.
They are full Final Fantasy titles.
Perhaps. We'll see. This gen still has a lot of time left in it.

I wonder if XVII will be another online only title.
Holy crap one day we're going to have a XVII!
