Final Fantasy XV |OT2| For Jared!

I stumbled upon the Fat Chocobo recipe for 50%+ experience and now I'm playing the "how much XP can I bank at the hotel" game. The story missions can wait.

Just wondering, why are you calling this a great final fantasy if it is the only one you have completed?

Mind you I am on Chapter 5, and this (outside of the two mmos) is the first one I honestly am not sure if I will bother completing. Does it get better? I want to love this game...
Just because I haven't completed other games in the series doesn't mean this one can't be great. I've played everything from Final Fantasy V to XV, including XIV, and I got to the last boss of Crisis Core. I've been playing plenty of Final Fantasy through the years, and XV was great.

I'm an idiot and don't know how to do that. Is it an item? A button prompt?
I got the exact same question right now. Umbra isn't on the list when I press R2 and scroll to the sides.
 
In case anyone on PS4 can't sprint with their chocobo and manually driving with Noctis feels like he's stuck in second gear, it seems like the cause might be the controller you're using. Something to do with R2 not sending a full signal. I switched to my newer controller and finally I could run with my chocobo again.

Assuming the original Izunia and Ardyn weren't related, then Regis wouldn't have been part of the (original) bloodline either. After Ardyn was ostracised, the gods accepted the usurper as the legitimate heir (who also took on the Lucis Caelum name), which eventually led to Noctis and Regis thousands of years later.

The WHOLE current Lucis Caelum line is actually the Izunia line.

Ardyn is the true ancestor to the Lucis Caelum line. The Izunias took the name for themselves after Ardyn became 'corrupted'.
So confusing. Who did the
Izunia's
consist of? Do we know their family tree?

I don't understand this. I gave Cid a glass gemstone to upgrade my engine blade before I beat the game. But now it's like he never received it. So doesn't it work if I beat the game while he was working on the upgrade?
 
Spoiler free because I haven't started yet, but do you guys see them continuing in this universe with a XV-2 and XV-3?

Just something I was thinking about.

They have a lot planned for DLC, maybe they'll just go that route. I gots my season pass already.

Not other than the planned DLC no.

I bought the Season Pass today as well. I'm super excited about the DLC and patches.

I can't find the Bandersnatch for gaining exp. I have ridden my chocobo all the way up to Keyentrick Ruins. Can someone tell me in which area it is staying at?

Noctis, Regis, the past kings and their ancestor who took the name are the only ones we know of so far.

It should be noted that Ardyn doesn't outright say that the current Lucis Caelum line are actually the Izunias, but it's still heavily implied. It can be assumed that Ardyn took the Izunia name for himself as a form of irony.

Oh god, I just finished chapter
9
and I'm emotionally torn. I didn't expect
Luna to die
. I just want a
happy ending
for once Tabata....

When it flashed back to the scene where
Luna considered herself to be unworthy for Noctis and how all she ever wanted is to see Noctis' smile just like how when they were kids.
At that point, I just teared up. God, it just ruined my mood for the rest of the day.

I've been playing for over 30 hours, and I was still at chapter 3, just doing side-quests.

It's not like I am sick of it, but I just want to advance the plot (Before I get massive spoiled), so I'll leave those for later. Just finished up chapter 5

oh no, not Jared

im honestly not convinced they can pull off 60fps on ps4p without some compromises in the visuals.

Which is a plus for the graphics in this game for sure!

Not a fan of the hidden door dungeons so far.


The combat, while good for a RPG, isn't satisfying or deep enough to warrant a 100 floor Bloody Palace - style dungeon.

The Costlemark Sealed Dungeon is the one where you'll rip your hair out. It's like 40 levels deep too.

Fuck I just skipped 3 days and Cid still not done with the Ultima Blade, is there any metric for how long Cid takes to upgrade weapons?

Despite the fact that
so much of her story revolves around Noctis, I really did feel bad for her during that scene. Up until that point she seemed almost too stoic in her determination, but she showed a vulnerable side there that made her feel a bit more human to me.

He's almost directly north of hammerhead in a tiny little valley

I remember seeing him at the very beginning of the game, and recently went OP so I could pay my little friend a visit. Nope, nobody there anymore - just a few straggling Voretooths. Is his appearance time based?

Do the Level 2 hunt at Hammerhead thrice, yes 3 times (might as well farm AP). Then stay at the caravan. Enjoy the Ultima.
