Do have the same question. It's going on now, right?

PAX West next week and TGS shortly after that. Nothing to give up on.
There is no indication from any of the developers that anything else of note is coming and just hoping from trade show to trade show something is going to drop seems like a waste of energy tbf.
No survey results were a big blow and a bad sign.

Not sure if this was known, but Tabata confirmed that Comrades is this autumn.

Guys, made a thread about what QoL/UI/balancing improvements you would want to see in mods for the PC version and it would be cool to see your feedback! Could be nice to have it all in one place.

Libertus should (and better) be there. They never resolved that whole arc.

I think the outfit is tomorrow and the ac festival is Thursday .
Let's see if it'll end up good
Tomorrow probably the pre-DLC patch to preload the assets, the AssCreed costume for Noctis for those who have the Dream Egg you can get through the Chocobo Carnival event and also the regular updates stuff (Bestiary and Chapter Select).
The actual AC DLC comes on Thursday.
Was just about to ask this here after checking out right now. Wtf? This is the exact opposite of what we've known before.
I thought the current theory was that
the Starscourge was created when Eos' corpse was burned. The virus seems too potent to be created by an Astral.
Wait a minute, I just realized the German description is different than the English one. I assumed it was the same, that's why I responded to you, but the
Starscourge isn't mentioned and there's something else about his being infected with the daemon parasite ("Siecher-Parasiten").
German Transcription:
"Ifrit:
Der Gott des Feuers. Einst wachte er als Teil der göttlichen Sechs über Eos. Er liebte die Menschen und schürte ihren Wissensdurst. Auf diese Weise verhalf er der Zivilisation Solheims zu großer Blüte. Doch trunken von ihrer Macht wandten sich die Menschen gegen die Götter. Im darauf entflammenden Astralkrieg wurde Ifrit bezwungen und wurde später mit dem Siecher-Parasiten infiziert. Nicht nur äußerlich, sondern innerlich ist er seither von der Dunkelheit zerfressen."

English Translation:
"Ifrit:
The God of Fire. He once watched over Eos as part of the godly Six. He loved humans and stoked their thirst for curiosity. This way he helped Solheim's civilization to great bloom. But intoxicated with their power people turned their backs on the gods. In the Astral War which followed, Ifrit was conquered and later infected with the Daemon parasite. Ever since he has been devoured by the darkness not only on the outside but on the inside."

I don't get it anymore oO
^ Holy shit, that's completely different and infinitely more interesting.
Why are these localizations so different, anyway??
Sounds like technically he did create it, but only because he corrupted those people with power and... it was born from them instead? Maybe...?
Isn't that just some crazy theory from gazing at the randomly placed statues in Pitioss? I can't prove it, but I'm almost certain that place has no real thought out lore behind it and they just threw a bunch of stuff together.
But I thought it came from the meteor that Ifrit summoned and that Titan was literally holding off? That's what the German lore says.
What? Was this in the English version at all???
FFXV is now officially a choose your own adventure game. Tabata!!!
It's not that different to be honest.
He's clearly Prometheus and you don't give fire to people unless you care for them. The clarification we seem to be getting here is that he was thoroughly corrupted by the Starscourge and revived by it. Which actually makes more sense as to why Ardyn was able to summon him.
Edit: you are right in that the English version does not mention he was consumed by the Starscourge and implying only that he has become like a demon thanks to it. That's an important point but largely irrelevant until we get a clear view of what happened with Ardyn and the Astral War.
As for the meteor, I still think that's where it came from too. If it was Astral created, Bahamut should have been able to handle it instead of creating the Line of Lucis.

If we follow the Pitoss theory, this new information does make some sense
BTW the Meteor theory can work if we postulate that the Starscourge
Ifrit, betrayed by humans, is exiled and searches for Eos. She dies, he burns her corpse, and the Starscourge from her corpse enters Ifrit and corrupts him. Now mad, Ifrit wages war against his former kingdom and on the Astrals for Eos' death. He spreads the Scourge all over Solheim until he's killed by Bahamut. Ardyn then is tasked to begin absorbing the Scourge. During his journey, Ardyn takes part of the corrupted Ifrit into himself, allowing for Ardyn to summon the dark version we face in Chapter 14.
BTW the Meteor theory can work if we postulate that the Starscourge
came to the planet upon it and infected the goddess Eos, forcing her supposed imprisonment as a quarantine. Ifrit 'freeing' her corpse by burning it unfortunately allowed the virus to escape.
Nope, iirc this
meteor stuff was never mentioned by Ardyn
Hmm, okay.
Where does this whole
Ifrit loves Eos stuff comes from in all these crazy Pitioss theories, btw? In the German bestiary entry for Shiva it says she was Ifrit's lover until the succumbed to madness.

It's all from the Pitoss theory alas. I agree it's slll conjecture at this point but it's been hinted by the developers to be possibly true. Still, I feel though we are getting close to everything finally falling into place!
Well yeah, they would never shoot down fan theories like that, it keeps people interested. Otherwise, you'd just be antagonizing them.
That said, the bestiary ruins it completely, I think.
Apparently there are about 1 creature per page in the new Bestiary that I've never seen and/or beaten. Is there a complete list somewhere so I can check which "?" the game means (one is probably that stupid angelus mech)?
Also, those new magitek suits, can I use those to sort of breeze through that special end game cave where you can't heal properly? I think I have most of the required skills for healing, but still, it'd be nice to get it over with smoother.

Yeah, I guess you could use those, but honestly those dungeons were easy peasy with a camp site every few rooms. If not, you could just make tons of healing spells by mixing even just 1 point of any element plus a few Potions or Hi-Potions. I think the accessories and AP nodes where your party members automatically use heal items on you should work too in that one dungeon, not sure though.
Thanks, yeah that's a good idea, but won't you need like a 1000 spells? :lol I feel like I'm dropping in health super rapidly regardless of who I fight, even though I'm at lvl 104. Almost every battle is a battle of attrition in regards to potions and elixirs, especially in those special caves (Costlemark is the only one left). AFAIK, the healing skills should work from what I've read before. I'll check it out tomorrow maybe. I assume that if you die completely, you get a free pass out of the dungeon even if you've saved at a camp? The other ones were too easy so I never found out :lol
Max out your hp with accessories, eat before entering the dungeon to protect you from every element possible (there was a specific dish that everyone suggests for this dungeon, I forget the name) and save the suits for one particular room
.
that consists of three or four Iron Giants
Thanks, good advice.
