I just beat the game this morning. The campfire scene got to me too.
A few things that puzzled me.
Why did Noctis get absorbed into the Crystal?
Gladiolus, Ignis and Prompto were at that one realm with Ardyn and Noct. They weren't dead.
Noctis and Luna got married in the afterlife?
I didn't like how you were so underpowered and had to use the Ring of Lucii just to deal with any enemy. Cheap jump scares and hiding from them just to progress in certain areas.
The Ifirit boss fight was cool. Two summons to end him and you still had to work for it. Too bad you can't summon him or Bahamut normally like the rest.
I noticed Nyx was in the throne room. I thought that was cool when I saw Kingsglaive.
Ardyn's fight was a little underwhelming. At least it was man to man. Camera went wonky when the fight goes DBZ literally. Same with Leviathan. I couldn't really see my target half the time to hit him. One of the rumors from 4chan was that Arydn's final form was cut.
I also wanted to spend more time in the World of Ruin. Like the throwback to FFVI.
The logo reveal at the end was a little surprising for me and didn't like the story due to how it ended.
Overall, I can really call those three my bros. The game is short, but I enjoyed my adventures with them. I got tired of hearing Gladiolus saying I'll taste test for you almost everytime Ignis discovered a new recipe. Just came to the realization that King Regis was talking to Bahamut in the Omen trailer.
Gonna try the Aranea glitch. It works post game right?
Yes, it works
