Chapter 3, 42 hours in

I fucking love this game. Probably fourth time playing it 100% through. I'm not even leveling up anymore (I meant to stop at 15 and was barely too high), I'm just doing all the hunts and quests for the love of the game.

Except the bear traps, my incessant need to get Gladio's Exploration skill to 10, and Pitioss. My love does not extend to you three.

But I'll do it anyway.

Anyone else prefer the japanese version?

It's the first version I played, I'm about to do a NG+ in english but I am worried it won't have the same impact :/

The Japanese VO is amazing. It's going to be weird.

Threat from the Thicket

Those killer wasps are 10 levels below me and I got my butt kicked by them. So I took to Reddit and it came down to the food. So I made some extreme food for my party. I don't remember the details but I think it was like +1000 attack and like 2000+ HP or something like that, numbers might be wrong but it was more or less the best food I could make.
I went back and I fought those wasps from morning to evening before daemons showed up (barely and like 20-30 minutes of IRL time) and I used A LOT of potions. I tried using polearms, using frost magic etc. but neither barely budged their health! I even bought a polearm nearby (though it has a bonus against daemons but it was way better than the one I previously had).
And there was so many of them....

Is this quest unbalanced like crazy or am I doing something really wrong here?

The combat system is so fun - but I never land blocks ? The game usually just makes Noctis phase out

Is the block function just super specific to timing or is there something more difficult about blocking I’m missing?

I play on PS4. The button and command to block comes up, but every time I push the button it either fails and I take damage or just phase out.

(Also I own all the DLC but I can’t access the special menu is that a glitch?)

I would love so much for Regalia to be 100% controllable throughout the entire game, just like at the beginning of Chapter 13.

I'm replaying this game, and I didn't remember that section at the beginning of Chapter 13 where you drive the Regalia and there's a timer. The game suddenly gives you 100% control over steering it, so why only then, for that one section? if you could drive the Regalia as freely from the start as you can in a game like GTA, that would be amazing

Am I the only one who thinks this? I get the feeling that a driving system like this would make the game even more enjoyable, especially since there are so many car sections in it

This is my second time playing this game, and I just found out that I don't have to unlock any perks to change characters. I can just do it right from the start of the game? What??

Is this an oversight? It only works when you press F6, F7 and F8, but the characters in the character selection menu under “B” aren’t added until after you activate the perks. Of course, we know this game had a chaotic development process, so I’m wondering if this might be an oversight related to the keyboard layout, or perhaps a change introduced by patches, where the game initially only allowed you to play as other characters after earning perks, but then a patch was released that granted this ability from the start of the game, yet they forgot to remove the perks from the character progression menu?

In any case, it's a nice discovery, especially since for most of my first playthrough I didn't even know you could play as other characters, lol. And being able to play as them from the very beginning makes the game even more enjoyable 😭

But yeah, it surprised me, and I'm curious what's going on with that. Because FFXV seems to be a game full of surprises lol

Hi, I want to say something that I've seen and found both strange and curious.

A few days ago I finished Final Fantasy XV, but something I couldn't forget was when I came across a woman in a Prompt photo who looked very much like Lara Croft from Tomb Raider. I don't know if it's some kind of Easter egg or why she appears there, but it seemed strange to me since I don't have any mods installed

Pitioss Ruins: Oh The Challenge...

Sometimes I contemplate doing the Pitioss Ruins again just for fun.

It took me good few hours to complete the first time I did it cause it is one of those places that nothing points you in the direction to go. You just go with the vibe and what you think is right....or at least what's available as you unlock things. (I was solely doing trial and error for whole thing!)

The dungeon didn't feel like the stressor as much as landing the dang car in that very small landing strip. Oh how many times I crashed...I lost count.

So...with that little ramble outta the way..

Tell Me:

• Did you complete the Ruins? Did you enjoy it? Did you scream at it? Did you cry? Did you have a favourite part? Share you Pitioss stories with me please!

So I change my mind, this game is really good.

I played at launch and thought what was there was good, but so much stuff missing made it almost a bad game. Even watching kingsglave and the anime I never really enjoyed the game like I should of. I think part of that was the promises that were made and then what we received in the final product was totally different.

So nearly a decade later a pop open FFXV, this time royal edition, and watch the movie again and anime. This time my expectations aren't plaguing my experience and I'm REALLY getting into the game. The open world is awesome, the story is intriguing, and the party members really have a great bond that's unique in video games. I'm about 25 hours in getting ready to approach the 2nd half of the game and I've done nearly every hunt, explored a huge chunk of the map, and did all side quests I could find outside fetch quests. I know there's more to discover and I'm excited to do so.

I think the main reason is I actually love Noctis as a video game character, and his friends really make the dynamic of traversing the world awesome. I know I still have to finish it and the 2nd half can be a jarring difference but honestly I didn't mind it. I liked the more narrative style structured settings after being in the open world and done all the exploring I want. Kind of weird how a second playthrough of a game you were disappointed with can be so enjoyable.

My jaw dropped when I started chapter 9

Altissia is so beautiful oh my god! Just seeing it from afar, slowly driving towards it with the boat... My jaw just dropped. I'm incredibly excited to explore this citys every nook and cranny!

Does the xbox windows version of the game have cross achievements and comrades still available?

I’m looking to 100% the Xbox version of the game but it’s impossible because of the comrades dlc’s server being shut down and turned into a standalone game.
I heard the Xbox windows edition still has the servers up and achievements carry over.
Can anyone confirm this ?
Thanks

Wish the party could use royal arms too

Im sure everyone thought this at one point, and the fact that there are 13 weapons makes so much sense, with only the Sword of the Father being Noct exclusive. It could be an end game feature like the Armiger Unleashed and not just a part of the Armiger chain. This feels so much like another cut content.
