Seems to suffer a little from DA2's 'look here's more enemies we're throwing at you'... I can do some mission in peace because of this, I don't have a problem with fighting with enemies but they spam so quickly, and they also spam them when I'm already fighting with others, is kinda of shitty.

Was not a fan of XIII. Too feminine with the advertisement and when I did try my hand at the game, I liked the gameplay but hated the characters, the world, and the direction. It felt so basic. Didn't care to even try the sequel(s). As for FFXV, I was sold from last year's E3 trailer alone. I love the character design, the world, the setting, the plot and hope to see moar. Kingsglaive got the hype train into overdrive and I hope they make it more relevant to the game with future content. This game has owned my life this past few days. Can't get enough.

I bought XV earlier but am still downloading it. I've played FF8's demo, but that's about it, so this is actually my first full Final Fantasy game. Tbh more than anything I just want Squeenix to get to work on Kingdom Hearts 3 now that XV is done, but I am looking forward to playing XV.

Seems to suffer a little from DA2's 'look here's more enemies we're throwing at you'... I'm not playing the game, watching it on Twitch as I'm curious about FF. Definitely not my cup of tea; gameplay just seemed ... mindless and repetitive. Didn't take to any of the chars. That's imo. *shrug*

About 9 hours in on XV, and I like it so far. My biggest complaint is sometimes you can be roaming in the wilderness, and you trigger combat with some wildlife or something, and right after you kill off the animals, a Dropshot full of magitek soldiers will spawn and drop the soldiers on you to fight. This itself isn't a bad thing, but it's happened several times over a short period, and it's kind of annoying now especially since the soldiers are no threat to me unless they greatly outnumber the party. I must say, I'm actually interested in the lore and story of this game so far, I think it's pretty cool with the modern 2016-era technology mixed with the usual Final Fantasy magic and supernatural elements.

Watch Kingsglaive for more context on magitek and the empire in general. Also you learn what exactly happens in Insomnia while Noctis and company are heading off. I also think it's Square's best Final Fantasy movie... though that's not saying a whole lot.

I also think it's Square's best Final Fantasy movie... though that's not saying a whole lot. I haven't yet seen the movie (it does look at least decent though), but I did spend a lot of time on FFXV's various TVTropes pages, so I'm at least a little bit familiar with what goes on. The only FF movie I've seen thus far is Advent Children, for FFVII. It wasn't terrible, but the pacing was really weird and Cloud is too much of an edgy teenager (I know he's stereotyped as one, but he doesn't really act that much like one in FFVII itself), and Sephiroth has far too little screen time. Speaking of FFVII, I'm looking forward to the remastered version of that game, and I hope that Cloud, Sephiroth, and the rest of the FFVII cast return in Kingdom Hearts 3. Cloud was a one-off boss fight in the first game and Sephiroth was a super hard optional fight, but the second game actually gave them a bit of a story to work with and introduced Tifa to the KH series, but that subplot ended on a bit of a non-sequitur cliffhanger. The Sephiroth boss fight is awesome though.

Haven't had a chance to watch the Clueless Gamer yet. We've got a new baby so my gaming time is limited, I just started Chapter 4 I'm about 12 hours in and so far? I LURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRVE IT. I kind of wonder how much context and perspective Kingsglaive gives to it, as I watched it just before I started the game and I feel like I would be pretty confused without it.
However, the game is breathtaking, innovative and unlike anything else I've ever played, including other Final Fantasy titles. It is nothing if not unique. The sidequests are definitely of the whatever variety but the amount of loving detail put into everything makes wandering around collecting stuff quite fun.
And I really can't say enough about the friendship at the core of the story. Just awesome. I love that Noctis is, like... scene, af. With XIII I started to wonder if I'd aged out of the FF demographic; now I KNOW I have but I can appreciate it instead of being put off by it.
It's a huge game and there's a lot to say about it but I'll stop here for now. So, sooooo good.

Just driving around completing mindless tasks is relaxing. It's a bit 'Hinterlands' with a car, but that's fine.

A car makes the Hinterlands just better. The Hinterlands is also far better than being forced to spend the entire game on rails, going along an endless, narrow corridor... (Looking at you, FFXIII)

I've never really played much of FF games before--I remember getting a couple of hours into 7 and playing a demo of 10, but I'm definitely considering taking 15 out for a spin after the holidays. I'll need something to pass the time until MEA comes out...

The ending destroyed me. I am depressed but also feel like my life has a meaning. And that meaning is waiting for the DLC to come out, also FFXV-2 please. Don't leave me hanging Tabata, you sick freak.

Traded it in. Didn't even bother completing it. The build up over those last chapters was horseshit. I doubt they spent 10 years on this game. I've seen games built over a year that are better than this game.

A car that can run out of gas halfway down a long long road. ... one of the streamers was bitching about it; fixed speed (it's the DAI horse all over again ), can't drive off the road, no jeep to go cross country.

Rather foolish to run out of gas in this game, as there are plenty of opportunites to fill up and you are warned when low . And off-road is not for cars...
