Got the Plat, still playing this game. :aah

The locked door dungeons are super boring tho, I did two and may not do any more. The first two look and play out exactly the same (straight path that occasionally branches into three paths with two dead ends, bland rock walls, fight ~15 of the same three enemies then a boss that's a high level reskinned enemy, get a weapon). It's more fun to just do high level hunts, since at least you don't have to spend an hour getting to them.

yeah i don't get how demi still does it. even though it's taken a while for me to get back into games, my time is limited and I can only manage to play 6 hours or so  a week unless it's a portable game. Me playing so much of FFXV so quickly was a miracle. But I see people like Demi still playing games like when we were teens or whatever, or Bebpo playing 40 hours of FFXIV in like 2 weeks and I just think they're complete monsters because I don't the time nor the interest to do anything like that anymore.

The game's pacing is a mess, the combat is wank, the graphics swing between gorgeous and hideous, the open world is boring, and the sidequests are shit.

In spite of all that I still enjoyed this game, mostly due to a likable cast of characters.

Ardyn is legit one of my favorite Videogame villains and top 3 FF villians. Dude's VA and him fucking with you the entire game put him up there for me. He's the reason I didn't mind chapter 13 so much(that, and how fucking easy it was you scrubs)

spoiler (click to show/hide)
i think he's pretty badass, and came off as a total sadistic asshole the further you went into the game. he was great.

my whole thing with chapter 13 was it was so visually boring. you go through a giant city that's been emptied out bc everyone turned into a demon, then you go into an airship that was as big as a city. and yet the whole time you're running through office hallways and janitor closets. BORING. there was so much more cool stuff they could have done.

Well, beat it. Chapter 13 sucked ass and honestly made me care much less about the rest of the game. Boring, too long, and just obnoxious. Got me annoyed enough that I skipped most of the cutscenes and every battle I could after it cause I just wanted the game to end at that point. Put in 84 hours and had a blast but the last two-ish really got me salty about the rest.

Didn't realize what the pic choosing at the end was for but I'm glad I made the choice I did. :doge

Just finished it. Chapter 13's stealth part was awful but otherwise the chapter was okayish I guess. Could've used more environmental variety but whatever. I think I wasn't quite paying enough attention at the end to pick up on all the story details but the ending stuff was good enough.

Surprised at how short the credits were for a game that took so long to develop. Wonder if they just cut everyone who didn't make it to the end.

Finished at level 60 with just under 60 hours played. Still got a bunch of hunts to do and some other side stuff maybe.

Overall I would say the game is more than each of its parts individually. It isn't the best game ever but I enjoyed my time with it.

they put the rest of the credits as an option on the title screen. there's a unique video and Florence song over it, so I'm guessing it was supposed to be mandatory at one point, but I'm glad they made it optional. i hate a 20 minute credits sequence that puts an additional scene afterwards.

The game is so hand-holdy when it comes to driving the car: can't drive too fast, can't drive off-road, can't even drive in the wrong lane. Then you get the power of flight and it's like "Good luck, motherfucker."  :doge

You can't kill the Axemen until you get the sword (unless I missed something) and you have to hide from them until they aren't alert otherwise the doors lock. If the mini map had giving me a FOV indicator for them or anything it wouldn't have been so bad. It wasn't the worst thing ever but just kinda a poorly designed section.

The two things I legit hate in this game are the Regalia F and the Adamantoise fight. Both felt like the real wasted potential everybody tries to apply to the rest of the game(I'll give y'all chapter 13, though).

I got my first Game Over when using the Type F. I don't think I'll ever try it again unless there's something I have to use it for.

I've done as much sidequests as I can stomach now.  Level 80 with still probably 10+ hunts and I think three or four dungeons to do, finally moving on to the end game stuff.

Love the time jump and how Noct looks now.  Digging the King's clothing

Ifrit fight was really cool but really easy.  Honestly, I've not encountered a truly hard boss outside of the snake female assholes.  Hoping the Ardyn fight is at least somewhat tough, but this is all probably a result of my over-leveling.

Just keep the ring on them for a few seconds and eventually they'll die. They'll get a few hits in on you first, but when you kill them you get your health back anyway.

So I know most of you have already finished but I'll chime in with my thoughts.

I'm 18 hours in, lvl 27 and just got to chapter 5. This game is a lot of fun. It's my favorite FF since IX and the first since XI I have had fun with. I have no idea what is going on with the story but the side quests, exploration and core gameplay have me playing for hours at a time which is something I rarely do nowadays.

How do some of you have so much money in this game? I'm at the end and currently just cleaning up sidequests, but the most I've ever had at once is about 35k.

Btw, chapter 13 wasn't as bad as people made it seem. A little too long, but that's it.
