He is literally me
>>507948436hes cute & id date him
i wanna ride my chocobo all day
>>507948436>My brother is a huge XV fagDon't know guys......
>>507948436I wish I was as cute.
ARIGATOU CHOCOBO
>>507948436He's great. Below Ignis and above Gladio>breaks the fourth wallNigga him and Noctis did nothing but game before the war. Of course he's going to talk about the shit he wasted his life on
>WHEE WOOO THIS IS LIKE A REAL LIFE RPG and DO YOU GUYS KNOW ABOUT THE KEYBLADE FROM KINGDOM HEARTSI know Holla Forums has a extremely particular hate boner for this game but you're really overblowing the tiniest of things that take up like 2 seconds of the game
>>507948436For people to pair with Gladio, of course
>>507948436he's a pretty cute twink.
And yet Prompto is still not the biggest faggot in the party.
He is a Cloud Strife clone minus the personality and interesting backstory. Also, JFL at that horrible twist at the end. Is him not being from Insomnia was supposed to be dramatic or something?
>>507948436>Reveal to the party that he's some kind of meagitek soldier created by their enemies>The party says 'ok' and the plot moves on without dwelling on itGod FFXV was shit
>>507948436To have cute Prompto x Akechi art.
>>507948848If your best friend of 10 years told you his parents were Muslim but he wasn't, would you care?
>>507948802Holy based.Fuck this nigga.
>>507948848What the fuck was that shit? MT troopers are magic goo extracted from daemons that was pre-programmed and put in the suits of armor. Why is Prompto suddenly a runaway not_Hojo experiment?
>>507948948I dunno, revealing that you were specifically created to kill your friends seems like a bigger deal than the game makes it out to be.
>>507948848That's the whole point though user.They don't care who he really is because he's their friend and has been through thick and thin with them.
>>507948804i think the whole Prompto DLC that was supposed to explain that got cut from the main game, making the reveal feel sudden and weird. (not sure though, i decided not to give square my money for cut content)
>>507948543Damn, does he beat you with the white PS4?
>>507949147MT troopers are not magic goo extracted from daemons. They were but that went haywire.MT troopers are Verstael clones raised in tubes and then turned into MT troopers. Prompto got rescued as a tube kid by a Glaive and taken to Insomnia.
>>507948802Yeah, what a giant fucking asshole. If Noctis was an ounce the true king the game claims him to be he would have this bastard guillotine'd for all that shit-talk.
>>507948436The crew needed a bottom and none of them had the courage to stick their dick in a king's ass
Ignis > Prompto > powergap > shit > Gladio
>>507948436He cute, so he's forgiven.
>>507948436I wanna slay this fuccbois tight bp
>>507948802God i want gladio to fuck me senseless
>>507949320Meaning that old weirdo was a twink boi too.
I'm literally him
>>507948436Yet his character is still deeper than most in Final Fantasy.
>>507949816>old weirdoWho?
I wish there was more primals (That what they're called?) in this game. I loved the designs of them. I wanted to see what Odin and Diabolos looked like. Would they make Odin finally look like a fucking viking?
>>507949816
>>507948436Fucking homos
>>507949962>PrimalsYou mean Astrals
He aged like fine wine compared to Noctis
>>507949962Ramuh isn't Odin
>>507949158Seems like that's exactly what I said and you had no response.
>>507950102Chadtis aged the best.
>FANTASY BASED ON REALITY
>>507950307>turns into John Snow after the time skip
>>507950102the goatee is kinda cringe, only a straight boy would grow something like that
>>507950102
>>507948804>him not being from InsomniaHe was born as a clone for Niflheim's magitek infantry.
>>507949962Diabolos actually appears user... sadly it's just a transformed emperor in the near the endgame and it's fight is dissapointing like everything after altissia
>>507950102No, he didnt
Somnus did nothing wrong.
>>507948802I hope Gladio burns in hellt. IgnisCHAD
>>507951346somnus can go fuck himself with his ugly sword, in fact, he and Bahamut and all of the astrals can go fuck themselves.
>>507951498based
>it's revealed at the end that he's a demon clone>never mentioned again
>>507951498Holy based
>>507951346is this some complete addition bs? i dont fuckin remember this and astrals stuff in the game?? dont tell me i need to play though the game again cause they added more story shit..
>>507950521>implying every clone will age the same
>>507952487It's Episode Ardyn.
>>507952595Fair point. I just find the idea of Prompto aging like that funny.
>>507952487it's Epidose Ardyn a.k.a the canon ending (along the episode luna novel) according to some of the devs
>>507948436Nice to see a XV thread after giving it another chance. I hated it during my first playthrough so much that I rushed through it and during the last area I used cheat engine to make me level 99.Playing it again without feeling rushed to get through the story. Using the nil experience item for a lv1 run. It’s actually much more enjoyable. Enemies aren’t brain dead easy and I can explore and quest without overleveling.Found a mine is the first chapter that I didn’t know existed and actually got spooked by the jump scares in the dungeon. Shame an optional dungeon was miles better than the story ones. Lv 50 daemon boss wasn’t very fun at level, to be honest. Still game is better if you play it slow, don’t expect the story to ever get good so don’t rush.
>>507952794>a.k.a the canon ending (along the episode luna novel) according to some of the devshow can you be this fucking wrong??its literally the opposite you daft retardthe new DLCs (now the book) were always referred to as non-canon what-if situations
>>507952914>lv1 runDo you still get ap? I might give it another shot because reaching "totally not venice" at level 55 made the game so fucking easy it wasn't worth playing
>>507953226Yes you get AP.
>be 4 hours into the game>love it>be 6 hours into the game>hate itThe road trip feel fell apart the moment I was asked to go through the same areas again and again for shitty MMO-tier quests. On that note fuck that retarded journalist and his obnoxious voice. Also Cor is cool but I can't help but hear Matt Mercer whenever he talks. And don't get me started on Insomnia, having it all happen off-screen was so retarded it severely impacted my enjoyment of the game.
>>507953426This game feels like an offline mmo to me. From the quests to the world to the combat system. It’s like a pseudo-action mmo.
>>507953426ff XV like VII suffered from sever development issues, the latter from a console shift and the former from engine shift.the difference was that even when VII had to cut a shitton of shit for the PSX release the devs actually managed to pull something coherent from begining to end. XV on the other hand also had to cut a shitton of things but instead of adapt it and get a full coehernt thing they just kept as much as they could from the first half and rushed the second half and it sadly showd to the point when the models on niffleheim are a mess, and some even get stuck forever(yeah am looking at you deathgaze) and well the WoR literally is just the Galdin Quay bay
>>507953426The dlcs are unironically better than the base game
>>507953558There is basically nothing else to do but side-quests and fishing, the plot is paper-thin and what's left of it happens at the speed of light. after you finish visiting tombs and collecting the Astrals blessings
>>507953426just dont do the sidequests thendo hunts if they seem interesting and collect all the royal weapons
>>507953996Even media tie-ins for Terra Battle and FFXIV are better than the base game.
Ey Prince!
>>507954242Why is this guys character so different between Japanese and English dub
>>507954231Noctis has more chemistry and interactions with the Terra girl than the woman she's supposedly been in love with since he was a kid
>>507954390It's still baffling how Tabata managed to ruin a game that was like 90% conceptually complete when Nomura left.
>>507954390>Luna gets more screen time in flashbacks
>>507954516outside the whole porting mess between engines it probably was just a severe case of "creative differences" and Tabata ust wanted to show his ideas instead
>>507954516I don't get the reasons behind going out of their way to change the plot. I could get wanting to do their own thing but from the moment you use Noctis and the plot is about Insomnia being invaded, doing your own story is kind of impossible already. As it stands right now, the dozens if not hundreds of Versus remnants still in the game like all the references to the number 13, or Luna's surname, or the Somnus lyrics, etc. all make no sense.
>>507948436He's also extremely fuckable
>>507954873> "I'm gonna larp as gay to trigger homophobi Holla Forumsirgins hahaha"Smells like suicide waiting to happen, people who troll on 4chan must have such pathetic lives.
>>507954649>Noctis and Luna have ONE (1) line of dialogue in the present face to face while Luna's alive>but Noctis is unconscious during itYou cannot make this shit up
>>507948436my husband~
>>507955061Sorry sweaty, but half of Holla Forums are a bunch of unironic homosexual coomers.
>>507955061>Not expecting unironic homosexuals in a Final Fantasy thread of all places.
>>507955285Nop. You str8 boys LOVE pretending to be gay as a joke. You are the ones using Ricardo anda ll the gay shit memes or intentionally looking for Cloud x Barret shit to trigger or troll other Holla Forumsirgins.You're all incels who will commit suicide because no girl will want to fuck you, none of you are gay. Seethe more that you were found out.
>>507948802Gladio is the best party member just by a bit, but they all do a fair amount of maturingI'm not even going to do a ranking, each of them (Prompto less so) man the fuck up by the end and really earn their titles of King and Crownsguard
>>507950775Wait... THAT WAS DIABOLOS?
>>507955405>* fujos LARPing as homosexual males
>>507955815Fair.
>>507955431Based. Ironic faggots should get the rope.
>yfw used to listen to this waiting for Versus to come out youtu.be
>>507954516It's one thing to switch directors but when they decided to then write out all the Fabula Nova Crystallis lore to replace it with something else and change it into a numbered title, I can't really blame him for wanting it to be his game even if it came out shitty.
>>507950307How come Square doesn't make more aged protagonists? Here's Sephiroth with a beard.
>>507956031>Versus Omnis Lacrima is so much better than XV'sHow did they do ityoutu.be
>>507948436Sounds like he is Holla Forums's perfect self-insert.
>>507955061>>507955431Aren't you that schizo from the gay Holla Forums threads that thinks every literal faggot on Holla Forums is just pretending as a way to get at you specifically?Unironically get help
>>507956115Nobody likes old people, especially jaded 30+ salarymen.
>>507955431I'd offer to suck your dick as proof of my homosexuality, but I'd rather not risk catching whatever brain worms your room temp iq-ass has
>>507956556Why is it then than most often than not the "30+ old man trope" in a JRPG is the most liked character?
>>507953426>All offscreen>Didn't watch kingsglaive>Didn't watch the FREE youtube seriesok retard
>>507956620Wanna suck mine, user?
I don’t hate this game at all, but it’s an absolutely fucking bizarre product. It’s VXIII period, the trailer stuff that was cut like escaping from Insomnia, it’s weird-ass demo that let you plays as monsters and change the weather (completing it was the only way to get Carbuncle) with its own cutscenes that don’t appear in game, the tie-in anime and movie that’s necessary viewing. Then the game launched and they kept adding content, dlcs and free content, some of which change the game drastically like character switching. Don’t forget the timed crossover quests and multiplayer mode.There must have been a decade of work going into the project and it’s an absolutely wild ride following the whole thing. Then it all just died suddenly in 2018. What was this company thinking?
>>507956663>here's our new videogame>but to get the FULL EXPERIENCEâ„¢ you need to watch a movie, an anime series, a drama CD, a book and get a college careerA VIDEOGAME should stand on its own, get fucked
>>507956925>Bro how dare you expect me to care about the story>How dare you tell me to watch the prequel movie>I care about the story very much thank you????????????????
>>507956801only if you take me out to dinner afterwards
>>507957056>Bro how dare you expect me to care about the story of a videogame that's not told in the fucking videogameExactly
>>507956895>>507956895>What was this company thinking?They weren't. Square's higher ups are the reason all their major projects last gen were fucked. XIII, XIV and Versus all suffered for it, the latter probably the most seeing how its corpse was kept around for a decade until it ""became"" XV.
>>507949158But it didn’t matter. They have been friends for years and endured plenty of hardships. By that point, how he was brought into the world doesn’t matter. They’d be shit friends if they treated him any differently.
>>507957135So don't, you don't have to watch either of those things to know the story.
>>507956663Imagine defending telling the story of a game outside the game because its development is a fucking mess and they'd rather spend money on a fucking anime or a CG movie featuring Sean Bean that must've cost millions to make instead of actually giving us a good fucking game. Vanilla Chapter 13 was a fucking nightmare but hey, there's a movie you can watch that tells you the plot that should've been in-game ;)
>>507957074you got a deal
>>507957327>ow did my father die>some weird cool looking guy in armor stabbed the crap out of him>okay, who was that? Will I fight him?>...>also in the cutscene there was this bald looking guy that defended him, who was he? Did he die?>...
>>507957204Remember when they told us XIII would have three games, all in the fabula nova universe and all connected with eachotherI remember and feel old as fuck
>>507957465You literally get told they all die and insomnia falls why would you expect them to be alive retard
>>507957405Muh
>>507957471And now it's the FNC remnants that look out of place. There is no slumbering god anymore and and Insomnia doesn’t worship the dead. Their goddess isn’t Etro and Odin isn’t their patron. Niflheim doesn't have Bahamut. Noctis can’t interact with the dead and Stella doesn’t exist. Somnus, Omnis Lacrima and Nox Divina make no sense. It's all kinds of fucked.
>>507948436It's not the fourth wall breaking. He is a game addict.
>>507957629>retard can't into reading comprehensionFigures.
>>507957471Technically it happened. The XIII Trilogy and Agito/Type 0 all have the same Pantheon and mythology. Versus was the only one that didn’t come out.
>>507954516Idk if Tabata deserves 100% of the blane
>>507957773Try not resorting to ad hom, child :)
>>507957926>with no argument left, the user resorts to "muh fallacy"Like pottery
>>507958028Keep going barry, i'm sure you'll be able to stroke your tiny pp even harder and think you've won.
>>507958163>I'm Barry>even though I'm shitting on XVUh-huh. Please, continue telling me how good leaving plot elements outside the game is good :)
>>507951346Episode Ardyn and Prologue protraying Somnus like a fucking cartoon villain and going so far out of the way to make Ardyn look as good as possible really fucked up my entire impression on him. Ardyn was fine, I don't need to see the bullshit, and playing it up to that extreme to make Noct's ancestors look like huge assholes and Luna's being totally into Ardyn the whole time not Somnus just ruined the entire thing.Ardyn went from a suave chill dude with a vague but justified agenda with the history to match his power and rage to a fucking god-tier Mary Sue.Gameplay was great though, Ardyn vs The City of Insomnia was easily my favourite part of the whole game outside of Comrades giving us the Bahamut battles we always deserved
>>507948436Meta commentary
>>507955061>>507955431You have straightphobia, seek help.
>>507958371>Comrades on ps4 runs at sub 30fps and feels like a slideshowI'll never experience those battles.
Reminder XV was so fucking rushed the car in the intro is still the Versus car instead of the Regalia.
>>507958612>What do you mean they swapped cars? THATS NOT ALLOWED AND NOT REALISTIC IN MY FANTASY RPG
>>507958568I'm glad I'm a dumb consolefag and mid-tier laptop tech and haven't reached that point where 30fps bugs me yet.Comrades is incredible and the one thing in XV I genuinely loved in its entirety. So much fun, so many cool fights, so much more weapon control and build control. Played and met a ton of people, even played with the actual Libertus a bunch of times.
>>507959050>they swapped cars>conveniently did so from the Versus one to the XV one>even though as you can see in the map Insomnia isn't that far away from Hammerhead and as a matter of fact you return to Insomnia's entrance once it falls>even though the Regalia was Regis' personal car and the one he used for decades>you're telling me they used a random car to drive from Palace to the entrance of the city where the Regalia was, for some reason
>>507959639They used a glamour prism to disguise it so people wouldn't recognize the Regalia and key it.
>>507948436
>>507959881Did they now? Any reason why they FIXED IT in the mobile game then?
>>507959883Damn I didn't know Geralt was in this game.
>>507959986Mobile game is set in an alternate continuity where they didn't hide the Regalia and leads to the storyline of the manga that was only available with Nissin cup noodle packs.

>install a free DLC Holiday Pack+>it's fucking useless because it was a time-limited eventeurogamer.net
Ignis > Prompto > Gladiolus
>>507962127based. imagine having chef/butler/bro like him. fucking set for life.
>>507961884What in the actual fuck. I mean sure I guess Comrades can't be live forever but what?? Avatara System on PC is going? Wasn't that just the custom protagonist? Why would that have to be removed?Wait doesn't it say PC Comrades only is going? I'm on PS4 so its fine? that's still fucked up though.
>>507948436the 4 brothers fucking around on a road trip and having dumb personalities was the only good part of this otherwise shit game you joyless faggot
I actually really liked how incompetent he was. Gladio and Ignis are trained royal guards doing crazy anime shit in battle and you rotate the camera and Prompto's just...rolling on the ground for some reason trying to look cool shooting people.
>>507962959His HP pool was also so low you spent more time injecting potions into him than dealing damage
>>507956620>a homo having standardsYeah no, you're larping
>>507949574Cor >>>>>>> all
>>507964665Reminder he was supposed to be a party member
>>507948436Honestly my only issue with him is the way he prances around in fights.It's very strange to watch in the background.
you guys that liked this game did you get the tekken with nocits in it?
>>507948802It sucks because he has the coolest design in Noctis's party, but acts like a spastic asshole
>>507962959He was there because he was the one who was the most emotionally close to Noctis. I forget the chart that someone posted shortly after release, but Notcis' relationship with each of the bros was something like:>Finds Ignis the most reliable>Has the most fun with Gladiolus>Trusts and gets along with Prompto the best (or "Prompto will always be there for me")With that in mind, it's actually surprising well done the events that happen to each of the characters in the game (or would be, if they had a bit better pacing to get to know the group a bit, or even had the awareness to make it explicitely mentioned at some point).>Ignis goes blind and Noct and team are forced to take care of him instead of being able to rely on him (which happens BECAUSE he was trying to help Noctis)>Gladiolus goes from "Bro who spars with me/takes me hunting cool monsters" to Noctis' biggest critic.>Noctis is tricked into attacking Prompto and abandoning him on the train.He doesn't have as much of an excuse early on. But "bitchy" Noctis was SO CLOSE to being perfectly justified considering his home was destroyed, and then things start happening to challenge the way he treats the few friends he has left.
>>507966667>this entire postSeeing what could've been only makes it worse, user
>>507966840Yeah user see that one's on you cause I know this never would have been.
>>507955061A lot of fujos browse here.
>>507967270Anything can be if done by good devs/publishers and without a retardedly stupid deadline and/or higher ups. Both Versus and XV were fucked over time and time again, they never had a chance.
>>507962230I like Gladio more for his jokes and pokes at Noctis during the road trip but man episode 14 Gladio is just straight unlikeable douchebag
>>507948436he gets fucked in the ass by the other three
>>507970316Cringe
>>507970316Everyone knows gladio is the party bitch
>>507958612Seriously
