Eivion Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 I'm downloading the deluxe edition of FFXV. Why is is going to take such an ungodly amount of time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also just released the patch 1.03 DLC. Get that while you're at it. If you have the season pass you can download the holiday pack + which has the Ring of Resistance: a protective piece of jewelry that renders the entire party resistant to magical friendly fire. That will be very useful to you starting out. One other tip is that when you go to any Crows Nest Diner you can play a game called Justice Monsters Five. If you hit the bumpers during the game you will eventually get a slot machine where you can get treasures (it looks like a block of wood tbh.) I've found that early in the game if you play it until you get to 80 treasures you get a Platinum Bangle which increases their hit points by 700. If you're willing to get six of them, two each for Ignus, Prompto, and Noctis and put AP into getting a second equipment slot, it makes the hunts so much more fun as you're not worrying about healing the lower health characters every five seconds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaos Posted January 26, 2017 Author Share Posted January 26, 2017 I'm guessing that not a lot of people on this board are playing this, but I haven't had a chance to touch this in a few weeks and I started it back last night. I am only in Chapter 3 with my characters around level 17. I understand that the imperial drops become much more nightmarish after this chapter due to higher levels and the addition of mechs. Does anyone have a recommended level for leaving the chapter/some XP/AP/Gil grinding recommendations to do this chapter that isn't super cheesy. Right now, I'm just trying to do as many side quests and hunts as possible. My last hunt was a lot more resource intensive than I wanted it to be because I'm still not great at combat.

Eivion Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I probably made a mistake picking up Skyrim as I'm now having trouble leaving it alone. I really should get into this before Andromeda drops or I won't play it until after the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red is Dead Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Finally finished XV. Once you get to chapter 12 it's linear as all hell. It almost feels like they front loaded it with the side-quests and characters, only to leave the later levels with not a lot. Loved the music options though. dont get me wrong, it's a gorgeous game, with good intricate game play bits, but I just wished for more consistency throughout the game. Better than XIII, doesnt come close to X or XII Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziel Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Not that I have the system or time now, but just putting it out, Squeenix lowkey dropped Final Fantasy XII Zodiac Age on PS4 last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew that was coming soon. I was going to buy that at launch, but I have such a backlog right now, that I might wait for a price drop. $50 is a bit much at the moment.

EVA Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 I preordered it months ago, thinking it would be the game to get me through the summer until Destiny 2 came out. Then I bought a Switch and Zelda last Friday, and, well...not sure when I'll get around to it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLSigman Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 My copy should be here by Friday. $32 was the final price through Amazon for the non-frill version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cole Miner Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 Just finished XV for the first time. When you choose to take a picture with you I chose the picture of cup noodles I saved from that commercial quest. It really made a joke of the whole ending when they look at the picture right at the end. It was funny but talk about breaking the immersion. Game was disappointingly easy but still an alright experience overall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JLSigman Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 Yes, he has played the victory theme, at least in a promo someone linked to me a couple years ago when Edge was still around and they were kinda stooges/fanboys of someone else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos Posted March 5, 2018 Author Share Posted March 5, 2018 I'm fairly annoyed. I never bought the DLC for FFXV. With the Royal Edition coming out, I've debated just upgrading to that copy of the game wholesale (my copy of FFXV trades for like $11) so I could just easily get everything. However, Square has yet to release the price of the RE update. (Most are assuming $20, but the backlash with that initial announcement has people thinking Square could go $15).

Eivion Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 I bought the digital deluxe edition with Christmas money a year or two back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I almost bought the deluxe version at launch, but availability wasn't there, and the only reason I didn't go digital at the time was due to Amazon Prime. Now, I pretty much go digital for anything I know I won't trade in, and I'm pretty much trying to have less physical discs in my house. I traded in my FFXV copy for a digital copy of the Royal edition at Gamestop today. I'll get the download code at lunch tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 I bought it since it was a good deal at the time and I had the money. Usually I just get the regular edition of games. I knew there would be DLC coming though and I think that covered most of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziel Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 Necro because Royal Edition when 50% off on PSN so I picked it up. I'm digging it so far, although I just got the car so I'm only an hour or so in, since I went around and did some hunt sidequests and started learning the combat system and farming. I'm hoping how to make better magic comes along since it seems I'm on a rail until Chapter 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziel Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 I'm loving 15 so far, the whole open world thing and can take my time. I'm in chapter 3, but I'm now getting bombared with Imp soldier drops when I'm doing other shit and getting annoyed because I'm taking serious damage now while Level 18. I think I really need to learn the intricies of the magic, equipment, and combat systems (since you can change loadouts mid-battle, I'm guessing that makes a difference.)

John E. Dynamite Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Downloaded the Royal Edition. Was kind of grossed out that the game started w/ a tutorial instead of some evocative opening scene. Then the game glitched during the third part of the tutorial and I couldn't continue. I haven't played a new Final Fantasy game since X (although I'm probably good for XII when it hits Switch). The series was a big favorite of mine growing up, FFVI is my go-to answer for favorite game of all time. I generally distrust modern AAA anything so last night's experience was a real kick in the nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
