Any help finding the headlights? I've reached the marker and everyone talked about how we're here at last, but there's nothing here.

It's loving terrible but there's a hallway hat has like three or four pipes that look like they all go to the same place but one leads to a chamber where there's nothing in it but the headlights. It within the blue circle.

e: watch which one this guy goes into https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jl22Khvl3PQ

By the by, anyone know how much exp you need to hit max level? I'm sitting on about 350k right now, at level 53.

Bloodborne had more frequent load times? If you're running around doing side quests/hunts in FFXV you hit a load screen every five minutes. Take hunt, load screen to destination, do quest, load screen back to car, load screen to tipster, rinse/repeat and maybe throw a drive in between the first load screen and the quest destination. It's goddamn terrible.


I think I'm going to shelve this for a while as I really want to see what they do over the next few months. I'd really like to see them clean up battles such as:

• Let me assign any three techniques to the slots or more importantly let me quick-switch techniques in battle because you can already do it without penalty but it's just incredibly inconvenient. Bad interface shouldn't infer gameplay.
  
• loving tell me WHY I can't use a certain technique when I have enough bar filled. Tell me if a bro is too far away or if it's status ailment blocked. I've had so many instances of a bro standing right next to me not doing a drat thing with no negative status and been unable to use a certain technique.
  
• Do something about techniques whiffing due to AI getting hung up on random poo poo in the environment or whiffing for unknown reasons. If it's a dice roll to land (which I don't think it is) tell me but otherwise just clean up dumb AI.
  
• Stop taking control away of the camera constantly for every technique and sometimes just "because" in battle. Battles are already a clusterfuck with 4+ people and an unresponsive or stuck camera is killer.
  
• Fix the wait-time targeting bug. Sometimes in wait-time you can only target one enemy and pressing left or right to swap targets just doesn't work. Right now you have to exit wait time and go back into it to correct.
  

Obviously there are lots of other places this game could be hardened but the above aren't new features, they're just improving on or fixing existing ones.

Based on how they keep saying the Empire has killed them and Leviathan is seen destroying stuff again is it safe to assume you having the summons is not canon?

I mean if you chain hunts?

But no I just got quests from as many people as possible and almost all the hunts are within the same zone as the quest giver.

Zu?
The mountain top like 600 feet from the rest station. Very few hunts are far from where the quest giver is. Few examples are the ones in The power plant city, mainly the fat guy, the rest are quests that can be taken simultaneously allowing you to focus on quests in an area then move on. To top it off, all hunts can be taken to any hunt person.

-You can't use techniques with the bar filled when the person is being attacked or is petrified, or is currently getting the poo poo knocked out of them or in danger mode. health bar right on the other side of the screen is a big tell.
- thats 0 to do with interface and more to do with the user experience. How would you go about swapping mid fight without even more menus? Like they want you to use a menu that freezes time and has no loading time. or you'd rather scramble through something that would require you to hold multiple buttons down mid battle?
-The camera is taken away during techniques because most techniques grant you invincibility during their use and also some (overwhelm) have scripted interactions to your benefit more often then not, Like a follow up attack that can also flip the aggression off of your party because noct has a follow up. I've had some hosed up glitches and I can't think of a time I can pin it on the game making me invincible and shifting focus to the enemy I already have targeted.
-I can't comment on wait time because i've never used it, this may be valid.


There are SO very MANY things that can be improved in this game

EX- why can't cid let me choose which weapon to upgrade? He should have a regular menu like nearly any other useful NPC in the game
-chapter 13 is more pressing then most of this.
-Wait time skills costing AP at all
-the later skills costing ludicrous amounts of AP
-Emeny varience
-Lack of a bestiary
-A more usable scan feature
-optimizing load times here and there wouldn't hurt a soul clearly, as it stands they aren't any where near as bad as bloodbornes which you needed to use heftily dying or not if you leveled your character up with any sort of frequency. here the longest load is starting the game
-Weapon variance.
-The royal arms take too much damage away from you when being used and should all be on the level of the one you receive in chap 13. which has little to none. Up until they point they are heavily based on how much damage you deal.
-Having a stamina gauge at all when it is the same thing as MP but for running.


Like I love this game but dislike a ton, but the things that need to be fixed are glaring, the other things are usually self inflicted.

Like if you decided to quick travel to an area less than a mile from you instead of jumping on a chocobo, you're gonna have to face a load time
While not optimal and something that should be fixed if possible, it has a solution that's right there.

Even the witcher 3 had hosed up loading glitches when loading it from auto saves instead of files for the first year.
If you lost a battle and didn't load a save you waited like 4 times longer for no reason.

Lotta self inflicted complaints here!! If things are costing too much AP, just don't spend any AP! Royal arms causing too much damage? Don't use em! Stamina gauge? Just stop sprinting! Emeny varience? Just run from every fight!

It seemed to me that Shiva faked her death and disguised herself as Gentiana for reasons. Titan and Leviathan had the illusion of dying when they gave you their power. Ramuh was in hiding as was Bahamut was in the Crystal the whole time and Ifrit is just a plain jerk.

Shiva has her consciousness divided between multiple things, thats why during her summon there are like 6
Titan was trying to test your power before giving it to you, the empire jerks just also decided lets attack him

C12 Luna was dying already? Ravus was a good guy all along?

I'm so confused about everything that doesn't have to do with my boys.

Regarding my quick swap technique comment, there are many, many action games that have interfaces that allow you to select between more than three items or weapons in realtime. The UI in FFXV is loving garbage.


And yeah it sucks poo poo that switches look like generic background props and don't get called out as interactable until you're right on top of them...and then you'll probably jump anyway.

The summons can die, and leave a corpse, but they are perfectly capable of "reawakening" on their own as Shiva/Gentiana did, or being reawoken by the Oracle. Dying isn't the end for the gods, it's just like a time out. Killing Titan after you got the blessing was pointless for the Empire, because now you can incarnate him whenever you need. Same with Leviathan. That's why they tried to kill them before you made the pact, because then Luna would have to do her bit over again.

It would also just be nice if you could pick three techniques instead of one from each because frankly I'd rather slot in Ignis's stuff.
