The idea is basically the same for all of them. 6 of them are caves. Steyliff Grove and Costlemark are ruins. Costlemark also has the gimmick that you can't use any curative items.

C'mon, y'all, egg was clearly the right answer on the ingredient that should be added to a Cup Noodle. Why do I feel like I'm the only person anywhere who chose egg?

Is there a different mission for this?

Also has anyone uploaded any videos of conversations where they choose all the dickhead options for Noct like telling Prompto he's useless on the hotel roof?

All three are different missions. Egg takes you to Rock of Ravatogh to steal some Zu eggs.

Haha no, I think those options would be rather limited unfortunately. Although maybe Prompto would be happy if I let him live off pizza.

Which? Because there are several.

Vault doors require a postgame key and during the plot you're introduced to dungeons that open at night

Also goddammit you put chicken in ramen. Beef is okay but chicken is the best.

You have to come back at night. It and Costlemark Tower have doors that are closed during the day.

They're gods. That's the explanation. They don't have to conform to the sheeple mainstream conceptions about death.

Aranea tells you as much in Chapter 7 and you can autowait for night by talking to the guards right next to the entrance.

Costlemark isn't as kind, but it is supposed to be a late or post game challenge and the architecture is the same as Steyliff

I chose egg because what kind of jerk puts red meat in a vegetable/chicken based broth, and shrimp is even more bewildering to me.

Noctis, eat the eggs.

Also I am slightly annoyed that the more interesting/unique weapons like the shuriken, katana, and giant lightsaber-scepter all have the Royal Arms' "attack from HP" debuff applied to them.

I never would have started using them at all if I hadn't noticed that the katana has the Light/Holy element and therefore can actually damage flans and the like.

I've never attempted to do it but did that latest patch remove the permanent Aranea glitch?

That seems like the sort of thing that the developers might just decide to turn a blind eye to (or just fix the softlock-inducing aspects of) given how cool it is

Except he's still an impediment because he isn't able to use Regroup until much later.

Also, I wish the Valse Di Fantastica songs were available in the car radio. :/ It's sorta the best song in the game. ... Sorta.

Think I glitched the Jormungand fight in my favor in the Channels. After a certain point it just kinda curled up and did nothing and let me wail on it until it died. I mean I'm glad because I was way under leveled but it was just real weird.

I think they fixed the Aranea glitch. I hadn't even unlocked her before the patch but I've triggered her joining three times and immediately racing away on a chocobo but she leaves less than 30 seconds later. I could be not doing it right. But :shrug:

I have a glitched quest. Trying to get the last quest for the hammerhead diner done. The internet tells me I needed to do a vendor fetch quest. I did all those. There is one with no ? but it has a yellow QUEST to turn in. But if i click it the game goes into conversation mode but nobody speaks and i can move around. i cant use items or interact with regalia or doors or anything. Pressing start brings up the --PAUSE-- screen not the save/load screen. Have to quit the game and reload.

Anybody deal with that? Gonna have a few quests unfinished :(

If you already reloaded then yeah, that's bad. The game seems to lose its triggers for item pickups/quest markers if you go too long without reloading, but that's usually just fixed by a restart.

If you're talking about the Catoblepas meat quest, then there's an easy way to confirm it's finished. The diner should now be serving a steak dish.

I had this happen with a fulsom farms quest. I think it had to do with them placing Takka quest markers and fulsom farms quest markers on top of each other. I permanently lost the fulsom famrs quest line from this. Which I was upset about at first, but then realized that I wasn't ever going to use the nonexperience award anyway.
