In various videos of this I've seen some high class food porn of Ignis actually making the dish or whatev

Is that actually a thing in game or what

You can see the finished dish when he's done cooking it. You can only cook at camp sites.
You can actually get the car into a shape you can't drive it anymore and it has to get towed, I believe. I never bothered to try it out.

Sure is nice the bad guys dont have the dropships drop dudes when you're "in town"(and when you sleep.)

Using a marriage treaty as a ruse to invade the capital city and kill the king , fine. Messing with the prince at some gas station, off limits.

Yup, at the moment Ignis thinks the gang is too weak to be out at night and protests by refusing to drive, so you take the wheel at night at the risk of running into daemons (which the guys should do for Good LP Content™). After a few more story quests manual driving opens up during the day, and later into the game Ignis will "gain confidence in Noctis' strength" and be willing to drive at night.

She sits under your car and dremmels out a rusty bolt and she's all like, 'Mhhmm yeah let that dirty rusty grit slip all up in my tits. No coveralls for me"

I prefer episodes that range anywhere from 20-50 minutes, an hour pushes it a bit but can be fine

Oh please, there can never be enough of you two playing FF15. Longer videos are GOOD for this, this is non-stop laughs. When you get to start driving I can only imagine this taking off more :v:

As long as you get a FAQ-map for all those arbitrary "look around this circle for our glowing dot" jobs all is good.

Sometimes it's hard to determine a good stopping point with this game because it never feels like we're making a lot of progress. Personally I think we should try to keep it closer to 30-40min and just try to post them more often from here on out.

Please tell me if I am wrong

I do not believe you to be wrong. As more often then not with JRPG games at points it will feel like progress is frozen, but then you hit a story point where things start to speed up before hitting a slow point once more. Even you guys just went story point to story point you'd end up falling behind with the more fun parts of the game, i.e. Fishing.

Take as long as you need for the magic to happen, without burning yourself out.

Given the roaming nature of this game, 20 minutes can end up being only enough time to hit your stride. But forcing yourself to make 45 minute to hour long episodes every time could also get old for you and your co-commentary. So do what feels good.

Dungeon based episodes are probably going to be interesting. Considering you cant manually save in them :v:

JT Jag posted:

Ok. Dropships. I will clarify the hint I made a while ago.

If you want to poo poo all over the game, and on groups of dropship troopers in particular, and be cost efficient while you're at it, combine 99 sheep's milk with 99 of any elemental energy when you're crafting magic. 99 sheep's milk costs 990 gil. This will get you 6 uses of dualcast -aga magic. Thundaga in particular is very useful for dealing with dropships.

It is up to the LPers whether you wish to use this power.

This only gets me Thundara. Do I need some ascension skills or something?

Kinda meh on the battle system in this game. It's confusing, buggy, and hard to keep up with, even on Wait mode.

You need Powercraft. Also, did you make sure to actually add the sheep's milk, because in my experience just adding 99 of an element to a flask gets you to -ara.

My dumb post aside, yeah this is pretty much a not-dumb way to say what I wanna see. I enjoy longer videos but don't strain yourself.
