I got major The 3rd Birthday vibes off that "THE TINY GIRL IS HEAVY AND SHE'S EMBARRASSED ABOUT IT" scene, in that I have a sinking feeling it's an obscure fetish the director shoehorned in.

Also the brown orb creature made me want to die every time it spoke

I am kinda baffled that just leaving the way you came doesn't complete the objective "escape the airship".

That sure is some game design.

@Kuvo If you were trying to get the flying car, you can't until you beat the game. Which by then, according to the internet, it's borderline useless because it only works in Lucis and anyone who cared about completing side stuff probably did already. Also if you crash or land improperly you game over, but that might be worth seeing in a bonus clip on its own. Leave it to FF15 to poo poo on the series tradition of giving you the badass Airship experience at a point where it'd be interesting and could matter.

If you're talking about what I think you're talking about, then yes, it is stupid and pointless.

Took me about two hours to get through that loving dungeon and didn't even get a boss battle.

The only thing I know about this game is that when you were back in the past, you really should have kept up with that one quest where you met everyone in the diner to talk about earthquakes.

Because I'd love to see how long it would take you guys to finish that one.

The garrison quest could be done during the normal faffing around the world map part of the game, I think after you started trying to be Solid Snake and fought Jiggly Dragon.

I forgot all about the fact I did that quest, finished the game, went back in time and suddenly Cindy asks if I want to use the macguffin plot coupon I had no idea I got to do the thing.

I like your style hombre, but this is no laughing matter. Assault on a police officer. Theft of police property. Illegal possession of a firearm. FIVE counts of attempted murder. That comes to... 29 dollars and 40 cents. Cash, cheque, or credit card?

Don't cross-promotion schemes usually have some kind of thing so you have to use one product to get the deal on the other? This is just a regular coupon. Is it still April Fools Day?

Sigh. The way things are going, I imagine future SE games will be released unfinished and/or carved up in this fashion too. KH3 and FF7 will end up selling gangbusters no matter how hosed up they are but I wonder how long it'll take until people get fed up with it or if SE will have to cross a line somewhere before that happens. Or if every AAA game will be like this in the near future and it'll just be the new normal.

Well, at least 7's still meant to be episodic, right? Presumably that means they'll actually finish the episode before releasing it.

But you know, I don't think too many other people are insisting on making some sort of grand cinematic experience, that seems to be mostly final fantasy getting entirely too far up its own rear end.

Then again, what do I know. The most recently released game I've played was like, Persona 5. I'm pretty sure all the dlc for that was just costumes and poo poo.


Do people really replay final fantasy games so much that they actually expect people will still have this installed/be willing to reinstall it a year from now to play some dlc? That's nuts.

Games are a service now. What you pay for upfront is just a foundation of basic mechanics and ideas until you can start buying bits of content to fill it up. Effective marketing can take care of the rest. :haw:

Literally at the final dungeon and yet there's zero reason to give a poo poo about our merry boyband. Like, it's not that modern FF games haven't generally had pretty bland casts but at least there's usually someone who's likeable, and here we ain't even got that.
