What the gently caress is this game. It's like Monster Hunter with more leather and tedium.

Noct's alt outfit looking like a knock-off Aiden Pearce is really helping the "cobbled together mess of nonsense" vibe this game gives off.

I'm starting to get on board with this game after the tonally bizarre "emotional" scenes of Noctis trying to deal with his country (city...?) being torn apart while he's dressed like a stupid rear end in a top hat.

Were we ever given a reason for Milfheim invading Insomnia or is that yet to be revealed? Are the Milfs just a regular old Final Fantasy evil empire?

AlphaKretin posted:I mean, we're only an hour or 2 of plot progress in, mind. They leave the city, filler happens, the city gets invaded, they return to it, and have now set off for a safe refuge. The open world is admittedly detrimental here, but give the character development some time. For me it isn't so much that the characters are bland as whenever they do say things or display traits, I want heavy objects to fall on them.

Does this carnival really not even have a ferris wheel or anything? The only thing to ride is gondola man's obviously on-rails boat? You're not fooling anyone, gondola man.Bruceski posted:You think ducks are bad? Ducks will fight back if you crowd them, but geese are aggressively territorial bastards. My hometown had an artificial pond that was owned by the geese, we couldn't shift them for preservation reasons, they crapped everywhere (I think ducks crap in the water while geese crap out of it), and would attack anyone who stood still for more than five seconds. The geese around here are pretty cool, but I worked at a place that had a couple of swans. gently caress swans. You see all this swan propaganda around about them being beautiful majestic birds. They are not. They're fat ugly sacks of crap. Have you ever seen a swan poo poo? Swans poo poo like dogs. Just big green, loafy turds all over the pavement. Sometimes they're shiny and gooey and I don't know how. And when you go over there to sweep it off, they start eyeballing you and puff up like they're gonna fuckin' fight you. gently caress. Swans.

This whole DLC seemed like a waste of time until that climax with the squirrel-cat. Also great that you could snap pictures the entire time until the actual finale.

Does this game still have a sprawling Final Fantasy plot or is that like 5% of the game and the rest are dumb side "quests" and hunts like every other RPG made nowadays?

God dammit I hate open world games with impassable chest-high fences and poo poo everywhere. What's the point of a giant map with nothing to do except run back and forth across it for dumbass fetch quests? I don't understand games! I don't understand anything!! Aaaarrgghh!

Lt. Conquistador posted:Also, fun fact, choosing any of the other options for the "Perfect Cup Noodle Ingredient" will lead you to a subpar boss in the overworld. Good job accidentally picking the right option. It was no accident, eggs on ramen are great. That egg topping business is a great idea. You're even in San Francisco where that type of thing would probably catch on with the hipsters.

Maybe part of the incentive is supposed to be letting Tekken fans beat the piss out of Noctis.

It makes it a lot worse when the NPCs are knowingly addressing Noctis as the prince in exile before asking him to collect beans and poo poo for them. They could've really easily spun it as like Noctis was cooped up in the palace all his life or something, so even though his kingdom's in ruins, this is still his first real chance to experience life on the outside with most people not knowing who he is to justify all the sidequest bullshit the game gets you into. Instead you just roam around the lovely world in your jumping car with your cadre of dudebro cybermen and no one calls you out on loving off to go camping and feed cats while your dad king has been murdered and who even knows anymore what your supposed love interest is doing. My immersion is being ruined!

If you told me this weird gondola town was cut and pasted from the last one we visited, I would believe it. They spent that whole boat ride summarizing the "plot", but the amount of information they provided could've taken two sentences. That's all that happened. Nothing happens in this game!

Uh, did they actually say why they're summoning the fish lizard thing or just that they're going to do it? That town is at least superficially neutral with the evil empire and they're the only threat in the game's world aside from random nighttime monsters, right?
