I was worried that you guys might not get the reference!
Crazy how that old song is even more relevant today, then when it was written back in the 80s!
We need an update with a Trump puppet.
Sometimes the chatter amongst your group of companions gets annoying in its repetitiveness and other times it's pretty funny. I like how sometimes after a battle Prompto will bust out singing the iconic Final Fantasy fanfare song, the song that you would hear after a victorious battle in the classic FF games.
The food in this game looks amazing. So delicious.
The soundtrack for Final Fantasy Mystic Quest damn well better be in this game.

If the Mystic Quest soundtrack is not in the game, S-E will never get my money.

That would be a travesty indeed. So far I have the soundtracks to all the numbered Final Fantasies plus a couple for Dissidia.

So it would be fair to say the camera has..... a bush fetish?

Off topic. 
Yeah I guess the camera does have a bush fetish.
Well I just finished Final Fantasy XV and while it's kind of low on my favourite Final Fantasy games it is a good game in general. The story is a bit of a mess with quite a few things which seem to have been left out, presumably for the movie. Many of the characters lack proper exposition to build motivation and such with some characters just kind of dropping out of sight. Gameplay can be enjoyable at times but can also be frustrating with a sometimes awkward camera and a magic system that makes its uses not as desirable as it should be because you have to watch out for your AI companions from also taking damage from it. Summons look awesome but they are too seldom ever able to be used. Game looks great albeit a bit blurry on the Xbox One however there is a patch coming to fix that. It can be enjoyable to just wander around but can be a bit confusing to plot specific paths to particular places ie. map knowledge can take awhile to come to grips with. There is a lot to do in the game both during the main story and after so this game will give you plenty to do.
Not one of my favourite Final Fantasies but an overall enjoyable and good game regardless. 8 out of 10
I'm really interested in seeing how the free updates will change the overall game.
. So yeah... FFXV huh?Archangel3371 said:Well I just finished Final Fantasy XV and while it's kind of low on my favourite Final Fantasy games it is a good game in general.

Better than XCX?

Well I gave FFXV an 8 and XCX a 9.5 so, no.

Did I miss your reviews or did you just throw it out in a post?

I just post briefly in the 2016 Games Beaten thread and perhaps in a thread if there is one for the specific game such as this one. I write down scores for all my games that I finish though in the 2016 Games Beaten thread.
So much missed potential in Chapter 14. Makes me sad. 
In all seriousness though FFXV and XCX are somewhat on par with each other. They both have a bit of strength and certain weaknesses compared to each other. Also the systems and expectations on each are a little different.
This game can get a bit glitchy at times. I almost think that it's getting more glitchy the more time I put into it. The auto driving seemed perfectly fine in the beginning but now letting it drive automatically to quest locations the AI occasionally has difficulty knowing exactly quite what to do. It'll do u turns a number of times instead of turning down the right road or parking at a parking spot at your destination. Had enemies fail to spawn a couple of times now. Travelling somewhere else and then coming back fixed this. Staying at a hotel or camping overnight would probably fix it as well. A couple of times I knocked an enemy out of the combat area and it considered the fight over. Battle music stopped and my companions stopped fighting. I could kill the enemy myself but I don't think that I got any experience or stuff from doing so. Once one of my companions failed to join the rest of us in a fight with a boss creature. He might have got stuck somewhere before we entered combat or something. I was able to still beat the boss but it took longer then it should have. Had the game crash about 4 times, usually while I was auto driving. The game is pretty good with the saving but if your not careful you could lose some valuable time.
Well done, Iga!
