Noctis: Why you leaving us Gladio? Gladio: Yo I got sweet gig promoting Cup Noodles around the world. There's going be noddles and fine bitches everywhere. See you fuckers later. Prompto: Son of a Bitch!
@@Pookabee The story is so shallow it basically doesn't exist, the world is a desert wasteland with nothing in it, none of the characters besides the party matter, the visuals are dull, and the gameplay is mediocre. I'm sorry, but XV was a rushed mess of a game and it really shows. They barely had time to make anything and it feels like a glorified tech demo. It's nice that you enjoy it, but it objectively has nothing of interest.
"Now that we've had our delicious Cup Noodles, we should go and take out a loan for a Mercedes-Benz. The harmony between performance and gas mileage is key."
While we're on our long journey along the country roads in our flash new Mercedes-Benz why not pick up a bottle of ice cold L&P? The perfect drink for the adventurous traveller. There's nothing much better than L&P when you're doing nothing much.
Noctis: "Man, I've been trying to call Cindy but I just can't seem to get a good signal." Prompto: "Sounds like you need an upgrade! With T-Mobile you can get good cell service anywhere! Whether you're in a dungeon or Altissia, cell service won't be a problem. Call anyone, anytime, anywhere!"
One of the voice actors confirmed on Reddit that they purposely voiced these scenes as tongue-in-cheek/blandly as possible because they also didn't care for the hammy in-game advertisement. It's most telling with Noctis at the end, given he's by far the best voice acted character in FF history.
When I did this quest, I didn't even realise that it was product placement for a brand called "Cup Noodle"; I thought Gladio just really liked cup noodles (the product, not the brand).
Yeah me too, but then I noticed a trend with Coleman camping gear, Audi cars and then I was like "oh wait, Nissin is the company and cup noodles is the actual name... wow."
I'm wholly convinced that Gladio's voice actor knew this advert was ridiculous and he voiced it as such. Especially at that sarcastic "The ultimate flavor experience!" line, lol. But I still enjoyed the laugh and I can't even be too mad at them. At least like with all the other product placements in the game, it actually serves a purpose, like the Coleman gear being very useful for the camping.
They actually had two takes of this, one where it's meant to be taken seriously and one where they were taking the piss and being sarcastic all over the place. Square-Enix US put in the latter.
Oh, that's nothing; the voice actor for Gladious, Chris Parson, did freaking Lil' Bush, voicing the title character. So of COURSE he took the piss on this.
dark zaku I agree it's cool as shit. I laughed till I cried at this. maybe if they did tons of it then it would be lame but this was hilarious and genius. seems like people either love or hate this I'm in the love camp. money makes the world go round and the classic ff games all had satire in them.
you know he wasnt promoting cup of noodles in the first portion of the game so nissin gave him that scar and told him if he didn't promote they'd finish the job.
Laugh so hard every time I play this quest. Gladio's enthusiasm and his voice is so great! And I live the FFXV cup noodles commercial they made to. That one caught me off guard lol
Imagine the voice actors while doing this scene... Fuck me even the characters facial expressions look like they are forcing themselves by not laughing haha
Haha, what a great video. You know what I usually do when I see such a great video? I enjoy myself some fresh Cup Noodles™. They are made with only the best ingredients and are so tasty. You should really try them if you haven't yet!
Square's revamped ideas for the summons in the FFVII and VIII Remakes: Leviathan pops out from a bottle of Evian water. Ramuh charges a Duracell battery and throws it at the enemy, which then gets electrocuted by razing lightning bolts. Odin uses a Ginsu-brand cleaver to perform Zantetsuken!
I remember reading somewhere that the actors recorded two different takes of these scenes. One that was sincere and one where they subtly satirized the blatant product placement by hamming it up. You can probably guess which one the dub's directors went with... XD
100 Reasons why Final Fantasy XV needs a second chance, to give us that Cup Noodles Nirvana, especially the curry flavor and put some sliced sharp cheddar cheese, parmesan cheese, any meat egg or shrimp, and it’ll be the best goddamn Cup Noodle or your life!
LOL this is hilarious, so in that universe if you prefer Campbell soups over Nissin products that means you are in the enemy side? of the heroes or they like Campbell as well? Now the big question is if someday we are going to have a KFC product placement and we will have to hunt down or breed the perfect Chocobo?
So THAT'S the reason for the war! Nevermind resources, magic, or the secrets of the Ring of the Lucii. Clearly during a diplomatic meeting, the Niflheim ambassador was served Cup Noodles for lunch, and he asked for some Campbell's Soup On The Go instead.
0:55 Gladio has the face expression like he is actually standing on top of the Leviathan, that is slowly gliding through the ocean surface in the sunset.
Somethin' dawned on me when I was on my own: any food you make tastes better when you use good ingredients, right? Then, If you take something already delicious like Cup Noodles and add in the finest, freshest ingredients, what do you get? The ultimate flavor experience! So I ask you, Noct: what's your favorite ingredient? That's what I'm talkin' about. Minced Meat is the key to every perfect cup of noodles. But why stop there? I say we outdo the ordinary. Find ourselves some REAL good meat that'll surpass perfection! All that's left is to make our noodle dream a reality. First up, the ingredients.

This is the first game in awhile where I feel dialogue a FF game is natural... and then THIS fuckin' mission shows up.
lol yeah I noticed something was up when they sounded like a commercial.
This was very tongue in cheek. I loved it! Did you see the Cup Noodle XV commercial? lol
Seriously, go look up Cup Noodle XV, they went full cheeseball with the product placement that makes this at least 4x better
look like the voice actor don't want to get serious on something ridiculous or nissin supplied a poorly written script.
Or they just didn't care when it came to the English translation and the localisers just decided they were going to have some fun with it.
Gotta pay for ten years of development somehow.
Gladiolus became a Cup Noodle spokesperson when he left the party.
LOL~
oh god ... if that's the DLC.... This mission is sponsored by Nissin.
I was going to give you a like but I felt the current number fited just right a Gladio video.
Noctis: Why you leaving us Gladio?
Gladio: Yo I got sweet gig promoting Cup Noodles around the world. There's going be noddles and fine bitches everywhere. See you fuckers later.
Prompto: Son of a Bitch!
Well, he needed the money...
Even their in-game models look like they're about to burst out laughing.
Yeah
If you're gonna sell out, you might as well go 100% all in. This was the most memorable part of the game.
That's the funny thing, FFXV is such a rushed, generic mess of a game that the product placement is the best part about it
When I first saw this vid, I was sure that it was fan-made. Then I played the game
@@Jordan3DS the furthest thing from generic. I love it

This isnt a game.
This is art

Technically the regalia (if that's what you're referring to) isn't an Audi, but they did commission Audi to make a real life replica of it
On kingsglaive, Nocti's car is an audi, but driven by glauca.

Oh, that's nothing; the voice actor for Gladious, Chris Parson, did freaking Lil' Bush, voicing the title character. So of COURSE he took the piss on this.
It's not about the search for the cup- the noodle was inside us all along.
Ending to One Piece confirmed.
Noctis [ in a horny sounding voice ]: "I know I sure do. "
Best line in the game. xD
It sounds like he’s going to strangle someone.
squeenix actually dared to do this... no shame...
Shut the fuck up it's cool
dark zaku lol it's kinda cringey tho
dark zaku I agree it's cool as shit. I laughed till I cried at this. maybe if they did tons of it then it would be lame but this was hilarious and genius. seems like people either love or hate this I'm in the love camp. money makes the world go round and the classic ff games all had satire in them.
SQUARE ENIX ADVERTISES?
NO DIGNITY!
dark zaku Product placement is so cool dude!!
"I know I sure do"
Noct you sound like a kid forced to act in a commercial from the 90s
After playing Episode Gladiolus I still don’t know when the fuck he had this epiphany.
THE ULTIMATE FLAVOR EXPERIENCE
you know he wasnt promoting cup of noodles in the first portion of the game so nissin gave him that scar and told him if he didn't promote they'd finish the job.
Gilgamesh is the head of Cup Noodles?
I'm fucking dying
am I the only one who thinks Gladio's voice would be perfect for a truck commercial?
You can hear the pain in Noct's voice
"But why stop there?" That delivery is top-notch.
"perhaps we really can't improve upon perfection"
yeah, op.
I love how phoned in the acting is. You can tell that they are taking this very seriously lol.
This entire quest was just perfection. I love how blatent it was lmfao
Why did Noctis say "I know I sure do" like a horror villain lmao
Laugh so hard every time I play this quest. Gladio's enthusiasm and his voice is so great! And I live the FFXV cup noodles commercial they made to. That one caught me off guard lol
This was a very good summary of the questline, thank you for making it easy to digest.
Derrick Nice pun.
I went out and bought 20 cup noodles after this quest
That's it ! I've come up with a new NOOOODLEEEEEEEEEEES
Imagine the voice actors while doing this scene... Fuck me even the characters facial expressions look like they are forcing themselves by not laughing haha
It's so shameless I love it.
Lol this is called peak gaming
Haha, what a great video. You know what I usually do when I see such a great video? I enjoy myself some fresh Cup Noodles™. They are made with only the best ingredients and are so tasty. You should really try them if you haven't yet!
this is almost shameless
Almost? MGS 4 had more product placement all over, and it wasn't so in your face.
At least it wasn't the last bayformers movie. I still regret deciding to give that movie a try.
yes, almost. if it was shameless i would be laughing much harder than i do whenever i hear "the perfect blend of meat eggs and shrimp"
It is pretty shameless. But it's amusing at the same time. :)
@@DarthEquus this is tongue in cheek. Square Enix offices are across the street from Nissin HQ so a lot of people from both companies are friends.
I...honestly can not tell if this was supposed to be a joke or if it's an actual quest in game that you added stock images to.
it’s not a joke
It really is a freaking in game quest with another rant from him and everything.
There's even a Nissin cup noodle van in the city.
The only thing they added to this was the stock photos.
This game has reawakened my love for instant cup noodles.
My favorite part is how little a fuck they give about subtlety. I love product placement when it's so blatant it's hilarious.
This. This is why Cup Noodles was the picture I decided to take when Prompto let me keep one
"Gladiolus, what the fuck are you talking about?"
You can not imagine what my face looked like when I had to fight a giant fucking lobster for the “perfect cup of noodles.”
WTF!? This situation reminds me when in "Wayne's World 2" they made fun of ADS.
We livin'
The best cup of noodle memes into one...blessed!
0:16 THE ULTIMATE FLAVOR EXPERIENCE
Cup Noodles will go down in history as the Greatest Meme to come out of The Final Fantasy Franchise. Either this or Sephiroth ordering McDonald’s
Holy shit he uploaded
A E S T H E T I C C U P N O O D L E S カップヌードル M E M E
It wasn't about the Destination, it was about the cup noodles we made along the way
This whole quest made me look at cup noodle from a new perspective
That voice actor... Did they voice in Skyrim too? They sound like a nord.

And Shiva is at Haagen Daaz
Remember when Gladio mused about finding the ultimate flavor experience?
Cup Noodles remembers.
I remember reading somewhere that the actors recorded two different takes of these scenes. One that was sincere and one where they subtly satirized the blatant product placement by hamming it up. You can probably guess which one the dub's directors went with... XD

Гладиолус: "Ноктис!"
Ноктис: "Что?"
Гладиолус: "ДОШИРАК!"
Ноктис: "О ДА, ДЕТКА!"
And this is how I started to buy cup noodles in real life
LOL this is hilarious, so in that universe if you prefer Campbell soups over Nissin products that means you are in the enemy side? of the heroes or they like Campbell as well?
Now the big question is if someday we are going to have a KFC product placement and we will have to hunt down or breed the perfect Chocobo?
So THAT'S the reason for the war! Nevermind resources, magic, or the secrets of the Ring of the Lucii. Clearly during a diplomatic meeting, the Niflheim ambassador was served Cup Noodles for lunch, and he asked for some Campbell's Soup On The Go instead.
The music kills me, I died the first time I saw this
Don't underestimate this marketing ploy. I immediately bought 10 cup noodles after Episode Gladio and the numerous camp breaks.
This is amazing. 💕😎💞
i love how blatant this advertisement is.
Best edit of these scenes xD
GENIUS! I love it!
*points to Nongshim Shin Ramyun* Steady on, savages.
The edits make this video even better
This honestly made the game so much better for me
This did make me hungry for instant ramen, but I went out and bought a competing brand.
Love Gladio in this. I loose my shit EVERYTIME. But, -everytime- I see cup noodles, I start to laugh. I cannot unseen after this, you know?
This part is amazingly shameless and I love it!
It felt like your in anime in this game.
I hate how he is not even looking at Noctis but you the player lol
"I will never go to sleep again"
Careful product placement, strategically planned out in advance in collaboration with high profile business partners, for maximum profits.
his ass was smiling cause he know he boutta cut that check😭
1:11 Blend of M E A T, E G G & S H R I M P.
I don't think the people who did this ad placement knew what subtle meant.
Ohhhhh, NOW I get that Nerf Now strip!
The. Ultimate. Flavor. *EXPERIENCE!*
0:55 Gladio has the face expression like he is actually standing on top of the Leviathan, that is slowly gliding through the ocean surface in the sunset.
I dont know why but I feel like having a cup of noodles....
My favourite ingredient is the friends we made along the way!

He risked the life of the prince, making him fight a Behemot...for a cup of noodles ahahah
it's the ultimate flavor experience
I am still above 70 cups of noodles in my inventory
It will be forever
(looks at camera and smiles)
Best commercial for cup noodles
English localisation team meeting:
Director:Alright now for the Perfect Cup noodles side-quest, any idea what we could do?
Gladio: Well...
They made the right choice picking Gladius for this ad
Perhaps we cannot improve on perfection.
sora/goofy/donald : did someone said *I N G R E D I E N T S*
You win this time, blatantly obvious product placement. You win this time.
mussels is a good topings for spicy flavored noodles
This is like something from cromartie high school...
Cup Noodles? Real subtle Guys, real subtle.
I fucking [REDACTED] *edit: "loved" this mission so much
Honestly it's not half bad i tried mixing Shrimp and chicken bits to Nissin Cup noodles And damnd its good plus mix that with rice :)
hahaha Have so funny, I love this game!! hahaha!! ^0^
