You can glitch it, when you fight Ardyn and get Armiger you can fight and break the game and somehow fly in a straight line and end up at the very top of the citadel
Ahmad Salem not talking about the infinite armiger glitch (which you can successfully do if you unpatch to 1.00) but you can end up stuck with invis walls t the top of the citadel when you fight Ardyn lol, pretty much useles
Apparently you're wrong about what you know about the plot. The sun still comes up every morning but is covered up by some sort of smoke that is made of the same particles as the demons. You learn about that by reading some pieces of paper on the floor in Hammerhead after it becomes a base for the hunters.
didn't they already say this game still wasn't really ready? but because 2016 was the deadline, they had to come up with something quick aka corridors. besides, they'll most likely use the rest of these locations in the DLC episodes.
But by the time those DLCs are done everyone has already finished the game ages ago. They had 10 years to finish this and they patched it up with corridors. What makes you think they won't take another 5-8 years to replace those corridors with actual content? By that time we'd be all playing FFVII Remake Episode 2.
true, but it still gives something to look forward to for those still willing to still play the game. i mean, isn't that what all the post game content, new story cutscene patches and new game + patch was for? to tide everyone over until new stuff came out? don't quite a few game franchises do that now? but yes, it did take 10 years - but a lot changed and had to be edited throughout that time. from directors to characters to game engines, pretty messy so alot that they had planned.. didn't end up working out story wise or gameplay wise and thus, why the final product was still a mess. i'm not making excuses for them, but it is what it is and unfortunate for us we were left with a scraped together version it's just a shame they have to use DLC to fix what ideally should have been in the game already. but these new episodes coming will supposedly be released throughout the course of this year - shouldn't take too long if it's cut content.
Actually Final Fantasy XV development was really only 3 years, all the content from versus 13 was mostly trashed, when they switched directors and consoles they had to basically start from scratch.
FF Versus XIII was in development for 7 years then after the main director Nomura left to direct FF VII Remake Tabata took over and had FF Versus XIII scrapped entirely. Then they had to start over from scratch. The game then had its name changed from FF Versus XIII to FF XV and was in development from start to *"finish"* for only 3 years since the game had a contract and needed to be released in 2016 whether or not the game was finish which it isn't in the end. If it wasn't for that contract for the game to be released in 2016 FFXV would definitely have been delayed for another 2-3 years.
If they were to add in the missing parts as DLC it would most likely be that Prompto's DLC would open up Niflhiem, Gladiolus' DLC would open up more of Lucius, and Ignis' DLC would open up more of Altissia. Then again, its also very likely that these areas will never be used.
kiernan morehead That makes sense. Glad was somewhere in Lucis when he ditched us, Ignis was in Altissia when he wasn't with us to defend the city and Prompto was taken to the Imperial City.
They did show a bit of a screenshot for Gladio's episode that LOOKS like you're in the trench/ravine thingy by lestallum, so I wouldn't be surprised :D
+Izuru Kamufuhrer "we weren't even supposed to know about these areas" They teased them throughout the game though. That's like having FFXII without it's Imperial City or Rabanastre or any other towns, etc even though they talked about them or like FFVII without Nibelheim, Midgar, the Forgotten City, etc. Same goes for boss fights. It's like teasing Sephiroth or the Emperor from XIII and then killing them off off-screen. It's like in Zelda OoT/ALttP going to the Dark World, but only going to Ganon's castle or in Castlvania SotN about ready to explore the 2nd half of the regular castle, but then instead you are warped to the upside down castle already in a fight with Dracula. The least they could have done was put us in Vestallum with Cid,. Cindy, Cor, Iris, and Aranea. It'd be one thing if they didn't always bring them up in conversation or tease them in the anime/movie...
Demorios I did find it funny how the characters talked about taking the car on the boat but never drove it around until they had to escape the train haha
Yeah, that's weird. After the Leviathan fight I was like "OK, This game is sure big, let's explore a whole new world" and suddenly I finished the game LOL
everything would need to be edited - complete entire niflheim - add the roads to the map (it only shows train tracks) - make towns, secondary missions, etc
Y'know what would make this game a lot better? Some in-game prelude chapters that showed some of the characters' early lives and eventual departure from Insomnia. I know that the anime did this, but it would be nice to have some Insomnia gameplay. Plus, it would start the game on a more emotional note. Or, you could just make them optional chapters.
The game had no emotional build up to Luna's death, no backstory to Ardyn until the end of the game (no buildup), Iedolas Aldercapt was never shown in human form, Noct's dad died too early for anyone to give a shit about Noctis's angst, and Iris was a stronger love interest than Luna and showed more emotion than her until the last 4 chapters (LOL!!), hence the story is fucking pointless from the start without watching Kingsglaive AND the anime AND reading the prelude comic. There was no reason to even finish the story of FFXV if you watched the movie and anime. You'd know what was coming. The entire reason the story exists only opens up at the end of the game. It's the most unfulfilling adventure ever. Everyone knows you're going to be sacrificed to the gods for the light to return yet no one thinks of a better way and everyone goes along with it. As the player, unless you had a previous knowledge of the story, this entire game means jack shit to you until about Chapter 10. ALSO, Kingsglaive should've never existed if Versus XIII was finished. And I think Versus XIII was ALMOST finished but then Square thought it would be a better idea to stretch the game out into a short multi-media series for the sake of $$$$MONEY$$$$.
Do you realise that Insomnia alone is bigger than the whole gta 5 map, damn if SE would have left Tabata 2 more years of developement this game would be a masterpiece
Nomura* And no, it's not bigger than GTA5's map. The entire wrecked Insomnia is BARELY 1.5mi long compared to the 7/9 mi of GTAV. Yeah, if it wasn't wrecked, there would be 3+ miles of driving to get into Insomnia and it would be 3mi long. Keep in mind Lucis is only 10mi long and Insomnia is barely 1 mi long on the ingame map(the MAP map. Not the one you can walk on, the one you can look at from a menu.) (compared to surroundings).
@@youtuberobbedmeofmyname He means that the entire, mostly inaccessible area of Insomnia is bigger than gta 5, which it technically is, but not by much, and certainly doesn't matter if you can't even access it.
Nicholas Fury I was wondering what the music was when it was playing. Totally disregarding he didn't change the music... I'm in love with it. Might be my favorite off the soundtrack
Tika Dormin Actually if you examined the plot carefully, they did mention the origin of the long night. The sun comes up as usual everyday (i mean it's a planet, you can't expect the demons to blow the sun up) but the atmosphere is covered by some sort of smoke that is of same origin of demons. You can imagine it as a giant size demon which covers the entire sky of the globe (or most probably just the Lucis area, since by plot there are multiple other crystals in the entire world). By restoring The Power of Kings to the throne (imagine it as Dark Souls' fire linking) the wall which once repelled demons is re-built, thus repelling the smoke. By that sunlight can be seen from Lucis again.
Sun only temporarily banishes daemons. Plasmodium covered the skies so the sun rising didn't matter because the daemons were protecting themselves. If you noclip like he did, you're out of the skybox. Outside of the skybox, the environment is normal.
Man if only tabata was the director two years before he actually became the director... the game would have end up times better than it is. Not complaining I actually enjoyed the game a lot
the fact that these areas have so much of the collision data added shows that they where definitely cut from the final game and we where meant to get MUCH more areas to explore if it wasn't for the final rushed product, thanks for the video, going to try this later.
@@LeGaLiZeDOOMz No? All it means is they fully intended to have those areas be explored since adding collision takes time and money which is why game designers do not do it unless it's going to be used as a part of the game. Given the large amount of collision in these areas shown in the video that had to of taken a lot of time and effort and isn't something you do unless you fully intended for it to get used but obviously something happened behind the scenes that instead caused them to choose to block off the areas since they didn't have the time to add enemies, quests, and story to those areas.
I don't care what people say. Final Fantasy 15 is a great game, I had and still have lots of fun playing it and I am very excited to play the DLCs! Sure, the game turned out differently than expected in some aspects but it surely is not an incomplete game like some people claim.
Incarni Unknown it is actually very much, incomplete. The story's conclusion was atrocious, the camera in combat and collision detection is beyond terrible. The combat itself at times can be a mess and uninspired, the game was impeccably short compared to literally every other ff game, most characters hardly got any back story, the games challenge factor is almost non existent if you know what you're doing, chapter 13-15 is a linear broken mess, side quests are a chore and never exciting, and the games open world seems empty unless one happens to stumble upon a hidden secret that's pretty redundant to find. This game in my opinion isn't terrible nor does it suck, but saying it's finished is very cringeworthy, and almost laughable.
Dude, on PC the NVIDIA Ansel camera can noclip. I used a hack I downloaded to be able to use it at any time also. Man. Was I seeing some shit. ALL of Lucis is rendered when you're in Ravatogh or Lestallum with high poly LODs (which probably bring down performance), the cutscene looking at Insomnia after the mission with Cor, Insomnia has nothing behind the walls, Niflheim, Altissia, Angelgard, Gralea, every train station/stop all have their own instanced areas, so you can't travel between all of them freely, Gralea is inside a mountain according to noclipping, but Gralea is carved into the top of a mountain in the story, AND whenever you are in a cutscene where you're floating or talking to a god in the blue background place that's its own instanced area aswell.
Well it kind happened, prompto for the snowy areas, ignis for altisia, kinda sad the the noctis and lunafreya dlc got canceled the game is forever going to be incomplete
too bad cooperate trash rushed the release of this game cause fans were hyped as fuck. another one or two years of development and I guarantee this game could of been a Witcher 3 level of quality and immersion.
Could they add to this game until it reaches that level? I don't really play that many video games, so I don't know if that's been done before or if it's even possible. But like adding expansion packs so you can explore more areas.
Not a japanese company. Adding that stuff would be admitting fault and incompetency, even if it is more lucrative to bite the bullet and launch a masterpiece. As Michael said they feared fans losing interest by another delay, so they had to launch a cut game. And now chances of it being fully patched are none. This was almost a masterpiece...
The game had a contract that needed it to be released in 2016 whether or not the game was finished. If it wasn't for that contract the game would definitely have been delayed for another 2-3 years. Despite what most people say FFXV was only in development for 3 years not 10. FF versus XIII was in development for 7 years but after Nomura left to work on FFVII remake Tabata then took over and had Versus XIII scrapped completely then they had to start over from scratch. This is when the game had its name changed to FFXV.
yeah sure, lets give developers fucking 12 years because those incompetent fucks cant make a game in 10 years. wicther 3 was 3.5 years in development. 3.5 years.
I don't understand people. They keep complaining a lot to these greedy rich giant company, yet they keep buying their products as if they don't have any other option. There are a lot of poor trust worthy companies or entrepreneurs out there that desperately need our money.
Much better than never getting them at all imo. It's clear that this content wasn't cut for that purpose, but that they decided not to implement it and instead spend their development time on things they considered more important.
Everyone, remember that *GIGANTIC* map that showed the FF15 world and continents on it and showed the outlines of the gtaV and Wither 3 map outlines over it for comparison from a few yeas ago? Yeah... Fast forward to today and cry at the miniscule bit of that map the game takes place entirely in. and even less so the areas you can actually traverse.
Altisia map is pretty huge and we can explore like 30% of it -_- If you look closely theres even a fast travel icon (boat) near the palace but you cant travel there smh...
The game that could've been The Game of the Generation, its already 2018 and the game is officially dead the real ffxv with all this areas will never exist, it's depressing 😢
Great, ill get more areas for my grand 20 hour adventure by paying for DLC later. Thanks Square, thanks for screwing up this game so that i can pay later. Well......im not going to. Im literally not kidding guys, i refuse to pay for any DLC, any at all. Im not shelling out
Well it depends on the perspective, you can see the actual product compared to what it could have been - and one could argue that its not a good product . But compare it to other full price titles and its actually a great product. I think the problem are the high expectations rather than the game itself. Same as Metal Gear Solid 5, which was a great game too as a stand alone, personally I enjoy the game and will also try the DLC, but thats just me
It took me nearly 40 hours in to beat the entire story, and that was on top of several hours just doing side quests and the like. Ive been playing 10 straight through its story and still havent finished it. Im nearly at 90 hours. I thought this game would be just as long considering how long the wait was, how ambitious the vision was, and how much the trailers have misled me to believe in it so. Everything about the advertisements of this game suggested to me that this game was to be grand, a game changer, an epic story that would make me cry and get emotionally involved, and none of that happened. One scene after the first part of the credits was the only time i cried and cared. Thats not the game i was told i would be getting. They screwed up. No. im not wasting an extra 25 dollars for story content that shpuld have already been there, that was GOING to be in there! I have too much to save for. i invested 60 into this game already, ive made my dissapointing investment. DLC is for extra stuff that you wouldnt need to get a full experience of a game, just spiced up extra content. Story development? Actual emotional elements that was desperately needed? Hell no, you lost me Square. I dont even think it will deliver. They already had the story, they should have used it instead of focusing on graphics. I dont care if the whole fanbase kills me, im saying it, this game sucks. And nobody but Square should be blamed. Im backing out. You guys enjoy, but not me. Enough of half assing games, im speaking with my wallet
Man, insomnia and niflheim were both amazing places.... It's crazy to think how much we will, possibly, be able to explore when the dlc for it comes out. I just wish that all of that stuff was in the game day 1
I’m not very upset about the cut Altissia stuff what we COULD explore was already a lot, and the snowy Niflheim was in Episode Prompto. Also we’ll likely be able to explore more of Insomnia in Episode Ardyn, from what ive seen
I was kind of upset at first when I heard that there were cut locations, but seeing this makes me feel better. They were obviously cut for good reason. The rendering isn't finished or polished. Insomnia had what looked like cardboard cutouts for some buildings, and 2D regions. Nifleheim's terrain was supposed to be barren, yes, but the shading down on the ground shows that there was supposed to be more than shown here. They really just didn't finish these areas in time, so they cut them from the storyline, yet left the material in the game so that it could be finished later.
The map of this game is soo big but you can't play some of the areas. I wish they didn't trimmed the game off so they can release it. (you may able to via glitch)
I don't get why people keep saying, "this makes me sad, it should have been explorable!" This video is literally showing you that you CAN explore these places!
The Niflhiem one was patched though. And the Lucis one only lets you explore a bit of the bottom. With the Lucis one, you can't cross roads, and there's invisible walls everywhere, preventing you from gettin to the water, or going too far west. You can get to Liede if you follow the tunnel path to the east, but you either hit roads or walls, so you can't do much there either.
Temothy Homecillo this is a fucking incomplete game, it had the potential to be the best game ever, but they totally screwed up with the map, lore and boss fights (even my 2yo brother can do them, you just have to press ○)
its a shame really. I don't care if it was because of a contract, they should of worked out someway to delay the game further, this game clearly wasn't ready yet.
Let’s not forget this game began as a linear story driven experience and they slapped an open world because they received backslash from Final fantasy 13 for being like a tunnel
Lucis I Don't entirely mind cause we still got a HUGE amount of it, same with Altissia give or take. I just hope that Nifilhiem will be ecoplorable in DLC, and I'm almost 100 percent positive, because of the HUGE are they made, not to mention I believe they confirmed Insomnia being a DLC area, but I'm not too sure on that one
The fact that there's soooo much area that was cut just proves how much more the team was planning on doing with the game; if only they weren't rushed for release :(
Yeah it was. Spoilers: when you fight ardyn it had literally been night for, what, 10 years? Something like that. Weird how that breaks there, I wonder why.
ooh, I misunderstood what you meant at first. Yeah you're right, it's supposed to be all darkness. But I guess it's because you wandered out of the stage is all lol
"The sun still comes up every morning but is covered up by some sort of smoke that is made of the same particles as the demons. You learn about that by reading some pieces of paper on the floor in Hammerhead after it becomes a base for the hunters." - copy pasted from a dude in this video's comment section.
Whoa you can just straight up ditch Ardyn while flying around? XD And the sun still comes up after all, so I guess Noct didn't have to sacrifice himself after all.
cut content, but you can see the railroad passing through it...I think most of these areas are just a sort of background for the train section of the story.
god the altissia thing bugged me so bad, they showed like an entire map you could not traverse quite infuriating. and lol, noctis found the sun at 5:16 XD dont even gotta deal with ardyn !
they wanted to make this game feel like a road trip. i can see the roads. but where is the trip. isnt a road trip when you go in a car from city to city. or country to country? at least thats what i called a roadtrip. this game more felt like 4 guys doing shit thats not important to whats happening in the plot at all. they should not have cut all this content.
Roadtrips are also not going back and forth between areas. In a roadtrip, you kind of keep moving. In FFXV this was cut short a bit when you get to Lestallum and then go back and forth between it and a few places.
God if only they actually finished the game and put this in the base game with none of that dlc bullshit this could easily have been the elden ring of final fantasy
they were having trouble with disc space and deleted crucial cut scenes to fit it on the disc do you really think they would leave all these areas if they weren't going to use them I've already got my season pass haha
Russ Purf let me explain you why that's bullshit!☺️ not long time ago final fantasy Xlll had a set of 3 disc package they could probably do the same thing , but obviously it's the fans fault because!!! They didn't wanted to wait but sadly people see good graphics and they want to ejaculate without putting the dick not even close to the vagina !
I don't understand what you were trying to say bro no dis intended .It's publicly known though they had trouble with disc space that's why you had the crown update they would've removed all these areas otherwise it also serves as background for the train levels as well thinking about it. I'm just speculating anyway but I'd be very surprised if this content isn't added perhaps prompto dlc perhaps something on the multiplayer. I wish they would've held it back even longer if they needed the time imagine how amazing it would of been exactly as it was imagined
Ignis: Noct, you can't run away from your problems and responsibilities.
Noctis: *...BET?*
LMFAO
This sir, was excellent LOL
Almost sounds like it could be its separate game :D
I'm so bummed out that Insomnia isn't explorable. The city looks awesome. And they tease you in the game with that loading screen.
Anonymous cause insomnia was getting rekt by the niflheim during the entire ffxv
You can glitch it, when you fight Ardyn and get Armiger you can fight and break the game and somehow fly in a straight line and end up at the very top of the citadel

so insomnia is basically google earth

WTF? They made a swimming animation but we can not swim WTF?
Skadik Legames You can swim in the Story Mode. But i get your Point they are fucking retards.
The swimming animation is only used during the Leviathan battle.
actually you are only able at altissia if im not wrong. i tried at a few places at lucis and he doesnt swim. just fall
Yeah, only Altissia. They didn't add a special clipping for the water anywhere else. Unless you have a Choccobo.
Ignus can swim in his DLC
The most shocking part for me is Altissia where Noctis is fucking SWIMMING !!!
Noctis can swim during the Leviathan boss battle, but only then. So swimming sort of already existed in the game.
I think you are missing the point of my message :p
those gondolas are fucking annoying!!
croumir Well, noctis was not supposed to swim, ever. The animation of the leviathan fight glitches out in this part or something.
There is also an animation for chocobo swimming. Swimming was planned before release :)

by the time he got to insomnia Noct just said "Fuck this and fuck Ardyn, i'll start over elsewhere
Sketch of Google+ just fly away abandon everyone and live a new life!
some say that if you look up in the sky, you can still see prince noct flying away from his duties to the world
There are roads on Niflheim!!! That's why we brought Regalia with us!!! I really need the DLC for this now
Demorios I did find it funny how the characters talked about taking the car on the boat but never drove it around until they had to escape the train haha

Tika Dormin Actually if you examined the plot carefully, they did mention the origin of the long night. The sun comes up as usual everyday (i mean it's a planet, you can't expect the demons to blow the sun up) but the atmosphere is covered by some sort of smoke that is of same origin of demons. You can imagine it as a giant size demon which covers the entire sky of the globe (or most probably just the Lucis area, since by plot there are multiple other crystals in the entire world). By restoring The Power of Kings to the throne (imagine it as Dark Souls' fire linking) the wall which once repelled demons is re-built, thus repelling the smoke. By that sunlight can be seen from Lucis again.
at the final cutscene we can see sun rising right? i guess noctis its somewhere out of camera, and he moves through the trigger that makes that effect
pablo elguay noctis sacrificed himself so that the daemons would be banished
Sun only temporarily banishes daemons. Plasmodium covered the skies so the sun rising didn't matter because the daemons were protecting themselves. If you noclip like he did, you're out of the skybox. Outside of the skybox, the environment is normal.
Man if only tabata was the director two years before he actually became the director... the game would have end up times better than it is. Not complaining I actually enjoyed the game a lot
Hopefully they'll release a "Director's Cut" Game in a few years and it'll be the complete product!? That'd be amazing and I'd buy it.
just wait for FFXV Remake in 20+ years
I can't believe ardyn let you roam around his kingdom
Kinda sad how weak he is compared to any other boss lol
insomnia looks beautiful in the morning time
the fact that these areas have so much of the collision data added shows that they where definitely cut from the final game and we where meant to get MUCH more areas to explore if it wasn't for the final rushed product, thanks for the video, going to try this later.
So they need to remove those collision to make it a full finished game
@@LeGaLiZeDOOMz No? All it means is they fully intended to have those areas be explored since adding collision takes time and money which is why game designers do not do it unless it's going to be used as a part of the game. Given the large amount of collision in these areas shown in the video that had to of taken a lot of time and effort and isn't something you do unless you fully intended for it to get used but obviously something happened behind the scenes that instead caused them to choose to block off the areas since they didn't have the time to add enemies, quests, and story to those areas.
@@NewToCool74 a change of minds, it happens. The game is full anyway. They will add those maps in FFXV-2 if they want
@@LeGaLiZeDOOMz a bad change of mind when it causes a worse and less interesting product of content needing to PAY dlcs to have more story
I don't care what people say. Final Fantasy 15 is a great game, I had and still have lots of fun playing it and I am very excited to play the DLCs!
Sure, the game turned out differently than expected in some aspects but it surely is not an incomplete game like some people claim.
Incarni Unknown most of them are PC MASTER RACE RETARDS PEASANTS -- just do not give a fuck bro
Incarni Unknown it is actually very much, incomplete. The story's conclusion was atrocious, the camera in combat and collision detection is beyond terrible. The combat itself at times can be a mess and uninspired, the game was impeccably short compared to literally every other ff game, most characters hardly got any back story, the games challenge factor is almost non existent if you know what you're doing, chapter 13-15 is a linear broken mess, side quests are a chore and never exciting, and the games open world seems empty unless one happens to stumble upon a hidden secret that's pretty redundant to find. This game in my opinion isn't terrible nor does it suck, but saying it's finished is very cringeworthy, and almost laughable.
Incarni Unknown
For a city you're supposed to save, how come we never actually explored it until it was destroyed?
As a ffxv fan I have to say your coping so please shut the fuckk up
too much detail on some of those areas i smell DLC
Dude, on PC the NVIDIA Ansel camera can noclip. I used a hack I downloaded to be able to use it at any time also. Man. Was I seeing some shit. ALL of Lucis is rendered when you're in Ravatogh or Lestallum with high poly LODs (which probably bring down performance), the cutscene looking at Insomnia after the mission with Cor, Insomnia has nothing behind the walls, Niflheim, Altissia, Angelgard, Gralea, every train station/stop all have their own instanced areas, so you can't travel between all of them freely, Gralea is inside a mountain according to noclipping, but Gralea is carved into the top of a mountain in the story, AND whenever you are in a cutscene where you're floating or talking to a god in the blue background place that's its own instanced area aswell.
seems you knew all the time
Except that it didn't happen regardless of the demand.
Well it kind happened, prompto for the snowy areas, ignis for altisia, kinda sad the the noctis and lunafreya dlc got canceled the game is forever going to be incomplete
why would they cut Nifleheim out.... they must've worked very hard on it,
they had a contract, they need to release in 2016, so they cut everything out that wasnt finished completely so they could hold the deadline
Thank Square for at least releasing the game in 2016 and thank god i bought the Season Pass so that i can get the DLCs later
With this now i know that the game was worth waiting for ten years and if this areas are gonna be out as DLCs its definitely worth it
i dont think you need that dlc there is free dlc that they will add later you know
I guess with the engine they had, such area can be pretty much generated.
too bad cooperate trash rushed the release of this game cause fans were hyped as fuck. another one or two years of development and I guarantee this game could of been a Witcher 3 level of quality and immersion.
Could they add to this game until it reaches that level? I don't really play that many video games, so I don't know if that's been done before or if it's even possible. But like adding expansion packs so you can explore more areas.
Not a japanese company. Adding that stuff would be admitting fault and incompetency, even if it is more lucrative to bite the bullet and launch a masterpiece.
As Michael said they feared fans losing interest by another delay, so they had to launch a cut game. And now chances of it being fully patched are none. This was almost a masterpiece...
The game had a contract that needed it to be released in 2016 whether or not the game was finished. If it wasn't for that contract the game would definitely have been delayed for another 2-3 years. Despite what most people say FFXV was only in development for 3 years not 10. FF versus XIII was in development for 7 years but after Nomura left to work on FFVII remake Tabata then took over and had Versus XIII scrapped completely then they had to start over from scratch. This is when the game had its name changed to FFXV.
yeah sure, lets give developers fucking 12 years because those incompetent fucks cant make a game in 10 years.
wicther 3 was 3.5 years in development. 3.5 years.
I don't understand people. They keep complaining a lot to these greedy rich giant company, yet they keep buying their products as if they don't have any other option. There are a lot of poor trust worthy companies or entrepreneurs out there that desperately need our money.
I think we will get some of these areas in future DLCS.
Slan Thats how videogames works nowadays
Much better than never getting them at all imo. It's clear that this content wasn't cut for that purpose, but that they decided not to implement it and instead spend their development time on things they considered more important.
+Slan nobody said we had to pay for them
it's likely to be free dlc if anything if it was paided
That's fcked up even square knows that
ChillCaladbolg I'm pretty sure he was just saying it'd be fucked up if Square made us pay for the DLC.
***** Obviously... Why else would there be a season pass? I was just saying what the other guy meant.
Everyone, remember that *GIGANTIC* map that showed the FF15 world and continents on it and showed the outlines of the gtaV and Wither 3 map outlines over it for comparison from a few yeas ago?
Yeah...
Fast forward to today and cry at the miniscule bit of that map the game takes place entirely in. and even less so the areas you can actually traverse.
Really cool stuff. The part with Insomnia reminds me of the last 'dream state' in Inception. The city he and his wife built
Altisia map is pretty huge and we can explore like 30% of it -_- If you look closely theres even a fast travel icon (boat) near the palace but you cant travel there smh...
If all this map can add into FF XV as explorable areas, it will be so much awesome 🤔😭😭
The game that could've been The Game of the Generation, its already 2018 and the game is officially dead the real ffxv with all this areas will never exist, it's depressing 😢
Noctis while battling Ardyn: "Fuck this shit, I'm gonna explore Insomnia! Byeee!" :D
4:10 why do there faces look like that???
King Jae its the t virus
King Jae It was supposed to be the star plague, but got cut out
Altissians are daemonized
what passes me off is there is a swimming animation but it can't be used,open world my ass
madscientistshusta It's used in the leviathan fight for when you fall in the water. If you want to swim then get on a Chocobo haha
Oh my gosh nifelheim is HUGE.
I had no idea how large that actually was. No wonder it took so much time to load
I love this game! Haven't liked a ff game since my first one (ff7) I love the plot... but I need more story to fill the plot holes! Lol
I think most of this was just supposed to be background, but Insomnia definitely was.
Wow...that was what I expected,another big portion of map to explore...thank you SE...
"So tired when walking around places without human"
Great, ill get more areas for my grand 20 hour adventure by paying for DLC later. Thanks Square, thanks for screwing up this game so that i can pay later. Well......im not going to. Im literally not kidding guys, i refuse to pay for any DLC, any at all. Im not shelling out
Well it depends on the perspective, you can see the actual product compared to what it could have been - and one could argue that its not a good product . But compare it to other full price titles and its actually a great product. I think the problem are the high expectations rather than the game itself. Same as Metal Gear Solid 5, which was a great game too as a stand alone, personally I enjoy the game and will also try the DLC, but thats just me
Ok? No one cares, bye.
Joseph Franc if all you got out of this game was 20 hours your doing it wrong. I'm 60 hours in and still going strong.
MrWheelchairstud Barely 60 hours? kek i have a solid 61 hours pleb! :P
It took me nearly 40 hours in to beat the entire story, and that was on top of several hours just doing side quests and the like. Ive been playing 10 straight through its story and still havent finished it. Im nearly at 90 hours. I thought this game would be just as long considering how long the wait was, how ambitious the vision was, and how much the trailers have misled me to believe in it so. Everything about the advertisements of this game suggested to me that this game was to be grand, a game changer, an epic story that would make me cry and get emotionally involved, and none of that happened. One scene after the first part of the credits was the only time i cried and cared. Thats not the game i was told i would be getting. They screwed up. No. im not wasting an extra 25 dollars for story content that shpuld have already been there, that was GOING to be in there! I have too much to save for. i invested 60 into this game already, ive made my dissapointing investment. DLC is for extra stuff that you wouldnt need to get a full experience of a game, just spiced up extra content. Story development? Actual emotional elements that was desperately needed? Hell no, you lost me Square. I dont even think it will deliver. They already had the story, they should have used it instead of focusing on graphics. I dont care if the whole fanbase kills me, im saying it, this game sucks. And nobody but Square should be blamed. Im backing out. You guys enjoy, but not me. Enough of half assing games, im speaking with my wallet
Man, insomnia and niflheim were both amazing places.... It's crazy to think how much we will, possibly, be able to explore when the dlc for it comes out. I just wish that all of that stuff was in the game day 1
what a waste. look at all that empty graphics. They could've put so much in that map that had the train running through it.
Markiss Johnson you could only go to dungeons and trains in real life
Sir Jedsalot Real life is boundless. If only they could be a Final Fantasy Real Would Edition.
I’m not very upset about the cut Altissia stuff what we COULD explore was already a lot, and the snowy Niflheim was in Episode Prompto. Also we’ll likely be able to explore more of Insomnia in Episode Ardyn, from what ive seen
No I’m saying we already had access to a lot of Altissia, it’s not too bad that there was cut content.
So glad we might be able to explore Insomnia in Ardyn's episode next year.
I was kind of upset at first when I heard that there were cut locations, but seeing this makes me feel better. They were obviously cut for good reason. The rendering isn't finished or polished. Insomnia had what looked like cardboard cutouts for some buildings, and 2D regions. Nifleheim's terrain was supposed to be barren, yes, but the shading down on the ground shows that there was supposed to be more than shown here. They really just didn't finish these areas in time, so they cut them from the storyline, yet left the material in the game so that it could be finished later.
I think this FF had to be one of the most ambitious but thry cut so much we'll never know
All these locations are assets from the end game when it shows the light return to the world. Cool to see them up close.
10 YEARS IN THE MAKING ??? LOOL
Insomnia is a 2D texture nightmare.
What a way to start off a video, warp striking
The map of this game is soo big but you can't play some of the areas. I wish they didn't trimmed the game off so they can release it. (you may able to via glitch)
If they made a giant tech demo consisting of just Niflheim with no boundaries, I'd probably buy it. But DLC, you got me twisted.
I don't get why people keep saying, "this makes me sad, it should have been explorable!" This video is literally showing you that you CAN explore these places!
The Niflhiem one was patched though. And the Lucis one only lets you explore a bit of the bottom. With the Lucis one, you can't cross roads, and there's invisible walls everywhere, preventing you from gettin to the water, or going too far west. You can get to Liede if you follow the tunnel path to the east, but you either hit roads or walls, so you can't do much there either.
thank you! I've been wanting to do these for so long but all the videos of them never showed how to do it
That'll be $25 later on
Temothy Homecillo this is a fucking incomplete game, it had the potential to be the best game ever, but they totally screwed up with the map, lore and boss fights (even my 2yo brother can do them, you just have to press ○)
its the fans' fault. they didn't wanna wait anymore
why u gotta let him drop like that tho
Press B or Circle while near the ground, then quickly warp to reset fall damage.
Doesn't work anymore. PC version can't atleast. Fall damage is cumulative fall height instead of velocity or height alone. :(
@@lefthandrule638 not exactly. just warp once. before touching the ground. there will be no damage
Final boss fight: Brb, wanna. Check out mah city
Ardyn: Byyyyye Nocty
3:42 YOU CAN SWIM??!?!
Wow all that work from 2006 and we only got a fraction of it. Damn execs.
the snow area is where episode prompto takes place
I’d take an Episode Nyx so we could traverse insomnia and see more of the war with the Niffs.
I mean we got Crisis Core with Zack why not Nyx?!
Because SE said: Fuck you. You've already got the movie.
*The crown city but we only get to see it in a fucking movie.*
Wait…..
You can swim?!?!?!
its a shame really. I don't care if it was because of a contract, they should of worked out someway to delay the game further, this game clearly wasn't ready yet.
alienxmz It was the Contract. If it wasn't for that they could of had more time to finish this.
Jonathan Irizarry thank you and If they really had the time for it, they would have used it then
Let’s not forget this game began as a linear story driven experience and they slapped an open world because they received backslash from Final fantasy 13 for being like a tunnel
Not my problem
@@1chibanKasugashut up 😊
Lucis I Don't entirely mind cause we still got a HUGE amount of it, same with Altissia give or take. I just hope that Nifilhiem will be ecoplorable in DLC, and I'm almost 100 percent positive, because of the HUGE are they made, not to mention I believe they confirmed Insomnia being a DLC area, but I'm not too sure on that one
That snowy area of Niflheim is pretty much confirmed to be in Prompto's episode.
The fact that there's soooo much area that was cut just proves how much more the team was planning on doing with the game; if only they weren't rushed for release :(
Lol constant night they say for insomnia yet it is day
it's not literal mate
Yeah it was. Spoilers: when you fight ardyn it had literally been night for, what, 10 years? Something like that. Weird how that breaks there, I wonder why.
ooh, I misunderstood what you meant at first.
Yeah you're right, it's supposed to be all darkness.
But I guess it's because you wandered out of the stage is all lol
I guess they didn't bother programming eternal night for the final boss, not expecting you to fool around there that long
"The sun still comes up every morning but is covered up by some sort of smoke that is made of the same particles as the demons. You learn about that by reading some pieces of paper on the floor in Hammerhead after it becomes a base for the hunters." - copy pasted from a dude in this video's comment section.
this reminds me of forest gump where he runs for a very long time
more like omen trailer, what with different desert-like places and Noctis running alone.
4:10 that guy looks like Ignis by the end of the game
Regardless of anyone's opinions, this needs to be said. EVERY SINGLE GAME has cut content and cut areas. The End
1:57, must be shadow of the collossus
5:11 Funny how there is actually sunlight :D
I'm flashing back to Forrest Gump for some reason.
@5:20 Noct: This is the dark truth of our world...this entire time...my kingdom was a cardboard cutout city...?
Whoa you can just straight up ditch Ardyn while flying around? XD And the sun still comes up after all, so I guess Noct didn't have to sacrifice himself after all.
cut content, but you can see the railroad passing through it...I think most of these areas are just a sort of background for the train section of the story.
i have got a bad feeling from this point on every update will be called a dlc and we will have to pay for it.
hope the future dlc will make a whole different game if possible
just like what many people have said, they didn't have the time. of all the saddest words, if only
The cut content bothers me, but to me this is still a good game. I enjoyed the final product.
god the altissia thing bugged me so bad, they showed like an entire map you could not traverse quite infuriating. and lol, noctis found the sun at 5:16 XD dont even gotta deal with ardyn !
Nomura wanted that we could actually play in Insomnia and wanted that Noct is in Insomnia when they attack
it would be fun if they will include insomia as a playable world or a dlc or whatever
I wanted to take on Tenebrae 100% with my Regalia. 😖😔
4:17 OMFG Call the exorcist !!
I heard you could find Prompto on the tracks in Niflheim?! boi
**SIGH*
This only proves what I suspected after playing the game. There should have been so much more to Niflheim.
5:30 lol Insomnia has 2D buildings? On the other side I saw the OOB video of Gralea and the city is surprisingly well developed.
Niflheim amazing details
how is there sun shining in Lucis when u were fighting Ardyn?!?!?
i guess its a trigger for final cutscene. like -- we cant see noctis but he is moving through that trigger to make sunrise
they wanted to make this game feel like a road trip.
i can see the roads. but where is the trip. isnt a road trip when you go in a car from city to city. or country to country?
at least thats what i called a roadtrip.
this game more felt like 4 guys doing shit thats not important to whats happening in the plot at all.
they should not have cut all this content.
Isn't "doing shit that's not important" exactly what a roadtrip is? xD
SupahFly A road trip doesn't have to be country to country at all
Roadtrips are also not going back and forth between areas. In a roadtrip, you kind of keep moving. In FFXV this was cut short a bit when you get to Lestallum and then go back and forth between it and a few places.
This is so sad, could have been a much better game with these cut contents.
What the hell, first deathclaws, and now ghouls in Altissia?!
God if only they actually finished the game and put this in the base game with none of that dlc bullshit this could easily have been the elden ring of final fantasy
they were having trouble with disc space and deleted crucial cut scenes to fit it on the disc do you really think they would leave all these areas if they weren't going to use them I've already got my season pass haha
Russ Purf let me explain you why that's bullshit!☺️ not long time ago final fantasy Xlll had a set of 3 disc package they could probably do the same thing , but obviously it's the fans fault because!!! They didn't wanted to wait but sadly people see good graphics and they want to ejaculate without putting the dick not even close to the vagina !
I don't understand what you were trying to say bro no dis intended .It's publicly known though they had trouble with disc space that's why you had the crown update they would've removed all these areas otherwise it also serves as background for the train levels as well thinking about it. I'm just speculating anyway but I'd be very surprised if this content isn't added perhaps prompto dlc perhaps something on the multiplayer. I wish they would've held it back even longer if they needed the time imagine how amazing it would of been exactly as it was imagined
i know that would be awesome i cant wait to ignis story so we can know what happened to his eyes
Yeh I suppose I just presumed it was debris from the leviathan still it could well be that something did it to him like Gladiolus and Gilgamesh
so much potential. it hurts
Thanks to Noctic's teleport make it trought the glitch lol
i'm sure that we will fave to pay well to acess these areas in the future. such a shame
