    I just bought FFXV as a first time player. I went in with no bias or final fantasy experience and I'm absolutely loving this game. He said probably wasn't a game for first-time players but to be a first-time player I think this game is definitely worth a try. It's become one of my favorite games.
    Edit: Thank you everyone for having a comment to look back at and brighten my day.

      I have been playing since the first release on NES. I am amazed by how this new generation are traveling to these new worlds much the same way I did in my teens. This series will always hold a special place in my heart. No "surprise mechanics" included. Good job to the developers on a solid single player game.

    Japanese games might be weird, but they are unique, wild, and creative.
    they can be bad, the can be cheesy, they can be staright up ''what the fuck''
    but they will never, ever be boring.
    they will always feel alive, even the most poorly made Final Fantasy (for most it would be FFXIII) have some heart in it.
    western industries are full of games that are ''technically decent'', those Far Cry games and Assassin's Creed games and Mafia games, those games always get a solid score like 8/10, but they are never really interesting or memorable at all.
    I have played some Japanese games that I personally dislike, but even then they are still somewhat memorable to me,
    they never really make me want to hate it or dislike it.
    even the most boring Japanese game have something that you will remember well.
    Resident Evil 6 is a good example, it is one of the worst RE game I've played and yet the characters still makes me smile till this day, they are neither deep or well written, but they have heart. and that's all that matters.
    I would rather play a bad 5/10 Japanese game like Star Ocean 5 or FFXIII than another ''8/10'' Ubisoft open world game with no heart
    Japan, please never change

      you won't believe me anyways, but I still have to clarify.
      I do have a girlfriend, and we are engaged.
      and no, I am not a weeabo white kid.
      I am Asian, from Asia, maybe that's why I like Japanse game more than western games.
      I know in america they call Japanese game fans ''virgins'' or ''weebs'', but truth be told girls probably would rather be with them than some fat ass sitting on their ass watching football all day.
      seriously, you people are not nearly as cool as you think you are, your social life is a mess and you still have no girlfriend after college.

    this was my first FF game, I saw Kingslave and Brotherhood and I love everything about this game. The story and character relationships really make you feel like Noctis, at times you feel the same emotions as everyone else in the group. The antagonist is unpredictable, mysterious and a very good villan. Also chapter 13 feels like Resident Evil and it's great.

    I keep seeing people complaining about the summons and I don't understand why. Summons are not just giant pokemon in this game they are gods. No one would bother doing actual combat if you could simply summon a giant god to hurl an island at your enemies essentially board wiping the field. It's not like they don't exist, their purpose is to occasionally turn the tables on your enemies and get you out of a pinch when the situation is dire, that's how it should be. It just makes sense given the style of the game. If they weren't essentially a one hit kill and worked like summons of previous entries then i could understand being upset but they work well in the context of the game as it is

    • @ACmaniacos
      @ACmaniacos 7 лет назад +7

      Couldnt agree more. I would love 2 more usable summons tho, Ifrit and Bahamut being usable by the player. Ending was perfect for me. made me tear up a bit and actually feel proud of what Noctis did to save the world and sad at the same time due to the final cutscene. Truly great game

    • @vatothabeast
      @vatothabeast 7 лет назад +1

      Dys I've started hitting the main story hard but there's so many distractions. I'm entertained just driving the regalia around and just witnessing the beauty of the world. When you come out of that tunnel going towards the volcano and the first thing you see is that breathtaking canyon with the rock arches bridging the gap, absolutely amazing. I hope bahamut and ifrit become summonable as well. I really like bahamut's dragoon design

    "It's going to be harder for people who've never played any final fantasy game"
    Strong disagree,
    this is my first final fantasy game I tried and I loved it. And even though I have heard how amazing other games are, I'll never try them because their playstyle is just not one i like (PERSONAL PREFERENCE, STRONG EMPHASIS ON THIS). Not a fan of the turn based combat at all, which is the main turn off for me.
    FFXV solved that issue, gave me a hell of a good story (yes plot holes, yes makes no sense, yes some characters suck etc etc, Heard all that and idgaf). I will strongly be looking for other Final Fantasy games in future if they keep this type of gameplay. A more plot-hole-less story would be appreciated, but honestly, I am more than satisfied.

      Yes, because it's also made for first-timer, you do not need to play the previous title to understand anything because it its own game within the franchise. You do not need to play the games involving Lightning to understand XV cause it has nothing to do with her. Those who say first-timers will find it hard is rather idiotic.

      For any KH fans who are new to this, I'm waiting for KH3, too, and I fell in love with this game. It has a lot of similarities to the Kingdom Hearts franchise, but just feels a lot more real and organic. It will be easy for you to adjust to the configuration, but it does lack that certain "brilliance" that Kingdom Hearts has, since it's based on real life, rather than fantasy and different worlds. In all, I really like the feel of it and got into it really quickly! Not to mention, there's an open battle mode that lets you just wander into The Crown City and fight whatever comes at you for however long you want, so you can get used to how everything works without dying or depleting resources. I'd give it a try, if you haven't already!

Nothing wrong with that, i love them too. i just dont get how u can dislike it in FF7 or X etc (not the bad later FF games like 13), and like it in pokemon. To me its the exact same thing going on its just pokemion sprites instead of FF characters. attack, heal, sheild, run, etc its all the same basically. u just dont catch new ones u level up the characters u have ;p

    while i definitely will buy this, and play it, i am kinda tired of the thing going on where the main story is kinda short and there are loads of side quests to make up for it. many people like that, and i appreciate that the developers put so much effort into it, but personally i am that guy who plays and explores as long as the story continues, and once the story is over i stop playing.
    for me the story just feels like the very reason for your journy if you get what i mean. once the story is over you kinda start to question why you are still travelling around.
    i kinda miss those games where you had a story mode, and once that story was over, you're done with it. because back then many stories just seemed longer, and they had less plot holes. nowadays it feels like the devs stop worrying about a good story and just use the side quests and giant worlds as an excuse for it.

FF is just a fantasy story game set in similar worlds. I say that FFXV is exactly what an FF game is supposed to be. I've always imagined what it would be like to play final fantasy with great graphics as well as run around the world and explore. FFXV is exactly that. Plus it's fun

    Incredible game. Aside from a few quirky issues when going to pick items up or get into the car this game hits every possible final fantasy note for me. From cruising around listening to old FF music, teaming up in battle to do massive damage on an enemy, or just exploring the vast world, this game does virtually everything right. The combat is engaging which really helps propel me to continue on my journey no matter what the quest is. Even fishing is compelling. Additionally, taking pictures, fishing, cooking, and riding your chocobo are all worth doing. You are rewarded for doing these activities by unlocking perks as you level up each skill. 9/10 for me so far. It isn't perfect but it's really close.

      Lonnie Dearing so there's going to be a DLC for it do you like Morgan stories because they be honest when I beat the game I feel like there's nothing to do besides the do side quest and fight monsters like that's basically it and to me that's not fun at all I mean you're just wasting your time fighting monsters basically even though I do it admit the graphics are amazing but it's still boring I was thinking about getting my refund and spend my money on something else but I heard they're having a online so if they do I probably keep it and if they had DLC I'll probably even keep it more meaning him more interesting in it yet I haven't seen online yet

  • @LeyLynn
    @LeyLynn 7 лет назад +12

    I feel conflicted. This is my first FF game, although I actually have FF VI Advance that I picked up a couple months ago but never sat down to play it. However, a guy I know at work is a huge FF fan and actually asked me if I was getting FF 15 the day before it's release. I told him that I was planning on getting it however it would be my first official FF game. He looked at me completely disappointed asking how I've never played any of them before. He told me that he was getting at midnight via digital, and was really excited to play.
    I picked it up the next day and started playing later that day after work. I played basically for five hours straight, and much more the next day. I'm enjoying the game by taking my time, doing a bunch of sidequests, 19 hours in only on Chapter 3. Yet I do see how some people could probably not like it. Anyone that just does the story will be disappointed in how short it is(as far as jrpgs go), some sidequests can become repetitive, the weapons merch doesn't have a huge selection, and if your not a fan of timed events the combat might feel lack luster.
    Today at work I asked the guy whether he's enjoying FF 15 or not, and he flat out told me it's "garbage", "The game sucks", "Played only a couple hours and was seriously disappointed", "Can't believe I wasted $60". Even says that his brother who is an even bigger FF fan feels the same. I'm seeing all these reviews mostly giving it good scores, even watching fans of the series saying they enjoy 15. I know this is slightly different but I can't really say if it's good or bad when it's honestly my first FF game. I might be a bit over leveled in regards to the story missions but I'm finding little difficulty. In all honesty I've only encountered a Game Over once when I foolishly attempted the early Mine dungeon at Lv 15. Only to find the end boss in the 50's. I was like "seriously, all the enemies before are like 10-12, wtf!"

      Zionboy17 I think people will never be satisfied until they look at it from a beginners/unbiased perspective. I played the original (on iOS... didn't finish it.) and also played 10 (didn't finish due to technical issues.) Each game has its own quirk and charm. If you go into a new FF game expecting the same experience, then don't bother. The series is so stand-alone with its individual games and the variety of story/gameplay has to be why it is so widely taken as one of the most prolific RPG titles in history. Don't let veterans of the series get you down because they are stuck in the past. I am LOVING 15, btw. I'm taking it slow as well.

  • @Atelierwanwan
    @Atelierwanwan 7 лет назад +8

    I liked it though I had a fair few issues with it. Finished the entire thing in only 50 hours that includes all the side quests and probably 70% of the bounties. The main story is super short as most of that time I was running around looking for specific things, doing the side quests or in one instance walked away from it while I waited for day so I could take a single damn picture without having to climb a volcano all over again. They also brushed over or ignored an whole bunch of things including without spoiling a very interesting scene that doesn't get talked about, acknowledged of even actually occurs at all ever again and it looked so much more interesting than a bunch of the other stuff going on.
    Combat is fun but pretty broken in some aspects. Some enemies are just able to chain you too well. Best example is in a level 55 late game area which has you running through lots of small hallways. There are lightning bombs that grow super quickly and when they explode they spawn more. In the narrow hallways the camera fights you and you can't really get at them so before long the entire room is filled to the brim with them all exploding every ten seconds obliterating you. That being said even after all that I never actually game overed and I was playing on normal. The other thing about enemies is a large majority of them won't stagger from your attacks while at the same time will stagger you with every single hit. This becomes a huge problem in the same area I mentioned before as several of them would push you up into a corner and they attack so fast you can't effectively block, dodge, faze or retaliate in any way. In some of the rooms these enemies were also accompanied by the earlier mentioned bombs. I made it through but it was all just super frustrating.
    That leads me onto another thing. Your allies are USELESS! Except maybe Ignis. Prompto even though he is ranged is up getting his face eaten off and I must have used thousands of elixirs on him because he was dying every 10 seconds even at level 70 with all the health and vit boosters I could put on him, he also doesn't really do much damage. Gladio is kind of okay. His special moves dish out loads of damage and he will sometimes knock down a troublesome enemy but most of the time I see him he's just kind of standing around with his sword over his shoulder doing nothing. It's especially frustrating when I'm in the corner getting stun-locked by hobgoblins. When it comes to boss battles? Don't rely on them at all. In fact just ignore them entirely because they are more than useless.
    Magic is really fun to figure out and pretty powerful but I found myself using it less and less as the game went on because it just becomes less effective. There's also the fact there is no way to make your allies back off so you either don't use it or constantly hit your friends with it too (I chose the latter more often than not). Some spells are just more trouble than they are worth. Firaga specifically. It's nice and powerful but for a fairly long time after there's a load of fire on the ground that doesn't really affect the enemies other than slight burns but in really gets in your way. You can't walk through it because it will set you on fire and stagger you repeatedly until you move out of it so you are essentially making a section of the battlefield unusable for your team but the enemy can pass with only a minor burn. It's also annoying to hear and see your companions running into it over and over again like morons.
    Then there's dialogue. It's fine, mostly. I am tired of hearing my allies complain at me when I change my weapon to close to them but what annoys me most is hearing them bitch at me every time I swing my sword at an enemy and they happen to be in a 5 meter radius of said enemy. The walk around dialogue is kind of repetitive too but the biggest issue about those conversations is how many of them I missed, the special ones that don't seem to repeat later. This occurs when something else happens in the world like Imperial ships overhead. It will cut off whatever they were talking about whether it was banter or important story stuff to yell something like "Imperials above!" never to mentioned again.
    Finally the music/travel/fishing. You are going to be doing a lot of running around outside your car as well as a lot of sitting around awhile the car drives itself from place to place (even with Noctis at the wheel, you just hold the accelerate and have to manually brake and turn onto roads). It's nice to have all the older soundtracks but there's not nearly enough music and those can get pretty bland after awhile. Also after awhile you can buy and mp3 player to listen to music outside the car while you run around doing other stuff. Nice feature to a point. It stops playing your music for literally everything. This is especially annoying for things like fishing. Fishing is slow and dull so I thought if I could listen to the mp3 player while I do it it would liven things up. Nope. It turns off the moment you start and you cannot turn it on during fishing (unless there is a way I just didn't figure out). Also it doesn't work when battles start and while on a chococbo. I love that chocobo music so no big loss there but considering most of your time outside the car you will be on a chocobo, fishing or getting into repeated battles it makes the mp3 player practically pointless.
    Those are just my complains as I played through the whole thing. Despite all that I really enjoyed the game and will probably play it again many times over. Looking forward to the DLC content too.

    • @stephenallen5939
      @stephenallen5939 5 лет назад +3

      This is true. Many vets of the series don't care for this one because it is sooooooo different than what they are accustom to. It honestly feels and even looks like a different game. Which I guess can be either good or bad? As far as RPG'S go, I was drawn to Witcher 3 more than FF15 for the simple fact that it feels more like the old FF games with somewhat defined goals and quests to undertake.

      Agreed. As an OG gamer that's played literally since Final Fantasy 1, they've utterly gone off the rails and destroyed what was cool about story telling and gameplay. Excluding FFXI and XIV (the 2 online games)the last decent FF game was 12. (Now remastered as Zodiac Age). This reviewer sounds like he's a noob to the series in his early 20s and is saying what he thinks will sound right but doesn't actually know what he's talking about, mostly because he's failing at convincing anyone he's an actual veteran of the FF games.

      I like FF IV character set bit more, and also the story there is more satisfying (when happy ends were a thing).
      This said, I love FF XV too. And I started it with very low expectations, because of the hate feed I got about it. Bought it only because was on discount, but never regreted.
      Game does have flaws, but the team behind it put serious love in that game. How many trashy jrpgs are out there with dumb stories, unappealing characters(copy-paste from generic anime) and terrible gameplay that cost as much as FF XV, if not even more?
      Really, can't understand teh hate. Hope is only vocal minority. For me, this game is masterpiece.

      @Wulfsguy7039 Год назад +2

      @@yass3425 No, not really. While I do think the combat system could have been more well thought out, it is not just button mashing. Its moreso maneuvering. What kind of attack you do depends on the directing your moving. For example, with the great sword, you can do a slash from the left or right depending on what direction youre moving your guy and you can also do a charge up spin attack by holding the stick down and you can mess up and leave yourself open to the enemy with the wrong move. On top of that there is a parrying system and when you succeed you get to combo with one of your teammates. The combat system is really not as bad as people make it out to be.

    this was my first Final Fantasy game , and I've had it for like 4 days and I'm 18ish hours in, and I love it. never thought I'd play a Final Fantasy tbh, but a local game shop had it with no case for $8 so I figured why not . the combat system is alright, and the soundtrack is amazing. The game has a lot of customizable elements which I love.

      Ok so my brother has a PS3 and I have a PS4 and wanted to get into the KH (and FF) series, so I asked if I could borrow his. I beat KH1 and understand the story for RE:COM, but I had to return his PS3 back to him. I bought 2.5 later but haven't started it up yet, so I've been wondering whether I should buy the remasters for PS4 anyways and either not play the PS3 versions or if there is any merit to getting it again on PS4, or beg my brother until he lets me use his PS3 again and maybe disregard the PS4 editions (maybe getting it later on for replaying or something).
      Anyone able to help me in my time of need?

    First Final Fantasy since 7, love it to death. You go on an emotional up and down with these characters, and while I have to admit it's not always done well, it is there. certain characters you feel you should have a connection to, but don't. Others you didn't know you had a connection to until it's too late and you're thirteen boxes of tissues into your supply. Some dungeons are liniar and simple, and others are maze crazy. Prompto makes this game look like Pun Simulator 2016, and I hate myself for paying attention to him. Some story elements need more explaining, you find yourself search the web for life answers, and others give too much information without you caring. The regalia is by far the most life changing aspect of the game. you hate it, then you love it, then you miss it, then you don't understand anything about it. It might as well be its own character. Come and game nothing is the same and you just want to go back to the begining. The game also features the JRPG style New Game +, so you can run through again with a fighting chance. Overall I give it a 8.5/10, with a useless hope of an overhaul

      XV isn't like XIV, XIV isn't like XIII, XIII isn't like XII, XII isn't like XI and XI isn't like X. X is like most other Final fantasies from the main series though. And then you have the spin offs, my favorite happens to be the Tactics series.

      +John Sledge Well after FINAL FANTASY the games have been very stand alone so you really don't need to play any of them first unless you're playing the FF 10's where yeah play 10 then 10 2. Same goes for the 13's. play 13 1, 13 2, then 13 3. 1, (japanese 2), (japanese 3), 2/ japanese 4, (japanese 5), 3/japanese 6, 7, 8, 9, and 15 are unrelated to each other and just playing any of them by themselves is fine.

      I know this is long, but just hang in there with me for a few moments. Last December I was visiting with my sister and brother in law. he stated to me not to tell him ANYTHING about the new star wars that was coming out as he had purposely avoided every ad and trailer for it and wanted to go into the movie blind. He loved the movie, I found the movie to be a little dull as I had seen so many spoilers. I have now adapted his method of watching 0 trailers for a movie or game I want to play/watch. I cannot tell you how much more I have enjoyed some games/movies since I went incompletely blind. Might be something you could adopt in the future. Publishers/movie studio's trailers just give away to much now days.

    • @esnips123123
      @esnips123123 7 лет назад +23

      Why have a completely fleshed out story when you can leave chucks of it out and charge people for it as DLC? That's why the quality of older games were so good. The main focused back then was creating the best game not the best way to get the most money out of the game.

    • @Theshadowclaw3000
      @Theshadowclaw3000 7 лет назад +1

      esnips123123 da fuq how is that this game gets so much hate ? If it feels unfinished than maybe its because u didn't watch brotherhood or kingsglaive. And no this isn't just lazy storytelling because only the attack on lucis was cut of because of kingsglaive. I don't get it they worked 10 hard years, deleting and reinventing there game and the one thing the community says is: Its not like the other FF i don't like it, it has different kind of storytelling its not good enough for me. Me as a normal dude who has no idea of good game design can call this crab" u know at a battlefield or cod or even AC i could totally understand it because they try to do the same lame shit every year. But FF ? It is a different story every time and it has different story telling every time... And the ending ? It is so good and dramatic that its like one of the best endings ever. Just because it doesn't answer all question that are asked throughout the game. I don't get it... Why would they work 10 years and then say "fuck it... 10 years are enough lets get them this shitshow" it doesn't make any sense.

    • @esnips123123
      @esnips123123 7 лет назад +1

  • @jonathansmith8494
    @jonathansmith8494 7 лет назад +4

    So far this is one of the greatest ff games and rpgs I've ever played. It's cinematically and visually stunning. The game play is fun and the leveling system reminds me of an older ps1 and ps2 game I used to play which I can't for the life of me remember the name of it. It brings all the elements of older FF games together and is still fluid enough to do their own thing. I like the new fighting system it feels more realistic, I dislike wait mode however.
    The downfall is the vehicle system. I wish it was truly free roam or you could buy different vehicles or motorcycles. But over all it isn't bad.
    They really took their time on character development it feels like you truly get to know your characters.
    Worth the price tag.

    Always thought that the Final Fantasy games looked awesome (since the snes/nes) but couldn't grasp the turn based combat and much preferred games like Zelda or Elder Scrolls Oblivion/Skyrim.
    What's FFXV like and how does the combat work ?

      Not that great, the combat as an arpg is very basic. If I were to rate this based on combat alone I'd give it a 6/10(and this is me being generous). If you want to try out a jrpg that's real action based I'd recommend you to check out the Tales of series and the Ys series. And you might also want to keep an eye out for NieR:Automata, Tales of Berseria and Nioh. All of them are action based jrpgs coming out early next year.

    @pimpshiza 7 лет назад +5

    I like the game. It is new and different in many ways. One major downfall for me, however, is that I'm used to triple A titles having good to great spatial sound, making u feel further immersed in the world. Environment sound is super flat, too low in almost every case and from what I can tell... There is very little surround mixing that was done. Cars that drive by you in the world make near ZERO noise... By that I mean no woosh of wind, no tire noises during turns, no mechanical noises etc... It IS THE MOST IMMERSION BREAKING ASPECT OF THE GAME FOR ME.

    • @JayRab

      Every single triple A title in the past 10 years knows that sound is just as important as video quality, if not moreso. Like I said before, great game, just wished they took some hours from making Spam Masubi look real, so the open world audio was half as convincing.
