My take is wait for cheaper price, like some of the ones you can get currently for 30-40USD. Story wise it has huge gaps that need to be filled, and I feel that is what the paid DLC is for. 

I see, I see. I will also take this into consideration!

With that said, gameplay is fine (A bit easy) and the world is pretty nice. Characters aren't too bad either (as in I don't hate them), but some story I think ruins some of the reasonining behind characters.

There. We now have 90 critic reviews. Dunno if it will make it to 100, though.

How are the characters comparec to the XIII ones?

Much better, this is like black and white comparison. The characters in 13 in my eyes were awful.

Is FFXV worth getting? I have TLG, have been thinking about getting Bloodborne but I'm not sure about FFXV.

Bloodborne is better but get both.  Make sure you get bloodborne game of the year edition 



Around the Network

Ok so I got this game earlier this week because I traded in some stuff to Amazon. Since the game was on sale and it supported PS4Pro. Let me say, those are the only good things about Final Fantasy 15.

The game is boring, repetitive, limited (wasting the open world, which still has traversal limitations and no content or exploration outside of the dungeons for the main quests -that are also boring, empty and repetitive), and has irritating characters with a poorly written story that does not clearly explain what exactly is going on.

It fooled me with the open landscapes, but it eventually showed it's ugly head to be Final Fantasy 13 in disguise beneath the surface.

I quit. I give up. I am done with FF and wish this was the indeed the "Final" Fantasy. The game literally has nothing in common with the franchise's history outside of chocobo.

The dialogue is painful as the voice overs are sickening. Every time I hear that stupid redneck peckerwood accent from the limited NPCs the game has I want to slam my head into my tv to make it stop.

Really, how do you people still love this franchise. It has betrayed to years ago. The game is one overdrawn corridor with nothing but action set pieces, repetitive battles and no character development.

It is not an RPG at all. There are no choices, no different party members, no real side quests that actually are quests, no perks, no variety and no depth.

Hell you can't even summon as you could in the original FFvs13 concept that also let you use magic and FF15 has replaced magic with stupid elemental farming. Square Anus has released another stanker and I won't be burned again.

They should have kept the original team and concept from Versus 13. Instead of throwing FF15 in the trash like I did FF13, I will trade it back in to Amazon. Rant over.







Oh yeah...the music, world design and concept sucks too. A flying car? Really lol. Give me my airship instead. They spent .ost of the budget and time on driving and car customization which should have went to better RPG mechanics, features and world content for exploration.

Now I'm done!

Man they suck but I played more FF15 than FF13, which I literally threw in the trash lop no lie. That reminds me. Square claimed FF15 offered hours of gameplay. How? There is 0 content to explore and only bounty quests besides Chicobo racing outside of the main story. I am almost 10 hours in and most of my time has been driving from one location to the next, bounty hunting or running around through the empty world -yes it is empty with a capital E, as it is rare to even run into enemies WOW- with no locatins to discover or explore and no towns with NPCs smh. The characters are not even the worst thing about this game. Square freakin sucks man.



I've put more than 90 hours in it and I think I can plat it. Awesome game, much better than xiii, will give my impressions after I finish the adamantoise fight

How many of those hours were running/driving around with no exploration? The game is just FF13 with the illusion of an open world. I am curious as to what makes it better than FF13 to you?I Mean FF13 was garbage but FF15 is not a good game as an RPG or an action game. Overrall it has all the problems that FF13 had, but people will say anything is better because they like the franchise and wanted FF15 to be it's return to form. In the end it's didn't save the franchise IMO.

Honestly good luck, not the toughest monster, but can be time consuming, given 90 hours into the game, I think it might be cake walk for you. I did roughly around 60 hours mark.
