FF XV is AMAZING - I loved it. (about a 40 hour play through for me)

I'm at 30h. Still not done with chapter 3 yet. I'd say it's one of the more meh Far Crys.

Chapter 8 is a better time to clean up... (you can fast travel at night at that point). 

I think I finished chapter 3 at around 14-15 hours. I spent a good 8 hours though on chapter 8, when I am pretty sure had I just done the story that chapter would have been 20 minutes tops. 

 

Minor spoilers-

Get yourself to at least level 45 or so before you trigger the event in chapter 8 (it tells you won't be able to return for some time, so you know when you are doing it). From that point on the story really gets good and it would have been broken up my enjoyment of it if I got stalled due to having to go back and sidequest to level up to beat something. 

Also you get a gold trophie for beating the final boss on normal(it is a hidden trophie), so don't turn it to easy mode to get by stuff. Make sure you can clear everything on normal. If you are up around level 50 it really should not be a problem. 

Good tips. I may just continue now as the mobs are getting a bit too tough for me currently. Level 40 mobs may be a bit too good for level 33 characters.

I need to get o my better fishing equipment anyway.

I still really hate it though. SE has put in some effort to make collecting things and doing side quests as annoying as possible.
