Come to think of it, it's freaking weird they decided this 1 character isn't

Does this mean Iris and Aranea will be playable? Because if so me likey.
Everyone.
I suspect after these cutscenes are in you'll still be confused.
Such a bizarre stretch goal. They should just give the party more clothes.

FINAL FANTASY XV - EPISODE ONLINE
ULTROS!
People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.
The story isn't the problem. To you it might, but to others the major issue of the story was that it's lacking.
And it seems like it's not only Ravus they're expanding on only based on the latter translation.

Chapter 13's problem wasn't (just) the ring. The bigger issues is that it could have been a fourth of the length and been more effective. Hell, make it half the length if they don't feel comfortable tossing out that much. I love XV and liked the idea behind chapter 13, but Jesus it was terrible in execution.
Honestly I'm not sure if adding in more cutscenes will fix anything. They would only really work if they're actual scenes where Noctis and the gang interact with those characters. The omnipotent narration scenes were the worst in the game and went against an otherwise clear narration standpoint of focusing solely on the main group and their discovery of everything going wrong.

All updates post-launch will be free. Where did you get the idea of 'paid' updates?
I mean for all we know, they could do it along with DLC episodes so maybe the first big mid-tern update releases along the DLC?
That'd be nifty.
I mean, Tabata is offering literally exactly what I asked for.

Oh god, im getting xenogears disc 2 flashbacks.....
It's not hard to fix the story
But would need 5 hours of cutscenes
Most of it
showing the Empire

Yes, i like what i´ve played so far, which is why i wanted to continue this weekend. But if they make the ending better and the overall story less confusing i´d rather wait. But this is probably gonna take months not 1 to 2 weeks. Fuck me. And Square.

I'm kind of curious.... will these long term goals make the game longer? I remember Tabata saying the story was just 40-50 hours if we do story only. I'm at 25 on chapter 13.... and I'm getting the feeling he lied. Was something NOT completed? Hell, I'm so tired of games that show so much promise *cough launch destiny cough*
Probably. The game isn't too subtle about where the character DLC will fit, so you'll probably want that already included.
It'll help for how unceremonious that character's arc is at least.

Create your own player charcter....
Sounds stupid but has potential if you can play with other players online and hunt

It's
20-25
And the only way they can make this longer is if they add 10 hours of cutscenes lol
So, I'm on chapter 5. Once I get to chapter
~9~
But once you beat the game you can still return and do everything right, or is there a point of no return?
That's a game where I actively wish they had done there what they're doing here.

Is this for real? Those changes are huge. Guess I'll quit playing, FFXV |OT2| Early Access
Do we know specifics? I only read it's about the other bros.
Nah, TLOP was dope pre-update.

its been so long but I still remember sitting there like..... WTF IS THIS!? lol
Online co-op is part of the Season Pass.
I don't believe the base game is properly designed for such a system. It's not IX or XIV where it's designed around multiple human beings playing a session together.
I believe it's five chunks of stuff.
- Ignis Episode
- Gladiolas Episode
- Prompto Episode
- Booster Pack
- "Expansion"
No idea what that last one is about...
Xenogears is the video game more deserving of a full-fledged remake than any other I have played, or will likely ever play.
My second favorite game. Used to be my fave, but FFVII somehow eclipsed it recently even though I first played both games near launch.

Holy shit if you are not at Chapter 13 just wait that shit out. It's terrible. Awful. More cutscenes too? I fucking hate square.
But if they fix the game, and make the ending
I'd play it through again.

less annoyingly ambiguous

Yes there's no point of no return,
by the open world is locked off at points. Chapter 9 is the last openish content before it goes linear for a stretch.

Wait. An Avatar system? I can make my own bro to bro it out with the bros!?
But in the case of XG it wasn't the lack of cutscenes in the second half, it was a lack of game content... lol. They would literally have to make 4+ new dungeons, add more enemies, have a bunch more events where you actually have to go around talking to people, which means more event triggers and optional NPC dialogue, etc. It's actually far easier to patch in cutscenes!

I'm sure the second half was meant to be like the first half.
Most likely for multiplayer.
I mean the way it was told
The way it was ripped apart into a movie, 4 anime episodes, in game radio, loadin screens, interruptable character conversations, and set ups for future DLC
Just seems like an impossible task to weave all that back into one robust story

This is more evidence it's selling poorly. Last ditch effort to save it from continuing to bomb everywhere saleswise. A move to re-energize interest and catch it before the holiday sales season ends.

Hey SE
what about that fully explorable Altissia that you hyped up? Will we be getting that too?
True.

Crazy! I'm almost at the end and on chapter 13 and I've found it fun, but that it's too long (the chapter). Whatever improvements they can make though are welcome.

Cool, I wasn't planning on buying the game til it dropped in price. Guess I can wait for the GOTY Edition that includes everything.
