What did you think of it?
I was really surprised, made the wait for the game even harder
Also why did best girl have to die?!

Mediocre
Bad cuts

>Also why did best girl have to die?!
So you'd feel compelled to post about it. Personally I liked it. Lots of flaws but still really enjoyable. I think as a prologue to a video game it's quite something. My problem with it, as with the anime, is that the game won't have the same investment in the story or characters.

>tfw gonna wait for the scorpio version

fuk

It was alright as an intro to the game, but not very good as just a movie.

>Also why did best girl have to die?!
That was really weird.

>is that the game won't have the same investment in the story or characters.

Are you joking? The game will have far more investment on both fronts.

I wish they explained the magic a bit more then not at all. Like was were they able to keep using magic even though the crystal had already been stolen? Why was the king unable to 'command the old wall' when it seems all you needed to do was activate them?

Complete nonsensical schlock. Just a rushed 2 hour ad for the game. It deserved to be panned.

>The game will have far more investment on both fronts

If the anime and move didn't I highly doubt the game will.

Both of those are teaser's to get you into the game, the anime on the character front and the movie on the action front.

She has a round face and a big nose

Looks like a chubby boy

Where do I watch if I don't want to pay for it?

>best girl
>that horrific English dub
Actually glad she died early on so I didn't have to suffer through her voice for the rest of the movie desu.

>Like was were they able to keep using magic even though the crystal had already been stolen?
It wasn't destroyed so it still worked.
>Why was the king unable to 'command the old wall' when it seems all you needed to do was activate them?
He was getting old and the new wall was already doing a number on him.

op here
watched it it german dub, was bretty good

>He was getting old and the new wall was already doing a number on him.

But nyx, a guy why isn't even royal blood just snapped his fingers and they came to life on autopilot. I also wish they got into what the old wall actually was.

Loved it. Ultra pissed about all the betrayal though. That's my pet peeve. It didn't happen to me or anything but I've always been pissed to see it regardless.

I'm actually pretty hyped about FFXV now but I'm shit out of luck until they announce a PC version.

She looks like a clone of Rebecca Black tbph

Perfect litmus test into showing how fucking low peoples taste can get.

This shit is Treasure Island tier awful.

Hey FF15fags, what's with the images of older, non fuccboi Noctis floating around?
I'm out of the loop. That from the movie or is there a time skip in the game that will allow me to not have to play as a power bottom gothboi?

The story in the game spans 10 years.

That's because he tried to reason with them unlike Ravus. Even then Regis had to convince them to lend Nyx their powers.

I took it as it's a strain to activate and maintain but nyx was younger and so the strain was no big deal to him.

The old wall was simply another name for the previous protection of the city which probably worked fine until Siege weapons became a thing thus the new wall was created. This is shown by the fact that the old wall was able to destroy invaders but at the cost of high damage to the city.

This is all a guess though. I have no evidence for my conclusions.

Didn't know that they had it in Arabian?

Treasure Island was awesome you mong.

Nothing memorable, the Brotherhood anime in the other hand is quite good after the first episode, I actually like the characters now, even that little fag Prompto.

>KINSGLAIVS THREAD
literally who

cant find a non english dub version

I watched it when I was a little bit tired but I thought it was mostly bad with a few good scenes, Advent children was better because character motivations & action scenes were easier to follow. I'm still highly excited for FFXV and I'm sure I'll rewatch the movie again before the game comes out..

If you say how, but they both felt incredibly hollow.

>Also why did best girl have to die?!
This. It was the only reason i cared about the movie and even the game.
Its like japs still think ppl want generic anime princess.

Final Fantasy XV is gays only.

>both felt incredibly hollow

The anime is literally pure character interaction, growth and background; there's nothing hollow about it.

tell us all your favourite movie then?

Except in how poorly it's executed.

The anime is cheap and rushed.

>is there a time skip in the game that will allow me to not have to play as a power bottom gothboi?
Are you living under the rock? Whole plot were leaked long time ago. Yes, there is a timeskip and you get to play as old Noctis, but just at the end of the game.

give me an example.

All we know about Prompto is he used to be fat, and the fact Luna begs is to be Noctis' friend is fucking pathetic. Pointless episode.

We already knew Gladio used to train him so that entire episode was pointless.

We already knew Ignis was his manslave, so that episode too was pointless.

okay shill

you see their relationships with noctis and how they change and grow. How prompto gained the self confidence to be the princes friend, how gladio's opinion changed from a spoiled prince to someone who could make a good king some day, how ignis gains more understanding of nocti's powerlessness seeing his father weaken and their friendship grows as a result.

I'm sorry but if you didn't get that at a minimum maybe you just have autism?

>Lots of flaws but still really enjoyable.
codeword for
>it was shit but I liked it anyway

Pretty much everyone's opinion on anything XV related. That's how you know it's shit.

>autism

Cool, throwing personal insults because you've got nothing else.

There's nothing significant about what you've described. It's very basic and those tropes have been done to death.

That was so fucking dumb. If Regis can convince them to help Nyx, why the fuck doesn't Regis just take over and save everyone? This story is so retarded.

lmao you make it sound like it's so deep when it's literally nothing

what did you expect

>being this much of a MUH GRAFFIX fag

You probably don't actually like video games.

I didn't expect much and was still dissapointed.

If you don't like the characters that's fine, but you can't then say that the show is hollow/cheap/rushed just because you personally dislike it. To people who like the characters and their interaction, the anime provided good background and character development.

People who liked that 15 minute trash just have terrible taste, and they think it's good because they've never actually watched a good film in their life.

Whatever happened to Prompto being some sort of outlaw badass who was a bad influence on Noctis?

That would've actually been interesting.

>you see them grow

No, you don't. You're given their dumb motivations and in the span of the entire episode they go from point a to point b without much in between.

It's very simple and easy to understand. but it's not very interesting or engaging. It's like if you read

>glad hates noctis
>but then noct saves iris
>now they are friends

You'd get the same lack of emotional investment as watching the episodes themselves.

>growth
>grow

Never happened.

The anime really was made for simpletons. Same could be said for the movie actually.

>People who liked that 15 minute trash just have terrible taste, and they think it's good because they've never actually watched a good film in their life.

ok...? is this supposed to be an argument?

>outlaw badass

I don't want to say you're just an edgy kid but come on.

>No, you don't.

You just literally explained how a character grew. Keep in mind it's a 15 minute episode, it's just a snapshot of the past.

>You'd get the same lack of emotional investment as watching the episodes themselves.

This is my point, you're not emotionally invested in what's going on so you don't care. As someone who is emotionally interested the episode was great for me.

>it's just your opinion man

No, it's not. I don't give a fuck about these characters because they are horribly written and have the depth of a teaspoon. I definitely have personal opinions on the personality's the writers are going for but that has nothing to do with the lack of quality in their presentation.

I disliked how the screen kept fading to black like it was a made for TV movie, but overall I enjoyed it. I was expecting bad things from all the threads on Sup Forums, but once again Sup Forums is retarded as always.

>I don't want to say you're just an edgy kid but come on.

Are you a fucking retard?

I remember reading years ago that his background was that he was a criminal of some sort, and Gladio/Ignis didn't really like him hanging around. That would've been great compared to, "he used to be some fat kid and now they're BFFs".

Fucking kill yourself you shill faggot.

>You just literally explained how a character grew

That's not growth, retard.

>This is my point, you're not emotionally invested in what's going on so you don't care. As someone who is emotionally interested the episode was great for me.

>emotionally invested

Don't make me fucking laugh.

Sounds like you're financially invested.

Hyped. As long as it on PC.

>but you can't then say that the show is hollow/cheap/rushed just because you personally dislike it

Yes he can. That's what opinions are you fucking idiot.

>You just literally explained how a character grew

Yea, I explained it. You should be shown character growth, not told about it.

>Keep in mind it's a 15 minute episode, it's just a snapshot of the past.

Yea, it was rushed and cheap. That's not an excuse, it's an explanation as to why it's so ass.

>you're not emotionally invested

because there's nothing to get emotionally invested over

>because they are horribly written and have the depth of a teaspoon.

I keep asking for an example but you just keep repeating that you dislike them. If we take Noctis for example, we have seen plenty of depth in the anime alone, from how he deals with the stress of his father weakening, to helping iris in the castle as well as little quirks like always sleeping and not eating vegetables.

Explain why he is 'horribly written' rather then you just don't like him for whatever reason.

>You should be shown character growth, not told about it.

yeah, that's why you watch the anime...

>oh no my dad is old and I have to be king some day boohoo
>oh let me save this fucking retarded girl
>wow I'm such a deep well written character

>always sleeping and not eating vegetables
>Explain why he is 'horribly written'

I didn't expect it to be this much of a Type-0 clone.
It looks like the Versus story truly is dead and buried.

Guys, stop arguing with XV-kun.

He'll never admit the anime is trash.

How is that a code-word. Are you only able to enjoy things that are flawless?

crowe should have been swapped with Nyx into the main character role. 1000x better movie

>that's why you watch the anime...

For the shallow as fuck backstory and zero growth?

You get that his problem with becoming king is that his father has to die first, and he loves his dad. So becoming king to him means losing someone he loves.

The king's power doesn't come from the Crystal. He's just using the Crystal as an energy source to power the new wall.

His power comes from being part of the royal family and being linked to the ring of the Lucii.
Noctis still has his magic even though he doesn't get the ring until later in the game.

>from how he deals with the stress of his father weakening

It's cheap melodrama. We're not eased into it at all and it's thrown into your face like every other "serious" thing in XV.

>to helping iris in the castle

The adults in the castle are so incompetent they let two kids get lost for an entire day. So well-written. Not contrived at all.

>as well as little quirks like always sleeping and not eating vegetables

If you think that anime-tier "le quirky XD" shit is good writing or realistic it certainly explains a lot.

so deep
never been done before

>>Sup Forums
>>Sup Forums

If the PS4 Pro version is decent I see no reason to wait 2 more years for PC.

if you dont wanna watch it then dont watch it, kid

Yea.... no.

Degenerate waifu-fags ought to publicly executed.

So a story can only be deep if it's original?

Is that Rebecca black?

Are you every trying you braindead mongoloid?

Here have a pity (you)

There's a huge difference between being slightly flawed and absolute shit. XV's story and "characterization" are the latter.

It can only be good if it is, and if it isn't it should be executed well. Something it isn't in the anime.

XV-kun pulling out his cellphone for maximum damage control.

I will watch it. and I will point out it's many flaws. Deal with it shill.

makes sense, as that's how long it took them to make the damn game

It's only interesting if it's original. and if it's not, then it should atleast be well-written. XV is neither.

I like how you have zero counter-argument so you're just pelting insults.

Classic. Just about what I expect from someone who actually holds this garbage anime is such high regard.

Then you must find almost all stories disappointing then.

I have watched it, and I'm telling you why it's garbage. Now you're just extremely assmad because you feel a duty to shill this two dollar anime for some fucked reason.

user, please dont argue with retards, you're too smart for that.

No, he just has standards. Something you clearly lack.

>if you don't like this 15 minute anime trash that means you don't like any story

What terrible logic.

>thinking XV-kun uses logic

Found your problem.

oh XV-kun this is just getting pathetic

Whats with people creating their own strawmans in place of an actual argument?

Shits not even worth of a (You)

>shill something that free to watch
???

You're trying to shill it as positive because you're shilling FFXV.

I'm looking forward to the game, but at least I can admit the anime is trash.

No, if you can only enjoy original stories or unoriginal ones that are well told, and you live in this world, then there can't be a whole lot you have to enjoy.

I said that it was flawed but I enjoyed it. I have standards but I can also appreciate things for what they are.

It's a movie and an anime that serve as the marketing for a game. That's all they are, and as that they are enjoyable.

>this false dichotomy and backpedaling

It was way better than Advent Children. Far more detailed, better script, better direction, better action sequences, more intriguing plot, and with dialogue and exposition that actually showed SOME character depth.

(and better Music, that bullshit electric guitar Japan loves adding to everything ruined One Winged Angel along with everything else Sephiroth related)

Honestly, Noctis is now the least exciting character. His Father, Nyx, and Princess Useless are far more endearing or interesting. I'm not sure creating the Anime Squad will do much for Noctis's character development, he seems incredibly flat.

The only part that bothered me is the too-long Audi Sequence, and the Beats by Dre advertisement. Out of all the sponsorship shit, just seeing the Beats logo made me eyeroll.

>and as that they are enjoyable

To you.

>It was way better than Advent Children.
stopped reading there, I bet you havent even watched Complete
