I thought they were supposed to look like sentai. The Japanese version got that right?

I can't believe you played long enough to get their levels that high.

Nah, they redesigned them to look more like Dautos' Solhiem armor, it makes a lot of sense

So they didn't even keep the fucking colours?

they decided to go with something in-universe instead of some sue-worthy sentai shlock. Wish you could use them without the shitty invincibility ability though. They're worthless

So they actually have a 24 hour cooldown? that's just retarded

Not him but you can get max lvl by chapter 3 or some shit.

Not terribly difficult. You can get to 99 easily as soon as you unlock Altissia just by doing quests with a minimum of grinding, saving up using the Nixperience Band, abusing Expericast magic, and then resting inside Altissia's suite for x3 EXP.

....is there a weekly hunt event going on that isn't cactaur spam?

The more important question is does that terrible Afrojack music still play?

They changed specifically because they didntvwant any legal troubles with power ranger.

they look familiar but I can't seem to place it

like from some shitty scifi movie

When/where do I sign up for the MP closed beta?

The Guyver?

They could've at least kept the colours.
FFXIV literally has the power ranger poses as emotes called black ranger pose, green ranger pose etc.

You don't, you get in by having the season pass.

that could be it. Hard to say, it's like 11:50 AM over here.

I'll ask /m/ tomorrow

That many people got a season pass, eh?

>random xv video in my yt recommdations after listening to the OST
>mfw xv-kun is in hte comments
I swear this guy never fuckng sleeps

>combos from ep duscae back
>choco-mog carnival back

What the fuck is going on

>combos from ep duscae back
wut

FFXIV literally has sentei armor from shows/movies from a legit cross over. But that's because they're professional and actually do their legal work

That thing from ep duscae when an enemy is vulnerable you and the squad can go ape on them via QTE commands

They didn't just do the legal work for it they even went and hired the artist on to design monsters and shit.

Those are offensively ugly. But it's no surprise given how shit almost all the clothing is in this game.

it's insanely easy to get 99 in XV

>it's insanely easy to get 99 in XV

can't you farm the turtle hunt with the ring?

>tfw XV will never have their shit together like XIV
>tfw MMOs are pointless
shit sucks

XIV is fun and enriching!

I wish they kept the colours. Now they just look like a weird mix of Crysis and Warframe

Looks kind of erotic.

should have at least have those yellow glowing lights be different so you could tell the 4 guys apart if you had them all in suits

It's an amazing game, but i can understand that people might not like the gameplay and that they have to pay for it monthly. Though the gameplay is better than most turn based FFs and it has some of the best bossfights in the series.What a shame

Chain attack reimplemented for some reason.

>You are blocked from following @Rurouni720 and viewing @Rurouni720's Tweets
Wut, i never even heard of that guy

the devs actually really liked the cross chains from ep. duscae and were trying desperately to get them reimplemented in the day 1 patch, but weren't able to because of a fuck ton of bugs it caused trying to do it last minute in a few days. Source: ffxv employee

Link attacks were stupid. I don't know why they brought them back.

>should have at least have those yellow glowing lights be different so you could tell the 4 guys apart if you had them all in suits

yeah. That is the one flaw with the thermal suits

you might of been put on some blacklist because you angered a SJW.

Also, when the hell did the team-up moves have a QTE to add more hits? That wasn't there when I last played XV (February)

Where are the fucking swimsuits, you hack?

Well one thing I can say for FFXV that I can't say so much for XIV is that FFXV, at least at some point in its development, tried to carve out its own unique place in the franchise whereas FFXIV is more than happy to ride off the nostalgia that previous entries have engendered in the fans.

FFXV ends with a running (flying) fight against Ardyn over the ruins of Insomnia.

FFXIV's current end game fight is against Exdeath. the game also rips models from FFXI/XII/XIII and just slaps them in there

FFXV isn't the product of laziness or anything, just incompetence. FFXIV aims for the the low bar and does its best to clear it by a fraction.

As for the Exosuit thing yeah, they old ones looked shit and so did these, but the legal troubles didn't come from the Japanese company who owns Power Rangers but the American one who never designed the suits or anything, just bought the rights to air it and cut it into pieces to make it look like it was made in America.

what you should really be asking is why Noctis' VXIII outfit isn't available yet. That shit's been done since like April 2016, and it even got found in the game's files on launch day

Well, Exdeath is optional content. The main story stuff in XIV isn't really that full of nostalgia or ff fanservice. Overall the story is very much it's own thing, just rather simple, but t has nice characters.
I mean you also fight summons and shit in XV and most monster designs are oldschool.

I always forget how weird the game looks with all the shadowless 2d gras sprites.
It looks amazing at times, but is overall so inconsistent it's weird.

Is it more black eveningwear garbage?

Witcher 3 has the grass issue too, its really really annoying. I get that its taxing for the consoles, but still
>not knowing versus
why are you here?

>brought cross chain attacks bacj
>but not all the cut attack and combo animations from Duscae 1.0 and earlier

Fucking explain this.

They're fucking idiots.

Is this game even close to finished yet?

So you just mean that ugly trashbag shit? Why would anyone want that?

No, Episode Ignis isn't out until December, and then Tabata is hoping to do a Season 2 with Ardyn and Luna dlc
trailer nostalgia

I hope not. I don't want them to stop adding shit to it while we wait for FF7R in 2020.

Even more agressive ambient occlusion would help, now it stil llooks like it just kinda floats.
While Horizon wasn't an amazing game overall man i wish XV would look as good. The image is clean, it has tons of vegetation with shadows and actual 3d models etc.

Not until all this is in the game and even then we will never get a good prolouge and the invasion and shit that would actually make me care for the city and Noctis' dad

One of the things that really fucks XV is the 4-5 man party. The AI isn't the best, but its still there. Their models are decent. Plus they have ram allocated for things like weapon switching and techs. Horizon and Witching having you be alone helps a lot resource wise

It looked much more natural and seemless in Duscae, here it's like they freeze in the last frames of each attacks' animation

Also that finisher is complete whack compared to Duscae's that had some cinematic flare to it at least.

FFXV Ultimate for early 2019 then?

>playable character Gentiana
how fucking stupid are they

Yeah probably around that time

>KH3 comes out before XV is finished
its like poetry

What's wrong with that?

If KH3 comes out in 2018, I'll buy the fucking special edition and all the DLC. It's not going to happen.

>how fucking stupid are they
>square enix

Man i really liked it better when you coud decide when to to link atacks and shit. Now it just randomly takes control away from you way too often

>60% of the game is missing
>fuck it, make Shiva a party member
>can you summon her while playing as her?
>who cares!

It'll be out by dec 2018. It was decently on schedule to be out dec 2017-march 2018 for a while and unlike Tabata they've been smart enough to really hold back on the date until its accurate

>KH3 coming out
>KH3 coming out finished

You sound upset, user.

>KH3 coming out finished
Here's the thing, most games are not "finished" or have things missing that were planned. KH3 won't be an exception. The difference with XV is that we saw and played stuff over the years that was taken out and the devs almost embrace it

They mean abrupt skips in the story and obviously unfinished worlds.

everything about ep.dus gameplay is better
>way way better UI
>spidy sense to counter attack instead of fuck huge QTE prompt all during every fight
>customizable combos like you're God Hand or something
>passive weapon abilities
>unique executable weapon techniques
>weapon techniques and armiger in addition to warping and phasing are tied to magic so that MP feels balanced and useful
>can't auto fully regen MP by point warping (which makes no fucking sense) instead you regen it faster by dealing damage, further balancing things
>party combos by choice instead of having your control taken away
>interact button for things like picking up items set to same button as warp, and warp made inactive outside of combat, so that the two functions never overlaped instead of jumping when you want to pick up stuff
probably way way more honestly. Tabata was a mistake and a nightmare. Not to mention we probably lost half the game from him making them redo all the combat and rebalance the entire game

Probably won't happen. There's a reason it will have less disney worlds this time around. Not like it really matters shit like atlantis, disney castle etc barely count as worlds

what a soothing bum

Yeah it's weird. I mean balancing gameplay and chaning some things here and their is fine, but they streamlined and almost redesigned the whole thing like a year before it went gold. You can tell the team couldn't keep up with all the feedback garbage, they just tried to make it work and said fuck it to any kind of gameplay balance. I almsot feel bad for them, you can tell from the early gameplay videos and duscae that they had great combat system in mind that was still very grounded instead of something where you can just teleport around every 2 seconds and MP management doesn't even matter anymore because warp points are OP. In Duscae they were more of a tool to get out of bad situations instead of abusing them t have infinite MP. Taking away passive and active weapon abilites was also a huge mistake. I loved that every weapon had a special thing with just a button press and that some "weaker" weapons were actually better because of their passive abilites like in KH2. Now it's just better stats and nothing else

They look cool though, based on Glauca's armor

saban threatened to sue SE so they made the designs closer to actual magitek armor in the game

Oh boy xv-kun woke up
Goodbye thread, it was fun while it lasted

>saban threatened to sue SE

Baseless rumor.

>make 4 dlc outfits and show them publicly
>retract them and speak nothing of them for 6 months
yeah

Couldn't they just ask them beforehand?
XIV also has some suff and even anime shit and that was never a problem

that's because XIV did actual mutual collaborations. XV team are idiots

The helmet shape and details on the suit look like Glauca's magitek armor.

>defending Saban
destructoid.com/crummy-power-rangers-saban-is-going-after-chroma-squad-278339.phtml
Not the 1st time they pull this shit

The xv stuff wasn't sentai though and parody of sentai is common in Japan even without saban interfering

it was just because the new movie was about to come out and the render they uploaded had similar colors

So like I said, it's a baseless rumor.

Guess people wanted those back in

probably easy enough since they had the assets

wtf i love saban now

>Playable Character: Aranea

This is literally the only right answer

Dragoons WW@?

I forgot that this joke of a game existed. Thanks for the good laughs lads.

You don't want to play as a literal goddess/summon?

This thread was kinda fun, but i can smell a huge post from xv-kun in the distance

Seriously though how does he know? Its like there is some sort of taboo on Final Fantasy XV and he just materializes into existence when it is brought up.

Uh no a lot of those things work exactly the same in the final game while they added manual weapon switching for combos instead of auto weapons with 1 hit each, plus added aerial combos. Weapons still have passive abilities and the techniques were moved to manual finishers/directional inputs in favor of putting party tech commands into the game.

There hasn't been a great Final Fantasy game in the past 10 years.

The series is no longer good. Just move the fuck on. FFXIII and FFXV are evidence of this. They don't know what they are doing anymore.

At this point even Neptunia is better.

SE literally said they were contacted by saban a day after they revealed the magitek exosuits, and they said they had to delay them because they had to change the design to avoid saban

I imagine that he's a NEET who's always on Sup Forums that clicks on any FFXV thread and lurks around to defend it.

He ven shows up in threads that have nothing to do with xv just for 1-2 post 300 posts in. How does he do it

Fuck off tripfag.

So why did they bring back the moogle carnaval again?
