No, he just lost the thing he wore over it.
oh wow i just noticed that lol
I have to say, I'm almost impressed: three hours in and I can't really complain about the handling of female characters, because THERE AREN'T ANY. I love Cindy, but she's basically a non-entity so far, and while the outfit remains unfortunate there haven't been any obnoxious camera pans either, so I'm torn. I want more of her 
. And Luna has been in one flashback, one speech on the radio where she sounded like she popped Xanax before taking it, and one scene where she doesn't say a single word. Is it sad that I was so insanely happy to meet Cocturana or whatever her name is at Galdin Quay, and Monica at the outpost? Because they may have been NPCs with basically no relevance to the story, but they were there! They spoke! I'm so starved for actual speaking female characters so far, let alone female characters speaking TO EACH OTHER. The sausage fest-ness begins to get really tiring after a while. Hopefully Iris will show up soon.

Don't miss out on the Luna optional cutscene in Chapter 4. Curious to hear what you have to say about it.I have to say, I'm almost impressed: three hours in and I can't really complain about the handling of female characters, because THERE AREN'T ANY.

Is it easy to miss?

Something I noticed about the Jdub is that they told the actors to actually sound older, in the english version everyone sounds as if they haven't aged a day. Also the Kingsglaive movie kinda established that when the king dies that the kingsglaive all lose the ability to summon weapons and such....so since the guys were outside fighting if they weren't dead already they definitely are now. :/
Kind of.

No. It is right there in the main path of the story. Just make sure to start it as it is represented as a ? icon on map.

I feel bad for your experience :/
Hopefully as the game continues the female characters become more...existing-ey
Although considering how Gentiana is a non entity for the most part despite being the guardian of the two bloodlines, its hard to say if any characters below her relevance get fair treatment.
So far its Luna and Gentiana as the main girls, Iris and Areana on the lower tier
did they ackildege yoko shinomuraa in the credits?
They don't use Noctis' power to fight. Else they could warp strike.
I don't see why they wouldn't. I read they didn't acknowledge Nomura besides as character designer, but I'm not sure since I was reading gaf during the credits
Literally finishes game then gets copyright hit. Lol gees i wonder if they just intentionally waited for him to finish as to not piss everyone off.

Holy shit that dude streamed for 19 straight hours....and would've kept going if Square ninjas didn't show up to put a stop to it. :O
They can't warp strike?

Aranea actually fights alongside the party but her character has a transformation/change of heart that is never explained. Cut content and all.
Yes, I am sure that her name was listed.

That was more bizarre than Ravus sudden change of heart.
But we didn't get to see the final part of the ending!
24. He did the whole game in one sitting. I only caught the last few chapters. Ending sure was something, not sure i feel very satisfied with it. Think people are gonna be a bit upset maybe. What happened to Luna? She wasnt anywhere, they kill her off?

Once he is killed, I was like WTF. But they had pages scattered there that explain a little of the backstory and purpose for him.
Atleast he was a good boss fight.
The ending is very long and I have said already, but it is more about the player and their journey. If you see it out of context, it won't be the same.
That said, he was hit by copyright strike from the sound of it so not sure how long he streamed, but the ending is totally not the cool CG, there is more than that as it progresses.
really when i saw stream the credits was shown all i saw was the florece and machine song metioned then it went to other stuff unless it was before the florence and the machien creit i didnt see her creidit
They can't use anything the kingsglaive guys could in the movie, pretty sure even their weapons appearing is just a game mechanic.

At least the boss fight was awesome, the amount of people killed off screen smh

Christ, a 19 hour stream, did he at least sleep or pause the game for a couple hours? Also concerning Luna:
Their weapons are summoned in the anime too. And in the cutscenes of the game.

I think it was near the very end with all the leads. It showed Shinji Hashimoto, Tabata and the Producers from Japan and USA. Shimomura was also there I am sure.

So what is ch 15? Stream ended with the campfire post credits scene, apparently there is more cool shit?

Yes
no it just basicalyy a titamic like scene
Cor the immortal sat on a couch while the bros saved the world ¯\_(ツ_/¯
:/ :/
I swear, somebody better overlay "my heart will go on" in the epilogue scene

I'll tell you one good thing tho, Noctis is the strongest protagonist of the franchise.
If this is true, you heroically sacrificing yourself actually probably got your bros killed by Iron Giants. looool
Please God no, I don't need Toriyama making a Lightning Strikes Back Again title just so he can firmly re-establish that the Goddess is the most powerful FF protagonist.

He is immortal? NiceCor the immortal sat on a couch while the bros saved the world ¯\_(ツ
Normally I'd correct that spelling but considering your posts I think this is more of a general problem than a specific one.
Malik is right though. Her name appears in the 2nd set of credits.
Not over Goddess Lightning
Toriyama wanked her off so bad she literally can't be beat in power by any other FF character without hacks
DarkLordMalik

I agree! Also the best party in any FF diversity issues aside.
2nd set really i would of switch yoko and put her name first before florence

Nah, trust me he's stronger than lightning... By a large margin.
Now i understand the group being decent together, but that's a pretty high bar to jump over IMO
Stronger than Lightning Goddess of FFX-2? REALLY? What does he do?

Shiva's current summon sequence is fine. She/they create a frozen world and the player character is visibly freezing... until they embrace him (if I'm remembering right). It creates a nice dynamic instead of just an impersonal super attack.
I was still a couple pages back reading the Shiva comments, forgive me if you've moved on.

Given the shit that Lightning pulls off in XIII-2, let alone Lightning Returns, you're going to have to explain this one.

Have you seen Battle of gods when goku and beerus are practically flying and fighting all across the world? Yup, that's him. Especially when he got all the swords and the ring... he's pretty rediculous.
