This has probably been asked a ton, but why can I sometimes fastravel for a cost of 10gil, and other times I need to travel in real time? I'd like to fast travel more, but it's almost never an option =/

I buy cakes for myself on my birthday it's not weird lots of people do it I bet
Even though I still have Sun and Moon I couldn't resist this---like three hours left to install everything though.
Haven't really paid much attention to this game so I'm basically going in blind. I really enjoy Final Fantasy X and XII, how much will I enjoy this then?

All about that Gilding Along for me.
This game also has the best battle themes in the series. Each one is stellar. Usually they're hit or miss for me.
She sounds like a real cutie in Japanese, though.
Yeah, it was fun doing some level 10 quests i forgot about and just one shoting things nearly lol. Also pretty easy to cheese higher level enemies.
Okay, I'm only a few hours in but so far I'm really impressed by how they've managed to salvage that clunky, unresponsive, almost unplayable mess of a battle system from the Platinum Demo. The combat is surprisingly fun and addicting. I'm having a blast just going around doing hunts and jumping into random battles.
And I guess that you're not actually able to manually take photos with Prompto's camera? He just does it on his own?

Pretty sure he has a technique that does exactly that, where he uses up a tech bar to take a photo; look for it in the skill tree. May not be exactly what you're looking for, but it's probably your closest bet.
Yea he does, it's called snapshot. Takes up the place of his normal technique though if you want to use it.
The best get out of jail free card I've found is Ignis' regroup skill. Costs 2 bars but it heals all party members' hp by about 25-30% and pulls everyone out of danger mode immediately. You can even use it to "evade" big attacks because the animation is long and invincible. As long as you invest in the tech tree skills that give you tech bar for when Noctis attacks/takes damage, you'll almost always have it ready to go.
If you try to fast travel by quest often it won't give you the option, even though selecting the same location using travel by parking spot will have fast travel. It's dumb and not implemented well.

It's quite good but it's also very inconsistent. While Pokemon is a pretty consistent experience, FFXV can be all over the place. The combat can be very fun but the leveling kinda breaks some moments. If you loved monster Hunts in XII, this is a pretty great game. If you like the Story of X, it's quite a bit problematic in its presentation and plotting and the localization falls short of XII's standard.
Yeah don't feel bad I was like level 20 or so when I did that one and I remember it being unusually hard for some reason. Some of those hunt mobs are way stronger than the regular versions.
Yeah it's in the exploration tree, called Snapshot. You equip it as his technique and then activate it during battle and he'll take a snap. You can upgrade it with the node next to it and sometimes you'll gain AP when he does it.
Tap square to roll away in the direction you want.
Safest way to create space in large swarms of enemies.
Relying on the block button with large swarms will quickly deplete your mp,& so you enter stasis and die.
Also use warp points fequently,get a hit then roll away until you get a chance to spread the enemies out.
Hope that works for you.

Go to a camp site and select training. This will give you the chance to practice in one on one with a very easy enemy that telegraphs everything massively. Keep doing the training fights as they start to get slightly harder.
With the dog like creatures try not to be in the centre of the pack (same for the soldiers), warp strike in get a few hits down (targeted warp), warp out (untargeted warp). rinse and repeat keeping an eye on MP, when you are use to their movements just use timings of dodge and attack. If there are warp points use them.
If you see block prompt come up, hold block, don't move and get ready to hit attack when the prompt appears.
If you can aim for the backs do but not always possible with fast enemies. Use ally commands often as the meter builds quickly and you will usually be given a prompt to trigger at the end.
I haven't mastered how to use summons yet, the prompt appears for me at times but pressing it doesn't always work. Armiger I haven't fully got a hang of yet either though it is fun.
I wouldn't bother about weaknesses and strengths or magic until you get to grips with your timings and the warp basics.
I really don't mean to be rude here but if it did nothing for them I can assure you that's on their TV, XV isn't doing something weird or anything.
Don't get me wrong, I hope SE patches in a solution for you guys, it's not unheard of, but surely you've been facing this problem with a lot of modern games? It's not like XV places the HUD completely up to the edges of the image either. I imagine you must have been pretty lucky if other games all used your PS4 OS's settings
Don't even bother normal attacking much when they're all alive. Just keep holding square/or just moving away from them to create space and make sure you abuse parrying + skills to do damage without leaving yourself open.

Question about hunts. Am I supposed to keep roaming the area where it tells me they will be at and they just spawn? Or am I supposed to stick around a town and listen for someone to give me a clue as to where exactly they are at?

god I fucking hate AI teammates. Getting hit by a fucking behemoth without dodging shit seems like such a good idea...just solod a level 15 behemoth at level 11 since my teammates are worthless other than popping link techniques
Sometimes you have to hold the Block/Evade a little after pressing.
I've had times where it just wasn't responding even though I was definitely holding the button and even parrys wouldn't come out sometimes.
I also had Blink at the time and that helped a lot.
I was level 12 at the time and just used Fira and the Drain Spear.

Loved the ending of chapter 13. The battle plus the aftermath plus the last cutscene...my god I wish I had preserved a save file for that spot.
Use magic and Gladio tech when everything fails and you should be fine. I think I was around that level when I beat it too, it was hard probably because that's the fight where the camera got more on my way so far.
I don't think there is one yet. I have the same problem. The last half of the command prompts are cut off so I end up making educated guesses to what they want me to do. Frustrating.

I beat it at level 15, use Armiger and use their techs don't try to go in crazy with Noctis. Prompto's piercer works well, and I used Ignis' Mark ability as well.
Oh, so you can still run out of MP? Bummer but I guess that's to be expected lol
Going mainly through the story today. I'm level 23 in chapter 3 lol. Guess I just enjoy the combat and hunts so much I kinda got carried away. Got a nice stock of hi-elixirs, those things almost make me feel like I'm cheating 
Almost got my ass handed to me driving at night to the town. Iron giant, magitek soldiers dropping down by the dozen, crazy.

Sounds like you're underleveled for the hunt.
What would help is using your techniques from your party to assist you in dealing damage to hunts. Additionally, giving you and your party accessories is a huge help. Maybe spend some points in the Ascension Grid if you haven't.

Are you supposed to get fold from quests? Like the dog tab things?

Are you never able to parry while in the air? I feel like lacking that ability really hurts the viability of aerial combat, which is a shame cause it feels good to perform consecutive airsteps otherwise.
I'm in Chapter 8 and having a lot of fun with the game so far. It feels very messy and disjointed at times, and there are some parts I definitely don't like. But at the same time I appreciate a lot about it, like how unique the combat system is. I can't think of any other game that plays quite like this one.

Theres skill a tree that gives you mp for every hit connected plus special swords that reduce the penalty, you stay up for good awhile
Theres a skill that allows you to air dodge at the most but no parry attack follow up
Have you been leveling up (ascension) and buying new armor and weapons?

I'm not, but now I have a reason to be
Hahaha! Good to know.
Hunts are more for challenge and for items/gil. MQ and SQ are more for EXP

This is one reason I switched to Wait mode. Being able to pause and survey battle has helped me a ton on multiple occasions.
Nice! Thanks for tip!
I'll look out for that next then. Currently I have about 230ish AP, so I'm getting there lol
Hopefully it doesn't cost too much...

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
I just found out that there are 50% XP boost food.
How do these work? Can I use them just before camping and get 50% XP bonus on the massive XP gains that I've got? Can I do that with quest rewards as well, I mean, me taking the buff just as I turn in a bunch of quests?

Costs 333 AP for the Airdance node, 407 total to get to it from the center of the combat tree.

I'm in Chapter 2, and I was doing a side quest searching for something, and I just couldn't find it, but I was also getting attacked by Magitek troopers every 30 seconds. When I finally rested, I went from lvl 5 to 13. LOL
Um, yeah, I think I'm overleveled now.

You need to change the text to FR/GER/ESP.
Is very stupid for them to use the inferior system as default.
