Can't decide. During my hype countdown to midnight, should I watch Kingsglaive first, or Brotherhood? I've seen them both, I just mean for this run.

On one hand, Kingsglaive will be the more exciting lead-in. But, it's also almost entirely devoid of the bros and their part of the story.

What's the best order leading up to the game?
Well with the crown patch they are inserting Kingsglaive scenes into the game so I would just stick with Brotherhood if you are going to watch media before you play the game.

1.02 Patch is 9.3 GB.

Not 10GB as I said earlier.

That 700MB is a lot of difference for some people, sorry for the misinformation.
 
I was 10 when this game first got announced, watching E3 with my dad and flipping shit with him because he's played through every Final Fantasy game up until then thinking this was the greatest thing we've ever seen.

10 years later and it's finally coming out, I got the next 3 days off to play with my pops and I haven't seen him this hype in awhile. I think the last game he's played was Arkham Asylum so it's been some time for him.

So the preload right now is doing a ~7 gig file. Any idea if it downloads the rest while playing or do I have to get the whole 50 gig before I can launch?

Also any idea if the latest patch is included in it?

So if I played platinum demo I will get CARBUNCLE if I still have the save right?

Going to watch brotherhood and Kingsglieve tonight. Might as well try to pick up on some of the backstory.

Amazon is now saying I won't get the game till at least Friday.

I'm seriously considering just cancelling that and buying digital.

Mine was also delayed, but only until Wednesday... They gave me one month of prime so maybe they'll give you three? :)

If you have a shit-ton of EXP and Gil make sure to
stay at the hotel in Altissia, it has a 3x EXP bonus.

Are people able to redeem their day one DLC code for the Masamune? Seems like the Playstation acknowledges the code but I get an error when confirming it.
 

Falk

that puzzling face
Was anyone able to see Falk do his presentation?

Yeah, there was no livestream. There was some miscommunication over a 'live feed' which someone in the chain took to mean streaming to the internet but it was more camera feeds from inside the theatre being fed to the hall outside the cinema.

Bits and pieces of the launch are popping up on twitter/fb but I don't think there's been any start-to-end capture that I'm aware of.

We did show stuff like this: https://www.facebook.com/PCMagSEA/posts/984709824967115

A brief rundown of what I talked about:
Footage of the recording of Main Theme of FF, XV version
My personal involvement/my company's involvement in the music of FFXV
Brief introduction of SoundtRec and Video Game Orchestra
Our working relationship with Square Enix
Talking about the music of Final Fantasy and its importance to the franchise' identity
Talking about the music of FFXV, shoutouts out the wazoo to all the people involved
Some examples of dynamic switching systems for music
Talking about how series staples were honored vs the new systems e.g. how the SNES bassline for battle themes evolved into the 'alert' state before entering combat
Talking about the car radio

I nearly cried while talking about the music of the franchise as a whole, lol

Hmm, trying to enter my Masamune DLC code on PSN and it's telling me its invalid or used. Tried 5+ times now and double checked it.
