Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.

"Hey this one's pretty good"
"yeah, I dig it too"

I love when this happens. Prompto took a close up shot of a wall and everyone was like "Wow, great shot!"

Yeah... sure. lol

I just started chapter 5 and I really don't know what to think about the story right now. There's been so little of it and what's there has been very weirdly structured.
Right now I'm doing titan and ramuh stuff for... reasons? I'm not entirely sure what I'm doing or why.

I had been led to believe that Cindy would be constantly framed by the male gaze, constantly teasing the boys sexually, etc. There may have been something like that in Episode Duscae.

I haven't seen any of that in the main game. Like, it's been all business with her. Prompto has a crush on her, but he seems to be putting her on a pedestal as an object of admiration, rather than just leering sexually.

Much ado about nothing? Then again, maybe criticism of her sexualization got them to tone it town.

Building more power, kinda like what we're doing with the Royal Weapons, and discovering what Luna's been up to.

Do any of the dialogue options throughout the game have any affect on anything? Sure doesn't seem like they matter whatsoever.

The notification to summon, whatever that is, just showed up for the first time. Pressed it, held it down. Nothing happened.

I've only had 1 so war for
Ramuh
pressed it but the fight ended and haven't even seen any other summon prompts appear and I'm on chapter 10 now

It's her outfit. And the gratuitous window wiping shots.
 
Well, I just got my Platinum trophy after killing the
giant Adamantoise boss
.

Good stuff :) I haven't got the key for the
bonus dungeons
yet though, how do I get hold of that?

I'm level 23.

Why did a level 47 Imperial just show up and kill me on a road in broad daylight?

Because you're getting stronger.

I'm about 5 hrs in, and I'm enjoying it but fuck these massive, boring, empty open worlds. When are devs gonna get it, it doesn't have to be so fucking big, dense is better.

Isn't the whole point of an ideal open world to be all big and immersive? To want it to be small and dense somewhat defeats the purpose of it. Same thing with people who basically want all the little treasures and such just laid out in front of them or be visible every couple of steps, rather than taking the time to explore the world and look for it themselves.

That being said, I understand those who prefer more linear experience, or aren't fond of exploring through such a big world. So I always felt that the ideal solution is to give the player a way to quickly traverse the world. Whether that be through vehicles, Chocobos, flying (or flying vehicles), etc. And if people still complain, then meh, maybe they shouldn't buying open world games if it bugs them that much.

Just finished it.

Chapter 13 was fine. I was expecting much worse from how people were describing it. It felt a little out of place but didn't change my opinion of the game.

The "gratuitous" window wiping shot is like two seconds long. You see her through the windshield, so you see her bikini top, but you also see her face, arms, etc. It's not like the camera zooms in on her tits, Quiet-style.

What's the minute threshold to be able to fast travel? I can't fast travel to this place that's 3 minutes away. It's pretty annoying.
 

ULTROS!

People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.
How do people get the time for this , or the will power to power slog through it.

The same people who had time to platinum FFXIII (like me lol). Well it was a holiday the day after FFXVs release and I took my birthday leave on Thursday so I had all the time to play.

No threshold, only requirement is that you should have been to that place once atleast.

You can fast travel to quest location and parking spots as long as you've been to those areas before.

You sure? I've never had difficulty doing that, even if it was 1 minute away.

Yeah, I'm trying to go to Hammerhead from Galdin Quay and it won't let me fast travel.

That's weird. I've been to both of these places before.

EDIT: ahh, I figured out the problem now. I tried traveling by picking it from the quest point and it wouldn't let me but I could fast travel fine if I pick it from parking spots.

So I just passed Chapter 4 need to make sure...

Is finding my car and the other tombs taking a back seat that I can optionally go back to doing? I decided to follower the story thinking it would eventually give me my car back but as I'm doing it my characters are talking about finding the car and doing tomb suff.

Finish all the optional dungeons. However you should really do the secret dungeon that you need to
fly to
to get. Much funnier

I live in NYC but I'm currently on vacation visiting my family at home. I want to get FFXV and play it on my brother's ps4 while I'm here. My plan was to sign in to my account and upload my save data to the online storage so that I can transfer it to my ps4 when I get back.

However, we did a test run with other games that we both have to see if I can download my saved data from online storage but we keep getting the error message "application for that saved data is not installed". For example, we both have digital versions of Sleeping Dogs and Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 but for both games I get that error message..even though the games are installed.

I did some online searching and some other people had similar problems and the best answers I could find is that apparently the saves are region locked. My brother has a UK ps4 while mine is American.

If I buy an American disc and play it on his ps4. Theoretically when I go back to download the saved data on my american ps4 then it shouldn't give me the same problem correct? Because it is an American disc so there should be no region locking of the save data.

Unless the region locking is tied to the system and not the game and in that case there's no hope lol

Is it hard to platinum?
So far on chapter 8 lvl 55 I think I kinda over leveled but I'm enjoying it a lot.
Especially some of the quests.
The only thing I find a little bit... annoying is fishing.
Any tips?

So I got a great lure from a quest in Duscae - a Tonberry one - and I lost it right away. Assuming you can buy these at some point? When can I upgrade my line/rod?

If you explore you'll find better fishing gear at different shops which makes things way easier. Other than that just make sure you're not reeling it in when tension shows up and you'll be fine. It takes some getting used to be the more you do it the easier it gets.

Yeah, you can just buy it at more shops, just gotta find them.

I need to know something. When I am creating a magic spell, let's say Fire, does it matter how much energy I use? If I use 10/99 it will increase the potency, does that mean the more energy I craft into one spell the more damage it deals?

This thread is moving fast so I'll ask again. Without to much spoilers when does your car turn into an airship? I want to do all the sidequest but, feel it would be easier with this. I'm on chapter 5 currently.

Gladio to Noctis catching a small fish: "Puny, just like yours."

Does that mean Gladio saw it? 👀👀👀

I smell potential fanfic coming.
