Are you having fun? Then keep playing the way you're playing. Are you not having fun? Then do the story quests.

So I was not a fan of that stealth mission. Not a fan, at all. Though I suppose it ended kinda cool.
Okay, I partially understood what was being said during the cutscenes, it was just a lot to parse all at once.
Ardyn is a pretty damn good villain - so his ultimate goal is basically to bring an end to the royal bloodlines right?

Brother is level 35 on chapter 3, this guy, loves playing overpowered in main missions in open world rpgs, not me, I did every chapter either recommended level or couple of levels above that
VILLAIN SPOILERS!
Yep. Ardyn is different to every other villain in the franchise, since he doesn't desire power, or to conquer the world, or to destroy it, or to "erase all existence". He just wants revenge against the gods and the Crystal for spitting on his face after all the sacrifice he made in the name of greater good. He healed people, he almost succeeded in cleansing the entire world of the Starscourge in ancient times. And as a reward, he gets denied the throne, gets denied the afterlife, and the "usurper King" (Noctis' ancestor) begins a smearing campaign against him, "making a true monster out of him" in the eyes of the people he once healed.
Keep playing and see if he succeeds or fails on what he plans to do.

It's crazy how much my opinion has changed on this game the further I go into it. It looks amazing and has some crazy FF moments but holy shit some of the gameplay/mechanic decisions are ridiculously bad. 99% of the side quests I've done are fetch quests too.
Tiny things that just get in the way, things that just make you go "why?"
I'm 40 hours and at Chapter 13 and I just want to finish this already. This game feels like it has an identity crisis, Chapter 13 feels like it was developed by a different team. Pacing feels so off.
Sorry I just needed to vent.

Just finished chapter 13. Prior to engaging I heard a lot of people complained about this chapter specifically and I thought to myself how bad could it be. My reactions playing ch13 in order
This isn't so bad

So i just picked up FFXV and Darksiders Warmastered. I was reading up on FFXV and heard that the director is planning on changing the story, adding new cutscenes, changing gameplay etc. So is it better that i wait for that patch and play Darksiders first, or are the changes looking to be minimal? I'm on the original PS4 btw.
Also what's the correct order to playing this?
Kingsglaive -> Brotherhood -> game?

We don't really have a time estimate for most of the stuff they are patching in, could be weeks or months. It doesn't hurt to put it on the back-burner if you have something else, just might not make a difference if you are waiting on changes.
Kingsglaive and Brotherhood aren't really interconnected IIRC, think you can watch in either order really.

I wouldnt do a new game+ if you still have stuff to do.
My tolerance for frustation is pretty high
On a serious note, my frustation comes from all the missed oppurtinities as stated by many many guys in this very thread too

You should start with Brotherhood and move on to Kingsglaive.
Happened to me once. It's a glitch. The worst part is that the annoying airship sound will NOT STOP unless you switch maps.
So I'm at like level 14 and just finished up chapter 2. I think I'm doing ok for leveling so far right?
Back when I was a level 9 I tried to go out at night and came across a level 30 Iron Giant. I stood tall against it, got it down to half it's health bar, then just gave up since it was one-shotting my guys at that point. Oh well.
I'm having a blast with this game. Really glad I got it!

He doesn't give me a quest to upgrade my item at all. When I try to talk to him all he does is just complain.
It's been like this since Chapter 2... I thought it was because I wasn't far enough in the story but then people were saying they got the final weapon for Noctis early on. :|

How will I know if I have this bug? I'm assuming that the upgrades become available when I do main story quests, but is it actually supposed to be any quest?

Just finished and initial thoughts.. there should be a documentary about the making of this game at some point. So much from the trailers and promotional material is not in the game and with the amount it has changed it would be fascinating to hear the full details about what went on. Despite the disjointedness of it all i still thought it was good in a lot of ways just a bit disappointing in the of staples of the series.
Running around an open world, hunts and the Combat were great fun. Its one of my favourite battle systems in the series and i'm kind of surprised it works so well. Everything i'd seen previous had made it look cumbersome to control but it turned out brilliant in a number of ways.
My main gripe throughout and especially towards the end of the game is that it lacks a lot of what i find great about the series, over the top creative designs. It seems to be a lot more grounded in its environment design and in general. The world is really nicely done but it just seems more safe rather than interesting throughout especially the dungeons in comparison to previous entires, it was really apparent there. Altissa and the throne room are an exception to this, they are both beautiful in design and i just wish they had made more areas like this. I'm guessing both those areas were designed quite early way back at the initial development so perhaps many of the other areas were rushed.
I enjoyed the music, the apocalypsis, fantastica and other main tracks are beautiful. Those tracks feel right in line with the other entries in the series.
Overall I enjoyed playing it and the combat was fantastic but it just seemed rushed and a bit disjointed overall.

Wow people weren't kidding. That chapter 13 was something else. Getting chills just thinking I'd have to go though that again on a future playthroughs.
Thank god, that small twist (which was spoiled by marketing, thanks SE) managed to grab my interest again.

LMAO! this is good!!!
just got to chp 14. man did shit go down 10-13
10-12 were pretty good though
blind Ignis is just to painful to watch ...even when he gains the ability to somewhat fight regularly it still to painful to watch
13....was pretty bad, it really was a momentum killer after all that went down in 10-12
was not expecting a ten year timeskip!!!
gonna tackle the main story tomorrow, gonna do some questing to take a breather from the story
Endgame
you need the upgraded regalia that can fly, only accessible after finishing the story

How do I git gud at fishing? Just go to every spot on the map and catch everything I can?
Also the Cleigne battle theme is the GOAT, so good.
I'm right before the boat ride, but I'm holding off and doing a bunch of sidequests due to what I hear.

Chapter 14 is a couple hours at most. I think 15 is actually considered the post game, someone can correct me if I'm wrong.
make sure to have the cursor on create spell. I had the same problem at first as well.
Jesus fuck lol
Cool, thanks!

It's not a confusing trope. I won't spoil you, but when a member of the enemy faction starts helping you for no apparent reason, you can only assume that they have some agenda of their own, don't you think?
What's confusing me is the stupid reaction from Noctis and co. Oh
Aranea
she's
It's obvious there's shit going on, my problem is how oblivious the party is to this situation.
