Yeah, I've been using spells quite liberally, and the team taking damage or stat debuffs from the spells has never been an issue.

When i first heard it i thought they had licensed the song and found it a weird choice for a small minigame, then i realised it was just suspiciously similar.
Glad i wasnt totally crazy hearing that too!
I thought the Ending was amazing.
For the 2nd Ardyn Part
Just Lock him with R1 and attack. This was literally the easiest Battle in the game alongside Leviathan, you are basically invincible

I had to go lie down afterwards.
So good. All the blood, sweat and tears were worth it.
Worst dungeon in the game imo.

To be honest, outside of that one battle I feel like the bros are some of the best controlled companions in any RPG.
I mean, yeah the AI is still stupid. But in most other games it's basically braindead. So it feels like a big step up. The team actually feels useful and like they are doing their part.
Like when I screw up and have to move away to heal up and recover MP the rest of the team will still put up a decent fight.

IDK...I can't say it was entirely unenjoyable. But every single fight was another round of "oh come the fuck on, you have to be kidding me." lol It was a slog.
Bring spells. Bring all of the spells.

Was listening to a radio broadcast somewhere and they were talking about a civilian who had been killed in Lestallum. They said he tried to attack a soldier from behind and the soldier reacted in self defense. Poor Jared being portrayed as a dirty coward through media propaganda. Empire has no shame.

Chapter 6 spoilers
That Aranea fight was really fun. All I wanted from the battle system. Loved warping up after her as she went to the sky, locking on and following with airstepping. I hope there are more interesting fights like this.

and ended up getting 2 Brisket drops. guess that makes up for it not dropping the first time lol.

Reminder to self, there is no saving in a dungeon, don't die in the dungeon.

I unlocked the second training stage and i finally realized how important is the square button when fighting intelligent oponents. The combat system starts to feel a lot more satisfying. Chapter 3 now.
End game spoilers:
Ending was decent, the final deal with
Oh shit, end music spoilers,
Overall, the first half of the game has some enjoyable combat and open world running around, but the second half was a bit of a mess. So rushed and a lot of the story stuff was well, kind of boring in some ways and unearned?
The best bits were the little convos that you and the bros have while walking around. It's a shame they didn't have some more standard cutscenes and just got rid if the dialogue choices (like, why?).
Ah well, it's a decent game, but I hope FF16 (crossing fingers it comes out) has a more stable development path and a clearer vision.
Missed opportunity to not have Knights of the Round text pop up there when Ardy was getting final killed.
Ending was decent, the final deal with
Ifrit, Bahamut, and Shiva was neat. This final campfire convo got me a bit. I really wish they would have given the bros more backstory you know? I saw the optional motel cutscene with Prompto on youtube and it's crazy the didn't make that mandatory.
Oh shit, end music spoilers,
FF theme in full force here. Kind of a sweet ending shot there.

The chapters and main story are literally the worst and least enjoyable part of this game. The post-game dungeon is about 5x as good as the best thing the campaign offers honestly. Not sure what the hell they were thinking. High level hunts are amazing fights too.
Final boss spoilers.
I mean, this guy doesn't seem to be doing much except holding attack, and he manages to die twice. He seems to do better once he adopts my strategy of "Back up and hold attack while flying in circles," but it's not at all clear that going into melee range in the wrong way to approach this fight since most of the time it isn't even clear what's hitting you.
Like, yeah, the combat in this game is by-and-large very easy. I don't think that excuses the constant problems it has with conveying gameplay information and giving you the tools to make smart decisions.

Unfortunately most of the bros' backstory is in the anime.

I just finished it too! Amen to this entire post. I really liked the ending, and the final couple of fights - I think that this game offered some amazing set piece presentation, the sheee spectacle of the summons and the crazy warping attacks, the link strikes - it was awesome.
I'm eager to return to the open world and just level the hell out of the gang, I really enjoyed some of the wandering and quest completion. The second half of the game I felt like I was being rushed from encounter to encounter to cement some element of story telling.
I really liked a ton of it, even if it was all over the place!

Why will i be able to download the DLC costumes on the 22 but they wont be available till late January?
Finished the game yesterday. I liked it but not a lot.
The Good:
- Combat.
- Boss fights.
- Characters.
- Story but ...
The bad:
- Story told in a bad way.
- Uninspiring levels and main missions through out the main game.
- Side Quest are just fetch quests.
- Car traveling and loading screens get boring towards the end when no new banter left.
- One Active Hunt at a time.
The Neither:
- Dungeons were hit and miss for me.
I would say side quests are way less enjoyable.

Any PS4 Pro improvements for this game?

Invincible? I died, and he held my body in stasis. Couldn't use Phoenix down. Game over.

Are there any advanced aspects in the combat early on? Or is most of the combo and air abilities unlocked by ascension later?

I know numerous others he's done that to. I think if you get too close he can prevent it. I don't think it's a bug.....his posture and hand outstretched looks like he's got hold of you.
I can't believe their were reviewers hating on the FF15 soundtrack!? Yoko Shimomura is a god level being.
Still my favorite track of all time

I don't see anyone else mentioning that the floor textures etc are full of weird ass dots. They look like semi dead pixels scattered all over the floor. What the hell?

There's a High Quality mode on the Pro with some visual enhancements that are noticeable even on a 1080p TV.
The catch is that it comes with some frame pacing issues, so if you're sensitive to that kind of stuff, you might want to keep it on the game's "Lite" mode, which is the default, and functions like the game does on the base PS4. (Minus the frame pacing issues, IIRC)
It's worth noting that there's a more substantial PS4 Pro patch in the works that aims to have a 60fps framerate (aim being the operative word here) in the aforementioned Lite Mode.

Been playing for almost 100 hours, never noticed anything like that. Wonder if your console's GPU is dying...
Never saw anything like that on my entire playthrough. :/

Brand new PS4 Pro, only happens on FF and I notice it on sandy areas the most. Maybe take an extreme close look at your TV next time and report back to me?
Don't do that.
I've been playing the game for more than 55 hours now. Never saw anything remotely similar to that.
Oops, this was misleading. I was forgetting when the end of Ch 14 actually was. Nvm.

The only song I didn't like was what played during the Leviathan fight. It was so overly epic that it borderlined on being obnoxious.
Never thought I'd see hate and FFXV OST in the same sentence.
Which one? Apocalypsis Aquarius? Or The Hydrean's Wrath?
Both are two of my favorites in the entire OST, actually.
You just need the save data.
If you play on easy Carbuncle can be used and that's it.
