Just got to chapter 6. You could definitely tell the game was stitched together in the story department and it's practically falling apart by the seams at this point. Still having fun though, and it's definitely better than cassette tapes that explain key events that you listen to on the side.

I rarely use arminger weapons. The chain is just r1+l1, right? Also what is the finisher and how do you do it? I dont remember seeing it in the tutorial.

When does Valse di Fantastica/Gratia Mundi/whatever it's called actually play? I only hear that Italian-sounding theme in Altissia.

now i just found out too after i beat the game
FuuuuuuuuuUUUUUUUUUUCCCCKK costlemark tower, holy hell...
Just spent 3.5 hours beating these stupid ass x3 iron giants + snakes, when I finally went in the right cube in the correct order to get to the boss the shit glitches and I had to fast travel out to get it to unglitch. So many resources and time wasted...

Thanks for the answer mate
No problem, hope it helps!
It gets better. When browsing around certain mobile, non-ad blocked, versions of some gaming sites, this ad sometimes pops up in rotation. I've seen it on IGN, Eurogamer/USGamer, and others.
Can someone explain to me wtf I'm supposed to do agains the
boss?
I get you have to warp strike and then do damage until some stuff happens, but here's the thing, I don't think I know how to properly warpstrike in this game. Past chapter 2 or something, I went from pressing triangle to warp strike an enemy to pressing triangle and the only thing that happens is Noctis goes in some random direction anywhere but the enemy, even if I'm locked on. So that's been a major problem. But for this boss, I warp strike, maybe get a hit half the time, and I can either hold circle to try and attack, then immediately fall, or keep holding the lock on button and triangle to do more warp strikes and basically zero damage.
Seriously, what am I missing here?

I heard it in an Altissia cutscene but I'm not sure if it's ever used again.
Valse di Fantastica plays in Lucis. When you're running around and not fighting. Or wanderlust can play too. Both amazing.

Wat. Went to the
dungeon
Also fuck the
dungeon
volcano
and there was no boss. Saw some kind of giant bird nest but no boss. I had killed a giant black bird before so maybe that's why???
Also fuck the
sewer
No problem, hope it helps!

Hah, that's great.
Does anyone know where to go for Chocobo Races? I feel like I'm overlooking something very obvious - I'm in Chapter 8 & haven't done a single one yet.

Across the street from Wiz Chocobo Post. You'll see pink and blue lines up on your minimap, which are the track routes. Edit - Clarification: You'll see a sign that says Chocobo Races on that side of the street and there will be a buy/sell hut with a NPC who you talk to in order to set up races.
Cool, thanks!

Imo man fuck this story, i seriously would have had no idea who ardyn was if i didnt go on wikipedia, game doesnt explain shit
And i just finished chapter 14 lol
And i just finished chapter 14 lol
Well, I finished the game. People really weren't joking about chapter 13. It's terrible. It is the worst sequence I've played in a game in a while. Not like it was frustrating or anything. Just completely devoid of fun, nuance, or thought.
And the story revelations in the chapter are ridiculously cliche. Like watching a runaway train finally crash and burn.
If the combat was at least a little fun then that would be enough to redeem the game for me, but it's not.
I only played a few but I am done with open world games

Dude, you must be like the first person with trouble with that boss ever. It was the most trivial fight ever such that I don't remember the detail or how to advise you
Without giving too much away. Use your map when underground, you sometimes have more than one choice in where to move.
I hate to say it, but I think you can just hold circle, lol.
Nope. Enemies are unchanged and you get rolled into the beginning of the game with all your levels and weapons intact.
I kind of had trouble, too. I didn't die or anything, or get remotely near it, but I didn't know what in fuck's name to actually do. The fight was a serious mess.

I am SO annoyed that new game+ doesn't reset you back to level 1. That seemed like a total no-brainer to me.
Had to go through this dungeon twice as well because I thought it autosaved after I was done... but I was mistaken.
Brutal.The dungeon itself isn't a bad idea, but its execution is pretty weak.
So why would I want to play New Game Plus, I'm trying to find a reason here. It is not like there are multiple ending or alternative character build
To experience the story again, I guess? I'm struggling to come up with reasons myself. Maybe the DLC will require you to be at a certain point in the story to play (which would be incredibly irritating but I wouldn't put it past this team).

I'm guessing to rerun some of the set pieces?

I guess it's really just for seeing the story now, since you can't use it to max out your Ascension grid. Maybe obtaining multiples of unique items? I dunno.

You sorta have to aim your warp strike...even if locked on. Im not sure what to say, I didn't know anyone had a warp striking problem.
I think it'll be good when the additional content and stuff arrives later. For now though, I guess to super-easy mode it and collect more rare items.
I'm not in any hurry to replay the game though. Postgame content is gonna take me forever to finish, if I ever do. Working on my Ascension grid, and am farming around 2000 AP a night, which at this point is only unlocking a handful of nodes.
So many 999s...
Nydius
Member
Agreed. I can't see much reason to bother since I'm already max level and not doing a level reset means I'd only be earning AP through the same farming methods I can use without touching NG+. I honestly expected NG+ to be a reset to level 1 while keeping everything else in tact and with a tangible increase in enemy difficulty or strategy to compensate for the carried over abilities and easy access to higher level food buffs.

I feel like FFX-2 did it perfectly and it's weird that this game didn't just duplicate that one.

There aren't any dishes that increase the XP you cash in, right? Only ones that increase the XP you earn?
lmao wow
Secret 5th bro. Someone needs to shop her into that one promo pic with the gang and Cor.
Wow, I picked the same shot!
I guess besides the scenery looking beautiful it's one of the last moments of the journey where things were OK and life with your bros was good
Kay, Ive almost reached the end of the 6th chapter I guess. The game is the best FF to me until now. However, I feel like the game is short.... That's probably I haven't finished a second aide quest!
Anyway, when I was in a middle of task, I noticed the characters were tired, then I remembered I didn't feed them for ages. Is that the reason why they were tired and could barely walk??

You can if you want but he's really obnoxious either way because your bros are completely clueless and run into his AOE attacks relentlessly. If you have a lot of healing items, you should be good to go at that level.

You need to hold r1 to lock on, then warp strike. In that battle lock on, and then do regular attacks until it looks like you can warp strike. If you are at a distance your regular attacks are missiles. I suspect you aren't using r1 effectively.
