More Details on FFXV Event - Siliconera

I don't think it was that linear, seemed pretty open to me. What exactly about the story pisses you off?

Not exploring the remade World of Ruin. Ardyn asking you what you thought of his world. Why are you asking that question when you don't let me see it?!

Not to mention the story boss fights where you hold down two buttons for the entire duration of the fight(Leviathan + final boss).

Couldn't see an option for it on the thing. Just quote.

It doesn't matter, you still shouldn't be stating spoilers when you know people haven't seen them yet.

Gotta do [hb.] and [/hb] without full stop, then it hides what's contained between those things.

Thoughts?

Well I rather see a more involved cross-event like it was done with the Lightning saga. So I quite agree with Y.

Move on to the story and see. The game is fine when you do your own thing.

Also, this games' story is linear to the point that it is unfinished! Only two writers mentioned in the credits, you should have a team of writers ><.

The story had many plot holes and it was too short. Is that what you're implying?

This is seriously your response? Not "Don't post spoilers in a public place"?

No, clearly it is my fault for reading the forums.

The story was brilliant and had the potential to be one of the best in the franchise. Unfortunately so much of it happened off screen and areas that were clearly intended to be explorable were trimmed down significantly. Furthermore characters were introduced into the plot and then quickly forgotten about and never seen again.

I liked it and feel like I got my money's worth but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed by what could and should have been.

Sadly off screen events, are a mainstay in Tabata's style of writing, see Type-0 for example. Both games have great combat, but the story is meh imo...the characters are at least a bit more exciting than Type-0's cast. Prompto for life <3 and Iggy. But the rest ...no ty.
