Final Fantasy XV: Cup Noodle XV Special Edition

[Sho]

In a month demos won't be much more than 10 bucks, lol.

[Tyrath]

I would do a quick play of the demo and sell it asap. Unless there is actual value in holding onto a demo which I have zero knowledge on.

What year is it?

Demos don't come with their own CDs anymore. It's a code.

[Daydreamer]

Demos only going for 20-35 now.

Mine sold for 40$ buy it now overnight. I think it's because overnight people buy out all the instant gratification ones and only auctions that end the following day were left. It esentially made my CE ugprade free so no complaints here.

[Ardrial]

Just played and beat the demo. Didn't do much exploring. Saving that for the main game.

Not really a fan of the combat against certain enemies. The really fast sabretooth enemies are annoying. They constantly jump around, causing me to warp to them constantly, which uses my mp quickly and causes you to lose your target. Because of this I can't focus on one enemy to get him down. Just becomes hectic and frustrating.

I'll hope that in the full game the combat is more fleshed out.

A lot of mixed thoughts on the demo. The negative

1. The framerate dips constantly and sometimes very badly, I was getting charged at by behemoth and the game was seriously running frame by frame. This is expected for a demo but yea it definitely needs ironing out, hopefully they can achieve this without affecting gameplay stuff like monster linking.
2. Noctis doesn't feel responsive when you need him to be, too many times where I was holding the dodge button anticipating a dodge (have mp and defend is displayed in the corner) and he would get hit, same with attacks where he wouldn't attack immediately even though the goddamn monster is right next to him.
3. The AI can be retarded, specifically when you are downed and they run to you like they are going to pick you up then they look at the monsters, look at you, look at the monster, look at you. I wish I saved the video of when ignis did this too me too show you how terrible this was.
4. Poison should not give you that huge vulnerability window every few seconds, I know this is a RPG but still.
5. I really really wish we could control characters other than Noctis, this will sadly probably stay for the full game.
6. The buttons should be re-mappable, I hate holding square for attacks it would make much more sense if R2 was for the auto attacks since defend is L1. Oh and if you played DA:I fucking X does everything in this game too.

Despite all the negative the gameplay at its core is very very fun and has immense replayability, the graphics and music are outstanding, the open world is very well done better than DA:I imo, you could easily squeeze 8+ hours of gameplay just from this tiny demo.

You also need to unlock the summon by

Spoiler: show

clearing the goblin cave. At the bottom is a green crystal... tree thing that unlocks Ramuh.

And that's what I didn't do, lol. Tried looking on google, but apparantly my google-fu wasn't helping.

ITT: Bad at following quest directions

[Omniyoji]

No victory fanfare? Yeah.... Fuck this game

LOL, love these guys.

You can sell the code, lol. It's not like it's impossible.

[Ardrial]

This guy said to play it then sell it. Which you can't do with a code

There is a target lock button so even if you lose sight of the one you were attacking you will still have it targeted but otherwise agreed on the annoyance of those damn things being so fast.

[Tyrath]

Thats another thing. I don't think it makes sense to lose sight of something you have target locked. Camera should move with it.

[Kaslo]

Sho so slow.

[Kalmado]

That's my bad on the selling of demo thing. TBH, I just assumed it was on disc. Since it's a code I'd sell that instantly.

You hear the fanfare while camping actually. But I didn't watch the video so I don't know if you are talking about something else.

And not to rub salt in the wound or anything but they have said repeatedly that it was going to be a download and not included on the disc. Not only in interviews but also in the ATR's.

I'm assuming that's about the demo. I'm not sure what an ATR is and the only information I've even looked at for this game is this thread. Any "official video game site" to me is just a bunch of garbage anymore so I don't bother. Maybe that makes me closed minded or stupid. Oh well. I'm ok with it.

And I just bought another PS4. Cowboom. $250 used. Looking forward to this!

Yeah, I was just quoting the guys in the vid.

Btw is Cindy in the demo? I know the whole point of the demo is to pay her for the car repairs Maybe I'll check out Tyraths playthrough and see.

Yes she is.

[Ardrial]

Yes. She has a southern accent.
