Final Fantasy XV: Cup Noodle XV Special Edition

So the Switch may not be getting the pocket version after all.

SE is trying (apparently very hard) to get XV proper running on the Switch. Tabata, and SE as a whole, have gotten XV to run on Switch with unsatisfactory results and are looking at options (such as working with Epic and Unreal Engine 4) to get a full blown Switch version running.

The impression I'm getting is that Luminous engine has such a huge amount of CPU overhead that a Switch version isn't really viable. Even on PS4 the game isn't doing much impressive visually with the environments to warrant some of the awful visual shortcuts they took (hi water reflections) and its overall performance.

That and the filesize of the game. Probably uncompressed assets on PS4/Xbone, but that would be an extra processing overhead on a potential Switch version. An engine transition though would be a fuckton of work though, the easy solution at this point is porting Pocket Edition, and keep future FF games in mind with Switch instead.

[...] and keep future FF games in mind with Switch instead.

lol @ FF16 being released this console cycle.

You're spot-on though. FF15 on Luminous is too bloated to port to Switch, too costly to outsource transcribing to a better engine.

This is the company that managed to port the nightmare spaghetti code mess of XI over to Xbox, they'll probably work some kind of voodoo to make XV work on Switch (although I wonder if it will ever truly perform well even if they do manage it).

One of the whole purposes to Luminious engine supposedly was compatibility and portability.

Porting a generation up than what you're already on is pretty massively different than porting half a generation down. That being said, there's no fundamental systems reason I can see for this not working, so I'm sure if they turn enough settings down, they'll be able to get it going.

New cutscenes with background lore and elaborating a bit more on current characters have been added to Chapter 12. Not sure if there's anything else story-wise anywhere else, I haven't downloaded the patch myself yet, just saw a video on YouTube.

[Vaspinne]

Chapter 12 is when you're in Tenebrae for anyone curious. From the sounds of it, apparently it does give a nice bit of lore and backstory, but I haven't watched it myself to confirm yet

Got my season pass so I'm looking forward to this. Annoyed at the slight delay though. Had that week off for the original release date. Going to be out of the country when it does finally drop.

[Tyrath]

Oh cool, I can try it with the season pass as well.

[Silenka]

So you also need PSPlus to play it because it's multiplayer?

Finally got some time to get in some more Menace dungeons. Are there items you can miss through your first trip in them? Just finished Greyshire Grotto, killed the boss, and it pretty much locked me in the final room with the only option to escape being to go back to the beginning. Just want to make sure I'm not missing anything, but I feel like I have.
