Cool to hear! Couple of questions. First time playing it? Did you end up downloading the game again? Were you able to replace the radio's music with filthy gaijin tunes?

How accurate would SteamSpy numbers be by now? Currently FFXV is at 261,192 ± 16,411 owners.

Picking up loot in this game is so horrible. Why did they kept it as is ? I love hearing a sound notification 10 seconds after I picked the item because they are queued

Disappointed in the motion blur implementation, coming out of games like The Evil Within 2 moving your camera around simply isn't as satisfying.

first time playing it fully yes, i plyed a few hours of the ps4 version but could not stand playing it on a tv lol from far away. waited for pc version, totally worth it. i ended up downlaoding the hd texture pack again but i realized it did that cause i got into my other steam account to smurf on dota and apparently the family sharing issue with the textures got fixed so it downloaded them again for that account apparently, at least thats my understanding.

i havent tried the music thing yet, its just too much rocket science for something so basic, so ill wait for official mod support for that.

game is great and graphic are great too.

These "Menace Beneath Lucis" quests are quite lengthy... not a huge fan of trudging through a long pitch black dungeon with no minimap but I like the gear I'm getting (just completed the first one).

Yeah I'm playing through the pc version like it is a mmo. Having a great time.

Though I will tell you there are a few quests you can't do until after you finish the game.

Just upgraded to Engine Blade 3 and it's pretty strong, but I do a lot of warp-striking and was wondering how it compares to Ragnarok in that regard. Anyone know which one's the better pick?

Huh. I started over to do a Lv 1 playthrough and I have the Ultima Blade before even going to Lestallum. I recall before I had to get the Sturdy Helixhorn from the Duplicorn hunt later on, but I managed to drop several in the Spiracorn hunt from the Alstor station.

Honestly don't remember that being the case in the original

Yeah, tried everything I could think of, nothing worked. It was the first cube puzzle room, so it wasn't such a huge loss.

However, what was a huge loss was beating Costlemark in my level 1 run, going to the camp and forgetting to equip the nixperience band without saving first. :(((

Oh nnnnnoooo

Just took down the lv 120 super boss while I was at level 74 solo
Naglfar
Just kept him poisoned and then kept doing the lv 3 armiger unleashed attack, otherwise was blocking with the ring of lucis equiped and building the tech meter. All my team members died at the beginning of the fight but I revived them all right before he died so that everyone got exp.
I probably won't do all of the menace quests if some of the later ones are multiple hours each... maybe it's time to take a break and do some chocobo racing.

Finished Gladio's dlc,it was really nice..short but fun.
It felt a little like nioh in some way and adding a few story bits about Cor's background is always welcome.
The soundtrack was great and the enviroments are beaufiful,even if it's too basic in its design.
I'll do Prompto's tomorrow,i've read that it's longer than this one.

Holy shit. The Altissia boss fight had some horrible geometry in the area.
The whole sequence reminded me of a bad JRPG from the PS2 era.

What happened there. Everything looked so ugly and rushed. Even the Leviathan looked low res and low poly :(

But lol I basically finished that chapter and decided to come back the open world and do dungeons and shit. Having way too much fun with the open world and sidequests more than the main quest. Level 50 already!
I think it's time to attack the Beolv Mines

Woohoo, finally got some cool colors and medals for my chocobo. Is there any way to "own" my chocobo so I don't have to keep renting it?

Is it worth keeping the upgradable weapons after you've gotten better stuff? Like the Drain Lance, not seeing much point in keeping it after getting the Dragoon Lance.

Here's the remix of Apocalypsis Noctis from Tekken 7. Sounds great. I think it was made by Rio Hamamoto

I'm (slightly) pissed.

So after dealing with three game crashes last night when trying to stream, I decided to fire the game up today to accomplish what I had started to do last night before the final crash of the night:

Kill the Psychomancer and get Ulric's Kukris.

I didn't know about it until last night when I happened to see mention of it looking up something else. Anyway, I finally got there. Killed the creature and... nothing. No drop at all.

Then I look it up. Apparently the drop is either bugged or just incredibly damn RNG based now. It used to be a guaranteed drop but not so for those on the PC and those with the Royal Edition. I even saved and reloaded the game because someone said that worked for them. Nope, nothing.

And after the frustrations of the past day now, I really don't want to go through the steps of spawning it again (if I even can).

So what decides if an "Auto" car trip is an actual trip or a fast travel? It feels so random right now..

I knew the ring of lucis was overpowered but I just used it to kill the lv 99 adamantoise / giant turtle lol. I took off 1/8 of it's health using my regular weapons and then I was like "this is going to take a while, let me try this ring". I knew beforehand that it was going to be a length fight so I brought 50 ethers with me. I started using the ring and it was rapidly taking off 3k damage per hit and then once his health got to about halfway the ring insta-killed him lol. Prompto took some great shots too.

Also killed the lv99 snake lady using the armiger unleashed and the occasional spell.

So the game seems to be crashing every time I approach Costlemark Tower now, awesome.

That's what I thought too but after like 12 hours I went back to the Quays and I had to do the whole trip back to Hammerhead... No way it's the first time I've done that trip.
There's a fast-forward icon if you can fast travel. Problem is that quest fast travel can be hit and miss. Parking spots can all be fast-travelled to if you've already visited them.

I think traveling there for a quest may be weird about it. There are some odd inconsistencies

Ansels pretty great. I have to adjust the lighting sometimes but I think the end result is good.
