Asking that question about any Final Fantasy game will result in a bunch of people telling you it's incredible or the worst game they've ever played so let me just try and put out an objective argument. It was 85 metacritic at launch and has been extensively updated since.

I enjoyed it, I think is a decent adventure with a likeable cast of main characters, but by no means is a "good" game (at least the day one version which I played).

I think getting the Royal Pack and Season Pass at these super discounted prices and giving it another go may shift your stance a bit. I know Royal Pack did a lot to elevate the game. And the character dlcs are all super fun and great plays.

Same. I think it's the only FF thing I don't have on my PS4. Also that WOFF Maxima DLC upgrade is finally at a price I'm enticed by. May give that a purchase too!

 

[zeitgeist]

I think this is the first time I've struggled to understand the DLC but am I right in saying neither the season pass or royal pass include all of the DLC? I think the only content I would want is the episodes for Ignis, Prompto etc but do I have to buy some separately?

 

[Deleted member 437]

I also have a FF XV question.

Is FFXV a game worth replaying for someone who beat the game at launch?

Bought the game at launch, beat it, and haven't touched it since. Heard there was a bunch of new stuff for this royal edition. Worth replaying the WHOLE game again with this stuff? Does it elevate the game by a good degree?

Season Pass - Ignis, Prompto, Gladio, and Comrades DLC
Royal Upgrade - Expands the final chapter, and it's not part of the season pass.

If you have the vanilla game, then you'll need the Season Pass + Royal Upgrade + Ardyn Episode. If you buy the Royal Edition then you only need to buy the Ardyn DLC episode.

It does elevate the game. The royal upgrade expands the final chapter, and includes a bunch of new bosses, lets you swap characters, and expands the armigir mechanic. The DLC episodes flesh out the main characters even more, and

Spoiler

show what happen when the bros leave your party

. But let me ask you , did you enjoy the vanilla experience? The updates not going to change your opinion radically, but if you did enjoy your time with the vanilla experience then yeah go for it. But if you hated the game, then it's not going to make you love it.


The DLC episodes are also accessed from the menu, so you don't have to replay the entire game.

 

[Dyno]

The MH dlc is finally on sale too

Click to shrink...

I can see how it would be confusing as the game gives a lot of options on how much DLC you want. So I hope my answer can help.

If you get Royal Edition you get all the DLC EXCEPT Episode Ardyn as that had released after Royal Edition released.

If you have the original game, Royal Pack is an upgrade for the main game.

The Season Pass gives you Episode Gladiolus, Episode Prompto, Episode Ignis, and Multiplayer Comrades.

Episode Ardyn is not included in season pass.

So basically....

Own the day one version of FFXV? Buy Royal PACK, Season Pass, and Episode Ardyn.

Haven't bought FFXV and a new player? Buy Royal EDITION and Episode Ardyn.

I also have a FF XV question.

Click to shrink...

Definitely, especially if you get Royal Pack as I think it really helps iron out the last few hours. And the character DLCs are really some of the best story DLC for a game imho.

I'm thinking about picking up WOFF as well.

I only played a few hours when it launched. Maybe I should start again XD

Just a minor correction here, but the character swapping was a free update to the game, and you unlock each character in the Ascension Grid.

I am good.

 

[PshycoNinja]

Added Chocobo's Mystery Dungeon cause that completely slipped my mind >_<

 

[pleaseinsertdisctwo]

Of course I gave my PS4 to my brother to borrow for the next couple of months right before this smfh

I miss FFVIII :(
And World of FF idk why I gave that away :(

I would also consider buying Chocobo's Dungeon but this version butchered the opening CG cutscene and made the cutscenes way worse for no reason lol (and they were already bad)

Overall I did not enjoy the game. I didn't like the combat, the summon system was dumb and the story nonsensical.

The only thing that really stuck with was the secret dungeon at the end, the friendship of the dudes and the very very end.

Question about Comrades (DLC) for FFXV.

I have the Royal Edition of the game and remember Comrades shutting down in some form. Can I currently access Comrades and get all the trophies or do I need to get the paid DLC Comrades to play it? My intention is to play the mode offline if that makes any difference.

I believe if you had Comrades at any point, you were able to get standalone Comrades free of charge.

It wasn't shutdown, but they made it standalone so you didnt need FFXV to play, and also to reduce the space FFXV took up on HDD due to Comrades.

As for trophies for Comrades, on the main game, there is no way to get those trophies now. But Comrades has a separate trophy list now for its standalone version.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if you never earned a trophy in Comrades in the main game, that list doesn't appear for you?

It is a time of war. The Republic of Galbadia, under the influence of the sorceress Edea, mobilizes its great armies against the other nations of the world. Squall and other members of SeeD, an elite mercenary force, join hands with Rinoa, a resistance fighter, to fight against Galbadias...

Well I loved the vanilla version so much that I ended-up putting 90+ hours into it and even got the Platinum trophy for it. After that, it just felt weird to go back to the game. Even after all the additions I was kinda scared that replaying it might hurt my initial enjoyment of the game. So no I haven't played any of the added contents (not even the revised Chapter 13.... was it? Not even that).

That's an understandable fear. Everything added is more additive to the experience as nothing was taken out of the game. If Royal Pack isn't for you cause you just want to keep the vanilla version intact in your mind that's a-okay. I still highly recommend.

As for the Character DLCs (Gladio, Prompto, Ignis, Ardyn) they're all separate from the main game and, I think, really great additions. I think it would be a shame to miss those if you enjoyed the main game so much...

Edit: Personally I just find XV as my comfort game and regularly go back and play at least once a month. Just makes me feel good playing it and I love the actual role-play element of the game.

Edit 2: They buffed the ring but they didn't really change Chapter 13, they added a new route in the story if people wanted to avoid the Noctis section :/

But there is a way to get all the story beats in Noctis's route and Gladios route if you camp at the right moment with Noct and switch to Gladios route.

I do go back and forth on this every time I see the season pass on sale. If I hadn't bought DQXI in this sale I probably would've grabbed the DLCs for XV after your recommendations, but for now I think I'll wait for the next time they go on sale. Thanks tho, I really appreciate you guys recommending them.

I also have to admit that I was bummed that the second batch of DLCs got canceled since I had decided to finally play all the DLCs once the second pass had fully come out. Episode Noctis still sounds great :(

I'm gonna be super honest, I really don't know when this will be on sale again. I'm not trying to alarm you or rush you, it's your money after all. XD

But yeah, I think this is genuinely the first time I've seen the DLC on sale. And it's pretty cheap (I'm pretty sure Episode Ardyn is a price error as it was $10 a few days ago), so I understand if you can't but I honestly don't know if this will be on sale again.

Royal Edition most definitely will be on sale again as it goes on sale with every FF sale.
