I have been getting 18 hours in this game and just reached chapter 9, already I want to give up this game and just resort to let's play. As a long time final fantasy fan, I could understand now why everyone was angry when this game was released. The experience was so incomplete and fragmented. Prior playing this game I re-watched the movie, anime, trailers, and the drama CD just to make sense of everything. I can tell FF XV is one messed up victim of corporate greed. Tabata said the game has 200+ subquests, and basically fillers. The story of each chapter itself feels very short and unsatisfying. Worse, there are a lot of references of events that happened outside of the game. People who haven't consumed the media would think "WTF just happened?". While I understand the context of the story, I think it's a poor storytelling. FF XIII maybe a controversial entry, but at least the experience was complete.
While I am grateful we have FF XV, but the game just feels so incomplete. Locking up stories into DLCs is a bad practice.
*sigh*
I enjoyed the game in the first 10 hours, until I realize I only need to do the quests to get money and buy potions. If I could buy the PC version, I would just cheat and play the game without doing any of those useless quests.
