The hate for XV is way more then I ever thought. Anyone who says anything the least bit negative on the FF reddit gets downvoted. People praising 2, 8, 11, 12, 13 etc get praised for going against the grain but the second you say something good about XV its game over lol. XV is a janky unpolished, unfinished mess but its one of my favorite games ever and I just wish its still got updated because they could truly made it from special to something really really special with the dlc and any other qol they could have added
It's the wasted potential that largely pissed people off. Whether you are a Versus 13 truther who hates the fact Insomnia was cut, and spliced into a movie with a character created to fulfil Noctis' role (Nyx) or even someone like me who thinks 15 IS the game we were supposed to get - there's too much that was planned for this game that was ultimately cut completely. More locations in the second continent, a train station in Lestalum ect. Interesting that you thought Ardyn wasn't the villain considering they removed and changed Ardyn for release to make him more of a obvious bad guy early on because of Kingsglaive. In the original draft Ardyn's villainy was downplayed, so that the players wouldn't realise he was the main villain until after the first games (the planned story involved three games). FF15 is almost a masterpiece. If only they spent more time fleshing it all out for the release.
@Notallowed101 that's interesting I have been meaning to watch the movie and stuff for the game but just haven't yet and the development of a game i never understood to be a issue i mean it ain't pokemon doing a yearly release and the game took so long because they where changing things and to me I understand that
@@freakystyley13 You have yet to watch the movie? You should watch it if you loved ff15. ff15 was dev hell. Went from one game, to three, then finally condensed down into the single game we have today. It has it's game engine changed midway through - building a brand new engine alongside developing the game. Development time was a decade. The final product was mostly scrapped together in the last three years. There's an incredible amount of stuff they planned to add and use and many of it just didn't get shown at all. It's interesting how deep the ff15 rabbit hole goes.
