Man that interviewer asked the most boring questions, it just feels like they are asking the same thing he's been asked about since Gamescom by multiple outlets. Like why do they keep asking him about mods when he's already said it would have mods multiple times to multiple outlets?
Because it's a different site, and if they can ask it themselves and get a differently-phrased answer, it's exclusive content that brings in people. A bit silly, but true I think.

I get that, but it just feels like desperate attempts to make clickbait articles about nude mods.

When those fans who were complaining about the story from the early days are now completely satisfied with the overall experience, that's the moment when we can say as a team that we're pleased with what we did for Final Fantasy XV."
This bodes well.

Continued development into 2018 is a given if he says it like this.

I wonder if upper management will allow them the flexibility and budget to fulfil this entirely? Or will they limit them?

Financially the FFXV Universe is a success, so it's not a loss for them to continue working on the game for a while longer especially since the demand is extremely high.

Yeah it looks like Angelgard to me too.

I wonder if we'll see Gladio, Ignis and Prompto? I'd like to see what they got up to during that time.

Glad the see we get to see the other characters too.

Even though it's multiplayer, I wonder if I can just log in and play it solo just to experience the story? The gameplay looks great. Really liking the protect spell.

Edit:

For the first time, Final Fantasy XV players will be able to create their own character and join up with three other friends to take on epic quests and battles in the game%u2019s first and only online multiplayer expansion titled %u201CComrades.%u201D Starting October 31, players will set foot as a survivor from Kingsglaive to find out more about the disappearance of Noctis after the events in Chapter 13 from the main game.

Set in a world engulfed by darkness, the expansion casts players as a member of the Kingsglaive, with powers and unique abilities invoked from various Lucian kings, who join forces to bring the Light back to the kingdom of Lucis. Other members of Noctis's crew including Gladiolus, Prompto and Ignis will be made playable in future game updates.

As members of Kingsglaive, players equip royal sigils that grant special powers from the Lucian bloodline. Players can then strategize and create a balanced team to take on a variety of quests. In addition to multiplayer quests, single player quests are also available for players to enhance their characters

To me this totally sounds like this will be updated repeatedly in order for us to see the full story. I have a feeling we are only going to get part of it when it releases, with support lasting a few months or so in terms of adding new content per update.

I wouldn't be surprised if this were the case.

I'd imagine there would be a lot to cover in comrades and they're only giving us the first part now as you said.

I'm guessing there are gonna be micro transactions so they can make money from this and keep renewed interest with items, weapons and outfits.

I'm really liking how the combat and magic system look in this. It seems like they've done some major improvements on that.

TGS is next week right? I'll bet they'll be talking more about this then.

Can't wait.

TGS already begun, it'll run till 23th i think (same day of the ATR).

edit:

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2...o-get-full-fat-final-fantasy-15-on-the-switch

PC might up the number to 8m, i guess if FFXV releases on switch it can make it to 10m copies sold (tabata's dream number).

edit2:



new system related to the old kings featured in comrades, depending of your choices it changes the characteristics of your player character (class system?).

(man i'd literally shit myself if we could wear the lucian kings armors in a future update, they are fantastic)

TGS has already begun? Lol goes to show how much I've been in the loop xD

Someone please buy Tabata a Switch already lol. He at least deserves that.

Man that'd be so cool if they somehow got the Switch to play FFXV! I'd buy it again since I find myself preferring handheld gaming now.

seems the first story missions will happen a bit after noctis vanishes, since iris is young here... can't wait to get to the tentht year.

hyped

edit: is that angelgard or am i dreaming? (0:52)
Not only is it Angelgard, it's Angelgard being circled by those monsters from the early trailers that we never got to fight in the game itself. I wonder if they'll finally be available to fight...

I wasn't intending on doing this, but... I'm going to need to get PS+ access so I can play this expansion. >_>; I guess if I wait until everything is released, I won't have to pay that much.

Wait you need to sign up for PS+ even if you're going to do the solo missions for that?
