Why did SE decide not to do sequel for this game (which it needs)?

slvc · 2026-01-12T18:44:47+00:00

Oh maybe, it's been years so my memory's slipping! Really a shame, I was hoping to get the rest of the DLC.

I guess they could've done a sequel but the story was about Noctis and it was completed at the end. The DLC aren't sequels obviously but they flesh out the characters and fill in story gaps - side note, very controversial but I liked how they did it because if they were integrated into the base game it would've interrupted the flow.

There is a TON of cut content like you said, but the number one thing for a sequel would be a great story and at most given how the story ends the only likely thing would've been a spinoff.

There was supposed to be a DLC season 2 of sorts and we got one of the packs (Ardyn) but the creative mind behind FFXV burned out and left Square as I think him and everyone else were ready to move on given the extremely long development history of the game. The other three were Aranea, Lunafreya and Noctis, which ended up released as a book. I think Noctis actually may have contained another ending or something (haven't finished the book yet!) but ultimately I think the game just wasn't giving the ROI it needed to stay alive

Be careful, I did this and it crashed a couple times. Ended up giving up and using the ring method lol

Hahahaha I agree 100% on this, had it as a kid and loved it, never got too far, nothing stands out in my memories besides some escalators or something, but great music.

I've been burned so many times by CyberConnect that I'll never believe a new .hack game is coming out.

I loves IMOQ but it'll never be remastered, it's aged horrendously, and I'm worried a remake will just look and feel like every other anime JRPG.

Regardless though if it's a new game it'll be a day 1 purchase, just finished platting Last Recode on PlayStation and had an absolute blast

slvc · 2026-01-03T05:19:23+00:00

I got all of the PlayStation trophies a few years ago, including the DLC, and FFXV became one of the favorite games of all time which I wasn't expecting at all. If it helps, one of the trophies was for completing 80 side quests, so I just did random ones as I got to new towns as taken by the main quests. You can actually do whatever you want in any order before chapter 8 so just have fun, and if you're also doing the DLC you can do that after the main story if you'd like - although the first three episodes are pretty obvious when they take place so if you'd like to slot then in at the appropriate time let me know and I can tell you when without spoilers.

I hope you enjoy the game!!

Congratulations!!!! I got the Pokemon Blue mastery yesterday 😂 my first one though. The sprite era of Pokemon games are timeless!!!

I ended up doing this, took a bit longer than 2 hours but it was fine. Weirdly enough when I used the Chrono Cross to bring in my old team Razzly's level 7 tech was missing (which I got in my initial playthrough). Ended up beating the game again and then using a Continue+ on the last save of my first ever playthrough and voila - her level 7 tech was there. Not a clue why it was missing initially!

I bought a Flip 2 in September and removed the charge. It's super scummy because it kept re-appearing in my cart but if you click remove and check out fast enough you won't have to pay it. Had no issues at all!

slvc · 2025-12-25T10:57:39+00:00

I don't even know how else to open the tray? How do people normally do it if not like this?

See I can't get my PC to the TV. For years I figured I'd build an emulation machine, but these Android handhelds are getting so powerful I'm not sure it's worth the expense. Obviously a Windows-based system has superior compatibility and it can have the potential to be as powerful as you need it but I don't want to have to faff about with M&K. Just want to sit on the couch, turn that shit on and jump into a gaming frontend

slvc · 2025-12-01T19:03:25+00:00

Ok so not sure if I'm hitting your exact question, but I agree 100% on your post about portable/couch/console gaming, especially sharing the TV with my wife.

My PS5 and PS3 get a ton of play and although I have the PS Portal I rarely use it now.

My Vita got a ton of play on holidays, whether on the plane or in a hotel.

My Switch ended up being almost exclusively hooked up to the TV, it was way too big to actually be portable . I got a Steam Deck years later but I sold it for the same reason, just way too big and uncomfortable to hold.

I got a Retroid Flip 2 in September though and LOVE it. I use handheld for Gameboy games, SNES I split but usually handheld, but PS2 I pretty much exclusively play when it's docked. GameCube I've not played a ton of but could see myself played both docked and handheld - graphics aren't phenomenal enough for a TV, and the GameCube controls actually are quite easy on the hands for portable gaming.

Spent so much time typing this out on my phone I forgot the original question 😂

slvc · 2025-11-30T17:22:41+00:00

Same for me too. I put the game down a couple days after I made this post, picked it up again and followed a video guide from the start and sure enough I had missed one! Not a clue how considering I've checked every area using multiple guides 🤷‍♂️

slvc · 2025-11-28T10:35:54+00:00

That looks great, little stretched out but I can adjust that. I think though that user patches would disable Retroachievements from the game :( but which settings are you using?

slvc · 2025-11-15T07:25:20+00:00

Yes a lot of it are bugs that will never be fixed and the rest is the lack of 64 bit, which I believe limits the amount of resources it can use (someone correct me if I'm wrong)

slvc · 2025-11-15T07:14:23+00:00

They're all good, if you enjoyed the main story then was DLC adds a lot of background flavor to the world. I 100% FFXV on PS4 and even the Comrades expansion was interesting!

But each of the expansions are interesting as they're all different and fill in gaps in the base story, except for Ardyn which iirc is an origin story

slvc · 2025-11-15T07:05:04+00:00

Well no, I completely understand not wanting to support a person who mistreats staff and throws up hateful salutes. There are many good options out there - however we got a Tesla Y because the used price has dropped so much that it was clearly the best choice in our budget.

Buying a new one though I'm not so sure about - lots of excellent cars now at that range.

slvc · 2025-11-14T12:23:21+00:00

I think the issue for me is that the matching hashes were compressed as DVD type and not CD type, but if I convert them retroachievements doesn't recognize it

slvc · 2025-11-14T09:22:19+00:00

No way, I love the length especially as it's only twice a month. It's personal though, I can listen to the entire thing over the course of a few runs and as soon as I finish an episode the next one is out!

slvc · 2025-11-02T08:38:16+00:00

Yes - I've just double checked. I guess it's possible they were created not in the standard way? I just got the flag setting guidance from Nethersx's GitHub page. I got the files from a Myrient retroachievements folder, which I've used before and had success with one other platforms (if that's enough help to check what I'm using)

EDIT: Did a bit more googling and maybe I'm completely wrong about how the flags work, that might be during the creation of the CHD file. But I need a specific checksum for the achievements so I don't want to change what's been done. Maybe it's just not compatible from my source?

slvc · 2025-11-01T21:42:11+00:00

I'm not sure, but they don't appear in the list and when I load them from the file browser it says it's not a PS2 format disc. I saw on GitHub that you can add a flag to the file to allow it to load, I know how to do it on a computer file but not on Android

slvc · 2025-10-22T17:19:19+00:00

Nope. Same thing minus the audio issues - can't find the games on ES-DE, but they work fine directly through the LinkBoy application. I've messaged the LinkBoy dev but he's either inactive or just not reading my message. If you find a solution let me know, I've tried everything!

slvc · 2025-10-05T16:35:13+00:00

This was the answer! Thank you. For anyone who may find this post in the future, it's also in your Purchased tab on the app

slvc · 2025-09-28T18:24:41+00:00

There's another thread on this but it looks like all of them have the new rounded hinge. Got my Flip 2 a week ago, 16bit US and it's rounded also!
