Unfortunately, there isn't enough of it and it was abandoned before it could be finished. I did really enjoy the brotherhood theme and the road trip banter though. Episode Ignis was also fantastic. I'm curious, Leon. What did you love about FF15 other than the brotherhood/banter? For me, the story was dead-on-arrival because I found no reason to get invested in the characters. Noctis was a plank of wood. His three bodyguards were walking stereotypes with the depth of an FFX NPC. And Lunafreya? Yikes. This IMO is the main problem with post-merger FFs. Whereas FF7-10 did the legwork to get you invested in their protagonists early on by building intrigue around their pasts and depicting them as heavily flawed (and human) characters, FF15 expects you to care abut Noctis just because he walks when you tilt the control stick. --- ~Jacksonville Jaguars~ <cite>plasmabeam posted [p:958351928] in Rate the V...
