only played an hour or so but fucking love it so far, on a PS4 Pro the visuals are absolutely stunning. Be sure to turn on HDR mode (if your TV supports it) in options. I sorta felt a bit gay when I gazed upon my boy band companions but those beautiful tits of Cindy convinced me that the game is welcoming of all weeaboo deviants

it was rough going through the tutorials, i had played the demo or preview or whatever last year and named the pet after my dog, who died this summer. Suddenly seeing the name come to life in the game was a shock but a beautiful tribute.

Its pretty bad ass. Definitely a decent direction for the franchise. Combat is great.

ah damn man, sorry to hear that.

Every now and again I stumble across some pics of me and my dog that died several years ago and I get pretty emotional

Bro hug?

Mine came today, sadly my PS4 Pro isn't coming until Wednesday so I'm not going to bother starting it until then.

Irony in full swing as I woke up sick with a cold. Guess I have to stay home and play this all week, but I'd rather be healthy for it.

Reviews look incredibly positive so far. Should be picking up sometime within the next week or two. Can't wait. I knew this game would be good!

Mine shipped last night but won't be here til Wednesday, at least it shipped though. Amazon are telling some people they have no idea when they'll ship theirs.

How long is the movie? Mine comes with it but haven't watched it in advance.

Pretty sure it was every bit of two hours and took me three different tries to watch. But once you get in to it and things move out isn't that bad. Lots of great visuals, fighting, and the plot seems wholly significant top the game.

I hope it comes out that the eve party thing is the real reason behind the two month delay.

They already gave one of the "reasons" why for the delay: they wanted all disc out of the box to be completely playable without a launch patch. Which was true because the ones who broke street date were able to play and beat it without today's patch.

Another is logically that they needed more time to prep PS4 Pro compatibility.

They wanted to sell more ps4 pros on black Friday so they delayed it

For those wondering how the movie and the Anime falls into the story with the game. This is spoiler free.

You start the game before the event of the movie and anime. The event of movie happens during the game, but it is something that you're not directly involved in, but has major impact and ramification for the rest the story moving on in the game.

The Anime is also happening during the game. It is very self contained though. It is mostly flashbacks on how Noctis meets his 3 friends, and some major events that occurred in his past.

I would recommend watching the movie. The anime isn't as required, but will help you understand who these people are, and how their friendship formed, since the interaction between the 4 seems to be such an important part of the game...it is a nice addition.
