Thank you for watching, I started my ff15 journey this year in 2022 after trying to get into it once before last year and leaving it, I really was not expecting to like it as much as I did and I think after this I need to invest in better make up because this game just melted it off from crying so much (nothing new there with me crying all the time but still)

[@JaredTVW]

Hey Frankie, hope all is well with you these days. I just wanted to suggest a potential couple video ideas, because I enjoy your content. There is a great mashup called Dead Fantasy that was created by an incredible battle choreographer named Monty Oum, who brought characters from Final Fantasy and pitted them against characters from the Dead or Alive games. They are fast paced, energized and incredible creations of characters you have fallen in love with doing things only a fan could imagine creating. Monty was a very talented guy who did accomplish a lot of incredible things. Sadly, he was not able to complete or finalize many of his works as he passed away. But some of his other works survive to this day, one of those being a show called RWBY. If you ever feel like doing something a little different, these are things that I think you might enjoy, especially as Monty was a huge fan of the Final Fantasy world himself. Either way, I hope all is well. Have a good one!

arydyn dlc when

[@tiffanywithers9298]

this game will make you cry too

[@tiffanywithers9298]

I HIGHLY recommend Kingsglaive the movie

[@Owldude7]

ffxv literally makes you look through all the photos of you and your best friends at before you die while a sad yoko shimomura piano+violin duet plays and THEN has noctis crying because he's accepted his fate but still can't handle the idea of being separated from his friends and THEN after the credits plays a whistful piano performing the in-game song that only plays at sunset also by yoko shimomura but it's in a major key now because the sun is finally rising after a decade of darkness and the music blossoms into a live orchestral cover of the main final fantasy theme by nobuo uematsu as the now dead noctis gazes upon the picture you picked while he sits by his betrothed who he could only properly reunite with after death and they gently kiss and peacefully rest next to each other in a beam of sunlight and surrounded by flowers and THEN a bunch of wedding bells play in the distance as its revealed that the yoshitaka amano original logo was luna the whole time and after a long lingering moment reveals another yoshitaka amano original of noctis accompanying her and THEN goes to the next menu with the completed logo but instead of a slow sad song at night it's a soft and evenpaced bittersweet piano+strings piece by yoko shimomura yet again and ALSO you can make cup noodles at camp and people will still call ffxv a "bad game"

[@LennartDorpmans]

Took the words right out of my mouth.

[@Official_MikeyT]

Remember just because people have an opinion, that doesn't mean that their opinion is correct. This was an amazing game, especially in its final form of the Royal Edition. I can't decide which I love more between the Kingdom Hearts series, the NieR series, the TWEWY series, or FFXV.

[@pennythejet]

I love this game.

[@babyplaneswalker341]

People only called the game bad because it took YEARS to finally come out and was lacking SO much for how long it took. It wasnt until many updates, patches and dlc later that the game you had was a completely different game from what you bought amd became the masterpiece thatvit is ...AND THEY CANCELED DLC THEY HAD PROMISED WOULD COME OUT (episode aranea) The game could have been even MORE amazing in the end.

[@everilliem3292]

Because it is bad, well WAS especially bad on release, majorly disappointing at the time, could of been much more. It had way more potential and the pacing Is horrible due to development hell, it's thrown together horribly, and can be jarring at times. Yes many updates did alleviate some of these parts. While the story is great imo, it's execution was horrible for the most part (having to play a prologue, watch animation, and a movie, just to fully understand the set-up) that's mainly what people are referring to when they say it's "bad" nothing to do with the story, as much as pacing and execution. The fact they hide story stuff behind DlC too, just no. Don't get me wrong I enjoy it, but I've not played it more than once, every other FF title I've done at least two runs over the years. Having a few good directed moments do NOT make up for the many shortcomings throughout the game. Like I said I enjoy it, and love the emotional story+composing, but as a whole, it fell flatter then it could have.

[@jasmincomeau-perigny4829]

Thank you for helping me revisit this game. FF15 is very dear to my heart because it came out merely 3 weeks after my dad died of cancer. This game hit so close to home back then. I am so glad when I see people appreciating this game like this. I have a tattoo of the sword of the father (Noctis's dad's sword) on my forearm fading it pixels with the words ''Walk Tall'' written above it. You reminded me of so much emotions I went through because of this game. Thank you! Keep doing what you do! Never getting tired of your playthrough videos!

[@drsparx1343]

I also lost my Dad shortly before playing FF15 for the first time. Like you, it is dear to my heart, and helped me through a very dark phase. Let's continue to walk tall, my friend.

[@MoonlessSky_]

Sorry for your loss, Walk Tall, my friend

[@annadziekonska7366]

my condolences for the loss :c while not for ff15, this was the case for me with the ff7 remake and i lost my dear pet so i very much treasure that game dearly (i know a pet and family member is different but i thought i would maybe share?) it's sometimes funny in a way, how games or any other form of media (books, shows, etc) can hold special meaning over bumps in our lives as i call it.

[@88zsurla]

Its not the same at all but FF15 will always have a special place in my heart because I met a friend thanks to it, he actually replied to one of my KZbin comments about the game and we ended up talking about a lot of things for 3.5 years and became very close. Unfortunately, he died on this day a year ago, he was only 32. So as much as people complain about this game, I will always remember it in a good light for the strong bittersweet ending and all the memories I had with Lance.

[@gamingwithash6671]

This game just hurts you, square did such a great job at making us cry at another sad video game!

[@Phantomyre]

I don't care what anyone says-- this game will always have a special place in my heart. Looking forward to your DLC reactions!

[@Stretch2016]

Haven't played the updated and dlc version yet, is it good?

[@voiceofamos]

@@Stretch2016 Yes.

[@Aiviymatoc]

the story was amazing, the actual game was not good imo. all the stupid sidequests, i hated it

[@DiddyCanFly]

I was genuinely surprised by how much I enjoyed this game.

[@zelohendricks51]

@ZΞROΞIGHTVɅLK I mean...skip the side quests?

[@gaiolinn]

I always have a sadistic grin while waiting for the photo on every reaction but then end up sobbing with them

[@mzsiel3736]

Parting with King Regis always get me. "walk tall, my son"

[@NatePossibilities]

Truly the Dewey Cox of Final Fantasy.

[@philiphartshorn]

Fantastic edit Frankie! This made me miss FFXV! So many great memories! I played it while living with 3 other male friends in a studio apt and we all related to 4 boys so much!!

[@Konirak]

Which one of you discovered a new recipe?

[@Alexarioda]

Ah, here we go again, time to relive the boys' trip! I think XV is my favourite FF, even if it isn't perfect. This game just ripped my heart, squished it and when I was laying down, kicked me in the stomach for a good measure. Good memories, 11/10, destroyed me completely and to this day I think about those boys. And they are still happy on a road trip in my head and no one can convince me otherwise. Thank you and your editor for the video! May we all walk tall :D

[@Py-dr2fv]

Its in my top 4. Ff7, ff6, ff9, then this. It was really good but it got rushed at the end only cause of pressure to release it.

[@zacatkinson3926]

me too

[@zempire9633]

This game also taught me how to enjoy life too. In life you can have your own road trip, and your own friends too. Call me crazy but I always try to extract something from the games, and this game taught me many.

[@lorenzolyleabadia1669]

That ending. I still remember the first time I've watched it back in 2016. I was still living in my parents house and it was around 3am. I was holding back the tears and was trying to not wake up my parents. Yep, even in its messy vanilla version, I still quite enjoyed the experience. Now, years later. Not only the ending could bring me to tears but a lot of added contents as well. The extended train scene on chapter 12, Episode Ignis, and Watching Ardyn accepting his Usurper status on his own terms.

[@pixel9719]

I love this game despite its flaws, glad that people are still playing and enjoying it!

[@alanmaclain2285]

it is funny how some people use the word "Flaw" like other games are perfect. Humans are full of flaws and they can't make anything flawless. You are not flawless either. understand it, digest it and zip up kid. You have to look at the things this game has to offer instead of picking up a magnifying glass and look for perfection.

[@millionshadesofdarkness2165]

I am a 30 year old man and FF15 royal edition ending made me cry and sob like a baby. It really made me appreciate the entire story being told

[@Nobodysurvivesevenonebit]

I love it

[@Aisubun]

Same Well not in terms of age but in terms of everything else lol

[@Modioman69]

Right there with you brother, I’ve got 9 years on you and this still hits hard. No shame in letting a good story have it’s intended effect. Says a lot about the storytelling I don’t care if not everyone was on board with the game.

[@Playingwith3D]

I'm twice your age and an old biker type. If this game ending and the high honor ending of RDR2 doesn't punch you in the heart I have to seriously call your humanity into question.

[@PaperBenni]

FF 15 is one of my favorite games. You look at any aspect of it in isolation and there are deep flaws, but somehow none of them mattered to me when I was playing it. It just has a vibe to it that is indescribable. Its world is somehow extremely grounded and fantastical at the same time, and has a cozy feeling to it that just want to makes you spend time there. The combat is pure fantasy fulfillment, and all the villages are amazing living places, and the party really sells this feeling of being on a road trip. It really captures the feeling of wanting to live in a moment, and if that moment is spent traveling somewhere, then by definition it is going to end. The time traveling mechanic solidifies this even in canon, noctis is continually going back to a road trip that he know he won't survive. Plus, no matter the raytracing and gigaflops that more modern games bring to the table, ther is something about the lighting in FF 15 that imo has not been surpassed since. The way bright sunlight is rendered is extremely believable yet still artsy

[@babyplaneswalker341]

The gladio thirst into the disappointment over him not still being shirtless when he removes his jacket is one of the funniest moments for sure

[@CrazeeAdam]

Lol sbe so badly wanted him to crush her between his biceps. And to strip all the time. So funny xD

[@CasaUwU]

30:17 Prompto's thoughts here definitely resonates with many people that feel lonely. It really is sad.

[@olima7015]

Oh my god I'm crying like a baby now!! I love how you didn't hide your feelings, XV made us all cry, this game is pure emotion!!

[@tobihachiu4991]

01:58 The beauty of watching someone filled with so much wonder, 1:03:50 only to find that it became a journey of anguish. In a world so bitter and cold sometimes it's refreshing to see someone else in as much heartwrenching pain as I felt during both my playthrough and through yours. The additional depth your emotions gave to these scenes made them more joyous, funny and heartbreaking. Thank you "Walk tall, my friend"

[@mikewazowski647]

That comment you made about how final fantasy has changed your life....I totally relate to every word you said. These games got me through some of the toughest times in my life and I'm forever grateful for squaresoft and square/Enix for make these imaginative masterpieces. I'm so glad that this generation has people like you who are willing to share their experiences and bring back the nostalgia that I see in your eyes as you make your way through these timeless adventures. Please keep these coming. Thanks.

[@naujolrac06]

I watched the movie, the anime, played the DLCs, and A King's Tale... The ending gave me too much emotional damage that my brother had to give me water to calm myself down. Fun times... I love it. 👍

[@TLiebCNV]

This was my first final fantasy game and the first game to ever make me cry. I loved it

[@alanmaclain2285]

Final Fantasy games are all masterpieces in their own way. They are like flowers, each has their own beauty and uniqueness . I suggest you play them all :)

[@r.daneel.90]

47:00 boys' stuff Of all FF, this is the one that really needs a remake. Its has everything to be a masterpiece. They just need to correctly piece the puzzle, and launch a Finished game.

[@Justarandomguy-d1g]

Agree

[@Outlaw8908]

Played this game during my mother’s final year or so of life. It was one of those games she got enjoyment watching me play through. Especially the chocobo’s and fishing, and watching me get wrecked by the tonberries. Swear those things were crouching tiger, hidden yoda.

[@apex_prey]

The fucking photos got me. The god damn photos. I broke down. A 40yo man. I broke down. Damn.

[@Amethyst_Canyon]

Hurts right aah what a game

[@paragonrobbie9270]

I was about 20 when I first played through this game. The ending had me break down more than any other game, surprisingly. So much so that I had to contact my friends group chat to tell them how much they meant to me.

[@ssstoma]

that moment when you talked about the emotional aspect of playing video games, and then you brought up on stream f+tm's "too much is never enough", i had to listen to it then and there (i hadn't had any idea that the song existed, even when I've known about ffxv since versus xiii) soooo i want to thank you for introducing me to one of the most beautiful songs i'll have ever heard in my lifetime

[@knightskye87]

I relate to Prompto so much. I have never felt so close to a character then when I played this game. Also, I’ve watched this video at least 5 times now. Always makes me feel good.

[@kaeganray]

"What can I say? You guys... are the best" breaks me every single time. I played this game at launch and loved it for what it was. Also, originally the section where you are just Noct with thing ring was way harder because of lot of the enemies were immune to death, so it turned into more of a stealth section.

[@absfinal]

in japanese noctis said "i love you"

[@superblanco444]

My personal favorite FF. Absolutely love the bond between the chocobros

[@dirgerena8553]

I'm glad that still have people play FF15 nowadays since this is an old game, I replay FF15 recently, a lot of impressive moments in this game, Luna's death scene is still heartbroken and makes me cry. I can say that this game is a masterpiece in FF HISTORY and not that bad (some said very disappointed), it was one of my favorite games always!

[@CrazeeAdam]

Lol people still playing FFX, FF9, FF8, FF6 for the first time now a days too. In comparison FF15 is quite new.

[@rem4242]

Even I played this when its release (really incomplete), still the ending is one of the most emotional i have played. No matter how many times I see this I cry everytime, the moment you see the picture in the throne is just too much of emotional damage.

[@Spectre153]

I was so surprised when i see some parts from the ending i was like wait this happened in the game

[@Kavriel]

I'm only a few minutes in but i can already tell this is going to be good. The humor hits it on the nail, the video is well edited, and damn it must have taken a long time to edit it.

[@Kavriel]

Damn. The ending always hits hard. I'm so upset with this game. It has so many good ideas, and one of the best endings, but i don't like how some parts of it felt rushed or weird. It's like i love it but i also kinda hate it. the whole DLC thing is a travesty. I followed the development closely and i kinda feel robbed you know ? Maybe i had my hopes too high. I don't know. It's just i have this feeling that it could have been an absolute masterpiece, and it's not there imo.

[@evilanagram]

Such a wonderful game. Yeah, it had problems, but the emotional core is so incredible.

[@Stretch2016]

First game I got teary eyed :(

[@HelloThere-bj9rw]

I can’t even finish it because It’s so sad

[@alanmaclain2285]

There is no such a thing as a perfect game. Humans are not perfect how can they create sth perfect. people who keep mentioning flaws are full of it themselves. How do they feel if others keep mentioning their flaw in their face instead of mentioning the things the things things they do right?

[@CrazeeAdam]

@@alanmaclain2285 calm down. It's just a game. And all these comments are still praising it. No need to bring people's actual lives into it about a game.

[@alanmaclain2285]

​@@CrazeeAdam of course it releated to people's personal life. what is your highest level of education? how can someone doesn't understand these basic thing. ït is just a game"well couple of hundred people worked on this game day and night for more than 10 years. you say it is just a game like with is sth worthless. if it is worth less stop playing. what do you do for living? Games are being made by humans. when haters attack the work that couple of hundred people worked on for 10 years and called it full of flaws. I would like to see what those haters do for living and whether their work is perfect or not. the answer is clear. they are far from being prefect too. as I said there is not such a thing as a perfect game because games being made by people and people are not perfect either. What I say is the truth. Read it, understand it before writing a comment to show the level of your education and embarrass yourself. I dont care that you are agree or disagree. don't tell me what to do.

[@ASithLordd]

i actually just finished replaying this game literally 2 days ago. Glad to see someone pick it up. Love this game very much and adore the music as well

[@miweneia]

update: Just finished watching this and my god ive no tears left to cry awhafshfafafgagggg 😭😭😭 i love your playthrough so much, its sooo emotional, perfectly portrays what the game did to me I played through the game couple months ago after completing FFVII Remake on PC and wow I was NOT prepared for what I got myself into. Definitely one of the top gaming experiences I've had, the characters, the story, the setting, the soundtrack, the world.. it's all so good! There was joy, sadness, anger, all types of emotions. Plot twists and heartbreaks and an ending that I still am not sure if I cried tears of joy or sadness at. As for the gameplay, it was incredibly satisfying, when it wasn't completely broken. The game is definitely very flawed, in terms of performance, mechanics and even presentation at times. But that's what makes it good and memorable - it's not perfect and I love it for that. Really happy to see more people experiencing it, sadly it's a very underrated game in the current era of gaming. A couple of things worth checking out as well are the Brotherhood miniseries (it's five 10-15 minute episodes telling the backstory of the characters and are definitely really well made) and the voice actors cast vlogs at EXP con 2017, the guys are awesome! And lastly, there's the Kingsglaive movie, though I personally still haven't watched it... oof.

[@GTTB-227]

The soundtracks for this game are absolute banger, and I still put them on the playlist till this day.

[@MaajidM]

I was in the game store holding in my hands this game, I knew the following weeks where gonna be difficult and I was gonna need something that distracted me... Then my sister send me a message... "Come home mom it's gonna leave us". That day she died from cancer, she withered in only 9 months. My friends where with me in the next days but eventually they return to their lives and routine. And I was there, in the middle of the back seat with this four guys. They make me laugh and cry. This is not my favorite Final Fantasy, but is the closer to my heart.

[@AnthonyChats]

Ok, this may very well be the greatest gaming cutdown video in the history of KZbin. It has everything. Heart, laughs, deep emotional breakthroughs (Prompto at the motel), grief, running gags (FFXV IS A HORROR GAME, #CursedPlaythrough), love and even booba jokes. It truly has it all.

[@ppmastervgm]

I just finished ffxv and I cried like a kid, and I remembered your channel that I saw a long time ago, I cried again but now with you hahaha, great game.

[@Modioman69]

I’ve got nothing but empathy for anyone who plays this game as it’s an emotional ride that will most definitely make you laugh, feel sentimental, laugh some more, smile, then rip your heart out before it calms you down and tells you it’s okay again in the end. This is the first in the final fantasy series to actually make me cry and I’ve been playing the FF series since 1998 as a kid. I appreciate you uploading this as a reminder of why I only beat this FF once because I couldn’t handle the emotion again lol. FFXV is highly underrated in my opinion due to the bromance and story telling with such a brilliant soundtrack. Thanks for sharing this. Got a laugh since I knew what was coming at the end and felt the same.

[@ItzCasp3r]

The part where you have to take one photo immediately broke me.

[@caminski4177]

Just beat this game for the first time a few days ago. Can’t even put into words how perfect the ending was and how much I loved the game. Absolutely not a perfect game over all but the heart is so strong throughout the entire thing that I loved it all the same.

[@alanmaclain2285]

I almost never leave comments, but this is not the case. So, it's 1:00 a.m., getting up at 4:00 a.m., and what am I doing? And I'm watching this video. At first I thought it was nothing special, I'll watch one more walkthrough and that's it, but no, I sat and watched the video from the beginning till the end. You are very emotional, very exciting and pleasant to watch this format, for me it is something new. And of course, by the end of the game, I was sobbing with you into the pillow because of the memories and emotions from the game. The best. I love, adore Final Fantasy XV. But it is so sad... Now my hands are shaking, and the pillow is all wet. Thank you for the memories and great time! Awesome video, looking forward to DLC's. Thank you.

I also started and finished the game 2 weeks ago, trully an amazing experience and forever will be one of my fav games ever. Had wanted to play it since day 1 but never got the chance. One of the best story games iv'e ever played in my life. I strive for the Luna/Noctis relationship, pain.

[@someonefromcanada2668]

I loved that game. And loved watching you play it. I cried so much playing the game and I cried just as much watching you play. The emotion build up in that game is amazing... I still don't understand why it worked so well on me. Music is part of it for sure...

[@Grrimhildr]

15:13 this has truly been the most final of fantasies

[@IsadellaEstelPolanco]

Glad you enjoyed one of my ultimate favorite games. This story is just so special. This game made me cry so badly too. Still not over Noctis dying at the end but that ending with him and Luna marrying at the end took me by surprise and it was so beautiful and I wouldn't stop crying. At first I was like why are they playing Stand by Me at the beginning. Seemed off. But when you played the game and go on this wonderful adventure with them and that ending hits you and they play that song it just so perfect for it and it's waterfalls throughout it all. I will never look at that song the same way again. Every time I hear it I think of FF15. And yep, this game had so many jump scares too. That double Noctis in the car was the funniest glitch. 🤣🤣🤣 But down pack one of my all time favorite games.

[@Superslayer1234]

Over a month after this was posted youtube seems to have recommended it to me. Im in LOVE with this work you've done and I'm glad there is still people who can enjoy the game even after the amount its been shit on due to its bad development. Look forward to catching up to your Final Fantasy backlog and your future streams. I had 3 friends who played this game with me the day it came out. We stayed up over 24 straight to accomplish so much in the game to the point we nearly completed the fishing list. The photo we chose for the end was just Gladio, Ignis, Prompto and Noctis. We all cried manly tears that day. I showed the game to my brother who enjoyed it so much but he didnt take the "final photo" option serious and he chose a photo of the Chonky Chocobo and Noctis in a sombrero; we died laughing to see it later.

[@pe-punkt.ka-punkt.]

in the last fiew days i watched all the videos from you playing FF8,9,10,7re and 15. the edit is awsome, the humor is on point... and the tears are dropping when i was crying too.. Thank you for your uploads of this

Masterful editing right here, can't even imagine how many hours dedicated to making this lol.

Picking the final picture for Noctis was too hard! I had tears in my eyes and I couldn’t pick from the hundred of Gladio ones! It was a very heartbreaking ending

[@Rivershield]

I will never forgive Square for not giving us the Luna DLC that would make that kissing scene canon!

[@dearthofdoohickeys4703]

Wow what a great playthrough, the video went by so fast! This is probably my favourite FF game ever. I know it isn’t perfect, and lots of people dislike it cause it didn’t meet certain expectations, but despite all that it has a way of hitting you right in the heart. The characters feel so real and fleshed out that sometimes I boot up the game just to “hang out” with the gang again.

[@GerbenVanDeCasteele]

The picture aspect of the game, i loved the most. Was always looking forward what kind of photo's Promto had made. And then the picture selection in the ending...destroid me.

Omg one of the best playthrough i’ve seen and it’s not even the whole lets play. Frankie Lollia, you are so adorable, funny and touching. I cried with you like a river. I played it 2 years ago, I thought it was over for me but noooo, aaargh the feels !! I don’t know if you played the dlcs, but you need to play Ignis, Prompto and Ardyn’s. (Gladio’s dlc is funny but not the best ) and you should watch the OVAs here on KZbin too, Prompto’s character is so touching. Thank you so much for sharing this, you really made my day cause I was feeling down. Now I feel better even after the bitterseweet story. And I wanna replay the game again thanks to you !

I couldn't help, but to subscribe to you and your twitch after the first tear 🤣. It's so refreshing to meet someone who shares my love for Final Fantasy! I'm 33 and they have always been my favorite franchise. I have so many fond memories of playing 1, 2, and 4 with my dad. Not to mention my youth was a roller coaster and they helped me to get through them by taking me out of reality for awhile. I haven't cried since I was 7, but FF XV was one of the very few things that just makes me so choked up and eyes water. I definitely put it on my top 5 FF games if not among the top 3 :). It's so good in so many ways imho.

Ugh how can you like this flawed game?... UGGGH did you even play the DLC?... uuugh... Kidding. Also! Remember when you was playing da game and a guy in chat started a hate rant about it, and then Iris in-game was like: "Do I smell salt in the air?" I laughed, a lot... it's the simple things. Alas it didn't make the video instead you get cursed JPEG animations

[@VII0777]

🤣 That cutscene after you messed with the lighting! They all look like they're covered in soot!

[@Ent3rname06]

Omg Frankie’s pain is so contagious bro. Enjoying the content! Keep up the good work!

[@lolzj7360]

OMG I haven't finished the video yet but I really enjoyed it so much so far! 😂❤ Thx for making it these long and it's gotta be the best reaction I ever had😍

[@lavieedenel]

I just found your channel, its so great to see your reaction, every reaction is the same as mine when I was playing this game few years ago, I love FF15, I cried too when prompto said that he doesnt have any friends, that he doesnt belong, I know this game is not real, but what is real anyway? even this life sometimes doesnt feel real, what real is how we feel inside, we cry and laugh, it doesnt matter if the thing that makes us feel that way is a game or a movie, what we feel inside is real, to feel is the only reason we live, to live is to feel, those who cant feel, they just missed the best thing of becoming human :)

[@Insanemonk11]

I'm a little late to this party, but Iris was infinitely better then Luna ever was in this game, she's pretty neat

[@DanFDTR]

10:37 my first playthrough of this game I was listening to the FF7 soundtrack in the car so when this cutscene ended and they were driving away in the rain One Winged Angel immediately started playing and I couldn't stop laughing at how perfect that was.

[@Aisubun]

Yeah the Prompto hotel scene also made me like "oh Prompto is one of my favorite characters" too lol

[@thenincompoopscoop6229]

I'm glad I found you on KZbin, you're a fun reactor to watch. XV is such an underrated game in my opinion. I loved it

[@novah4613]

This game really captured my heart, I’m so glad to see other people loving it just as much as I did.

[@Treizez34]

I don't care who or how old you are; when Noctis asks Prompto for his photos...you did NOT keep it together.

[@skribe]

It really did feel amazing to ride chocobos in the most realistic way possible for the first time in an FF game. I really enjoyed this FF for that and the open world experience

[@kuponk9903]

Sorry for my english, i'm French. I was thinking "im the only one to cry to prompto story" cause it remember me so much. It was an incredible video.Thank you so much.

[@TifffanyTaylor]

Ignus really adjusted his glasses & folded that sick ass boss.😂 Dude i feel validated seeing someone else cry with the photos at the end.

[@Kiobao]

If only this games dlc and the combat changes were at launch, I feel many more people would have enjoyed this game. It would be in my top 3 FF games if they also let us travel in the world of darkness more with story there, more time with Luna with events in altissia etc. let us travel a bit more free roam on our way to niflheim with events going on with more Aranea Highwind and cor bits and with less "I have a ring and I'm not afraid to use it." Part

[@hirus6603]

That's what happens when you have development hell and no clear direction for the game, not to mention the deceptive marketing. Thankfully they attempted to fix it, even though I had to buy the game twice just to get a somewhat coherent story.

[@Deronda1]

This game came under a lot of fire for not being fully finished. I couldn't care less. It's such a beautiful, heartbreaking game. So glad to see how in to the game you got!

[@kousuke87]

I finished the game today, about 3 hours ago and not ready to let it go. I immediately started looking for ending reactions and I can agree we all felt the pain.❤❤❤❤ I want my boys, and my regalia, and camping, and photos, and funny one-lines

[@c_eggy]

seeing all the photos at the end broke me too lol

[@psychobrit2008]

Thanks for the reaction video. I personally really enjoyed this game when it came out. If you enjoyed the game after checking out the dlc be sure to read the novel The Dawn of the Future. It continues the storyline and shows the canceled dlc (Luna's was my favorite) and alternate happy ending.

[@pinkmoogle]

Your video made me revisit my FFXV memories :) I cried like a baby at the end too. The editing is *chef's kiss*

[@HL-lk5ln]

"Game isn't real, but that feeling is." Well said.

[@xxbakaboi808xx]

Amazing journey and reaction. So glad we got to see it!

[@shaunbonjovi4309]

I've been obsessed with this game recently and I needed this vid thank you

[@KyonKyon-q5n]

I so love your reaction! From Japan😊

[@icerainbear911]

I thought only FFX could make men cry, until XV appeared

[@jonovah]

I watched my brother play this game and we both sat in silence with tears in our eyes at the end 😭

[@heyafnaaan]

watching frankie playthrough as im finish the game too is an emotional rollercoaster! love your work , keep it up

[@arielmetalfan]

Girl,I've recently discovered your channel because of your reaction to FF8 ending (my favorite FF, literally have Griever on my skin). Love you and love your videos!

[@Yilue]

46:59 cant beleive I never noticed Prompto uhh slapping noctis cheeks

[@lordzero-fall963]

FFXIII had an amazing soundtrack. Never understood the hate on that game.

[@lolzj7360]

Agreed,even the story is very touching.

[@Dotoku.Others]

FFXV is one of the oddest FF games to me. On one hand it's awful due to the story telling and the clunky combat. Then on the opposite end of the spectrum you have fantastic characters (other than Lunafreya, who was great in the movie then became a non-character in the game), a fantastic soundtrack, and great visuals. FFXV had the potential to be the best FF game since 10, but the development hell the game went through really screwed the final product over. I'm just glad they didn't drop the Ardyn story and retold it with Emet-Selch in FFXIV.

[@nicogalax]

I wouldn't say they retold his story lol both characters have similarities but they are different

[@Dotoku.Others]

​@@nicogalax re·tell /ˌrēˈtel/ verb tell (a story) again or *differently.* Other than taking away the betrayal plot point, they're almost the same character. They even took the corruption aspect of his story and used it for the WoL.

[@nicogalax]

@@Dotoku.Others welp, for the corruption part u are right but I see Ardyn and Emet as completely different villains

[@satyakisil4289]

This game suffers from Halo 4 syndrome. A desperate attempt to make the game more mainstream leading to a broken combat system, characters who aren't properly explored and plot holes behind a paywall. It's painfully obvious that a solid A+ game has been deliberately watered down to a shaky A game simply to pump more cash from the consumer. On the other hand, expecting an A game from the start would yield no disappointment.

[@skribe]

@@satyakisil4289 i loved the combat system, what were the gripes ppl had about it?

[@andrewrenshaw2741]

I always forget not to watch Frankie videos at 3am, if I'm not wearing earbuds it WILL wake up the entire block.

[@iceman10129]

"I am a goddess. You do not command me" made my day. (she really is)

[@pwkn86]

I 100% resonate with what you said in the begining about streaming/gaming. i am not a streamer but as a gamer, and someone who doesn't have many friends or family to share such experiences with, i defiantly resonated with it.

[@michaelhightower669]

I really love watching your edits. They are always so funny.

[@samuelmarques9937]

This is even better than ff 14 or 16 ahah. This is what I call a good story

[@RobSwizz1e]

48:53 - I was reading. I appreciates ya, editor fren. Great video here! It was a touching story, but still flawed. I wish they do the next story justice and release a full game and not the whole 13 year debacle or changing it multiple times.
