Or that other thing. Completely on the other side of the spectrum. The Shaunas are rusty at this game, but not rusty enough at being terrible Let's Players. We take on the Thunder Plains, if you can even call it "taking on"

Apologies for the game sound cutting out every time we talk, we are still practising with our new capture program, it won't happen again! ...

Since it's re-release in 2013, Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn (now Heavensward) has managed to keep players engaged with consistently updated and new content. It's been having an amazing run, garnering with rave reviews across the board and a strong and rising subscription base. The latest patch, titled 'Revenge of the Horde' was released just last month the game and has given the game yet another shake up with new content to be cleared. Some of the content has forced strong opinions from me. Not all of them are good... ...

This week on Lets Play FFX-2 HD, we reach two more episode completes! We figure out the mystery of the accidents in the Mi'ihen Highroad, and we watch Kimarhi beat some sense into the upstart Ronso Youths of today, with his fists.

All it took in both instances for people to change their ways was to tell them they were responsible, like one time. Kids these days, amirite? ...

Square Enix Japan opened a new chocobo-themed contest encouraging fans to follow the Japanese official twitter account.


When a certain number of followers is reached on the account, more prizes are unlocked. There are physical prizes (right now it's been a stationary set and a T-trout) they are only available to Japanese followers. Luckily for Western fans, digital prizes are being unlocked and everyone can enjoy them! So far it's only two twitter icons and two wallpapers but more prizes are set to unlock once they hit 50,000 followers! When that's hit, a set of autographed illustrations will be given out.

On the plus side, the site also gave us more looks at the games Chocobos! Check out the prizes so far! ...

In the recent Gameinformer, director of Final Fantasy XV, Hajime Tabata, sat down to talk about the Regalia and it's new winged features. Don't worry fans, it wont be something that you will get from the beginning.

At the recent Final Fantasy XV Uncovered event, we were shown a trailer that showed the first ever full drive-able car in a Final Fantasy game sprout wings and fly off into the sky. Many of our own users were impressed:

In the recent Gameinformer interview, Hajime Tabata gave us a few more details on this upgrade to the Regalia. This upgrade wont be easy to get, according to Tabata. It also wont be able to be upgraded early in the game. This leads us to believe, naturally, that it will be available near the end of the game like most airships are in the Final Fantasy series, and if past experiences can be learned from, there may be a series ...

Thanks to our great investigative skills we found an email to one of the CEOs of Square Enix detailing various updates to the new, not yet announced, Final Fantasy XVI! Check out what we've found: ...

In this week's episode, we go to Luca as promised last time with the best of intentions to get things done.

Things don't go well, as we get the old Blitzball bug. Our rag tag bunch of friends (and 2 others) face off against the pros. Little did we know these guys are way more professional than we expected.

Will the Kilika Beasts V Gullwings battle live up to your expectations!? Probably not, we're pretty bad at this. Also we apologise for the amount of blitzball played. ...

The fruits of our labour are finally coming together and the final chapter Episode Completes start pouring in! Well, we see one. That's good enough. The stress of this though... it's already strong, I don't think the Shaunas will make it through!

We also see some hypello gettin' it ON, a dead guy chatting a lot and some more of the leaders of Spira pointing guns at each other, except this time it's in the past. Exciting times, and more to come! ...

So, Yuna, here's how concerts normally work. You have someone come out and sing to get the crowd going and then you come on, sing about 10 songs and then head off unless you get an encore.

What happened here was you took everyone to the worst place in Spira for a concert, you let the crowd fight and you only sung one song. If people didn't come here for free I'm sure they would be asking for their money back.

I guess there is just that little to do in Spira, right?

...

In this episode of Let's Play Final Fantasy X-2 HD, we decided to ignore sagely advice and turn off the charm bracelet for the Thunder Plains.

Turns out this was a bad idea, as a 5 minute job took much, much longer than expected.

At least we learned Fireworks! ...

Let's do some CommSpheres then!

Haha, only kidding, that's two hours of our lives we're not getting back - not gonna make you sit through it too. Instead, you get to join us as the Gullwings chase down Tobli! The little scamp has got himself in trouble! Don't worry though, he's alright. And we're gonna finish up the quest with a bit of a dance party! Yay! ...

Final Fantasy Portal is a Square Enix app available for iOS and Android and they just hit their first anniversary! In a limited time event they're offering Final Fantasy II for free on your smartphone! ...

Running into the Djose Temple we find anothing familiar face wanting to kill us. Pretty normal for The Gullwings at this point. Things take a turn for the worst when Yuna falls in a deep dark hole in the ground and is man-handled by a priest.

This week is filled with endless terror and dank may-mays. At least one of these is true.
...

As previously promised, in this episode of Let's Play Final Fantasy X-2 HD we climb a mountain at the request of the Elder Ronso (who is like 27 btw) to take care of the youth of today.

Don't worry though, the Shaunas know what is hip and cool. We will try to win them over with dank mey-meys and pogs. That'll sort them! ...
