Missed opportunity....Ch.13/14 spoilers

[fat_moogle]

I completed FFXV this afternoon and I'm pretty disappointed with the game overall, Chapter 13 in particular. Damn, was that a borefest. To me it felt like Tabata struggled with the fact that FFXV was no longer a part of the Fabula Nova Crystallis mythos, so he had to think of something else to quickly fill some plot holes but in turn made even bigger plot holes. I mean, the similarities with FFXIII are there. Ardyn pretty much took the role of Barthandalus, who we know guided Lightning and her fellow l'Cie's to fulfil their focus of bringing down Cocoon. Of course here Ardyn pushed the group along the right path to ensure that Noctis could restore light to the world and put an end to his own madness. When Noct touched the Crystal he fulfilled his focus and entered Crystalstasis, waking up 10 years later. And don't tell me that you didn't think "Cie'th!" when you fought Ravus. It was practically the Cid battle.
