Part 12: Attack on Titan... FINAL FANTASY VERSION!!

As I meandered around doing sidequests... I walked up to a Royal Tomb and took another Royal Arm with no one to stop me whatsover. Alright then.

Either way... I continued following Mr. Suspicious (Ardyn) and he was somehow able to open up a blockade. You know what? It's just too obvious at this point. No reason to say it. Still though. SO. MANY. RED. FLAGS.

We head in and make our way further in. Only to find another Royal Arm. O... kay...?

Then...

HI TITAN. GUESS IT'S ABOUT THAT TIME.

Spoiler

You know... I think Square-Enix did this on purpose. I really do. Due to it's popularity.

BUT GOD AM I HAPPY THEY DID. TIME FOR ATTACK ON TITAN FINAL FANTASY VERSION!!

We get forced down to a lower area but Gladio saves us before we fall to our doom. We're forced to go further with only Noctis and Gladio. Eventually... well...

What did you expect?

EPIC FIGHT WITH TITAN.

The reference would have been complete if you could attack the back of it's neck. Sadly you can't. Did I try? No but I'm pretty sure you can't.

It wasn't really that hard. Was it because I was over-leveled? Probably but who cares. The empire showed up and started attacking it too. But it's not like they were helping Noctis. and co. You could even attack them if you wanted to. I did occasionally. Did I do it to prolong the fight in an attempt to find a way to attack Titan on the back of his neck? I don't know...

Oh I almost forgot. Even though I kind of wish the battle theme was Attack on Titan Opening 1, which probably would have fit more, but the actual theme?

Well...

Spoiler

..........................

WELL THERE'S NO QUESTION NOW. BEST. GAME. EVER.

After damaging it enough (I even used my new unlocked Armiger) the group barrage Titan with Blizzard and freeze it. We also get a scene showing that Luna met with Titan as well which explains why Titan wanted to get Noctis' attention I guess. Still though... Luna... you're quite the badass.

But... things are still pretty bad.

OH GOD IT'S MR. SUSPICIOUS AGAIN. AND HE'S THE FREAKING CHANCELLOR OF THE EMPIRE. I. FREAKING. KNEW IT.

He offers to rescue us. UGH. GODDAMMIT. WE CAN'T DIE. There's no choice... UGH.

Eventually... we get stranded at Wiz Chocobo Post. WITH NO FREAKING CAR. OH WONDERFUL. THANKS GAME.

We see BEST DOG (Umbra) again who wants us to follow so I oblige. We then meet a mysterious woman named Gentiana. I really didn't understand what she was saying. She basically spoke in fairy tale language. But the group seemed to summarize it. Also we saw a flashback with kid Luna and Noctis talking about how Noctis is the chosen and how he'll do his best to fulfill the prophecy or whatever it is he's supposed to do.

It looks like we're getting godly help. First Titan. Now Ramuh. We basically have to go around touching Runestones. To be honest... this actually surprised me. Because normally... god-like entities have to have the crap kicked out of them. They don't normally help. But then again all Final Fantasy games have summons right? Okay then.

With no car... IT'S CHOCOBO TIME. PERFECTION.

I was able to touch the first 2 runestones. Sometimes I avoided the empire other times I had to deal with them. But being over-leveled... they weren't a problem. As I did so we get more fairy-tale language from Gentiana.

We make our way to a dungeon for the final trial to obtain Ramuh. But that's where I stopped. BTW... my Chocobo use got my Chocobo to level 4. Yeah. You have to use them quite a bit for this part. It'd take to long to go on foot. Good thing I did that Deadeye quest.

I can't use the car. Looks like I'm stuck on the main story until I get it back. See? It's a good thing I'm over-leveled now isn't it?

Next time:

More summon unlocking. Where the hell is the car? Do we have to now make multiple Metal Gear Solid references, which is a game I never played and never will, in order to get it back?

The answer?

Probably.
