FFXV had to go man. The FFXV project was way too ambitious to handle itself that portions of the game was either cut or turned to separate downloads for people to experience portions of the full game (wait what am I saying, it's not even a full game at this point). FFXV basically took the Shenmue route of trying to absorb in many things that was more than they can handle, except Shenmue legitimately pulled this off and was actually successful and even placed on a earlier hardware which was the Dreamcast. FFXV on the other hand, was far too ambitious for it's own good. They even had a massive budget for it and most of the money was just tossed around with their co-workers like it's a strip club dancing around the tables in Square Enix Cafe.
This shit has been going since more news came about it on releasing it on PS3 which was like over 7 years go. FFXV was a cluster-mess of a massive mountain that's just been sitting there since the day dinosaurs walked the earth and that shit is still there unchipped.

With the recent content, Episode Ardyn looks incredible. Might be the episode like Ignis where I'm super curious about.
FFXV x FFXIV collaboration looks cool, but again, this stuff is just adding to the pile of stuff that FFXV can't seem to handle, so just throw it in there with no point of the consequences. This collaboration might of had potential into something big and great than just a standard little episode and even I'm not too overly hype about it. Might be something I'd break on PC for fun shit.
This announcement somewhat of a mix. Disappointing that Aranea and Luna was cancelled and yet they expected me to feel some type of sadness for the Noctis episode. Like this man already has the full campaign, I don't need an episode for this kid.
