Final fantasy XV is finally here and with it dozens of hour of awesome adventuring and questing.<\/p>\n

Before starting your mammoth journey however, there are a couple of must-know Tips and tricks to get the most out of your time with the game.<\/p>\n

Check them out below:<\/p>\n

\n

You don’t have to do every side-quest<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Many of the side-quests in Final Fantasy XV are simple fetch quests or delivery tasks.<\/p>\n

Others are more story-driven, but even these you don’t have to rush through as you can return to the world and mop up even once the game has been completed.<\/p>\n

In fact, some side-quests and missions make finishing the game almost mandatory and provide a decent end-game.<\/p>\n

Try to complete your questing during the day<\/strong><\/h3>\n

While many missions and quests require you to stay up late, the FF XV’s open-world is a lot tougher at night.<\/p>\n

New, tougher monsters appear making travelling a much more arduous task.<\/p>\n

These monsters also bestow much more XP and better drops than those present during the day, so you could also use night-time to your advantage.<\/p>\n

Use Ignis<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Without delving too much into spoiler territory, one of your party’s characters, Ignis, has some very useful abilities.<\/p>\n

Liberal use of his “Regroup” skill can turn even the most dificult battle to your advantage.<\/p>\n

As such, we highly reccomend you upgrade him as quickly and as early as possible.<\/p>\n

\"camping\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Watch the movie and anime first<\/strong><\/h3>\n

One of the biggest complaints surrounding FF XV\u00a0is that the story can feel incredibly disjointed at times.<\/p>\n

There is a relatively easy way to remedy this however \u2013 watch Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

As a standalone movie it\u2019s not particularly great and it still doesn\u2019t explain everything that\u2019s happening in Final Fantasy XV, but it does explain a\u00a0lot of vital backstory and character motivations.<\/p>\n

In addition we suggest you check out the anime series \u201cBrotherhood<\/a><\/strong>\u201d to get an even better idea of what\u2019s going on.<\/p>\n

Stock up on potions<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Potions are admittedly a tad broken in FF XV, but they’re also vital to get though some of the tougher portions of the games.<\/p>\n

If you have enough potions in your inventory it’s almost impossible for your party to get completely wiped.<\/p>\n

They’re also dirt-cheap, so there really isn’t any excuse not to have at least a few on you.<\/p>\n
