Indeed, and they seem to really put some effort into the ports as well... well, more or less effort, I am pretty sure we gonna need another "fixes something dll mod" for this game.

I can't remember a time where Square-Enix released a FF game so quickly on PC.
This does seem to be the quickest they've released a FF game on PC, which is a very nice change.

Hopefully they'll release everything, including all the DLC, in one package.
I quite enjoyed FF15, though the later chapters get really very grim and bleak. The early open world part is a lot of fun, though.
Video looks pretty incredible. I wonder what kind of setup you'd need to run it that way, but phew.
From the Nvidia article:
"Post-launch console DLC (EPISODES GLADIOLUS, PROMPTO and IGNIS, as well as the FINAL FANTASY XV MULTIPLAYER EXPANSION: COMRADES) is included"
The ansel screenshots on that nvidia page are awesome.

Ugh...I bought my ps4 for this game but haven't really had a time I wasn't busy with other games to play much of it. I think im in like the 4th act. One thing that was making it hard was doing the hard dungeon crawls incurred reduced hp levels (no amount of avoiding would prevent this, simply getting hit would bring down your max hp of you and your party) requiring you to use elixirs. Elixirs aren't cheap and money in the game is finite. Most of your money is from monster hunts, something that you can't repeat. Done with monsters hunts? grinding monster trash loot is very slow money gains.

Nice. I didn't buy this for PS4 because I assumed this was coming eventually.
