Hey gang,
I recently picked up FFXV, and I've been playing it for the last 2 days. I'm really enjoying it. I like the characters, I like the banter on the road, it looks brilliant, and for the most part, the combat is that sort of faceroll style that makes you feel pretty strong.
Now, I'm worried about how I'm playing. On my first day, I played for 4 and a half hours, mixing up hunts, sidequests and main story progression. Today I played it for 5 hours, and did NO main story quest stuff. I literally just arsed about doing sidequests and hunts. It was only at the end of my session did I go and meet up with Glad's sister and pushed the story along a little bit. I'm currently just about to go look for the royal weapon behind the waterfall.
Now, I'm not sure if I'm going to burn myself out really quick. Like someone else mentioned on this board, a lot of the sidequests are basically "Go here, collect X after walking half a mile and bring it back". Hunts are marginally better, but I still overlevel for most of them to an insane degree. To put it into perspective, I was level 25, and the story quest recommended level 10.
Will I enjoy the game if I keep playing this way? Or should I just focus on story stuff. Open to all opinions!
