Final Fantasy XV

Date played: February 19th
Platform: PS4

I managed to play a few minutes of FFXV and continue with the story. Noctis and his friends enter the Citadel in Lucis and are immediately greeted by Behemoth King, a large monster. This battle was pretty easy, I just had to be careful when he launched his stronger attacks.

Then, we spoke with Ardyn, and he's got quite a surprise for us... He had an ace in his pocket, the fire god Ifrit!

The fire god is well represented in this game compared to other appearances in Final Fantasy. He has a human face, but with giant horns and a bunch of fire burning around his body. He sits in a giant throne with a kind of nonchalant look. That doesn't stop him from being fucking deadly though. He shoots out walls of fire for a while until I dealt enough damage to him. He then got up and started fighting us head on, flying around, shooting fireballs and such.
Noctis looks at Ifrit as Shiva freezes his nasty ass
He was a pretty tough foe, but soon enough, I was able to summon Shiva herself! Her summoning animation is fantastic... She freezes Ifrit and kisses his frozen lips as he becomes motionless. I'm sure there's more coming, but I had to stop playing for now.
