Hey, an old FFXV video... not like it matters since I don't think this game gets updates at this point lol

I decided to revist FFXV because I wanted to try the new stuff they added with the Royal edition + the DLCs. I pretty much got my Platinum trophy like a month after the game came out, so I missed a lot of the patches. I still haven't done the DLCs due to other games (lol), but I did check out the new stuff in the base game and also the Comrades mode.

Man did they change Insomnia a lot. I remember this place being quite linear and now it's a proper zone worth exploring. From the base capturing missions to just random quests to help the Kingsglaive members, it was a good revamp. And then there's this, the Omega fight. Oh boi is this an annoying fight. Omega itself is not a hard boss but he takes waaaaaaaaaay too little damage. I don't think my level/gear was the issue, since I was quite high level (I did everything in the base game and I even farmed a bit for more skill points back in the day, so my level should at least be higher than expected). I even used full Royal Arms loadout just to get those extra stats, not to mention that only RA seemed to be effective against Omega and actually do more than 5 damage a hit. The Armiger mode from Royal Edition also helped a ton and was my primary way of dealing dmg, Dynastic Stance is just waaaaay too cool and strong.

Of course, him getting stuck (around 4:40) made the fight waaaaaaay easier, and even then, it still took over 10 minutes to deplete his remaining HP lol. I was a bit afraid of using any abilities after he got stuck just in case that would make him get unstuck. That and it randomly hitting his antenna which makes him go berserk, which is why I just pressed attack and called it a day lol

I honestly do not think this was a good fight. Nothing in this was interesting, and he was mostly just an HP sponge that occasionally OHKO'd you for no real reason. That and Petrify which was also annoying. Oh, and again, the antenna thing. Such an easy target to hit which just makes the fight way more annoying than it already is.

Maybe I was doing something wrong, who knows. As it stands, it's just an annoying fight with a meh reward if I remember correctly.
