I really enjoyed ffxv and thought the ending was pretty good, but around chapter 8 the story starts feeling rushed and here are some of my problems.
Why does Gladio leave the group? Only reason I see is to make a point for the DLC.
Why bring the fact that Prompto is a magitec up, soley for the point of him being able to unlock one single door?
Why and how did Ignis lose his eyes? Again, that would be only neccessary for the DLC
What about Ifrit? If you don't read anything outside of the game, he has no point in being there, as he wasn't explained at all.
Where was Noctis all these years? We just see him 10 years later and Umbra gives him a letter from his friends, like they waited exactly 10 years to contact him.
There's so much they could have added, like flashbacks of Ardyns past or the events leading to the Imperial capital being overrun by demons and Iedolas ending up dead.
Also I felt Raven should've had more screentime as he wasn't such a bad guy after all. Just having him there for one short scene with the guys and another scene with Luna before killing him offscreen wasn't fair.

Ifrit is one of the six.

Hajime Tabata had addressed Reavus's screen time as well as fleshing out the story's late chapter events. ETA is unknown because it will have to be localized, but as of right now, it's on the way.

Why was Ifrit there? I watched Kingsglaive and Brotherhood but I don't remember him being mentioned.
