Yeah, as much I try to guess it, I know I'm probably totally off because of that statement. It would be nice to know rather than waiting a year to figure out what the last DLC will be.

Yes, but it's also important to keep in mind that they have stated that how well the Royal Edition does will be a key factor in the future of the upcoming expansions, so how "complete" they will be, for now, isn't entirely set on stone. When there's the possibility of those expansions being cut down due to the Royal Edition underselling, then it's understandable that people don't want an alternate ending to take away any additional resource from them.

The revival option is the obvious solution, once one considers how that might actually work.
What is the core theme of FFXV? Salvation comes through sacrifice.
How, then, might one go about restoring the world? Through the willingness to sacrifice oneself utterly for the world.
Episode Ignis Verse 2 already suggested that the crystal's power could do Noct's will if he was willing to cooperate with its plans for him. All you really need to do is take that to its logical conclusion and go full apocalypse -- through his sacrifice, the sacrificial king achieves the power to remake the world and combine visible and invisible realms.

Honest question: Where do you all think Episode Ardyn will take place? I personally always imagined it taking place in Niflheim with his car (he has a freaking car), but in a part of Niflheim we haven't seen yet (the whole southern part of the continent is impossible to see).
Any other ideas where it may take place?

There has been sooo much wasted resources in this game it's ridiculous, Assassins Creed festival, Moogle festival, timed quests, stupid costumes, alternative endings. All resources they could have used elsewhere. Instead what do we get? Unfinished game, a buggy Comrades that's also half complete and episodes that feel disjointed from the main game. Episode Gladiolus for example is stupid when you think about it, if you try to go to where the episode starts in the main game it's just a wall, a fricken path leading to a wall lol. That's why it should have been integrated in the first place, instead of menu's on the main screen.

Hopefully they will be able to successfully integrate the character episodes into the base game in the future.
I do agree that some of the things that was worked on for the game weren't a good idea, or a waste of resources.
For some reason, I think the endorsements and co-ops helped in part to pay for the game's ongoing development and production, so I don't mind them as much only of the grounds that they're funding the project.
The only thing I find truly a waste is Comrades.

About changing the ending.. is a tragic story, not on any way they can put a happy ending. The original ending is perfect, don't touch it! Tabata!!!

Well, if you really wanted to make a "bad" ending, you could have one of the DLCs imply or outright state that the Starscourge will always return in some form. That would have Eos and its people trapped in a never-ending and destructive war between light (Crystal/Astrals/Chosen) and dark (Starscourge or equivalent), with the tragedy of Solheim or similar things with Niflheim and Lucis doomed to repeat ad nauseam, even if each tragedy is separated by millennia. That's the darkest additional conclusion I can think of with the existing lore and conclusion they have, which I don't think they'll change.

I think the Royal Edition will have good sales, but we'll see what happens. Let's not forget, they could also make funds from the sales of the Windows Edition.

In some ways, I suppose, but in others, it'd be kind of the opposite.
My proposal for FFXV, in contrast, would reward Noct's obedience to the will of the gods and the crystal and result in a world where the fantastic would be even more closely woven into people's lives.
The comparison I would make is to the resolution that seems more and more inevitable for Kingdom Hearts where Sora opens the door to Kingdom Hearts and remakes the world. (That series, of course, has already introduced the possibility of remaking the world and seems to have little other way to right what is wrong in spite of Nomura's clear desire to end by making everything right, hence my confidence as to the nature of its ending. =P)
The way I understand it, Lightning Returns involves an inevitable apocalypse that Bhunivelze wants to use to recreate the world the way he thinks it should be, and Lightning changes the nature of the world that is about to come into existence by resisting Bhunivelze and denying him his ideal world. In the process, the world is shorn of all of its fantasy elements and humanity is able to live free from the shackles of the old gods.

some weapons ended up so small that you can't appreciate their design anymore.
