I definitely understand the disappointment. I think at this point it's just best to appreciate the expansion we got and the changes that were made. I do want to say that I had no idea what we would be getting, only that it is large enough to merit fast travel points and (apparently) a drivable vehicle. It's best to not overcomplicate our expectations for expansions.
In the end, we get 4 new boss fights that tie directly into the end, and from what I've seen all are very well done and show why each bro (and Cor) are willing to fight for Noctis. We also got new quests there, the ability to fight with our Glaive, tons of new exposition dialogue, new monuments that tell us about some of the past kings, and additional cutscenes.

I wish this was the case but there is dialogue in the files that say "Now the old girl is ready to take on whatever the city can throw at us" or something like that, implying it's actually in the city itself. I'll make a post on all of this later.
Plus, it also detracts from the Iris phone call, which implies Noctis is never supposed to see Iris again.

I saw your comment on the other thread and make sense the gates in Insomnia being there to the car travel around the city.

Just thanks for understanding me. Im happy for all they make, at the end of they adding things is better than nothing but thanks for, understanding (its hard for me trying tohe explain that things in English) my complain about the city and what could have been.

I think, if we ever see Iris/Aranea/Cindy again via a timeskip/WoR expansion, it will be either through a significant Comrades update or a dedicated DLC to them out of the 4 new ones we are getting. This may follow what she was thinking during this time period and how she became a daemon slayer.

i expected a city in ruins and thats what i got, i dont think theres much room for variation in a setting like this (all dark, same lightning, war-torn buildings and streets) and they decided to focus on the citadel.
of course its not perfect but its easily better than the original map, which you could traverse in 15m or less, now we have more sidequests, scenes, bosses, lore... its an improvement.

Maybe for a Niflheim expansion, Square Enix should advertise what to actually expect in there, and make sure no story scenes are miss-able, they did well here, but the Cor scenes should've been more tied to the main story rather than side content, but I'm satisfied with what I saw of the Royal Pack DLC, and I'm looking forward to playing it. We should make our voices heard on stuff like this to improve future expansions, on how what worked and what didn't.

You know I love you so much but man dont say that... of course I was expecting a city in ruins, all dark, and everything but man, a little just a little variation between zones or streets. The problem, its hard to understand but I think paper did, is that it feels the same map but literally bigger and I was expecting something more, you have the feeling wherever you go you are in the same places but the details are changed.
Was expecting a, little more variety there, long roads as we had in mind and walking through them to go to other interconnected zones around the city.
But what we get is just the castle surround expanded and the stupid and useless inderground shit (they could have reused that resources in really expanding the city through the roads and create interconnected places) that no one asked for.
Again, of course adding things is better than nothing man. But they could have done million times better with the same resources. Thats what I think.

I still stand by what I said in that if you could drive around Insomnia they would have showed it in the trailer. It’s a feature that would make people want to buy the pack.
It’s clear it was planned. The question now is whether t was scrapped, or could still be implemented.
