Oooh interesting. I think that's a great little reward for the dungeons, much more than the random items and weapons.

I just realized, is it just me, or is Insomnia's ruins more detailed than it was originally?

I got it today. To be honest I'm a bit dissappointed. The boat feels nice but offers nothing but more fishing spots (and I HATE fishing in games, it pisses me off in every Zelda, and was tough for me in Nier -_-) and photo ops. I had hopes for checking out smaller islands or Anglegard but oh well :/ I just started Insomnia and it seems nice. And I'm also a moron because I spent a few hours doing Cindy's quests and racing games on my old save and then I forgot that I was playing in the past...so nothing happened and I got no car in WoR lol. xD

yes, they updated the assets a bit, they look more detailed than before.
was really noticeable while you summon and can view the entire city from above.

It was really cool to see the way the city was segmented and raised on different levels from that angle. Plus the moonlight piercing through the miasma from where Bahamut's sword fell is the icing on the cake, really makes for an even more beautiful version of an already visually stunning scene.

A very cool discovery I made in the Royal Edition is that they fixed the aesthetic of the warp-hanging. Previously you would hang from a generic blade, but now you hang from the sword you have equipped!
So the one handed sword that Noct is using will be stuck in the wall that he's hanging down from. And if Noct does not have a sword equipped, it'll be the Engine Blade <3
EDIT: took pictures of all available sword designs as of now

Not royal weapons lol. But it's great that they did this, I hated how before it used to be a low-level generic blade (that the person may not even had in their possession). Now even DLC sword work, I tested with the Lighting's Blade and Ragnarok.
Next we hope for royal arms and other weapon animations to get this treatment, is was there in past trailers/demos, they have to bring it back

I'm pretty sure it's been that way for awhile, I haven't seen him use just the generic sword while I've had a specific short sword equipped since ED (and Comrades obvi since there's no short swords).
Here's a shot from at least January for him using my Ultima Blade, know I for sure saw him use Ragnarok when it came out as well.

Ultima Blade yes. But as for the other ones, I tested this in Summer 2017 and it was just the generic blade for all non-engine-blade swords.

I was seeing the royal edition credits from the main menu and i saw this image on it, but i can't remember having seen Noctis and Bahamut together outside the crystal or Insomnia.

Chapter 14 is now the best chapter of FFXV for me, Chapters 10 and 13 come close second and third, thanks to the Royal Pack. It now truly feels like an epic finale due to the story content, expanded Insomnia map, character involvement, whether it would be people or the Astrals, and the new main bosses added to it, as well as updating Ardyn in some way. I'm proud of Tabata and his team for improving the finale, it is more impacting, engaging, and satisfying than the original Chapter 14 was. I'm looking forward to Episode Ardyn, the DLC Episode I'm most excited about, and the other three DLC Episodes as well.
What I find most impressive about the new Chapter 14 is how effectively it magnifies what the game originally was.
Noct was always meant to be the sacrificial savior king, but the scenes with Cor and the Kingsglaive magnify that aspect of him.
The return to Insomnia was always meant to be bittersweet as a result of the city's destruction, but Ardyn setting the city on fire really drives that home.
Ardyn was always a petty and vicious troll of a main villain, but him setting the city on fire and using the new and old Walls to torment Noct more makes him even more of that.
The section just before Ardyn was always meant to reach the peak level of epicness, but the new fights take that up to eleven.
Noct's relationship with Luna was always meant to be one where he could never reach her, and the new cutscene doesn't betray that arc.
And finally, the final boss was always meant to be more of a personal battle than a test of one's ability as a gamer, and it's still that, even if Ardyn got a few cool new moves.
It definitely feels like the new Chapter 14 is how the game wanted to end all along. It just took the extra year of work to actually implement it. XD;
