I love the voice acting of Darin De Paul for Ardyn. He did a great job.

I haven't really touched much of the post game stuff. New Game+ doesn't really appeal to me just yet either - so I think I'm going to take a break and wait for some of the additional content to be added.
I thought the same thing... and then I found myself thinking "You know, I really kind of rushed through the game the first time. I should really go through again and take my time." Shortly after thinking that I started up a New Game+ playthrough ><
A lot. I'll try to remember everything:
All your levels
All ascension points you've spent (and any AP you've earned but not spent)
Most of your items (example you don't get to keep the Ultima Blade but if you have the Engine Blade III you keep that and also get a new Engine Blade I)
All car customizations (except the flying one), the new game started with the decals I had last put on and all components.
All Recipes
All Fish.
All Lures, rods, reels, and fishing line you had in the save you use for the basis of the NG+
If you had images from Prompto saved those will be there when you start the new game.
All filters you unlocked.
All Fishing, Survival, Cooking, and Photography levels
The King/Kingslaive outfits you unlocked from finishing the first time.
All magic flasks.
All music you unlocked for in the car.
I'm assuming you don't have to buy the mini disk player again but not 100% on that one.
All gil you had.
All of the king's weapons you've unlocked.
I think that's everything.

How many chapters are there in the storyline? I see that people have finished the game at roughly level 46. I just started chapter 3 and I am already level 35 and seem to out level most of what I am fighting.
Ya there is 15 chapters and Chapter 13 recommends level 40 so I assume 15 is 45.

Think once you start chapter 13 pretty much go straight through to the end. Don't get much choice to go back unless you use umbra.
"Chapter 15" is what it puts you in after beating the main story. There is no recommended level for that lol... Story is 14 Chapters.
14 or 15 depending on how you look at it If you do side stuff you'll pretty much always be over leveled for all of the story. I have a friend who pretty much no side quests at all and he finished at level 35 iirc. Might have been 30, but it was somewhere around there. On the other hand I did a lot of the side quests and hunts (though no where near all of it) and I finished the game at level 59, probably would have been higher level if I had maximized my xp by staying at hotels but I didn't really care about doing that since I was never felt like I needed to levels much. I was far more interested in maxing out my AP gains to get all the things I wanted in the grid. Anywho, that should give you a sense of the leveling curve
I went back asap in chapter 13 because I really needed a break because everything was so intense. I honestly think that helped me deal with Chapter 13 and is part of why I don't think it bothered me as much as some other people.
I think part of the reason why ch 13 was so tedious and boring to me was that I trying to complete it past the time I normally go to bed. I figured since ch 10-12 were so short that ch 13 would also be short. Nope. Not even close. I knew I had to go to work the next day, but Evil Kermit told me to beat ch 13. I regretted it.
Hopefully the new patch would shorten the length a bit. I think it was said that The ring of lucii would be getting a power increase, but idk if that was just a rumor.
Yea, most of the issue with Ch 13 imo is because it is unexpectedly long and right before it you go from being able to save at pretty much any point to only being able to save at certain points which only it makes feel even more taxing.
Well after a break since i just clearing stuff after beating the main story i got around to the 'puzzle dungeon' which turns out is a really shitty platforming dungeon in a game where you can let go of the controller and noctis will turn on the spot, or stumble or roll apropos of nothing which makes very very simple puzzles become an exercise in frustration. Hands down the worst experience i have had yet in a PS4 game and now i have played No Mans Sky
