* At the end of ''Episode Duscae'', both Prompto and Gladio are obviously a bit smitten with Cindy. [[BuxomIsBetter Strictly for her personality]], [[SarcasmMode of course]]. Prompto can barely even hide it, and Gladio at least manages to be a little more suave about it. Cindy shoots them both down ''simultaneously'', and leaves it an open question whether she even ''picked up'' on their flirting. Noct and Iggy are highly amused by it all.

Meta moments aren't allowed


[[folder:''Meta'']]
* [[http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/ffxv-car-driving The "Car Driving" meme.]] That is all.
** Not only was it acknowledged by SE by their release of a high-quality version of the assets specifically so people could meme with it, it also made it into the game proper as one of the available frames when publishing photos taken in-game.
* Some Let's Players won't heed the warnings about driving at night and take the wheel themselves. Within minutes, [[HumblePie they're likely to come across a level 50 Iron Giant and have a mini freak out.]]
* At one point during the ''Uncovered'' event, Greg Miller [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GWv8eQJrotI calls out GameSpot for leaking the release date before said event started.]]
* During the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JgwpGyFsgQk September 3, 2016 PAX West gameplay stream]], the stream suddenly crashed as soon as the fight against [[EnsembleDarkhorse Aranea Highwind]] started, leading to jokes that most of the viewers were [[JustHereForGodzilla just there for her.]]
* As celebration on the eve of the game's release, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AdTHeN5wF9Y Square Enix hosted a stream featuring the Mystery Disk]]. It's... [[SillinessSwitch Much less serious than the game proper]]...
** Noct runs out of the tent discovering that Prompto has gone missing. First thing of note is that there are balloons and party decor everywhere... [[UnusuallyUninterestingSight and no one's reacting to it]].
** After Noct runs off, we cut to Gladio doing one-handed push-ups with Ignis sitting on his back. [[OrphanedPunchline There's no explanation why they're doing this.]]
--->'''Gladio''': "[[HypocriticalHumor He's such a weirdo.]]"
** Noct finds Prompto in the middle of the game's eve-of-release festival with a bunch of free junk food, which Noct reprimands him for since it's just free and he got it from a stranger. [[IWarnedYou Sure enough]], when Prompto eats it anyway, he suddenly [[MakeMyMonsterGrow transforms into a giant]], [[FountainOfYouth fat childhood self]]; and the quest becomes a game of keep away as Noct destroys various random snacks showing up and trying to keep Fat!Prompto from eating them.
*** And while Noct is trying to stop Fat!Prompto, [[FromBadToWorse Cindy suddenly shows up with an entire trailer full of snacks]].
*** Also throughout the game is Fat!Prompto's animations, being so [[UnderCrank erratic]] and [[{{Acrofatic}} fast for his size]] that even the stream player is having a hard time not focusing on the absurdity of it.
** When that part's over, Noct is dragged by Carbuncle to Luna's room... [[IncredibleShrinkingMan and is mini-sized again]]. From there, [[NoFourthWall the game stops having any semblance of a fourth wall]].
--->'''Noct''': "[[CallBack I used to have these incredible dreams when I was small too...]] Platinum Demo... Or something like that?"
** And as he's following Carby, guess who shows up? Umbra! And he wants to play!
** Noct gets the cure to Prompto's condition, and then all the building blocks start levitating away.
** And as Noct is looking for a way out, suddenly ''an entire army of'' ''Fat!Promptos'' charge in the same direction, [[IncrediblyLamePun prompting]] Noct to run like hell.
** And when Noct turns to see the room itself, he finds it's ''teeming with Fat!Promptos''. A few are even crawling up the walls!
** And then comes the climax of the quest: Noct has to fight none other than [[CreatorCameo Yosuka Matsuda, CEO of Square Enix]] himself!
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bvaTAgkWy6c FFXV's Cup Noodle XV ad.]] The sheer ridiculousness of adding cup noodles to serious scenes is enough to make one wonder about Square Enix's sanity. And the best part of this all is Noctis's head overlapping with the cup noodle with him surrounded by spoon and forks.
** Even better, the Cup Noodle hat from that same commercial is now available in the game as free DLC!
* Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AlHR0QztA9Q Ultros' fate in Kingsglaive]]
* A [=YouTuber=] named [=Psnyomi133=] actually abridged three episodes of Brotherhood, and it's a comedy gold mine. Noct is a little similar to his canon counterpart, but with an AttackAttackAttack mindset in battle. Gladio is a bit of a CasanovaWannabe, Prompto is TheFriendNobodyLikes and sounds even ''more'' whiny, thanks to being voiced by [=YamatoSFX=] AKA Kirito from ''WebVideo/SwordArtOnlineAbridged'', and Ignis is played as the OnlySaneMan with shades of HonorBeforeReason, as he turns down a free car from Cindy [[SideQuest since the gang HAS to do something for her in return.]]
-->'''Gladio:''' We'll take four burgers, four fries, and... How about your telephone number?\\
'''Waitress:''' I'm married.\\
'''Gladio:''' I can fix that.
** They also didn't have a car to begin with, and just ran around aimlessly, much to Prompto's... [[ComplainingAboutComplaining annoyance]].
--->'''Prompto:''' Oh god, why are we running?! Why can't we just walk?!\\
'''Ignis:''' Stop complaining and follow Noct!\\
'''Prompto:''' Now he's sprinting! Why is he sprinting?! Noct! Why are you sprinting?!\\
'''Noct:''' '''BECAUSE FUCK YOU!'''
** Speaking of Cindy, there's the flashback where the gang meets her, complete with footage from ''Episode Duscae''.
--->'''Cindy:''' Well, howdy do? The name's Cindy. What can I do for y'all?\\
'''Prompto:''' We need help with-- [[DistractedByTheSexy OH MY GOD, THOSE BOOBS!]]\\
'''Gladio:''' Prompto! You can't-- Oh my god, that ass! You can see her tan lines! ''She has tan lines on her booty!''\\
'''Noct:''' You guys need to stop. Treat her with respe-- [[NotSoAboveItAll Oh my god, that trucker hat.]]\\
'''Ignis:''' [[NotDistractedByTheSexy ...Meh.]]
** Noct meeting Iris again for the first time in 10 years, [[ItMakesSenseInContext after planning to sleep with her when they grow up as payback against Gladio.]]
--->'''Noct:''' So, this is totally out of left field, but... Have you been with a guy?\\
'''Iris:''' You mean intimately? No. Why do you ask?\\
'''Noct:''' ''[With a [[EvilLaugh nasty chuckle]] and shit-eating grin]'' [[BorrowedCatchphrase I can fix that.]]\\
'''Gladio:''' ''[Offscreen]'' '''''[[MySisterIsOffLimits NOOOOOOOOCT!!!!!!]]'''''
** On another note, another abridged series focusing on the main game showed up, and what better way to actually end it than getting Ray Chase himself to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mA_pKCfm6s8 return as Noct]]... albeit as a DeadpanSnarker who is constantly on the verge of a full-on mental breakdown.
* ''WebVideo/HonestTrailers'' made a video about [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmLUXoK1I8o Final Fantasy XV]] and its hilarious. Lampshading all of the game's quirks, gameplay, and bromance, try not to laugh or cringe at the narrator's lines. This line sums up the entire game in one sentence.
-->'''Narrator:''' An open world game where you go take a road trip with a Japanese boy band!
* At the request of a fan, Creator/RayChase and Creator/RobbieDaymond [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Yl3gC7CfOoo actually did a rendition of Noctis and Prompto with British accents.]]
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJ4NpOfr2wE The cast of the boys held a livestream of them playing the game]]. Naturally, HilarityEnsues, including...
** For starters, they have Noct in the Mariachi outfit from the Choco-mog Carnival throughout the stream.
** The guys have fun with the camera feature, taking random pictures and saving pictures of the team in awkward poses.
** Max Mittleman reads a Crows Nest ad in the voice of Kenny Crow.
** The guys take disproportionate joy in seeing Ignis drinking from a [[http://www.clipartkid.com/images/788/red-solo-cup-clip-art-li7EgD-clipart.jpg red Solo cup]].
** The guys cheering when Ignis says his Signature CatchPhrase
*** Max Mittelman's utter disappointment when he ''doesn't'' say it.
*** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n75KXHFIrhw Adam Croasdell forced to come up with a new recipe :)]]
** The guys do an imprompto Chocobo rap-beat.
** [[Franchise/KingdomHearts "May your heart be your]] [[Main/JustForPun Galdin Quay!"]]
** Recently Ray Chase (Noctis) and Robbie Daymond (Prompto) livestreamed them playing through ''Episode Prompto''. There were references to made to Prompto's steathkills as 'yoinking him off' and many jokes about getting the D (as in, the Regalia Type-D) from Cindy.
* Due to a glitch in the end of Episode Ignis, some people have caught Ardyn ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=apabi9BWQTA&t=7m34s teabagging them]]'' at some points of the fight.
* [[https://twitter.com/Neb001/status/832938877157535744 Darin De Paul saying "There's no wrong way to love a chocobo" in the voice of Ardyn, in a really sexual way.]]
** Bonus hilarity when you watch his hand gestures and [[SmokingHotSex realize what he's miming]] when he says it.
* Creator/SquareEnix releasing a promo image about [[https://twitter.com/FFXVEN/status/848097883450626048 Episode Kenny]] as an April Fools prank. Complete with Kenny having an Armiger set full of ''fish'' and about to face off an army of chocobos. Oh, and it's ''$13,460,000''.
* With the release of the VR side-game, "''Monsters of the Deep''", Square Enix realized that it made them think of [[Franchise/{{Godzilla}} another famous Japanese monster from the sea]], [[https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DPOnzt3U8AAwjkB.jpg:large so they made a mock poster in the style of monster movies of the era featuring the guys (and Cindy)]].

** What makes it better is that this is the opening title sequence--that bit that, in every other game of the series from the beginning, usually involves some dramatic establishing shot or narration to really drive home that your epic quest begins here. Yet here we get four dudes pushing a broken down car and complaining while "Stand By Me" plays in the background.

* One sidequest involves Noctis getting scammed -- by ''a cat'', no less- into getting fish, and then cooking that fish because the cat refuses to eat it raw. For some reason, he never notices that the cat looks and acts nothing like a stray.

*** It's also funny on a meta level too - the voice actors did two takes for this scene. One where they took it seriously, then another in which they read it all in an ironic and sarcastic tone. Sure enough, ''that'' was the take that got used.
