After 14 main line entries its getting pretty stale.
I might just be growing out of anime tropes, but this style doesn't appeal to me the way it used to. It all seems so fake. Like the main character in 16 is getting ready for his live stage boy band concert instead of being a medieval soldier.
I get its fantasy, but I thought Kingsglaive was making progress with having characters that looked like humans instead of strange anime doll people. I mean what kid actually looks like Joshua in 16? Why do Joshua and his girl friend have basically the same face, with the main characters not being so different as well?
I'm finding it harder and harder to relate to these perfect, no flaw characters. I would have thought after XV's main party we might have gotten something somewhat different but there isn't even a playable woman or PoC character in sight. Ive seen these dudes 1000 times already.
Edit: I'm not asking for "Ugly", just characters who look like actual humans with a diverse cast.
