8/10 the first 10 hours with the story zags and fun enough combat
6/10 by the end, story drags and game is too long and simple

Try going into any other thread than this one. I just now read a post that the reason FFXVI is shitty and failing (it isn't) is because Clive isn't hot enough like Cloud or Squall having a beach episode. And no, it wasn't a joke post.
It's clearly the minority by the numbers, but the minority is loud as fuck here and hasn't let up an ounce in the past two months.
The annoyance doesn't just materialize from thin air.
The worst game I have ever played. It fucked my mom, kicked me in the nuts and told me to give it my lunch money.
It killed my dog and spit on its corpse and lit it on fire. It made me watch.
(9/10)
Sorry, just trying to blend in here.
This is kinda funny because I have to guess they turned this entry into the gritty got arpg it is for people who usually don't play those jrpgs they don't want to be known for now.I was never into final fantasy when I was younger. The first game I tried was 13 and that bored me. I bought 15 and it felt incomplete and I never finished it. I just don't think this franchise is for me.
Probably a 6/10. I didn't finish it. I am not going to force myself to finish something that makes me yawn consistently when playing
-the story started off strong but somehow it got a little boring the further I got in.
-the combat wasn't interesting or deep enough for the length of the game
-I find a new town going through the story and I have to do 3 boring quests to continue. Like I will come back to this town later. Let me progress the story.
-side quests felt boring and more like fetch quests
-ikon fights were epic but they dragged on and on.
-pacing was off. I went from fighting a literal god to *checks notes* talking to 3 random people and then finding sand to build a boat engine.
-I didn't feel like I got rewarded enough for the hunts in the game. Like if I fight a difficult enemy, give me something to motivate me to do more.
-this may have been just me but I felt finding a particular area to go on a hunt difficult on the map

5 - literally half a good game and half a terrible one
Characters are largely good, but some such as Jill are terribly underwritten. I found the story generally engaging. The eikon fights are great on a spectacle level but highlight the issues with the combat in that it feels overly simplistic, there's little depth to be found.
Pacing is terrible - first and final thirds of the game are good-great, middle section is largely terrible. The lack of RPG elements and the boring, barren world are really what kill the game for me.
Really don't want CBU3 to do 17 and do not want a further shift into ARPG.
While I do understand this sentiment I think making a Final Fantasy similar in scope to those classic titles with current AAA standards is probably a lot to ask for. The fact that they have to separate FF7 remake into 3 games kind of shows that.I feel my wish that the FF games would go "back to form" and reach the heights of 4,6,7,8,9 is dead. I just want a FF game with an overworld, you get an airship, more summons you can freely use, more actual world sidequest not some stupid fetch nonsense.
Yeah I get that, but I still want it.While I do understand this sentiment I think making a Final Fantasy similar in scope to those classic titles with current AAA standards is probably a lot to ask for. The fact that they have to separate FF7 remake into 3 games kind of shows that.
Untill everyone has the same opinion
