Another wonderful addition to the FF series.
The gameplay closely reminds me of Devil May Cry, but that was also a game I enjoyed so a win win.
Amazing story telling for the most part, but the narrative can be a bit slow, though really good to have a Lore menu where I can always check for terms I do not understand at the time.
I miss a bit of the party system, your companions are a bit too underdeveloped like most side characters and even when they are with you, they feel quite dead, especially compared to previous games like XV and VIIR, your dog feels like the most well developed party member lol.
No words on the Soundtrack, it's simply perfect.
A little too many re-used assets from FFXIV, which I must admit bothered me slightly as the models feel out of place imo, when put in comparison to the new models that look so good.. In fact damn, the design of the Eikons are one of the best to date with the exception of a few. Side Quests still suffer as they did in most other FF games, they are quite boring, save for a few.
Overall the game is well worth it, despite not having a post game activity like most RPGs, so once the story is over there is not much to do especially if you've done the other activities along the way. Currently the NG+ "Final Fantasy Mode" or "Hard mode" are best bet for "post game". More of an action linear game with RPG syndrome.
