I liked the game when i played it.

This was a very well done analysis. I tried to really like FFXV but just couldn't. It was just a lifeless world, and I didn't care for the dynamic between the main characters. I can see how you would enjoy the dynamic between Noctis and his friends, on a road trip...but I dunno, the world and combat fell flat. Music was just...okay. I like how he juxtaposed the game with others like BotW, Nier Automata, MHW, and Dragon Quest XI.

Definitely not the worst game in the series, that goes to FFII imo, but it's pretty down there on my list.

NOT REALLY.  im not a huge fan of the series at all, but i feel this game has some satisfying enemy fights and bounty challenges. exploring the world was fun and graphics were nice. But the story was crap, felt incomplete and rushed. The dlc was crappy and rushed aswel. Here's hoping the dragon quest 11 is a better game.

I was bored after the 1st few hours.. strip the visuals away and the game is as generic as open worlds come. Much like many other graphical focused games.

For me it was by far the worse of all I played; I don't recall what was the chapter (10 or 13) where you can roam in the big area with the crater/crystal thing in the middle but I remember clearly giving up at this point.  

My main problems with the games:

- The story was really not appealing to me (those guys on road trip... A car... meh)
- Combat system
- Equipment and gears
- Flasks or whatever is the name of the spell system where you mix elements
- Traveling time and quest... Took like forever to complete a quest even the smallest one because of all the traveling

But the game definitely looked really amazing graphically; which the main reason I went so far before stopping.

My favorite FF is by the far the 12 :)

I enjoyed it despite its flaws. I still even play it now from time to time. Games is clearly still not complete though, hopefully the next 4 dlcs will sort that.

I enjoyed the game, the combat was fun and the characters were good. The main problem was that it was blatantly rushed, the main story just seemed like the got to a certain point and thought “right we’ve got to get this finished fast now just speed through it from now on” it seemed like major events or people dying happened so fast and was done cheaply then it just moved on so fast from it, it wasn’t weird. I’ll be honest the ending baffled the fook out of me and i couldn’t really play it anymore after BUT I did enjoy that e game.

I don't need a video to tell me that. I played it myself and it's a disaster. Big empty world. Boring sidequests. Slow and clunky gameplay. Driving at night always triggers the same unskippable cutscene to ask you how dangerous it is to drive at night. Are you still sure you want to drive???
I can't believe that traveling throughout the world can be so damn annoying. I only played until the first city and just stopped. Couldn't take it anyome.

The game is just boring. The gameplay itself isn't even bad or anything and the graphics are nice and all. But it's still boring as hell.

I mean... I can't be the only one who felt like Noctis balls were made out of steel, right? Moving him, making him jump... it felt so limited.

But now that I think about it, this is something that's been around in many games lately. Developers are desperate to make everything look and feel real. And that sometimes affects character control in a negative way. In some specific games I understand, but in games with a vast world and that is supposed to have an active and flashy combat system I don't realism. I don't want to feel slow and clumsy when I turn around my character. I don't want to run like... nothing at all. I don't want to barely jump half my height. I just want to feel like the fantasy character that I am. I want to have fun.
