Is Final Fantasy XV a step in the right direction??

That's one one thing that's really bothering me,  aside from being stalked by enemy ships every 200 steps the world lacks the real feeling that a war has even happened.  You have towns with buzzing happy music while apparently this big war just happened.  Even noct and co don't seem to care to much,  being more than happy to help everyone out while his dad only just died 5 minutes earlier. 

But isnt that sort of normal for the franchise? 

I remember being completely thrown out of FFX's story many times because there was a giant killing god destroying everything around and everyone was like "we need to distract ourselves with Blitzball to not think about that Giant thing killing us all. And then the Al Bhed were kidnapping the only people who could stop him, even for a certain period of time. They really didnt think that one through. 

 

 

FFX can't be extrapolated to be the whole series. Though even FFX had the world in constant agnst. Most were religious people and pretty brainwashed to think they deserved Sin. 

Say in FF6 the whole world changes after a big event. In FF7, 8 and 9 NPC's would react after big events. Places would change even.

It's nice to be able to see some of the complaints and draw the conclusion that they're probably just upset that it isn't menu-based.

It's nice to know that the defense of a mediocre combat system is to bash turn based.
