Playing Nier Automata makes me sad for the sad state of combat in Western games

Lmao what? No one talks about FFXII and people talk about FFXIII because it's a shit game. So I'm not sure how that's proving your point.

And as someone whose played both FFXV and The Witcher 3, and whose a fan of Final Fantasy and JRPG, The Witcher 3 is a better game. FFXV was disappointing as fuck because I expected a story, yet there wasn't one there. And honestly, even then I was excited for the world but that felt empty. The best thing about FFXV were the dungeons. 

And even though I've played FFXV more recently and The Witcher 3 over 9 months ago, I'm still thinking about how beautiful and world was and how engaging the quests were. The quests in FFXV......so meh. A perfect example of a game that didn't need to go open world.

FF was always open world that was the vision since it was made, i doubt youre a FF fan. There was no story in the Witcher 3, you can do alot more in FFXV than in the Witcher 3 this is a fact.

Lmao man sometimes your love for JRPGs is just real sad. The first FF game I played was FFIX and FFX, which really got my into FF is one of the best games I've ever played, probably played it over 10 times. I even bought and FFXIII and XIII-2 and actually enjoyed them. And I played a bunch of FFXIV. Crisis Core FFVII is probably my favorite  FF because of the story. And I actually bought FFXV day 1. So don't you go tell me im not a FF fan, I'm just not a mindless fan. And if anything, I'm 100% sure you haven't even played the Witcher 3 because it's obvious you just hate WRPG.

That last sentence is just embarrasing and wrong. The Witcher 3 has a clear cut story. The Witcher also has better quests than FFXV, by 100x. FFXV quests are filled with fetch quests or barely have any story at all.

And the difference between FFXV and Witcher 3 world is Witcher 3 is condensed and filled with things to do while FFXV is open and barren. That was one of the worst parts of FFXV, I was driving and running so much, filled with nothing.
