Its fun game but its not a final fantasy game to me. the team at final fantasy should stop with the sidequest as they are horrible and boring. Its worse then a typical mmo sidequest. Its like they havent learnt from ff15 era lol.

I liked the sidequests. And the "it isn't FF" is very tired thing going on since forever.

I agree its a good game and I feel it really could have been a 10/10 but they let themselves get too caught up in the Witcher 3 craze. I don't mind the sidequests, because they are a nice break from the main story and they are optional, some of them are actually very enjoyable.

The biggest issue for me is the lack of foresight in the combat system. There are six Eikons with 4 abilities each, you can only equip two. The abilites are fun to use, but they are disposable in that there is no deeper strategy with so many abilities.

Its such a shame because they could have given the combat a battle party of three heros, each with two Eikons. You could then have all the Eikons available in each fight switching between characters to use each Eikon and on top of that switching between characters to attack enemies with elemental weaknesses.

Its so dissapointing to have such a good battle system at our disposable, but not even use half the moveset.

I think 3 eikons giving you 6 abilities (and if you max a skill you can put into a different eikon) is already quite cheesing to break the oponent all the time.

But yes I wouldn't have any issues against you being able to have access to all eikons and skills during the battle.
