I genuinely think it's the best writing and story in a Final Fantasy game. Ever. Nothing else even comes close. I genuinely feel it's the most fun combat system. Leagues better than 15. I genuinely believe it's the best cast of characters. I genuinely get sad when a villain I hate dies because it makes the world that much less. I genuinely think the world development is among the best in the franchise, same with the art direction. I Genuinely feel it's the most epic of all the FF Games in terms of scope, scale, and memorable moments. Yeah. FFXVI is a classic in my eyes. The most 'final fantasy' game I've played since 9. And the first FF game since 2006 to make me feel quite this way. |
A lot of what you said is resonabily balanced and I agree with many of the points. Each FF game changes things, to the point where they made a lot of mistakes with the previous entries and refined the formula to create a very solid product with FF16.
The problem with FF16... is unfortunately FF7 Remake...
FF16 features so many different moves and abilities, but Clive can't equip most of them. The biggest issue I have with the game is how you have too many Eikons and abilites, it would have been perfect to have a battle party of 3 characters and to be able to switch between Eikon's to exploit enemy weaknesses.
Additionally because the game is so focused on Clive, you miss the banter and the growth of the character relationships that developed in previous FF's. Thats what FF7 Remake nailed because the character relationships extend into the battle party.
