FF16 has been so weird. It came out and was praised by so many people. Now it feels like I just see people hating on it. I loved it and also got the plat. Which I'm glad I did because I started using that OP weapon you get at the end of the game and it was so satisfying to use once you understood how it worked. I never bothered using the weapon on my first playthrough because I was so used my combo by then that I didn't want to change. |
I'm very new to the franchise but from what I've seen, drastic changes to combat, lack of party control, lack of minigames, dark as hell story (even including numerous F bombs) just the ending of the prologue already had me depressed lol, light on the RPG elements, and crafting was basically pointless since the game always gives you something more powerful than what you crafted by just playing the story, seems to be the biggest sticking points.
But for me, all those things were what I loved about the game 
I did mostly enjoy FF7 Remake and seeing the Summons (Eikons) treated in a different way in FF16 I thought was awesome. Especially the big focus on spectacle. Makes me excited for The Rising Tide DLC to see what happened to Leviathan.
Wait, understood how the Ultima sword worked? Can you elaborate on that? I just used it as a regular sword lol
