Rebirth Combat is good. Crisis Core doesn't count it's a game from 2007. Yes, 15. 16 combat is absolute trash esp 16. Mash mash mash mindless trash. HOWEVER, Rebirth's is great. Stranger in Paradise Combat is GREAT! It's Ni-Oh as a Final Fantasy Spinoff and SOP is a great game so is Rebirth.  Final Fantasy has just an issue with awful writing. Sexism (FF16s hatred of women is concerning) and just chasing the same AAA visual goals as ever and just looks dull now. It may not have the same sales but Xenoblade is an infinitely better series right now. Persona has taken off. RPGs are hot and FF aside from Rebirth is trying to drift away being an RPG in the worst possible time. FF16 isn't even an RPG anymore it's a bad action game where elemental attacks in a so called RPG DO NOT EXIST! WHAT THE FUCK! Then what is the point of having them? Kill a fire enemy with fire. A water enemy with water and so on. 2024 had a ton of amazing RPGs. Metaphore. Granblue Relink. Ys X. Persona 3 Reload. SHin Megami Tensei V-Vengence. Dragon Quest III HD 2D. Paper Mario Thousand Year Door. Like a Dragon Infinite Wealth. FF7 Rebirth. Dragon's Dogma 2. Eiyuden Chronicles Hundred Heroes. Fantasion Neo. Cosmic Fantasy Collection. Just to name a few. These games range from action combat to turn based and all are good. Ys has been doing great action combat since 1986 and always evolving. Granblue Relink great action combat designed by Platinum Games. Rebirth is a more refined system of Remakes and it's great. The others are turn-based. So switching to action is not what is wrong with 15 or 16. It's that the combat in 15-16 is FUCKING AWFUL. |
Crisis Core counts, that's the game that started them on this path. Hatred of women? They're just going for realism and is it not safe anymore to add in themes of racism or misogyny. Idk, I think the story goes hard and I'm all for it, God know it's all that FF16 has cause you could easily just watch the game on YouTube and it'd be a very similar experience. |
Bro Square they had action RPGs on SNES. PS1. PS2 and so forth. Mana games which are action RPGs started as Final Fantasy Adventure on game boy. Crisis Core is a PSP spinoff in the middle of the Final Fantasy 7 spinoff craze. Dirge was an action game on PS2. They also had turn-based FF7 spinoffs on Japan mobile phones. Crisis Core combat is nothing like 15 or 16's either. 13 was turn-based. The game sucks but it was turn-based and came after Dirge and Crisis Core. No 16 hates women. Women are evil for no reason. There is no explanation, no solid motivation. They just are like a cartoon villian. Women with powers randomly become helpless damsels. Women with ice god powers suddenly become helpless because the man is there. This is the most common criticism of FF16 and is as subtle as being hit over the head as a bag of doorknobs. It will not let women become strong in the game as characters. Anytime they get close they pull back and that woman becomes reliant on a man to do the job. When a woman is evil it's to service a man. We think hey Jill wants revenge cool let's go but they keep pulling back and most of the game is her acting like a child waiting for clive as she acts helpless.
