I just finished the game along with both DLC (put 100ish hours into it), while the graphics are good, the story is good, the music is good. Imo, FF16 has the worst battle system out of all FF games, and I have played and beaten all the mainline FF games. I am currently playing rebirth, and it is night and day different from 16. Maybe its just my taste in FF games, but rebirth is the best FF post PS1.

I agree wholeheartedily. I love the dialouge, acting, score, graphics in FF16, but the gameplay is subpar.

In contrast FF7 Rebirth's battle system where everyone is playable with action elements and building up ATB bars to use magic and abilities makes the gameplay feel fun. I really do feel like the game suffered from being locked into Clive for the whole game.

I don't really want new turn based Final Fantasy's as I want the FF7Remake/Rebirth battle system as the new standard for the series due to it's balance. I haven't played the Expedition 33 yet, and maybe it will change my mind.
