game had so much potential that went to waste :francis:
What's sad is this is my first Final Fantasy game. The combat is fun and really interesting once you master it, but there is little to no challenge in the game. The parry and dodge mechanic is entirely to forgiving and makes many of the fights too simple. Items are too abundant and make any fight even more simple when you can abilities like overwhelm for invincibility frames and know that you have a stack of 99 elixirs to fall back on.

For my first final Fantasy game, I'm just dropped into a world like I'm supposed to know all these characters and draw some immediate connection for them. That'd be a cool story telling method if you guys give some sort of explanation on who is who what their motivations are later down the line.

And the ten year jump where every interesting antagonist not named Ardyn gets killed of screen is stupid as fukk. Sooooooo much could've been done with this and it just leaves that feeling that a framework for a classic game is there, but that didn't capitalize.

The thing about magic is crafting with items. To get magic from basic shyt like fire to fira and then firaga you have to increase the potency and combine it with items. The game doesn't really do a good job of explaining magic. I thought it was trash too at first but its the opposite. :ehh:

I used blizzaga around some water and ended up freezing the whole damn team.:damn: Froze the monster in the middle of its attack and everything. High level magic can do basically 9999 on a monster thats weak to it. Since high level magic hits multiple times, you can do 30k or 40k damage. :whew:

Finally beat this at level 42 and 31 hours


This game is 7.5/10 and nothing more.

I don't know if this game has a good story but the way its told is LOL terrible.

The car is an utter annoyance.

Combat is good but the camera gets in the way a lot.

The production values of this game are high and that's what makes it a decent game in the end.
