I’m a little more than half way through the game, and I love taking my time with it.

I wanna ask though before I forget.

Do y'all think they going back to the future for the environment for the next game, and do y’all think they’ll keep it rated M?

Could go either way. Depends on who’s making it. I don’t think the M rating matters for sales and I think the story is better off for it

Breh I’m hyped either way. I always was a fan of FF, but hate turn-based.

Now I got something to look forward to from them.

15 and this released so far apart from each other. I hope they can release the future games closer to each other.

Man the budget dissonance in the game mind blowing. :pachaha:

One minute you get in game cutscenes with PS3 era static animations and then you get to the Titan boss (which I’m %100 positive Platinum Games designed) and it’s a whole other generation.:mindblown:

I guess we got the remakes at least least to fill in the gaps.

I do wonder who will do XVII since CBU1 is doing the remakes and luminous is dead

update out:




July 6th, 2023
We announced the release of update 1.03, which makes a number of improvements to the game.
This update fixes some issues and adds some new functionality.
We recommend that you install this update before playing FINAL FANTASY XVI.

This update:

-Adds the following items to the System tab of the Main Menu:
Motion Blur Strength
Allows the player to adjust the strength of the motion blur effect when the character or camera is in motion. The default setting is the maximum of 5. This can be lowered to reduce the strength of the motion blur effect, or set to 0 to turn it off completely.
Player Follow (Movement)
Player Follow (Attack)
Turning these settings off prevents the camera from automatically following the player while moving and attacking respectively.
-Changes the maximum setting of the Camera Sensitivity (Horizontal) and Camera Sensitivity (Vertical) items from 10 to 20.
-Adds three new controller layouts: types D, E, and F.
-Corrects an issue that affected the stability of some menus.
-Corrects some text issues.
-Adds the hashtag #FF16 when sharing screenshots or video clips on Twitter or YouTube.

Probably just the type of compromise they have to make it keep cost from skyrocketing. It would have been nice if Ragnarok had bigger set pieces

You’re probably right. It’s just so noticeable after some amazing cut scene then you go back to the hideaway and see this stiff shyt….

Hey coli brehs. I'm not sure if you guys care but if you buy a round for the hall for a drink 4 times at the Tub & Crown in The Hideaway so you get the unlock /hidden trophy. I know it's 10,000 Gil but for those looking to cheap out on their fellow bearers, you can create a save file, spend your Gil, and load back to before you made your purchases so you won't waste your Gil
