Let us know where your feelings are at for this game. I’m going to place my trust in modern Final Fantasy one more time. Thanks to the incredible speed of the PS5’s SSD. Its vast and beautiful world can be explored with ease, seamlessly transitioning between battle, exploration, and cutscenes without any pesky loading times. Final Fantasy XVI sets a new standard in technical achievement that cannot be ignored. I have been holding out hope that this game can at least deliver a quality story, since it’s been years since we had an excellent single-player Final Fantasy story. Technical prowess fuelled by PS5’s hardware. Personally, I was pretty underwhelmed with Final Fantasy XV, and as an old-school cranky turn-based RPG purist, I have derived no excitement whatsoever from video clips of the combo-heavy combat system of Final Fantasy XVI. It’s comforting to hear Producer Naoki Yoshida emphasize so hard that FF16 will be all about its story. Like, even if they liked the game, they’re left wanting because one of those main pillars of the Final Fantasy series, stories, was not given to them. And a lot of people were disappointed in that. Michael Harradence / JFinal Fantasy XVI publisher Square Enix has responded to suggestions that the game hasn’t sold as strongly as the company might have hoped, telling IGN that.

And then they try to make it complete, and then they promise some more story, but then they don’t give us the story…Īnd so you had a lot of people that went into the series wanting us to give them a great story, and they didn’t get that. … FF15 – they had their story, but it wasn’t complete.
