      @@yannispirou101 Funny, I wish XVI was more like Automata, a game that perfectly balances character action and RPG. Instead, it’s purely character action, and the RPG elements barely matter, and even as far as character action games go I think it pales in comparison to most Devil May Crys, Bayonettas, Nier Automata, etc. especially due to the game being too easy. 2023 was too stacked and I’m not shocked it didn’t get a GOTY. Baldur’s Gate 3 was my GOTY as it respects its RPG roots,, hell even Honkai Star Rail was a breath of fresh air after XVI felt almost ashamed to be part of a RPG series. I’d only give XVI a nomination for music, and even then BG 3, Alan Wake 2, and Hi Fi Rush above it. Voice acting, Cid should have been the nomination, Clive was good but not best of the year. Not narrative, especially since Clive’s story is mostly just Velvet’s from Tales of Berseria but not as good and the world building was so roughly handled.

    • @RecapKatsu
      @RecapKatsu Před 9 měsíci

      because it doesn't deserve to be GOTY it's that simple. It doesnt even have multiple party members with their own stories to tell. On that part alone it fails to be a JRPG. It should have been called FF EIKONS - a boss fight simulator.

    Titan and Bahamut were both incredible fights, absolutely peak material for different reasons and either could probably be their own climax fights for the whole game. Odin and Ultima feel kinda toke by that point, like the game is just obligated to hit those fights, though the lead up to Ultima is also cool as shit.

    For me the problem with FF16 was that you can finish doing a epic kaiju battle, then for the next hour you’re doing some fetch quest for Mid as a main story mission. The game has the highest of highs but then follows with the lowest of lows. If the fighting wasn’t what it was I would’ve dropped it.

    Sure it’s not quite the perfect game but, as it was my most anticipated game of the year, it delivered on many accounts for me. It was truly a gaming experience. Clive is easily one of my favorite FF protagonists, right next to Cloud.
    That being said, I do not agree with their takes on some characters. In regards to Dion, I thought the handling of his queerness was done just fine. Also, he didn’t straight up make out with his boyfriend. It was just a kiss. Also, the scene between Clive and Jill on the beach is literally pure romance as they confess their love for one another. The only reason why they were naked was due to their clothes being soaked and needed to dry off. 🤦🏾‍♀️ Geez the guys have been saying some real shits takes lately that it’s not even funny.

    The irony of Gigguk giving shit to Joey for not finishing Attack on Titan, but never finishing it, and Garnt hasn’t finished a Final Fantasy game is just hilarious. Seriously, some of the best moments of Final Fantasy games come from the ending of the series like FFIV going to the final dungeon which is a spoiler or the craziness of the original Final Fantasy’s final act. My guess for FFXVI is that the combat system is more DMC, which is more based on replayable games so are much shorter, and it doesn’t work with something very long like Final Fantasy.

    FF16 has cool fights but that's it. It's pretty bland mixture of Devil May Cry and Dark Souls. It's a fantasy action game, not even a jrpg. Graphically it's sometimes amazingly bad even when I compare it with FF15. The world is so boring, FF games always, at least from FF6, had a unique worlds blending fantasy, fairy tale with medieval themes and futuristic designs. FF16 doesn't have that. You could always differentiate FF game from all the others, but this time it's only another medieval-themed action kinda-rpg. The story is meh, characters are meh, music is all right, but all of this is nowhere near the magic of FF I remeber when playing FFX. FF15 and FF13 even were much better. I hope they will come up with something more interesitng in FF17, if not that series will dissapear among other better and similar button smashers.

    FF16 was not a great representation of FF as a whole. Play FF7R for a great modern experience.

      Nope! It grabbed me immediately with the intense as hell intro.
      But maybe it just wasn’t your thing, or maybe the timing was bad. It doesn’t have to be any deeper than that I think.

    Would it be safe to say that Garnt has completely exhausted himself with Japanese storytelling that anything going forward just starts off boring as his standard?

    Look, I'm sorry but FFXVI is not an RPG. It's about as much of an RPG as Devil May Cry or Revengeance.
