The "Ifreet" pronunciation is actually how it is pronounced throughout the series, not just unique to XVI. But im right there with you, he has been "Ifrit" to me for most of my life 😂
Yeah... it's gonna stay "Ifrit" through at least FFXXV for me
Great balanced review. I’m personally enjoying the game. It’s like an interactive movie . Perfect to wind down at the end of the day
Thanks! I really liked the direction they went. But I could see how it would turn a lot of people off to it. Really looking forward to Rising Tide for answers on Leviathan
I love this FF. Is it my favorite (no). But, I do believe it is a good addition to the series. With that being said, here are my issues with the game.
First they have pacing issues. They brought MMO side quest style to a single player game (not a good decision). Second, the had main quest that should have been side quest and they had side quest that should have been main quest. After you swap those out (you know which ones I am talking about) you can get rid of the rest of the side quest. They had a crap ton that was pointless and the reward was a crafting material that you already had like 500 of (which made it even more pointless). Last is you need to pick a lane. Ether be a RPG or be an action adventure. They could have fixed this by just making elements and status ailments during combat a thing. This would have brought a lot more strategy to combat and also would make weapons more important except just a power up in attack and or defense for armor. These things would have made it more of a RPG and would have been more faithful to FF. The other options would be to get rid of half the weapons and armor (have like only 6 or 7). Those six or seven weapons would have a different combat style (like a bow, axe, two handed sword, one handed sword and shield ect..). This would have leaned more into an action combat / action adventure.
Everything else in the game I loved. Examples are that it has by far one of the best stories in all of the FF (Only two stories are better is 6 & 7). Also it has the second the best combat (I think FF7R has the best combat by far). Last, It does have the best score of all the FF. Great Game!!!
Definitely some valid points. I honestly don't look at it as even trying to be an RPG at this point. It's a story driven action adventure, but Definitely not an RPG. And I agree with the insane amount of pointless "loot"
But it is an entry I really did like the story overall. Went back to play FF6 right after, and it definitely doesn't hold a candle to that for me, it's one of the more memorable entries after 6 and 7 for me.
Have you played Echoes of the Fallen yet?
@@JiggleBellyGaming yes. Omega was epic. So excited for the Leviathan DLC!!!!
I'm excited about seeing (and hopefully fighting) leviathan, but I wasn't too keen on $10 for the first DLC, personally. Omega was about the only standout for me for such a short add on.
@@JiggleBellyGaming I thought $10 for 3-4hrs of game play was cheap enough. Hell I beet spider man 2 in 12hrs and that was $70. If you do the math they could have charged $20-$25 for the amount of content.
Yeah, I also look at games like the Fallouts and the Witcher DLCs. I know it's subjective, just felt like $10 for a DLC that took about 3 hours isn't worth the bother.
I walk the whole time lol 😆
Some of those areas are just too dang big for my liking
The end of the game pissed me tf off
