    What's to the 2SLGBTQ+ representation like in this game? Positive?

      There's like one main gay character in the entire game, and he's likeable/badass. You only know he's gay cause he shares a peck on the lips with his man one time. Otherwise he never acts the least bit gay.

    it doesnt. The game is great and is unironically the best FF since X. Granted that doesnt say much, but it's still a great game. Great cast of characters, great OST, great world, game looks gorgeous, amazing gameplay. Yeah it's short and lineart and not really a RPG that much but if you accept the game for what it is (a DMC x FF14 collab) instead of wanting it to be what it's not (a traditional old school FF) it's amazing. Go play Octopath 2 if you want a good old school JRPG

      I'd say not really any more than most other of the most well liked FFs. It's the average FF length. FF games that are longer than 30ish hours doing the main story are more of the exception really.

        yeah but it legit took me like 35-40hours to 100%, which is short for a FF

          Nah, lies. I 100% it and it's around 60 give or take. It's impossible to 100% it on a first go at 35 hours also sitting through the story.

            depends what you call 100%ing it. For me it was just "doing everything on one run" (not the NG+). I'm currently doing the NG+ in order to platinum the game so it'll probably be longer

            Or the PS5 time counter of my profile is messed up and I don't see the proper numbers.

      Jill is very intelligent that there's no overacting in anyway about her personality. She knows what she wants and what has to be done.

      Honestly one of the best female protagonist in all FF just because she was actually the one trying to finally go for Clive and say it's time we frick. I respect her for that alone.

        16 is very based for this. Overall a surprisingly based game considering it's a huge AAA game by a major studio in 2023. Even Dion is gigabased thot destroyer.

      She's great I think she just ends up parroting the shit clive says too much about OUR OWN TERMS. It's not a phrase that sticks like "This is my story" from Titdust and Yuna in FFX. I get why though, I think a lot of people look passed the fact that half or more of the game world was raped/pillaged and turned into some Fire Punch type energy factories for the needs of regular people. So of course the whole "we gotta find a way to do shit our own way without being treated like garbage" is fine. But the delivery of the lines makes me want to cringe after the 10th time though.

      Once cid dies, so does the only reason to play the game. The game really took a complete nosedive without him and even with him it was barely worth playing.

      She is legit just there, could have just nuked her from the game and it would have barely made a dif.

    I'd say it slightly goes downhill after Bahamut because the central antagonist is just Zanza from Xenoblade 1 again, but the late game side quests keep carrying the game narratively and the last main bosses are by far the best in terms of actual combat mechanics.

    This is still by far the best FF since 12, worthy of being in one row with the "good" ones (4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 12, 14).

      I thought the same thing pretty much, it's the most entertaining thing they've released since 12. I just wish they put a little more time into the fun random cheesy shit you can do in FF games sometimes. Be it monster arena and taming beasts for FFX, card games, racing, etc. Did the commonfolk in Valisthea have 0 forms of entertainment other than drinking and fricking?

        Quite honestly, the vast majority of FF styled minigames won't fit the tone of the game.
        However, i'm not against an idea of Triple Triad. Gambling should exist in the setting.

      He's a far better Demiurge than Zanza. Better voice acting and visual design too.

        It's interesting that he's voiced by the same person who did Z in XB3 in english dub.
        So he's like a superior fusion of Z and Zanza and an ACTUAL foil to Clive, a demon he must face for his story to be complete.

          No fricking way holy kek.
          It's hilarious how many parallels 16 has to Xenoblade and especially Xenoblade 3.
          It's literally just Xenoblade 3 but good and Metsu/Malos is Clive, Clive literally being called Logos going into Origin to defeat Z but actually good.

            And the grand plan of Ultima is essentially what Deus wanted to do in Gears.
            And Jill/Clive romance arc has an actually satisfying conclusion unlike Noah and Mio who almost stop interacting in last 2 chapters.

            "eat shit" and "your taste is trash lmao" isnt criticism, it's shitposting.

            The game is far from perfect and I agree with lots of the criticisms that were made against it. It just doesnt prevent me from enjoying it because I didnt have the same expectation or because said criticism weren't that important for me compared to its qualities.

      because she realised how powerless they were to Odin and that Clive becoming "whole" was their only option

      Because they realized that Odin was kinda right. Clive had to get their powers to even stand a chance. Jill knew holding onto her power is just delaying the inevitable.
