Fucking BANGER video game. I do not fuck with the combat at all but god the vibes are immaculate. Peak PS2-era goofy shit, ripped jeans, spiked bracelets, clenched-fist-crying-in-the-rain-type shit. If you know you know. The dlc gives me cancer but as a standalone experience it's fucking peak Final Fantasy, it speaks directly to my fucking stupid emo sensibilities. I love u Jack Garland foreber <3

Solid combat, story I could barely make sense of carried by the greatest protagonist of all time. Slightly tarnished by the bafflingly bad loot/levelling system.

A bit of a Souls like with a bit of beat em up elements. Honestly it feels really great destroying the enemies. It also has the Doom (2016) type of glory kills that are amazing to get. The story and characters are pretty edgy and goofy but I still found them enjoyable. I really wanted to see how everything turned out especially since you are playing as the main villain of FF1. I think it gives a very interesting and convoluted answer but I thought it was still a cool idea to see.

Even as someone who's not a real ass FF fan I still enjoyed the game. It even got me interested in playing the OG games. Which I got to find time to actually sit down and play them.

Still an overall great time and it's pretty cheap complete now. Although I haven't played the DLC yet but I think they seem fine.

CHAOS! Cool gameplay with cringey but funny main character.

CHAOS

Doesn't really get good until the end. The final fight of the third expansion makes me want to push it to three stars.
