I have to commend this one, because I atleast finished it, but I don't really know what made me come back to it from time to time. It was the most boring FF entry I have finished yet.
The story was boring me to death.
I didn't believe for a second the character were talking to eachother in the same realm.
I hated the voice acting, because everyone is doing a batman impression. Ben Starr is the worst offender of this.
Main Content felt like side-content, and the side-content didn't even feel real, how basic and mind-numbing they were.
I fell in love with the FF franchise because of the memorable, catchy music, and for this game to go on the boring trailer orchestra music route, it was heartbreaking.
This is not an rpg at all, which is like if Burger King were only selling chicken wings. Just name the game something different goddammit! No magic, no cool equipments, no mana. Nothing.
The combat is piss easy, there isnt even a phoenix down, because if you die during a boss battle, they give checkpoints every phase, and upon respawning the max amount of healings. The only reason for you to learn the combat system, is to haste the proccess of taking down the damage sponges of bosses.
They will give you flashy numbers like 5600 HP!!! 39000!!!!, but in reality, that amounts to like 1mm on the bosses healthbar.
Very disencouraging to play the "Jingling of Keys, The Game".
There were no bugs. That is commendable.

There were moments, where I felt like I was somewhat in awe of what was happening, but there's no fucking way that this justifies the amount of money I paid for an empty world, with empty people in it, in a empty story.
