I 100% this game because I am a filthy completionist but that is hours of my life I can never get back. I only gave this game 2 stars for the addictive gameplay and flavour text And the costumes with that 0.5 for Edea and Ringabel like RIP these two the best characters in the game trapped in a overly pretentious meta plot and boring ass party members

The main quartet are arguably the strongest aspect of this game which is why I gave it a 2. Unfortunately it suffers because it's a poorly done Jesus analogue that is made even worse with the revelations in Episode Ardyn. This is a Bahamut callout post by the way
Also despite having the relationship between Noctis and Luna being a central point in the story, we are only told that they are in love for some reason, with barely anything to help us get invested in it. Unlike in FF8, which I also didn't like, at least Squall/Rinoa, despite being bland as unseasoned soup, is visible, which is unfortunately WAYYYYYYYYY more than I can say for the ghost of a suggestion that is NoctLuna

I WANTED this to be good so badly. I was able to deny how much I wasn't enjoying this game until they introduced the existence of the herbology professor (I think?), who just like the past 5-6 objects/persons in the fetch quest that was the main plot was introduced out of nowhere and was of no consequence as soon as the next fetch quest object/person was revealed.
There's nothing wrong with stories like this, at least in theory - but at least have the decency to make it not quite as obvious. Also, any sort of flavor text would have been nice...
