This probably is the best final fantasy has ever been in so long. A giant world with many thigns to see, multitude of fun side quests, even the side content is hella fun. I love the minigames, even if some of them overstayed their welcome. Presentation wise, it does not get better then this. It is very PS2 style in nature, from its combat, being simple but with massive depth, and its story, and characters being overly dramatic and complicated but true to heart, and it does it so well. The game drops the ball hard however by locking most of it's side content in its third act, and by the time you get there, you probably will be too exhausted to do any more side content. Thankfully, there was no need for any grind at that point, as the game is very streamlined and balanced well. The third act is spectacular, while the narrative takes the hit, the drama is done so well, with some amazing cinematics, character moments, and great set pieces. If this pace of improvements continues, I am so excited for part 3.
