i'm a sucker for rhtymn games.
this one is no exception.

This game is HYPE! I don't even know how to PLAY the game, but it's so GOOD. The soundtrack is superb, the roster is charismatic (even the BEARS) and the story mode is one of the best (if not THE best) of all fighting games.
With the rollback update, the game is even better and is inviting for new players (myself included).

This game is really fun. The flowmotion mechanic was fresh, new and fun. Happily the command deck system came back, but without the merge system it's actually... meh.
The worlds are great, mainly the Fantasia one.
The bosses aren't the best (they are, actually, really FAR from that, mainly Ansem and Anti-Coat Nightmare), but, it was fun after all.

i honestly felt like i was in some kind of vacation, without having to worry about ANYTHING.
great soundtrack and cute game overall

i just want a good ending goddamit

this game is horrible, but i love it so much.

I still have nightmares with this game.
It's fun, and the ost is great!

I played this game from dawn to dawn, and it is one of the best gaming memories that I have.

2016

one of the best games out there

Replaying this game after knowing what happens is truly a different experience. Things make more sense and you grow even closer with the characters after doing subquests with them. The soundtrack hits harder and the scenes are even more painful, at least for me.
Ah, and Emil fights are SO DAMN COOL! His whole subplot is just so good.

I downloaded this game without expecting anything, but when i actually PLAYED IT, definitely was an masterpiece experience, which mix rhytmn game elements w/ quick time events and such beautiful levels (and GOOD MUSICS).
>>PLAY<< this game.

made me cry.
(just saw the movie tho)

Really great game with great soundtrack, great characters and a really, REALLY emotional story.
Combat system is top notch, and allows different combinations.
Sephiroth battle was really fun and the Data Org battles was thrilling enough to make me rush through them.
Someday I'll kill fucking Lingering Will. Someday.

The game deserved a 5, to be honest. The post-game content was really disheartening (especially the grinding for Ultima Weapon, I HATED all the mini-games involved together with the Postcard's RNG). However, the game as a whole is BEAUTIFUL, along with an exploration (at least in the main story of the game) extremely relaxing.
The super fluid combat, the links, the grand magics ... everything was beautiful. The soundtrack, as always, magnificent, along with super hypable and cinematic boss fights.
It's a solid 4: it was fun and I would probably play in Critical Mode as an NG +.
