the pacing of this game is so goddamn awful. you will have a 40 minute combat session with 5 minute cutscenes sprinkled in, immediately followed by a 20 minutes of straight cutscenes. this is by far the absolute worst part of this game and it drove me insane. when i was finally relieved to not be watching cutscenes anymore, i was them somehow just bored with how long and repetitive combat sections are.
combat is FINE but everything takes forever to die (small guys should die in one combo but for some reason it takes like 3 combos instead) and you don't really have much of a say in your build other than summon abilities. was not a highlight for me.
story was also FINE but didn't draw me enough to carry on with this game.
if both the main gameplay (combat) and story are mid, neither will carry the game to be good. extremely disappointing.
also fuck ffxiv
