I have never played any of the other final fantasy games but I really like the game, can follow along the story, great character designs. The part for me is the combat, donโt get me wrong itโs beautiful but, I am used to playing faster paced games, (soulsborne games, mortal kombat, etc) during missions when itโs just mowing down enemies, (I think, to slow, to predictable) I only take the boss fights seriously even then they rarely hit me. If you like rpgs then this game is for you but if you care more about gameplay then thatโs where it falls short for me. Though I do recommend it to anyone who is new to these types of games (at the time of making this at the point where, Clive is in the hidden base after finding Jill)
