Another slap in the face for true FF fans, maybe my standards are too out of sync for today's "standards".
Playing the remake makes me want to boot up the original and play it for the I lost count time again, given the lack of content this game has on offer. They went as far as to say that they want to make the episodes feel like full games on their own but then release a game so devoid of content its insulting.
Compared back to the OG version its appalling where this franchise is heading, all in favor of pHotO ReaLIStiC LivE AcTIon that keeps dumbing down games and shaving off content.

Square will keep on milking this franchise from die hard fans like myself that are willing to put up with exclusivity deals and still buy at such high price 2 years after it launched when available on the platform of their preference. Its high time we look somewhere else for a true FF experience like we got in the 90s as Square cannot deliver anymore. Its just silly from my part to keep hoping that next time they will make a game that I look forward to play.




Well, enough ranting, some small things that can be considered spoilers ahead (mostly in the form of missing/dumbed down content)

- Looking forward to a FF that has no Comet, Meteor, Ultima or Holy magic?
- You can play start to finish ignoring barrier, haste, sleep, silence, etc and wonder why they are in the game at all?
- A handful of summons ?
- No ultima like weapons
- Side quests that involve walking around looking for cats or missing kids ?
- Walking super narrow corridors to the next objective and then back? (trust me its so bad you can be on your phone pressing forward on the remote and make progress)

Well look no further here it is, the live action FF you always dreamed of.

Not all is bad though, graphics are very good (although they ported some textures from the OG version, maybe nostalgia? dunno), the weapon upgrade system is a nice addition although it falls flat on combat being so shallow and you get by with button mashing, they kept the core of the story untouched which is very good but it would have been better if those wraiths things would be dropped completely but anyway...

The worst part of this game in my experience was because I knew the plot and where this game would end so playing it felt so empty, even doing all the boring side quests you just progress fast enough to know that there is nothing else to it. And when you finish the game, the "end game content" is doing all the same while fighting monsters with bigger health bars and dealing more damage? Wow that's a new low...
You can spot these reds flags on how fast you level up in the first few chapters.

For me, I will play through the next 2 installments expecting nothing else to improve really but then it will also be the last time I cared for a FF game and Square altogether and maybe finally move on to some other company/franchise that deserves my money and time.

TLDR
Pick it up on sale, lower your expectation 3 or 4 times and then halve that

Thought this world was too small for 2 Bethesdas but well here we are...
1 year later, picked up on sale and still a mess with bugs everywhere. Seems like there's a new one every time I play, nothing game breaking but

tech guns randomly stop charging
rarely but sometimes guns not firing
summon car, won't drive forward
get to quest marker, nothing happening
load from checkpoint, screen gets stuck in 16:9 on my ultra wide
pick up body animation glitches and cannot do anything else, need reload
on crafting ui some melee weapons change values randomly on click
loot that cannot be picked up
huge frame drops (80+ -> 22) in some areas

and list goes on. Content wise is also very shallow is more of a shooter than an rpg, can understand why people were disappointed. Picked this up because of the recent positive reviews but it feels so unfinished and unpolished breaking immersion every chance it gets. Just goes to show that AAA game development is deeply flawed.

Maybe by the time patch 5.5 comes in we get a real version 1 of the game... Not even expecting what was promised, but something polished at least
Its a cybermeh for me
