    Final Fantasy XV is one of the most memorable and incredible action jrpg ever made.
    The world, the music, and the the story are so powerful that I can only crying when I'm thinking about the emotional ending of this game.

    FFXV is a MASTERPIECE of the openworld games genre.
    An original experience with fun ideas that makes of this surprising big game a true gem.

    Moving from the epic Kingslaive movie, to the Brothrthood anime, to the main game and its DLCs, Final Fantasy XV is a truly unique work and at the same time beautiful in the way it was made.

    The game offers:

    - a wonderful open world, full of monsters, beautiful dungeons, secrets, weapons, and Lore, all to be discovered.

    - cute and fun minigames, such as fishing and pinball and Chocobo racing

    - mounts, such as the iconic Chocobo, and the Regalia with all the music from previous FF games

    - a fully action JRPG combat system.
    Dynamic, fast, functional and fun.

    - a simple story, but a very beautiful one.
    With one of the best endings I've ever seen.

    - one of the best Villains of the FF series, Ardyn

    - an Epic Lore

    - of the exceptional Summon

    - a wonderful OST

    - and so on

    For all these reasons I strongly advise you to give this incredible and immense game a chance, because it is not just a game but a wonderful and original life experience.

    Final Fantasy XV wins because it knows how to be original in what it does.
    For this reason I recommend it.

    Gameplay it's pretty good and combat feels solid, you have a huge over-world to explore with your party with a bunch of activities and epic boss fights to take on.

    The OST is outstanding a huge score that makes the game feel more epic than it actually is.

    In general terms this is a worthy FF not close to the likes of FFVI, VII or even X, but not that far either, most of the people who give pretty bad reviews are nostalf*gs that decided to stay in the 90's to me this game is a solid 8.5 on PC and an 8 on consoles.

    The best version of FFXV, 60FPS max settings looks amazing. The addition of all the DLC and QoL updates in this make everything a much better experience than it was at launch. If you have a beefy PC then FFXV will shine even more so on your rig.

    Here's the thing.... I've already played this on PS4. TWICE. One time I ran it through quickly, the next I really took my time.

    What the PC version does a great job at is the same thing it does well with any other good port: it runs it at wonderful graphics without dropping FPS..... for the most part (there are slight moments, here and there, but so.. so few).

    What I was disappointed about is how much work went into making sure the environments felt so smoothed out and detailed, that the characters so obviously lack the same detail (except for the hair and clothes). When the camera closes up on their faces... sure, there are pores - as with any other HD/4K game - but beyond that, the eyes look as dead as they do in the PS4 version. Except of course, that because everything else looks so great, the deadness of the eyes is now so much more obvious. This is one of the few things that bothered me, because so many conversations make use of "screen time" and you just want to see characters who feel alive... but nope... they look dead.

    Other things regarding the same issue has to do with the reworking they did on their skin... it causes blemishes or lines to look really odd because the textures themselves were not all completely reworked. It's so odd, what SE decided to do with this.

    That being said - WONDERFUL game, and an even greater joy to play with these incredible draw distances and detail... the sunlight now actually looks tropical, or desert-like, etc; it's crazy!

The game is a technical marvel imo, the light effects, the animations, the weather, the impressive summons... Everything looks amazing and seems really nice ported to me, although I didn’t play the original in console. I’m sure it’s not flawless, but I don’t think you will complain of this aspect.

    Setting: the world is as big and beautiful as it is wasted and lifeless. This is not a map worth exploring and most of what you see is simply a decorative element oriented to make your car travels more pleasant. Yes, there are some dungeons here and there, and yes, there are some boss-like monsters to kill, but even with those, the whole thing was just not worth the time for me. My advice: just focus on the main story and if you happen to stumble with one of those funny elements in your way, by all means enjoy. The side quests are no better and seem to be taken from a mmorpg (go here and kill these bugs or collect these objects), lacking any narrative to them, and so I had to pretend they didn’t exist and totaly ignored them from chapter 3 onwards, really. To compensate (a little bit) for this lackluster boring world, the enligsh dubbing was really good and the FF-style music didn’t disappoint.

    Gameplay: likely the best about the game is its combat system which never gets boring and slowly grows more technical and flashy, just at the right peace, if only I’ve always felt everything was a little too easy, despite playing in the maximum difficulty. Sadly, the combat is the only outstanding element of the whole (game)play. Once you finish a battle, things get boring pretty fast and they can be summarized in auto-driving the car, often going over and over to places you have already been, with nothing to do in between this drives, in a world that is so full of barriers (both invisible and physical) that makes you wonder if you can really call it “open world” to begin with.

    Story: now, if the world is not well thought out, the story is even less, which you can imagine is quite a disappointment, knowing that the Final Fantasy franchise is known for its amazing narratives. How to explain. The adventure looks good in the surface and promising at the start (yes, so did the map) and there are some flashy moments here and there that caught my attention, but once you step back a little and ponder, you realize the whole thing is just too shallow (again, like the world), the storyline never gets to take off and honestly, it barely holds together, constantly resorting to far-fetched plot devices to move itself forward, often initiating or ending events without explanation (or with really unconvincing ones) instead of coherently chaining them with elegance just as a Final Fantasy should. Regarding the characters, including the protagonist and his friends, it is sufficient to say that they are surrounded by such an air of frivolousness that it made me difficult, almost impossible, to connect with them emotionally, despite the tons and tons of camera time they get. Things get more climatic in the very last chapter, but one chapter alone can not make up for 40 hours of inconsistencies.

    So, how good it is? Well, as a game: an ok experience. As a Final Fantasy? Certainly lackluster. 7.5/10

    As much as I'd love to like this game, I feel it's just not acceptable as a JRPG.

If you master the character at lvl 1 you can expect pretty much more of the same as you progress (there is some progression but not enough variety).

    Other things I really don't like: only 4 characters (all emo looking douchebags IMO) and absolutely no hard mode. I'm not sure why any RPG or action game would ship out without some sort of difficulty mode besides normal and easy when the systems in place are so simplistic. Pretty much warp around to win. Why should I have to fight monsters 30+ levels higher than me in order to have any sort of challenge? Why isn't there more varied attacks like allowing my button mashing to be more dynamic and interactive? Why is it that I just hold the attack button? Where's the motivation to get stronger if everything is easy?

    *Please note that I don't buy games for their story, combat is more important to me as that's where I'll be spending 90% of my time. As far as I'm concerned, the combat here is less deep than Bouncer (Square's beat'm up from 2000). Sure, FFXV looks pretty but I don't give a **** about graphics if the complexity of an RPG isn't there. The sad thing is that I think it's not even complex enough as an action game, at least in good action games you usually learn more moves as you progress and the fights become more strategic and complex as you go.

Now to my complaint with the game. I dread to think what FF15 was like before the numerous "improvements" and "fixes", because even now:
    The plot is a boring mess that was possibly acceptable for a game that was released 30 years, but by today's standards the writing and pacing are slopping at best.
    The combat is messy and uneven. Half of the time I had difficulties even understanding what was happening as four black clothed figures were trying to hack a group of uniformly colored enemies to pieces. Other times the combat was ending so quickly that I didn't even understand why it needed to be there at all.
    The open world is one of the most boring ones I have ever seen. Empty and dull. But I must say that I might be biased on this one.
    Overall: 6/10 If you like open world games you might score it a bit higher, but it doesn't deserve a 10 under any conditions.

    Yes, because Final Fantasy XV captured me thanks to its wonderful openworld, beautiful to see, as well as beautiful to explore thanks to the secrets and dungeons scattered throughout the game world.

    The story is rather simple and fragmentary, exactly like Zelda Breath of the Wild, but finding the patience to follow all the speech narrated in this very big multimedia project, I was struck and satisfied by the Lore made.

    The speech on gameplay and soundtrack is in itself very subjective.
    But I still found the gameplay fun and the soundtrack well made, and the overall quality remained very high for the more than 200 hours of gameplay I scored.

    So, if you are also looking for an openworld road-trip game with a beautiful and rich world to go on an adventure, then I can safely recommend you this FF15 at 100%.

    ФФ 15 это воистину восхитительное и удивительное приключение, меньшего и сказать нельзя. Игра, своим великолепным сеттингом пусть и не уникально, но удивительно миксует в себе магию и технологические достижения, за одно это уже можно ставить 910.
    Музыка сделана очень достойно, я бы даже сказал круто.
    Визуально игра страдает, но это проблема консолей, а не игры. На ПК я думаю игра будет выглядеть просто великолепно.
    Сюжет в конце слегка разочаровывающий, но очень сильный и стройный, вначале позволяющий нерасторопно исследовать мир, а потом начиная адский круговорот событий, которые захватывают игрока настолько сильно, что оторваться почти невозможно.
    Боевая система на данный момент одна из лучший. Наравне с ней только новый Ассасин Ориджинс. Дерьмак 3 рядом со своими бесполезными комбо даже рядом не стоял.

    This game gets a lot of hate but I feel it's unjustified. It's a large open world with incredible views. The story is fragmented and the difficulty isn't there. However, it does redeem itself. The main group of characters is charming and it's a visual spectacle. This one will be with me for a long time.

    I highly recommend playing it. Just get it on sale.

    An emotional journey of a King and his Royal Guards, the most mature JRPG I've ever played. I honestly didn't enjoy the open world aspect, while the world building is incredible, there's not enough quality content in it, the driving mechanics are questionable, gameplay is braindead easy, and side quests are generic, but the very charming cast of characters kept me intrigued.

The story starts fine but gets uninteresting after the first hour, it feels like the story is absent for a big part of the game but fortunately it picks up later on, and that's a shame because it's a fantastic story, just very poorly written in the first half of the game. There's a certain point halfway in the story where the game becomes linear and focuses on the narrative, and I really liked that, there's a lot of action and challenging boss fights in the second half of the game, and all that leads to the final chapter, which I can safely say that the it is one of the best sequences I've ever played, and this ending is the BEST thing I've ever experienced in my life, I was left absolutely speechless, crying my eyes out. And that soundtrack is masterfully crafted, one of my favorite soundtracks ever. I still can't process what I've played, I will never forget this masterpiece of an ending. Expand

    I liked pretty much everything about this game, and I consider it one of the best JRPG action games ever made.
    And it is sad to see people still denigrate this game despite its objective excellent qualities.

    If you liked games like The Witcher 3 and Nier Automata, well I recommend you play this Final Fantasy XV too.
    Because it is on the same level as the masterpieces I mentioned.

    Play it, have fun, and enjoy one of the best action games of recent years.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First of all: FF 15 is the only game I have spent 50 hours playing because it was a funny and a very interesting experience til the end. In the FF Order it is the best FF to me (without having played yet FF 7 remake + FF 16).

    Pros:
    - Graphics: amazing, e.g. using magic against Ifrit - Storyline: Noctis seeking some kind of revenge for his father‘s death - Battle System: Real-time with great characters - Difficulty: Game offeres a wide range (e.g. easy playing: using loot and walkthrough and more sophisticated using the straight way)
    - Worlds: Fantastic variety from friendly to dark places The only weakness of the game is showing depth in the feelings of the main characters by using more high-profile cut scenes (e.g. FF 13-1 // Jedi: Fallen Order).

Pero que importa; la historia es buena, emotiva y en ciertos momentos muy épica y espectacular; el villano principal es el carisma en persona y tiene un trasfondo muy interesante; aunque al principio pareciera lo opuesto son los 3 amigos quienes hacen la mayor parte de la aventura y si tienen un problema es que te interesa saber más y más sobre ellos que el juego aporta pero a medias; las misiones secundarias repiten mucho pero suelen llevarte a cosas interesantes del mundo; la jugabilidad es muy entretenida, frennetica y con una profundidad decente; el mapa es hermoso y enorme, tecnicamente rinde bastante bien para lo que se ve el juego, en algunas ocasiones casi fotorrealista.

    I initially played this game with much fun, but now re-playing it gives me this sense of deficiency in quality. But since its got all the dlcs (except ardyn), the volume makes up for the flaws.

    Although he already went out on console, I was able to redo the game on my computer. I am satisfied to play it, because I can play it in optimal condition. However, SQUARE ENIX should have gone out at the same time as the console, because I had to redo him. The game remains excellent, but I lower the score of a point for the lack of reactivity on behalf of SQUARE ENIX on this matter.

    Sound: The music is again masterful, they created a new soundtrack that will be remembered by fans and SPECIALLY by first timers, i loved the originals and the "not original" was so f***ing effective!!! All the elements feel and sound the way they should, with different sounds for different types of enemies, making them more real.
    Voice-acting: SUPERB!!! Aside some few voices that felt really rushed by some no name extras the rest was really well done!!
    Combat is fluid and fast, it will make you falter in the beginning but after a while you will get used to it's fast paced brawl and face all the challenges the game gives you. Bosses get progressively difficult and the challenge the game gives you seems fair. Some choices of style so the combat does not feels forced.
    The story has it's problems but few and far between, the whole package is MASTERFUL and MEMORABLE!! The journey that you go through is really good, and has layers upon layers of development to the characters, epic moments FEEL epic! The romance felt a little under developed but my only true complain. The game knows that the best part of it are the 4 main characters and thrives on it!! Everything around them is a piece of art. You can have a favourite, but all of them do seem to complete each other.
    One of the best Final Fantasy! This game feels Final Fantasy through and through.

    If ever you've been waiting for whatever reason to get hold of the fifteenth Final Fantasy, then the Windows Edition may be the best reason for you to take the plunge. The best not because it is perfect but since it is remarkably comprehensive and worthy of the $50 demanded. Patches did a lot of good to this game and the PC version might be the best possible way for players to take full advantage of this incredible story set in an astoundingly good-looking port.

    Yes FF XV does have several defaults. Yes the secondary quests are repetitive. Yes the scenario is fragmented as it suffers here and there from gaping narrative holes. That's why a story-driven-DLC-based aftercare has been set into motion in order to try to mitigate the problems. All the content released so far is included in this edition so you'll go for the most complete version currently available. I just hope the forthcoming narrative DLCs will keep fleshing out the story even more as FFXV's universe deserves it. Overall, Gladio's, Prompto's and Ignis' related content is not the best ever released on the market but that isn't the goal. The aim here is to fill up again the holes left by the base game's story and theretofore it worked out properly for the concerned parts.

    FFXV is a beautiful tale adorned with an astonishingly rich and nervous combat system giving way to the most dynamic and furiest dustups the series has ever known and it throws you into an intense stunningly rendered road trip-like journey filled with stupendously strong emotional moments delivered by four memorable characters.

    All in all, this is a surprisingly solid PC port that comes with all the extra DLC from the consoles for an even lower price. This feels like a truly next gen rpg with, arguably and given you have a decent gaming rig, the absolute best looking open world so far. That title was reserved for AC:O but, with all the extra effects and 4K textures this game had me staring at my screen with my mouth wide open.

    This game looks seriously photo-real at times and that is a remarkable achievement! In fact, at times it’s hard to see when a scene goes from in game rendering to full on CGI movie, and that only attests to the quality of the in game renders as the CGI looks superb.

    Good job SE for creating a solid PC port for once. I’m hooked and honestly believe this is a game everyone with a decent gaming rig should own.

Leveling up and defeating any or all of the hunts is both not fun and a waste of time. Doing any of the side content removes you from the actual amazing story. You will never be under-leveled. (Sidebar: sometimes a side-quest will come up asking if you want to take a group photo or something like this - go ahead and do this. Just ignore the quest givers.) Second, ignore the magic system, sell all of your items and only purchase new weapons and restorative items. If you do both of these things, you'll complete the game in about 20 hours and have an incredible time.

Joguei no level 22 até o capitulo 8, enfrentando monstros com o level até 3 vezes maior, e mesmo assim a dificuldade não existia.
    O jogo possui um mapa diverso e grande, mas ele não é totalmente acessível, lhe obrigando a utilizar quase sempre as rodovias principais para viajar de carro (ou ir voando). A diversidade dos monstros, plantas, biomas e etc é boa e bem construída.

That aside, this game is gorgeous. I'm running it on 4790k with 1070 and 16gig of ram and I'm getting 60fps on the highest settings. The story is great, I recommend watching Kingsglaive first as it means you start with the knowledge of the story they expect you to have. Otherwise it can be slightly confusing.

    Overall this is a very strong game. The combat takes some getting used to, unlike other Final Fantasy games, you're not in direct control of all party members so they don't always do as you'd expect, but over time you'll come to rely on their skills and they will save you from yourself when you charge in against 9 enemies. The soundtrack is sublime, listening to old FF games on the road is amazing. The car should offer more freedom, although it's understandable that they've not allowed GTA style freedom in going offroad. The side activities are fantastic, I've enjoyed Chocobo's and Fishing and Cooking and everything around they've left to do. It genuinely feels like a roadtrip with your mates, some side scenes and conversations that aren't essential just add to the game world.

    Overall, brilliant. The second half of the game (where you're on a more linear path) could do with some form of expanding, but overall it's a very, very good game.

    My verdict is that this is a horrible game, and a complete waste of time and money. Throughout the game you feel as if you’re building to something, and then it is all for naught, as if 300 of your precious hours were thrown in a dumpster, and then the garbage truck that was supposed to pick it up crashes into your car.

    My verdict is that this is a horrible game, and a complete waste of time and money. Throughout the game you feel as if you’re building to something, and then it is all for naught, as if 300 of your precious hours were thrown in a dumpster, and then the garbage truck that was supposed to pick it up crashes into your car.

    Square Enix had 10 years to develop this game and they screwed up,it just perfectly shows how disorganized and lazy they are. And as a last kick in the balls, SE also betrayed the trust of their own costumers by cancelling 3 needed episodes to complete the Story. It's almost as if they've lost the ability to tell a story. That's what was so great about all the other games. Either they really do lack creativity or they are now focusing on making the most profit with cash grabs ala Konami/EA/Activision/Blizzard nowadays.

    The Story is a stupidly melodramatic trainwreck.
    I watched FFXV Kingsglaive before playing this game. I thought it was a pretty great setup for the story, and I loved how it tied in with the beginning of the game. I had great expectations and honestly bought the game because of the movie. As you start playing the game, there is a lot of potential for the plot, the characters, and so on. It is as if Square Enix has lost the ability to tell a story.

    And in regards to DLC, they are even worse than EA as SquareEnix rips you off with small short DLC for bigger prices. See Rise of the Tomb Raider or Mankind Divided. At least EA DLC many times have substance behind them. They have the worst Season Passes in gaming by far.
    I feel like it’s also important to note that the actual main story quest is insanely short. Skipping the other stuff, this is probably a 15 hour game tops. And them looking at episodic games is just going to end in disaster, with them failing to understand how it works or even how Life is Strange succeeded (okay, they made a great move publishing that game and allowed DONTNOD to go with their vision, but really, EA would have let them do the same thing here).

    Magic. Magic feels pointless. Creating spells feels like a dud, crafting spells with items is not explained and not intuitive, the idea that you need to create a random elemental casting spell to get the highest damage is dumb, and I couldn’t even understand who or what was being damaged when spells were cast.
    Equipment. In every single Final Fantasy game, I’ve felt a significant difference when putting on new equipment and new weapons. In this one I have felt absolutely zero impact. Even if I put on a Magitek Suit for another 1000HP which sounds like a lot, the endless dodging, blocking and Hi-Potions and Hi-Elixers make it a totally moot point. In other games there’s very valuable and rewarding items that are usually acquired through difficult quests.

    Quests: Now due to the uselessness of the equipment, the quests were just plain stupid. There was not a single quest that was rewarding. The difficulty level for all the dungeons are absurdly low. They are just time consuming, have an easy boss at the end, and do not yield any good weapons or equipment. All the other side-quests too have pointless rewards, are time consuming, and do not add to the story in the slightest. Also, THEY ARE NOT FUN.

    The World: Wide as an ocean, deep as a puddle. The Map is huge yet we only get to acess 1/3 of the world map, were SE really so lazy not to finish the entire world map or was is stupidity? The world looks good and beaitiful but there is little to do.

    Microtransactions, releasing unfinished games, DLC nickel and diming, franchise whoring, development hell, and then writing off franchises because they failed due to their own actions.

    FFXV is a poster child of everything wrong with the industry, big budget AAA games that ship unfinished, lack direction other than its size, and the critics who willingly overlook its flaws because of the brand.

    This game brings out emotions in you that you didn't even know you had. Game ran fine on my 1070 along with my 144hz monitor. The controls felt great (PS4 dual shock controller) and I didn't run into any crashed and / or performance issues. For me it's a must play.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The story is absolutely great, the sinergy between main characters is so real! It's not a common love story, it's a rlationship between friends and loyalty. And a lot of humor.
    I like you can play little games into the main game, like taking photos, fishing...
    Also there are a few things that I dislike. Controls for pc are just absurd, instead combining them, there are a few different key combinations for everything, combats, moving, dodging, picture taking, albums and everything. It kills the great experience of the game. I also have problems with graphics, my mashine is pretty strong with good videocard, but no matter what resolution I choose some objects are very bad, like тheir hair, they move and it leаve white track. I never had that problem with other games.
    I surely have to say I hate the original final. I prefer any of the alternative ones. So the good guy had to die no matter he killed the bad guy? Just to make fans cry - kill the king, then make them love the prince, then kill him too. It really broke my heart watching Noctis die. Or Ignis losing his sight.
    And that end after that - japanese always make some happy wannabe endings what would happen if things went other way. Well it was even worst.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Graphically it's amazing, Soundtrack is awesome and I love the characters.

    Unfortunately the gameplay to me is where it lacks. It's too basic and most of the RPG elements are dumbed down heavily to what I call a button masher. That's my number one issue with this title. I expected alot more than just basics. It's all equipment stats and basic skill learning. Nothing really in depth. I expected learning heavy spells, learning complex builds, learning more combos and skills, etc. etc.

    The story was amazing up until after chapter 7 or 8 when it becomes a hallway and all freedom is gone. It looks like they could've done more with the game especially proven with the unfinished areas. I like it but it definitely could've been something grand.

    The quests and the traveling I really love with this game though.
    Optimization on this title is about average and can be better.
    Voice acting is suberb (Both ENG and JP) and I never got tired of Ignis's British accent. I loved it from beginning to end.

    I'm gonna keep this review short though. Long story short they should've left more development time to finish the work that was needed and gave us the unfinished regions. I still think today we should get all that missing stuff from XV as DLC because it's a shame. I would love for them to add new content for the game. Initially 60 dollar title was worth every penny for what it was but I feel like they could've done alot more too.

    8 out of 10. A great experience of a game but too basic for fans looking for something more complex and/or faster paced.

    Openworld is great
    Combat is just... There. 0 depth, 0 strategy. Have fun holding the same button for the whole game.
    Story is ass.
    10/10 ambiance.

    PUNTOS A FAVOR:

    - Buen sistema de combate, sencillo pero adictivo.
    - Gran sistema de progresión y sensación de ir mejorando.
    - Gran número de parámetros, estadísticas y equipo que influye en la partida.
    - Acabado visual con muy buen gusto, con algunas localizaciones sorprendentes e impactantes.
    - Apartado sonoro excelente, con especial mención a ciertas piezas musicales.
    - Personajes principales con gran carisma, pero totalmente desaprovechados a raíz de la trama.
    - Variedad enorme de monstruos y enemigos y un diseño de los mismos espectacular.
    - Gran número de añadidos en forma de minijuegos, batidas de caza, zonas secretas y en definitiva bastantes cosas que hacer.
    - Funcionamiento correcto en PC. Algunos problemas de rendimiento en determinadas zonas, pero buen port en general.

    PUNTOS EN CONTRA:

    - Hilo argumental muy muy pobre, al igual que la narrativa.
    - Capítulos muy descompensados y algunos aburridos en un tramo final de historia totalmente atropellado.
    - Misiones secundarias de relleno y de recadero. Insufribles.
    - El antagonista deja bastante que desear, así como la contextualización de todo lo que ocurre.
    - En un juego en el que debería primar la narrativa, el mundo abierto le resta gran parte de la intensidad.
    - Pésimo uso de las invocaciones.
    - El sistema de magia es totalmente prescindible para avanzar en el juego.
    - La cámara es simplemente nefasta. A veces no sabes ni donde está el personaje o qué está pasando en los combates.

    CONCLUSIÓN:

    Estamos ante un muy buen juego en casi todos sus aspectos, divertido a nivel jugable y bastante adictivo. Pero el nombre que lleva es "Final Fantasy", y esto le obliga a contarnos algo épico, algo que trascienda y algo que emocione, y para mi este juego no cumple con esto. El esqueleto es magnífico, pero le falta la parte más importante, el alma. En condiciones normales un juego como este tendría una nota más alta, pero considero que este factor es tan importante en este tipo de juegos que su carencia repercute mucho en su valoración final. A pesar de todo merece la pena jugarlo, pero me deja la sensación de oportunidad desaprovechada.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I got this game for free as a part of the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and decided I would give the game a try on my PC... It's REALLY good. This game seems to somehow keep me captivated the entire time I was playing, there wasn't ever a moment when I was playing just for the sake of getting to the next part of the game. This game heavily promoted exploration outside the main story as well with dungeons and 70+ side-quests to do. The dungeons on their own are fun on their own since a majority of them are optional and often times difficult, however the reward for completing them is well worth it, even if you only wish to play the game for the story. Every side-quest is fun and rewarding, and a lot of the time, completely unique as well; as well as enhancing parts of the game you wouldn't mess with otherwise. What I mean is, by doing side-quests related to Cindy you get parts to upgrade the Regalia which are fun customizations such as being able to go off-road and even JUMP with the vehicle, by doing side-quests related to Navyth you get fishing rods, lures, and reels, by doing side-quests from Dino you get equipment that helps over the course of the game such as boosting your stats more than most of the other equipment you find from just looting, and from doing side-quests from Cid you can upgrade weapons you get from other side-quests and from just looting. FFXV also has interesting gameplay elements on the side too like fishing which, as uninteresting as it was to me starting out, grew to be something I genuinely enjoyed as I completed more of the Navyth side-quests and unlocked dishes for Ignis to cook. The Cup Noodle side-quests are hilarious to go through as well because how forced the ad placement is, but nothing I would say needs to be removed since it's merely a side-quest.

    On to the main story/gameplay, it's pretty solid for the most part. The pre-rendered cutscenes are a straight 10/10 and the summons part of the game you unlock about a third of the way through are ALWAYS a spectacle to watch, they never grow old. The sound design is also fantastic and there isn't anything I can think of in my time playing FFXV that sounded out of place. I would've rated this game a 10/10 if it wasn't for the ending of the game from a gameplay-only perspective. Everything before Ifrit is great and should stay as is, but everything after just completely pales in comparison to the previous fight. While it's cool that these fights want you to play as the entire cast, (Gladiolus, Prompto, Ignis) it just feels out of place for these mini-bosses and ideally should've been saved for the fight with Ardyn in my opinion. The second of the 3 mini-bosses after Ifrit gave me a lot of issues for whatever reason as well and was the first and only time I died throughout the entire game on Normal difficulty, and was even harder than Ardyn himself, giving the player no time to breathe and when you are given time to breathe you have to literally take a shot in the dark to find her or risk being instantly wiped out with no chance to react when she decides to leave the shadows. The Ardyn fight was anti-climactic as well for something the entire game built up to. You pretty much just have to make a tricast spell with over 300 potency to completely decimate the first phase of the fight. The second phase is even easier, you only have to hold attack and OCCASIONALLY dodge Ardyn's attacks that hardly even hurt if you are hit. The last phase was also a joke literally requiring you to just hold attack and that's it. The actual ending to the story was great though and I have no problems with it.

    TL;DR game has fun side-quests to do, promotes open world exploration, a good story and visuals, but a lacking ending fight.

    Die Story ist gut .. aber kein FF 7 ... und für meinen Geschmack ist sie auch viel zu kurz.... dafür haben sie 99999999999999999 Nebenquests eingefügt.. wie wäre es gewesen nur halb soviele Nebenquests einzufügen aber dafür ne längere Mainquest .. die haben sogar nen 90 min CGI Film gedreht und man hätte sicher noch viel mehr machen können in der mainquest ... sowas kann ich nicht verstehen.

    Kampfsystem ist anfangs komisch .. fängt aber nach ner Zeit an zu gefallen. Magie fand ich immer komisch mit dem " Aufsagen " aus den Steinen. Aber ein gelungenerer Teil.

    Mit der Welt bin ich auch nicht so arm geworden .. in den alten FF Serien war man es gewohnt nur einen kleinen Teil der Welt erkunden zu können und nach und nach wurde man immer wieder weitergelassen .. hier kann man fast von Anfang an die komplette Welt erkunden ...

    Es gibt viele interessanten Charaktere .. die Charaktergruppe hat für mich aber zuviel von einer Boyband ... ich mag sie alle aber zu final fantasy passst so was nicht .. keine tiefen Geheimnisse eines Charakters das herausgefunden werden will .. etc

I want to care more about its characters, but a lot of stuff isn't put together well. Their character depth is explored in expansions that should be played in certain points in the game but are relegated to the DLC section, making it a jarring and confused experience. There's an Anime, some text scripts and a Movie, but none are bundled with the game. It's a great port, with solid compatibility and scaling. The story is broken and convoluted, but holds emotional weight. The voice acting is like a sine wave, going between serviceable to annoying and repetitive, sometimes even out of touch and inhuman, to fantastic dialogue that really show the depth of each character. The endgame is great, but there's almost no guidance to any of it. The music is amazing, but the car radio is terrible and doesn't feel like part of the world. Every good thing seems flawed with something else that had to be broken in some other way.

    Now, this is the PC version I'm reviewing, and I'm sorry to the season pass holders on console who didn't get the royal edition for free. I think they should've. I'm also writing this after PAX. I now know there are 4 more expansions and comrades will be a standalone release soon. I also know about the modding tools and level editor coming this year. until then, my review is not final, and i will update it accordingly when all the content is done and dusted.

During the first ten hours I really enjoyed the game, but as the incoherent story unfolded and battle mechanics grew boring I lost interest.

Square Enix does provide a digital certificate of completion which is well earned if you manage to sit through all the discombobulated cut scenes, and boring boss battles that liter the final eighth of the campaign. Don’t pay full price ($49.99 as of 3/31/2018) as this game is only worth $20-$30.

    It ran at 60FPS at 1080 on a AMD R9 390.

    No airship. Open island (not world) for only first third. Rest on rails. Story is derivative—just kill the love interest, that’s worked before. Short. Main story can be finished in less than 20 hours. Side quests nothing more than go kill this or that. Characters are all truly hateable.

    Awesome graphics. Everything else is junk. Combat is a joke... just mash buttons and win. That is not an exaggeration. ZERO CHALLENGE. The story is told with no passion whatsoever. The main characters are annoying and unlovable. Sidequests are menial and repetitive. I'd rather work a desk job than complete them.

    Very mundane creatively. Huge entourage + friendly fire = no fun. Graphics not even good, blurry to hide the badness. How is this such a big deal.

    Final Fantasy XV may not feel like an older game from the franchise, but that doesn't mean it's bad. I grew up with the older Final Fantasy game and while XV is different, that doesn't make it a bad game in the franchise. I enjoyed my time spent in game and look forward to doing more.

    While FFXV is at times engrossing and beautiful, it can also feel like a pretty, hollow shell. The last quarter of the game feels rushed, as if the developers had to wrap things up under pressure, and that's after waiting over a decade for this to come out. While it is not the stellar titan we hoped for, it's certainly Final Fantasy, and we can all be thankful for that.

    The PC port of Final Fantasy 15 is a monster regarding scope, but the gameplay isn't on par with older series milestones.
