    Exceptional experience. A rich and majestic open world with a unique and epic Lore. One of the most exciting and best Final Fantasy I've ever played.

    I honestly love this game! Noctis and bros are supercool, story is great and there is one of the best villains of all time, music id one of my favorite in entire series- Yoko Shimomura is genius. It really is worth playing!

    The storyline, voice acting and fun battle system made this game a pleasure to play. The bond between the characters and emotional ending was great. Well done.

    Un juego que me dio alrededor de 100 horas de mucho entrenamiento, la narrativa es muy buena, los gráficos diría que regulares, las mecánicas de pelea me encantaron y la música es la mejor de todos los tiempos de los videojuegos

    Great start from Final Fantasy series. As series’s first Open-world action RPG, Final Fantasy XV has shown that they are on right path.

    I wish I could give half score, then my score would be 9.5, but my criticisms aren't enough to give it a 9.

    I have only played this game with the Royal Edition or Windows Edition. This version has all the dlc and updates in the game already so I don't know about those things people had issue with in the past. But this game, the AI system between the 4 main characters is so wonderful.

    But this game, the AI system between the 4 main characters is so wonderful. It feels like you are truly seeing 4 guys on the road, bantering and laughing and becoming family. The story has some issues, and that's my main reason for the lack of .5 score. The reasoning of the gods is confusing, why they needed to curse Ardyn, why Noctis needed to die to save Ardyn... it's rather nonsensical, but I believe that's a holdover from Tetsuya Nomura... who is known for that.
    My biggest issue lies in Luna, she is under utilized and the things she does for the story and Noctis are downplayed. She is the one who even got the gods to give Noctis their powers, she went around the world healing people, she even tried to save Ardyn, and yet the story barely focuses on her and greatly suffers for it.
    But again, that disrespect for female characters seems to be a hold over from tetsuya nomura's style as can be seen in KH and FF7R.

    The game design, and character development is so good among Noctis, Ignis, Gladio and Prompto however, that you can easily drop 400 hour sin this game and still have fun.

    A very good trip with friends.
    Awesome music, cool open world.
    The only bad point is the conclusion, which is too much quick and in a little mess.
    But a very good moment with this game. Thanks Square

    One of my favorite games of all time, and I was surprised to notice that is my favorite Final Fantasy. The history cloud be better explained, but even though the game is amazing. It’s a true Final Fantasy game with very nice drama, soundtrack, heroes, classic monsters, etc.
    It’s started the trend for a more action combat system perfected by FF VII Remake and FF XVI. The Royal Edition fixed

    As a fan of final fantasy, until today only FFVII AND FFXV have had my rating of 10. FFXV is one of the best games of the ps4 generation, the gameplay, graphics, music are great, what more can I say .. .. you have to play it.

    Story: 9
    Gameplay: 10
    Music: 10

    Personal score: 10 A MASTER PIECE !!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Final Fantasy XV is a game published on 29 November 2016 by square enix company. This game called to be one of the best games in 2016. However, it’s still have disadvantage things like bugs and uncomplete story.
    First start with Final Fantasy XV’s false. Uncomplete story. If anyone who want to know the whole story of Final Fantasy XV, he or she must watch animation “Final Fantasy XV : brotherhood” also with movie “Final Fantasy XV : kingsglaive” but it’s still shorter compare with previous episode (about 24 hours). Bugs, Final Fantasy XV have many bugs also with long load game time with cause from limitation of budgets and times. (Many people think that this game has use 10 years to develop but the true is it’s use only 3 years instead).
    But, in disadvantage things, Final Fantasy XV still have more good part like great character design for both male and female character designs, Real time battle which allowed player to controlled up to 4 characters at the same time. Open world, player can control the character to move other from the main story to farming and boss hunting to get better equipment which has level from very easy to very hard. Also, with another mode of gameplay like take a photo, cooking food and fishing.
    Finally, even Final Fantasy XV still have disadvantage things, but the good part is more. So, many gamers and fans of this game are supposed that Final Fantasy XV is one of the best games in 2016.

    Very good game. One of the best I've ever played. Oh and don't bother with the DLC. They ruin this game's perfect ending.

    After so many years of development, Final Fantasy XV is not what I expected it to be. The universe is immense and beautiful and the characters are just fine. But the story is short and disappointing and the gameplay suffers from lack of depth. FFXV is a good game, but it can never bring the former glories back to the series.

    Even as you reflect on the rarity of a blockbuster that's willing to take real risks, you'll be left with the uncomfortable realisation that ten years wasn't quite long enough, after all. Those jagged edges are, in the end, just a little too sharp. [Feb 2017, p.110]

    Despite a divided feel, torn between what it was and what it plans to be, Final Fantasy XV has a lot to offer. If you're a diehard JRPG fan, then it's a positive sign that the series can cross over to a new format. And if you're just looking for an open world adventure, Final Fantasy XV certainly has that in spades, while doing just enough things differently to separate it from the likes of Dragon Age and Elder Scrolls.
