Моє перше проходження Final Fantasy XVI тривало близько 45 годин. Я виконав усі побічні квести, створив усі види зброї, переміг у кожному полюванні, перевершив усі випробування, а потім одразу ж взявся за New Game+ у режимі Final Fantasy - еквівалент хардкорного режиму в цій грі. Я хотів заново пережити історію, щоб краще зрозуміти її нюанси розвитку персонажів. Хотілося почути вражаючий саундтрек від початку до кінця, і ще раз оцінити його віртуозний діапазон, міць і красу. Я хотів підняти ворогів у повітря, жонглювати ними, а потім вдарити їх об землю, перш ніж прикінчити їх ідеально розрахованим заклинанням. Це все просто так, так добре.

To sum it up: XVI has a combat of hybrid Devil May Cry, spectacles of Godzilla, sidequests of FFXIV, music of grand orchestra, story of a perfect mix between Final Fantasy, Attack on Titans, and Game of Thrones (with so so much better ending).

    It's a masterpiece. As a long-time fan, I can say this game deviates from traditional formula in its action gameplay only (and FF12 and FF15 already did that too. This game just did it better). Nearly everything feels extremely polished and top-notch. The story premise and execution, dialogue, acting, music, visuals (technically and artistically), and gameplay responsiveness are all top-tier.

I’m a long time Final Fantasy fan, and I know some people are upset about the lack of turn based combat, or perhaps the lack of controllable party members….Now I love turn-based combat, but the franchise has been moving away from that direction for decades now, so for me, it seems a silly thing to gripe about. In my opinion the strongest aspect of the franchise has always been storytelling, and this game is coming up all aces in that regard. Characters, storyline, music, cinematography all 10/10. The voice acting is utterly top notch. Ben Starr is an obvious standout as our main hero Clive, but there really are no weak-links in this cast, they all have such heart. You may not have the traditional “party” that many FF games have, but you absolutely have a great crew that feel so real. Even the minor side characters have their own stories you can learn about in side quests. And yes, I will admit…some of the side quests are simple “fetch quests” and kinda lame, but quite a few are really great for world and character building. Some are just downright silly, which is a charm all it’s own. All the Clive x serving food quests were pure meme’s by the end, and I grudgingly ended up loving it. This game is absolutely visually stunning. When even the weakest video game, over the shoulder shots look as good as this, what is there to complain about? I certainly don’t know. The explorable area’s are beautiful, the atmosphere’s are perfect, the cinematography in the cutscenes are artful. The fact that we can have such subtlety that speaks volumes in video games today is truly remarkable. And the boss battles!? The Boss battles!!! They are pure unapologetic spectacle!!!! Just wow. Final Fantasy is known for having great music and XVI delivers. Beautiful, heartstring pulling Melodies, as well as straight bangers! My personal favourite thing about all the music was the classic crystal theme that weaved in and out of many songs throughout the game at always just the right time. Going back to combat…although many of us lament the death of turn based, XVI’s combat is very fun. I’m not very good at action games myself, but this system is fluid and very satisfying. Ability tree’s that open up throughout the game are fun to play around with as you can re-spec your ability points at anytime for free. I think some of the hardcore gamers out there who like punishment might have wanted a harder difficulty from the onset, instead of having to wait for New Game+, but as that is definitely not me, I can’t say. XVI had some scepticism to combat, us Final Fantasy fans can be a hard to please lot. With this being the first M rated entry, and the mediaeval setting it was advertising, I think some of us didn’t know how to feel. One worry in particular I remember harbouring myself was, “Is it going to feel like a FF game?” I didn’t want a game that felt like a new dark souls because those are so popular. Well I’m pleased to say with confidence, that this is without a doubt a Final Fantasy game. It has that spark that I personally can’t quantify. That something that’s beyond chocobos, moogles, and magic. No game is perfect, but Final Fantasy XVI is a masterpiece all the same in my eyes.… Expand

    Final Fantasy XVI is as close to a 10 as a game has gotten for me in a good while. It's rare to find a game that blends together so many aspects perfectly. From the soundtrack and story, to the gameplay, bosses , eikon fights and characters, CBUIII and Square Enix don't fail to deliver. I can't recommend this game highly enough.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Live your life and meet your terms. FFXVI continues with the trend of the saga to always changes, transforms and that is Clive Rossfield. Clive can be anyone of us. That suffers, that has moments of happiness, and seeks to fulfill the goals of his life. A shield, a brother, a Lover, a Friend, a Leader when needed, and even more.

    He is the person that demonstrates that even if you are gifted with a great power, that is not relevant because what actually makes us great are the bonds that affiliate us with our goals to pursue. All to pursue an unknown future that is worth with fighting for. With a more tremendous Sacrifice, there is a greater chance to embrace a better future even though it is not visible. I consider that FFXVI innovates in-game story mecánics that should all future RPGs have and for the future FF it should have a bit more of RPG elements.

    This game is nothing short of a resurrection for the final fantasy saga.Heavy on fast paced and deep combat and somewhat light on the RPG component (which is by design) After all is said and done, when enough time has passed that trolls and envious gamers have lashed upon another exclusivity this will be recognized as one of the best entry in the Final Fantasy franchise.

    Square Enix did not disappoint.

    Just reach level 100 and platinum it. Yup it's not the usual final fantasy but it was great, much better than I'd have expected! I rate it as a 9.9 because it was very close to perfection. However I think it deserves a overall 10 because it is an extremely polished experience. Yes I have watch those video and read those articles condemning it, and maybe    Square Enix did not disappoint.

Critics are throwing out 60s because of 'lack of diversity' the user score is suffering from bot attacks.

    No matter which game wins GoTY, this game is the true GoTY. It's not perfect. It has faults. But TotK has even more glaring faults, which for some reason get overlooked(Such as the same bad performance this game is getting dinged for, recycling the same exact map to use again in its world, and the combat being extremely shallow which again, is somehow overlooked in TotK but this game is getting dinged for its combat). If reviewers were truly being objective, I feel like this game would be a 9.5 and TotK a 9.0, but apparently it doesn't work that way. With that out of the way, let me get to the pros and cons.

    -The boss battles. Holy #%#^ the boss battles. I don't think I've ever had such an exhilarating experience in a videogame in all the years I've played them.
    -The sound quality is the best you will ever find. The music is god tier. The sound effects all fit and the voice actors are great. Clive's voice actor is next level phenomenal.
    -The graphics are top-notch.
    -The characters are well done. You can truly feel how broken Clive is and the struggles that he has to surmount in his journey.
    -The world and lore is well crafted. Not for the faint of heart, it shows the cost of war and the grim reality of the human condition.
    -The combat is extremely fun to play. Do not listen to those who say you just 'mash one button'. In order for that to be true, they would've had to equip the accessibility items that basically play the game for them. Those items were created for people who only want to see the narrative and not have any sort of depth to their combat. If you were truly just mashing the attack button, you would do hardly any damage and die. What you're more likely to experience in combat is hitting square to attack, then dodging attacks(R1 button) or parrying as necessary countering right after. Your special attacks(R2+square, R2+triangle, R2+circle) play a huge role. These special attacks can be cycled by eikonic element to have different effects on the bosses. You also have your limit break which can be used by pressing L3+R3 that is on its own separate chargeup meter. One button combat? Stop being disingenuous.

    Now we get to the cons. I cannot rate these as positive things, but they did little to detract from my gameplay experience. However, this may affect some people more than others.

    Cons
    -The framerate issue is well known at this point. It is not a consistent 60 fps.
    -The linearity of the game can be a negative for those who wish to have a complete open world at their fingertips.
    -Playing only as Clive is a minor negative from me. I preferred to be able to play different members of my party.
    -The loot is simplistic and shallow.
    -The combat is indeed too easy, at least in the first playthrough of the story. It would have been nice if a harder difficulty was available from the get go.

    It's a true tragedy that this game is getting lower scores than it deserves because of stupid reasons like SJW agendas and bot attacks. True and objective game reviews are dead.    … Expand

    Surely, there is major cons for FF16, lack of traditional RPG's character/gear development, only one controllable character, etc.
    But after spending 45 hrs and approaching the ending, I can feel the sincerity and devotion of this game's developer that try to continue this series and even restor some of its glory moments. FF is not a series that tweak a bit every time. it changes every generation and tells different stories but still keep the"crystal tale" as its core, that is a "fantasy" rpg story. And FF16 did it.

    Also the new added action battle system gives a lot fun and battle between eikons is astonishing, which is highly recommend to play by yourself. Watching walkthrough video won't give you that.

    Based on FF16 did its job(tell a complete "fantasy" story) and action game play style and soul shaking eikon battles, I would give it 10. Then minus what is missing(the traditional RPG part) -1. Thus 9.

The ability to choose whichever Eikons you want (and associated elemental powers) without being forced to play a "meta" of sorts is refreshing. While I would love a turn based FF entry with modern graphics, I feel like those days are over. Bravely Default and Octopath Traveler can scratch that itch.

    The world is beautiful and feels alive. You spend a lot of time walking through forests and small villages and the number of NPCs is sufficient. The side quests in the beginning are very short but it is more of a tutorial. Later side quests have a bit more story to them without being distracting. The rewards may seem small but this is a lower number RPG if that makes sense (ie XP is rewarded in 10-15XP increments for killing an enemy with 5-6 giil).

    The characters are easy to love (or hate in terms of enemies) and is so much better than the characters of FF15. It is easy to tell that Yoshie P. was brought in to help with the story and characters. Speaking of story, it is very very dark and deserves its M rating. It does not shy away from the harder topics.

    "It doesnt feel like Final Fantasy" argument is overused. To me, this is part of the third generation of FF and it feels amazing. FF 1-6 were first gen, FF7-10 were the 2nd gen venturing into 3D, with FF 12-16 being more experimental.

    Cons:
    - Wish there was a traditional 3-4 member party system vs only playing as Clive
    - Normal mode feels Easy

    Background: I was worried about how FF16 would end up until I played part one of the FF7 Remake. The more action oriented focus is here to stay and for anyone wanting turn based RPGs, play Octopath Traveler. admittedly I was not a fan of FF 12-15 but loved the story of FF14. I am also a huge fan of Devil May Cry having played all of the games (same applies to FF).    … Expand

    Es el juego más increíble que he jugado nunca. Combates muy divertidos y épicos. Historia excelente, adulta y con giros que te dejarán de piedra. Soken ha hecho un trabajo espectacular con la banda sonora, lo mejor que he escuchado nunca. Espero que los siguientes Final Fantasy sean con la base de FFXVI. Disfrutad de esta joya, mí goty.

    Final Fantasy XVI is definitely off tone in direct comparison to the other games. That much is true. It wants to establish atmosphere and does that by forcing itself to be as "mature", dark, gritty and miserable as it can be by having graphical violence, sex and other elements all the time that DID exist in FF but wre glossed over by the fact it was in the old games that were from the 90s.Final Fantasy XVI is definitely off tone in direct comparison to the other games.

This makes it very hard to enjoy some scenes if you expect something similiar and that is the one thing that I fully admit can be too off for an FF. Nevertheless for what it wants to tell you, it utilizes these things well but I think this would have fit better for a Drakengard game because Drakengard and Nier are full of misery, violence and sex.

    Action combat: It is true that this is vastly different but if we are being honest, this is nothing new. Final Fantasy since XII re-invents its combat system all the time. XIII had a teeny-tiny bit of its system but XII was different, XV war different and heavily action focuses - and you could also only control Noctis before the patches, btw. - and here it is even more action packed. The switching of the summons is nothing special. They did that in Lightning Returns with the immediate costume changes for Lightning. Whether you like the change or not, you must be extremelly picky to say the combat and the boss battles are bad. However I would have liked if they at least gave the other party memvbers a small health bar below Clives and rudimentary commands that Clive could give them - similiar to Torgal. Their AI also needs improvement.

    Sidequests: Yes, it is undeniable. There are sidequests, especially early ones that do not tell a rewarding enough story but the ones that are good, are really good. A few of the bounties are also good and if can even do the time attack monoliths if you want a challenge. Overall I like that the sidequests and bounties made use of every single "somwhat of a village or bigger space." Especially some of the villages you might not even know of. They are not really there for much but it is a nice discovery. And again if people want to complain: Elden Ring and Zelda is full of repetitive, no value tasks. That is not an opinion. I played them for long enough and I would criticise them for that as well, because a lot of it is also "just there." So all of those games and not just Final Fantasy could do better. FF especially should bring back some minigames for the sidequests. In their essence repetitive sidequests that are drawn out because of constant conversations are not necessarily greatly executed.

    Story: Touching as always - especially the further it goes. A good chunk of it was in Lightning Returns as well. But what it wants to tell and how it presents it is beautiful. It gets a little corny but THAT is Final Fantasy. But it has pacing issues.

    Characters: Clive and Joshua and their dynamic are really good.

    Music: The boss theme, prelude and main theme are all fantastic and properly used.

    Metacritic is extremely pathetic and deletes everything I mention about the idiocies of the review bombs, so I will mention it again: The review bombs of 0s are extremely idiotic and pathetic. Even if you do not like the game, there is no reason for it to be a 0. This is still a high-quality game. People are also foolish enough to claim this is not an RPG just because it is pretty action-heavy. The game has everything that an RPG has. If you want to see which kind of people downvote the posts and the game, check their profile. Many of them were just here to give Zelda a 10 and have nothing else - at least a lot of the older reviews. That should tell you everything.    … Expand

    I can relate to a lot of the low reviews from people who have played the game properly.
    It's not that there isn't a single thing that I myself found lacking.
    But I despise those who try to manipulate the score with childish and miserable feelings just because they don't like the way FF16 is rated.

    I've also seen some people say that the higher rated reviews lack specificity and that the lower rated reviews are more specific and helpful.
    Do you have any idea how many days it's been on sale now?
    People who like this game are voluntarily taking spoilers into consideration.
    I don't want to take away from anyone's enjoyment, so I can still only give abstract impressions on social media.

    I've played this game for about 50 hours and it's a masterpiece, to say the least. The finish feels like the revival of the Final Fantasy series.
    It is made not for nagging critics, but for game fans who genuinely love the game.
    The battles, the movies and the story are all carefully designed for our maximum enjoyment.
    The immersive experience is unprecedented and you never know when to stop playing.
    The system that allows you to customise the difficulty of the action is really great.
    The story and battle presentation are also very FF-like, beautiful and 'cool!' I want you to see it with your own eyes.

Yes I will admit there's certain things they could of shown better for the other main characters instead of just clive. But in the end they also get development. Especially Jill and Joshua. The side quests are actually not that bad, there way... better than most of the side quests from previous final fantasy games. You saying ffxv is better than ff16 is like a huge insult to creaters and devs that actually care for the final fantasy storytelling unlike ffxv. I will admit the gameplay is very fun and cool and the bosses have there own type of fighting style unlike ffxv. But what I was going to save is even though it has that the game is still a bit too easy. I hoping yoship makes it way harder for us because the bosses are fun cool to fight. Unlike again FFXV! So I do hope we get some dlc content. Because u know what?! The game deserves it. The first final fantasy game in a long time that actually has a really good story. That's all I really wanted from a final fantasy game in so long. The gameplay they could easily fix. Not the story.

    This is easily one of the best games in the series. The action combat is incredible. The story has me on the edge of my seat. Let's be honest, game journalists insert their brainwashed Western-political beliefs into everything nowadays and if you were to review this game objectively it certainly isn't a 6/10.

    Ffxvi nos muestra una faceta renovada y acertada de como un juego de culto debe mantenerse vigente a las nuevas generaciones de jugadores, emotivo maduro y pulido, una gran joya para la ps5.

    Solo comento para ofrecerles a todos los haters, adultos con baja autoestima y mononeurona de la guerrita de consolas, unos pañuelos. Los necesitan para los lagrimones que no paran de soltar. Y algo para el ácido estomacal y la bilis que los está matando por dentro.

    Un abrazo. Ánimo!

    A masterpiece action game. There's really no rpg or strategy involved and most of the side quests are boring yet well voiced, but the story and characters make the main campaign an absolute joy to play through. The combat is addictive and fun with difficulty that never frustrates.

    This is a really Great Game So far I have put in about 30 hours into the game and Can't get enough of it, Hopefully, I should be completing it in a week or 2 as I am slowly enjoying the essence of this game and the design by Yoshi P, as I work in Game and VFX Studios and I know the painstaking time it takes to deliver a new IP or a Movie, people who have no knowledge or have never workedThis is a really Great Game So far I have put in about 30 hours into the game and Can't get enough of it, Hopefully, I should be completing it in a week or 2 as I am slowly enjoying the essence of this game and the design by Yoshi P, as I work in Game and VFX Studios and I know the painstaking time it takes to deliver a new IP or a Movie, people who have no knowledge or have never worked in this field should never be allowed to review.

    Rare that I pick up a new game and has me playing 6+ hours the first day alone. I put more hours in it since released day. I’m entertained by the story. Keeps getting better.

    Finished the game and did all side content.
    The story was incredible! It’s so good I can say that of a FF again. Combat smooth, and more ambitious game I have played on while.
    The firsts side quest and first zones are kinda tutorial and not top tier, but after a certain moment everything just improves. The last missions about the characters are great. Now it’s ng+ for combat content. I    Finished the game and did all side content.

    I don't want give spoiler but the post credit scene was a homage to Sakaguchi, it was so beatiful
    Game could use a hard option from begging though
    And omg the music was so on point.
    If I can request something to be more impressive and all round: using eikon abilities for exploration(titan breaks hidden walls, shiva freezing lakes for traversal, garuda claws to access more vertical levels)    … Expand

    The game is great.
    From an story perspective not sure what game are the haters playing, this is the most complex and mature themed final fantasy in years.
    The gameplay is very hack slashy, think devil may cry, and that is a good thing. The whining about the system is missing the point on whay you should focus on this game, if you want a more rpg turn based experience go play persona,    The game is great.

    WOW! Ein richtig schön düsteres Final Fantasy. Die Inszenierung ist klasse, tolle Grafik und Musik. Hochwertige (deutsche) Sprecher. Auch das Kampfsystem überzeugt und ist bombastisch. So muss es sein. Wer auf Herr der Ringe, Game of Thrones, Witcher usw steht, wird hier gut aufgehoben sein. Hoffentlich kommt noch ein Addon in ähnlicher Qualität! Das ist Playstation!

    As a long term Final Fantasy player I have enjoyed the utter hell out of this game -Great Combat easy to get into but gets deeper as the game goes on (not the single button mashing that the people that have never played this game are claiming it to be unless you use the accessibility items which are ment for the people with disabilities - Great FF story will a lot of great and deep momentsAs a long term Final Fantasy player I have enjoyed the utter hell out of this game -Great Combat easy to get into but gets deeper as the game goes on (not the single button mashing that the people that have never played this game are claiming it to be unless you use the accessibility items which are ment for the people with disabilities - Great FF story will a lot of great and deep moments masterfully voice acted - Music is amazing and really immerses in the world and environment - Avtive lore time is a godsend and all games should have this feature moving forward - Epic ser peices and cut scenes that really bring out the tension Overall would highly recomend to all JRPG fans and even DMC/Bayonetta fans… Expand

    With FF16 you get amazing combat, and Story and Incredible Music, while it's not really an rpg with in depth progression systems, it's still a fantastic action story game.

    Final Fantasy XVI is an excellent game in every way. If you're a fan of the series for the stories and characters, you won't go wrong here, and if you've avoided the series for, say, turn-based combat, the sixteenth installment offers the perfect opportunity to get started with this legend of the gaming industry.

    This is a solid RPG/action game. Some elements of the game are unusual and fresh for single-player parts of the Final Fantasy series, but some are too dull and rudimentary.

    New numbered FFs are good again. Stunning to look at, with new, punchy combat, and a great yarn, it is, if anything, too focussed, lacking a bit of the weird. [Issue#30, p.78]
