With Part 2 of VII announced XVI seems to have slipped under the radar Yeah, feels like it has been the least hyped mainstream release in a good min Like I still remember the Lean on me commercials that was all over the place for FF15

Yeah FF16 hasn't had that zing hype for the wider audience it seems like other FF titles (in its defense FF7 has the benefit of being the massively popular FF7, and 15 had the benefit of a like near 10 year hype cycle starting with Versus XIII that built and built even after it changed into basically a completely different game with 15) but I've been very excited for 16 from the jump.
AND NOW VERY VERY EXCITED AFTER THAT DEMO GEEEEZ

AND NOW VERY VERY EXCITED AFTER THAT DEMO GEEEEZ I think that is more on Square not putting the hype machine behind it. I assume they don't think people will be into "dialing it back to basics" but have you seen the way this game looks, it is gorgeous and feels like an action set piece. Seems like they believe the game is going to sell regardless but all resources and hype is behind the 7 remake

Haven't played the dmeo yet. Hope they have had the chance to actually finish the game before releasing.
I enjoyed 15 a lot, but there were large parts of the game which seemed very rushed and unfinished with bits of plot cut or missing.

In theory, the idea could have worked but just way too many moving parts to fill in the gaps between anime, DLC, movie etc The overall complete package tho is a great game

This might end up my favorite game ever made. That demo was shocking and so much fun.

Played the demo (both parts of it) and had a lot of fun with it. The story is pretty intriguing. Looking forward to playing the whole thing, even if I can see the combat quickly boring me. Call me old but I really do miss the turn based Final Fantasy games.

I bought a damn PS5 for this game. I’ve been so excited for it. I have selfishly pinned all of my hopes on this game being the one that ends all the blights of the current gaming landscape (seemingly every AAA game being unfocused, open world slop that isn’t even fun or satisfying to actually play moment to moment)

After how good a job Yoshi-P and co. did with the Critically Acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV (insert copypasta about the free trial here), I have faith that they'll deliver a very satisfying, mature narrative with FF16. The gameplay also looks like a lot of fun with Clive being some sort of cross between a Summoner and Blue Mage in how he can switch between using different Eikons' powers. What little we've heard of the soundtrack shows that Soken has delivered another excellent score just like he did with XIV.
Only reason I'm not as hyped about this as I should be is because I don't have a PS5. Not for lack of wanting one either.

It'll probably be amazing but I'm gonna miss not having party members.
