As a long term FF fan, FF16 and FF7 remake is what made me lost all my faith in this series.
The story of FF16 is fine at the first half (although extremely similar with a TV series), second half ha some interesting lore but feels unfinished. Ending is terrible.
As for gameplay, I dont mind action RPG but there's no rewards on how I perform in the game. I can have a perfect combo with no damage but there's no benefit of it. In the end I just spam whatever I have to quickly go through the story, which also has a huge pacing issue on the second half.
It's the FF game that I sold after I finished it. I hate the story of FF7R (again, HUGE pacing issue) but at least the gameplay is fine.
@WhiteUmbrella dude I criticise Nintendo a lot, but I just don't think this is an issue at all What's your point? We don't know if there will be any game that will require analogue triggers on switch 2 anyway. IF there are games that supports it and you want to use it, just buy it on other platforms and don't support Nintendo. How hard is it? Won't be replying anymore, there's literally no point on arguing with you since your mind has been set on criticizing this.
Again, don't like it, don't buy it. Talk with your action instead of posting useless comments like this. Bye.
@WhiteUmbrella there's no game on switch that REQUIRES analogue triggers. Yes a few games support it, but they can be played without any issue. If you don't like it, don't buy it. Simple as that.
@roy130390 plenty of hidden areas / landmarks / unique monster to find on the map. There's also many benefit for us to explore the map that will give us passive income / resources. The main city have hundreds of quest with stories and quest without story.
The battle system also encourage us to battle more so we can master more classes.
There's a reason so many of us spent 300-400 hours on the original game on wii u 😅
@link12684 I agree. As someone who loves FFVII - FFXII (Except X-2 lol), the demo of XVI sold that game to me.
Unfortunately after finishing that game, my wife and I both thought that XVI is a big piece of trash. It's like they can't write a decent story since XII (even XII is meh tbh)
FF7R again is another big disappointment. Gameplay was decent, but the story and characters are terribly boring.
FF16 will be the last FF game that I bought without a discount, and I stopped watching game reviews after that.
@N00BiSH dude are you really following Sony? People don't need their high spec ***** anymore. I am a PS fan and PS5 games has been quite disappointing to me, and the recently released ps5 pro felt like a slap to us Sony fans. I am glad they are porting most of their games to PC because I don't think I will get a ps6 in the future.
Does the graphics of PS games amazed me? hell yeah. But after 4-5 games looking so similar I kinda don't care anymore.
some of these comments are crazy lol. There are a lot of places that are not allowed any photos taken. Some comments even suggested people that followed the rules are sheep, wtf? RESPECT the rules no matter where you are. Don't like the rules? Don't go there then.
@Anti-Matter erm what? I have Chinese background too but nothing a small group of individual do shall reflect the entire race lol. There's copycat literally everywhere.
@stinkyx don't worry, the gameplay is still super fun, just have lower expectations on the story. It's not all that bad, I just don't like the multiverse stuff.
Multiverse ruined Marvel, Bayonetta & Mortal Kombat. There's no impact on the story / character anymore since there's always "another version" from other universe.
@rushiosan totk didn't change the redefines the entire genre like BoTW, and when BOTW came out it was also the launch period of Switch, and 2017 didn't pack nearly as much good games as this year. There's simply way too many newsworthy stuff going on this year, we have some of the best games and worst games ever made, tons of news about xxx gaming companies getting hacked / staffs getting fired ETC I don't think it's fair to call a game dead just because is not on the headlines any more, the sales are still going very strong for this game, but hey, whatever man I am kinda tired of arguing this.
@rushiosan every trend dies after awhile on tiktok, and like I said there's simply too many good games this year who took the spotlight when they were newly released.
Just visit any of the totk reddit boards or simply youtube search totk sort by date, and you will know why I said the game is not even close to dying. Not every game needs to be on trending to have a active community. Furthermore, I am sure this game is on the wish list for many younger gamers for Xmas.
@MrHonest Not sure why are you posting troll comments here, but Nintendo is definitely few of the companies remaining that try to be creative instead of making games that have pretty graphic. Kirby forgotten land is one of the most creative game this year
@RubyCarbuncle the tutorial is actually much better than XC2 lol, it took me a few trial & error to fully understand chain attack but it actually did a good job at explaining everything.
Is that your first xeno game? if yes, then it will probably be a bit overwhelming for you and i completely understand that
@Bl4ckb100d you did realise there are quite a number of fantastic indie games recently were developed in mainland China and published by other oversea publishers right? Many cutscenes/animation in western / Japanese big studios were also done by Chinese studios.
Maybe you should grow up and realise that every country's citizen is just trying to live their ordinary life, regardless of their political situation.
Hating a game /any form of art based on which country produced is simply childish and extremely disrespectful.

Re: Legend Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom Director Makes 2023 'Variety500' List

Again, just because you don't like it doesn't mean it's not a good game. Millions of people enjoyed it.
Re: Legend Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom Director Makes 2023 'Variety500' List
@rushiosan just because you didn't follow it doesn't mean it's not popular
Almost every gaming website has nominated this game as GOTY, the game has multiple subreddit that have people sharing their gameplay every single day.
This year simply have too many great games, and it didn't reinvented the whole genre like BOTW, but saying the game is dead is ridiculous
Re: Legend Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom Director Makes 2023 'Variety500' List
@rushiosan what do you mean its dead??there's literally new videos on YouTube everyday, new speed run, new discover, new lore, new let's play etc
