@Pete, I think you will enjoy the game, but just know that it definately needs some work. The reason why I'm so dissapointed is because they had so much time to make it great. I agree with Nix's cuitiqe in the sense that there are a ton of gaps. It's feels like they had some amazing ideas, but ended up scrapping them in the end. Instead, you get a ton of game filler , in the form of side quests, that has nothing to do with the story (they're not even fun or interesting in my opinion, but I'm obviously still playing) Regardless, you can tell they really tried to appeal to the old school players. I plan to give the dlc a chance, but there's no way to fill the void completely imo. You still should definitely play the game.
@Tiff I debated looking it up, (Brotherhood as well) but it really breaks my heart that the background wasn't in the game... It's kind of a basic ingredient...As a result, I'm traversing an empty story. I'm also not a fan of having to look elsewhere other than the final product (which should have been well polished by this point). I did't really feel connected with any of the characters (besides Prompto because he's my bae <3) and I really wanted to feel bad for Noctics, but I couldn't because I had no idea what his previous relationships were like with any of the characters.
I wouldn't have minded waiting longer for the release had they finished a well-rounded game. I honestly feel kind of bad burning this one because I can tell they worked really really hard, but I think they either focused too much on the wrong things (aka making everything look pretty, elaborate character interactions, extra dialogues etc. etc. ) or scrapped too much of the right things.
My verdict until further notice is: It's a great game, but not a great Final Fantasy.
