I might have cared about this game if the first one wasn't one of the worst RPGs I've ever played to completion, lol. Was it the worst, or the dumbest story redux we've ever seen? Up to you.

While I appreciate that they're trying new eras and regions, this one is probably going to be a pass for me. Ancient Egypt is cool to learn about, but Bronze Age warfare and the tech level is pretty...

@jenovaschilld: Brilliant!? Wow, uh…geez. What’s amazing to me is that they took what amounted ~5 hours of content from the original story and stretched its ancient skin over 20 hours while managing...

Wow another eastern mobile gatcha game. Tooootally excited.

Super excited to not play this. The first "remake" was one of the most most tedious games I've ever finished and they should have called it "Corridor Simulator" for how much time you spent climbing ...

I don't even know why you'd write this article 13 years after the fact. Bioware's "romance" options are ridiculous in general and have been for a long time at this point. Like most of the studio's w...

I tried playing the free trial in June, and quite honestly it was the slowest and most boring gaming experience of my life. I think I made it to level 20 and finished the first 3 starter dungeons, a...

@davlin1984: FF13's story wasn't very good, and the character design was even worse. It's hard to stay interested in the game if you don't like the characters. FF games have never been triumphs of ga...

@jenovaschilld: Part of the appeal was that it left a lot more to the imagination. Without voice-acting you had some liberty to make your own conclusions and the games meant something different to ev...

@climhazard5: Vaan...right up there with Cait Sith and Vanille for worst FF character ever.

@climhazard5: Dumpster fire was hyberbole, but FFXIII was the nail in the coffin for a lot of long-term FF fans and turned a lot of people away from the franchise. It had already been in steady decli...

@lion2447: Everyone is on the side of story over fetch quests. The only time that random side-quests work is if you're getting actually decent little side-stories and/or really interesting places to ...

@gleencross: Almost guaranteed. They're a forward thinking studio, developing games for today. Square has its head so far up its own nostalgic butt that they haven't delivered anything legitimately c...

@gleencross: The main story was...interesting...although far from coherent. The parts that made it work were the characters and the mystery behind the chase for Sephiroth. The bulk of the story's go...

@vfighter: Disagree, but that's about all we can really do. I think Cloud especially looks ridiculous - dude looks like he weighs just over a buck and he's swinging the Buster sword around. Okay Tet...

@paopumilkshake: In your head, I'm sure there's only that dichotomy. Either we have a ladyboy, or dudebro. Those two caricatures are the ONLY options. Yup. Makes sense.

When Cloud was a bunch of polygons, my imagination carried it from there, and that was good. Now that Cloud is realistically 3D animated, I can't do it. I couldn't hate the character design more. T...
