    Wow, this game is sweet. The boss fights are amazing! Don't trust the screenshots. In motion, this game looks amazing! You can see the huge budget. The main thing is that is really fun, and the story is gripping. This game is so good that my review sounds like PR.

    one of the best games I've played of 2023. It's a little different than other final fantasies entries. But I got to say I'm loving the new combat system. Great story, decent side missions, memorable characters. I gotta say the demo won me over. Product got To my residence fast.

    One of the best Final Fantasy games I've played if not one of the best games I've played. Combat it tight and responsive. With ways to customize your abilities to fit your play style. All on top of an amazing story. Outstanding game.

    I honestly thought this game was going to be decent but it turned out to be one of my favorite games of all time. I've never played a game in my entire life that filled me with so much excitement and emotion. This game deserves to be called a masterpiece. 20/10

    Stunning visuals, fast paced combact and a bunch of content for days of playing. This game blew my expectations out the roof. Great story, a bunch of lore and amazing characters. This is sure the best final fantasy mainline title game ive palyed in a very long time.

    The game is linear but not as much as say FF 13 and its ilk. It has an engaging battle system but most importantly it has a story withc characters you will care about. Its voice acting is some of the best. And if youre a seasoned FF fan, youll notice some of nuanced callbacks that go as far back as FF1.

    I haven't played all final fantasy games only a fraction of them (7,10 and the sequels,12,13,15), but I have to say this is their best work and the influence from a lot of other studios shows, I can easily recommend this game to any fan without any doubt.

    Great game. Awesome story and beautiful visuals. The complaints about gameplay can be valid but I feel like its overblown. Once the other Eikons are unlocked, combat opens up. There are some broken combos that destroy enemies health bars but bosses still take time.

    Very good game , i loved the combat and the world design. The characters had life and emotion. The story is top notch. The only draw back would be a few hours in i hit a fun wall , but I keep going only to come out with a story/ending to the game. Its a real FF piece. Top 5 of FF games.

    Everything about this game is near or at perfect. The story and characters are interesting, mechanics are simple yet fun, music is hype, and the Eikon battles are just something else entirely. People will talk about some of the fights in this game for years.

    While this game is a significant departure from the traditional formula, it's still a really good action rpg with numerous challenging bosses, interesting characters, and the story is quite the spectacle. It's definitely a better game than 14, that's for sure.

    If you're going to play a RPG this year, this should be on your shortlist of choices. It's probably one of the best games I've played so far this year in a really stacked year for games. Music, art style, graphics. I'm having a blast with Final Fantasy XVI

    A very different Final Fantasy than previous numbered entries which makes this an action game first and RPG second. The story kept me hooked and I was always looking forward to the next combat encounter. What a great entry in the series and would highly suggest you give it a try if you are into action games.

    Loving the more streamlined approach to a FF game. The pacing of story and combat to bring the series along with a more modern approach was nailed with this one. Definitely more of an action game than traditional RPG. Story has plenty of jaw-dropping moments.

    Great story writting and the image on a high end tv or monitor is just amazing(ps5) but i assume others will be just as good. Forst final fantasy game ive ever played.there is alot of cut scenes. Normally i dont like that. But the story is s good i didnt mind. And the voice overs are great

    Great game so far. I have played about 10 hours and this new take on a final fantasy game is fun. The story is interesting and has me hooked. There are accessibility settings/ in game accessories that make this game playable for most if not all gamers.

    Final Fantasy XVI is an incredible experience from start to finish. The story is engaging, the combat feels fast and exciting, and the visuals look amazing on PS5. It feels more action-focused than previous entries, but it works really well. Definitely a must-play for any Final Fantasy fan.
