I personally believe its a good game. Its the only FF game that has interested me since X. The battle system has its kinks but what battle system doesn't. I personally hated FFXIII's battle system with a passion and was hoping for something like the battle system the game has but keeping with the old stuff. I personally love warping around. It takes alittle getting used to at first but once you get it you'll enjoy it. I like it way better than FFXIII's battle system. It's not frustrating and its very fluid to me and that's what I enjoy. I don't like the magic system but I never have been much for magic in RPG's at all. It really takes skill to use that one correctly. The only one I use magic in is Dark Souls The graphics are amazing as per a 2016 game. It should look great and be a beaut to view. Don't got much more to say than that. You need to watch Kingsglaive and Brotherhood if you want to have a full understanding of the preplot to the game or just go look up what happens. One or the other. The story telling isn't bad at all. Its intense at times as it should be. I love Noctis because he reminds me alot of myself. I won't reveal many spoilers but I think its a good story. The open world is good but it doesn't go to its full potential. However, for the westernized JRPG that keeps with its old roots, I think it was done very well. It doesnt compare to some of the triple A titles who have been working on Westernized Open World RPG's for years like Bethesda and others have. However, this should be obvious since they are trying to blend the two together. We have to remember that this is 2016 for the old FF folk that are annoyed. This is a generation of open world and very sandboxy games. I didn't mind the fetch quests. I've played Maple Story for almost 11 years and I'm used to it. If you are annoyed by fetch quests you'll be annoyed! I personally do not like the "stumble upon secondary quests" attitude. I can deal with it if it was the prominent use of secondary quests in this game. Yes there is alot of time spent in the car, that's what you have fast travel for. Be thankful, they could've made you walk the entire game. Finally, do not go into this game expecting a savior. Final Fantasy 15 is not a savior. It is the foundation of something they really can build off of. We all know the JRPG's are struggling and the reality is they need to blend JRPG's and Westernized stuff together or they will continue to struggle. Some people may think this is an insane comment. I do not believe it is. I believe that if they polish up alot of the stuff in this game they truly could revive the series. Likewise, do not come in overhyping it or you will be disappointed. I was skeptical of the game when I first played it but once I settled in I personally enjoyed it. So go into the game and enjoy the game. Do not nit pick at everything you see because you'll find yourself rating it a 5 and say you wasted your money and whine like a baby. Its definitely a 7-8 game but because I love the series and am hopeful that this is the beginning of something good I gave it a higher rating. I'm glad I bought the game and its definitely been a fun time enjoying it and taking it slow.

I have no idea why game reviews rate this game so low. The game series especially this are definitely an average of an 8. The MMBN Series has always been an amazing underrated series that has been overshadowed by Pokemon. Now don't get me wrong I've bought and played and loved every Pokemon game up to Moon. The same complaints put here could be applied to many Pokemon games that existed throughout the years and many of them have and up to Moon received many of them. Many of the reviews claim the graphics are of 4 years ago. Well it was 2006 and a handheld at the end of its life, the GBA SP. So honestly can it. Pokemon's graphics didn't really super heavily until the DS era and it didn't really hit until X and Y. Which is when MMBN went to Starforce. The battle system is good and forces you to actually be good at the game and have a strategy not just button mash A until something faints. You have to actually come up with a strategy with your chip folders throughout the series, from PA's to others. As well as your Navi Customizer. Each Chip has 4 different variants and allows you if smart and crafty enough to use all 5 in a window at once if you know what you're doing. The story is actually enticing throughout the series. It is the finishing of the story and its worth the play. However, you definitely should play previous games in the series. If you don't care about the story which is weird if you don't its an RPG really, then just jump right in. Even in 2016 games these days don't compare to the amazing stuff the old games give. Overall, don't listen to the people who put down here that much didn't change. Much hasn't needed to in this game series to begin with. Enjoy it and have fun because that's what games are for. It could've been No Man's Sky.
