I feel like this game kind of came out of nowhere. We got a few small announcements and then nothing major until close to the release date, unlike the insane marketing blitz that was FF15. Maybe I was just out of the loop.
Anyways I’m curious if anyone has any thoughts or opinions about it? I love Final Fantasy games but this one seems so different. Tbf I haven’t played the demo, I’m planning on trying it tonight, but I’m curious what everyone thinks about such a major release.
You weren’t out of the loop, SE was keeping it on the down low. Partly because there have already been two major production delays (COVID, invasion of Ukraine) and it hasn’t been super clear when it would be ready for release. The producer is also doing double duty being the producer for 14 (if increasingly in name only) which probably isn’t helping anything.
Ah that’s good to know! It felt like it went from announcement to radio silence to boom it’s releasing in a month. I’ve forgotten that it’s already been 7 years since FFXV dropped!
I get COVID but how did invasion of Ukraine delayed FF16? Do you have any source on that?
