Wait a second… Rosaria… is this an ivalice alliance game???
I hate to take part in internet parlance, but it’s so true that “final fantasy hits differently”. From the opening, I could draw comparisons to Nier Automata and Tales of Arise, but once the story pulled back a bit and went in a decidedly slow-paced direction where we just kinda sat with the characters for a bit… I knew we are in for something with a much higher ambition and depth even then those amazing games.
The flavor text in this game is fantastic. This is one of the rare games that makes me want to read all the log entries and location descriptions. This alone is making me want to give FFXIV another shot. Yoshi-P took us to flavortown 🙏
Anyway my dualshock controller died so I had to quit as soon as I took control of Larsa whatever the new kid’s name is.
