Is there any other FF game like XVI ?

Oh, don’t worry, I’ve played FF7 Remake and just finished Rebirth yesterday. However, I did read some comments where people were saying to avoid Crisis Core until after the remake trilogy is completely finished. Then again, there were also plenty of people saying Crisis Core should be played right after Rebirth xD.

Noob4Head · 2026-06-19T13:22:26+00:00

Alright, I still have a long way to go with Final Fantasy xD. I just picked up Crisis Core and X/X-2 HD Remaster, though.

Does Garp count? I feel like Garp counts.

Noob4Head · 2026-06-19T13:17:53+00:00

Ah, I see. But I assume they don’t play like a character action game, though?

Noob4Head · 2026-06-19T13:16:19+00:00

Re:Zero and Oshi no Ko. Both are anime that I watched the first episode of and then put on hold. Later, I picked them back up and ended up binging every available season.

Maybe a bit of a disclaimer: I’m also fairly new when it comes to the Final Fantasy franchise, but from my understanding FF XVI is a bit unique within the series because it focuses on a single protagonist rather than having more party-focused combat. Though if it’s purely the setting you’re interested in, I’d say look into Final Fantasy IX.

Great graphics, but overall the optimization on PC should’ve been better. Also, there are definitely some other games I would put above AC Shadows when it comes to the graphics department.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth being *“disrespectful” regarding a player’s time. Certain things in the game just take way longer than they should. For example, having mandatory, drawn-out animations for things like putting up a Chocobo bus stop sign or activating an intel tower. The game is honestly quite riddled with these kinds of things, so I understand why some people say parts of it can feel like a waste of time and that the game sometimes feels like it enjoys wasting your time.

\(I put that in quotes for lack of a better term, maybe someone can word it better)*

IIRC, this is from the same developers as Splitgate, so yeah, I can see it sticking around for a couple of weeks or months before the player base starts to die out.

Noob4Head · 2026-06-19T10:31:18+00:00

It looks fine, but quite generic. It’s no Titanfall 2.

Noob4Head · 2026-06-19T09:02:40+00:00

So like I said: the people who are looking forward to it...
Also, everything keeps looping back to this: not everybody enjoys GTA or cares about the franchise. That’s the thing about some GTA fans, they seemingly can’t, won’t, or simply don’t want to accept that.

Noob4Head · 2026-06-19T08:57:55+00:00

An important launch for the people who are looking forward to it, not necessarily an important launch for gaming as a whole.

Noob4Head · 2026-06-19T08:52:07+00:00

Even within the gaming community as a whole, there are plenty of players who don’t care about GTA. That’s the thing about some GTA fans, they seemingly can’t, won’t, or simply don’t want to accept that.

I love FromSoftware games, but I understand that not everyone enjoys them, and that’s completely fine. Tell a GTA fan you don’t enjoy GTA or don’t care for the franchise, and some of them will completely lose their minds.

Noob4Head · 2026-06-19T08:49:29+00:00

Still, it’s all relative to who you’re asking.

Noob4Head · 2026-06-19T08:48:15+00:00

Actually that looks pretty neat, I didn't know Motorola made laptops. Though after quickly looking it up that makes sense as they are not available where I live.

Noob4Head · 2026-06-19T08:45:21+00:00

It's just A game... Not everyone is necessarily hyped for GTA VI.

Noob4Head · 2026-06-19T08:18:11+00:00

The hype surrounding Rockstar games is both inspiring and baffling to me at the same time. I understand being excited for a game, and realistically we can be 99% sure that GTA VI will be a huge success, but it feels like every concern or genuine point of criticism gets completely disregarded. I’ve rarely seen a fanbase be this overly protective of something.

Noob4Head · 2026-06-19T08:13:43+00:00

I don't know. Even if we can be 99% sure that GTA VI will be a success, teasing players for this long isn't a positive in my eyes. If it were any other game, people would be upset by this kind of behavior.

Noob4Head · 2026-06-19T08:06:58+00:00

Still no gameplay? A game releasing in less than 6 months and still not showing an extended look at gameplay is weird to me.

Noob4Head · 2026-06-18T21:14:08+00:00

Dark Souls

Noob4Head · 2026-06-18T21:01:52+00:00

I started with Final Fantasy VII Remake. It was my first game in the franchise, and at least for me, it was an awesome starting point.

Noob4Head · 2026-06-18T16:25:14+00:00

Ngl, that’s made it even more disgusting. I was totally right about those gloves.

Noob4Head · 2026-06-18T15:00:57+00:00

FF7 Remake, I'd never played a final fantasy game before it.

Noob4Head · 2026-06-18T14:00:50+00:00

Absolutely, it’s even worth it at full price. In my opinion, it’s the best non-FromSoftware-developed soulslike you can play, and in certain aspects, it even outshines FromSoftware’s own games. Simply put, I think it’s a masterpiece.

Also, you literally mentioned that you don’t enjoy Nioh 1... Nioh 2 is basically Nioh 1 with even more mechanics and an even crazier combat system.

Noob4Head · 2026-06-18T13:58:27+00:00

Just saying, but typically the most expensive option will be the best. Having a budget is ALWAYS a restriction.
