Have you heard of the critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV? The game includes an expanded free trial which you can play through the entirety of A Realm Reborn and the award winning Heavensward expansion up to level 60 for free with no restrictions on playtime!
Sounds great, however, this isn’t a review about that game - but rather a different fantasy from Yoshi-P and the team that brought you it.
That’s right - your Save Room boys are back and we’re doing a deep dive review on the Final Fantasy XVI. The latest entry in the 37 year franchise from Yoshi-P and CBUIII has spurned many debates: is it a real Final Fantasy; is the writing and portrayal of women good; does Clive fuck?
It will be a contentious title but we find plenty to love between the bombastic cinematics and fights, deep character work, story, and DMC-style action combat. Unfortunately though, you can’t take the MMO out of Yoshi-P, so there are side quests and pacing issues we found abound as a result.
Regardless, this is a must-play title and one that will be in many Game of the Year talks. Still a skeptic? Well then, just press play to accept the truth, Mythos.
