The initial reveal of Final Fantasy XVI seemingly paints a picture that is night and day with its predecessor, Final Fantasy XV.
Bobby writes, "Final Fantasy 16 — The Rising Tide is a great expansion but it's on the short side."
The Nerd Stash: "Final Fantasy 16's DLC is a worthy adventure that adds a lot of jaw-dropping moments and more Hollywood-style fights to an already great RPG."
I don't know about ''great'' rpg.
Most epic fight sequences and presentation? Yes
Worst side quests ever? Yes
Boring traversal? Yes
Empty worlds? Yes
Demo is infinitely more mature than the actual game? Yes
FF16=MMO side quests + Devil May Cry Lite
There is no Roleplaying/decision making in this game.
No crafting there isnt even character builds because just like Dante/Bayonetta Clive has all skills and loadouts available to him.
Let’s be honest, this isn’t a “great” RPG. I am in the camp that it IS an RPG, no DMC game I’ve played is designed like this… but in terms of being a great RPG… well, I much prefer the RE-Trilogy over this.
That being said, I do think the DLCs have probably the best boss battles I’ve played in a game. Omega was crazy and the battle theme just amplified that for me. In the other hand, I’m struggling to think of a game that has a boss battle as great as Leviathan. Like, I played it on FF mode and it was sooooo intense and just a gorgeous and fun experience. The music was also top notch!
However, I really disliked most of everything of FF16. The Benedikta arc was fantastic, but after that the game was boring and a slog to get through. I think the boss battles were the best parts, but also inconsistent for me. Bahamut was peak for the base game, but everything else didn’t surpass that experience until you play the DLC bosses.
The 2 DLC's were great. 2 new eikon ability sets (leviathan and...) and a survival/bloody palace mode with Rising Tide were great as well.
From the best abilities to their rotation in combat, learn everything that makes the best build to use in The Rising Tide DLC for FF16.
"Final Fantasy XVI Seems Nothing Like FFXV,"
because it plays like DMC and that's not a good thing.

same effect and all.
looks game of thrones style and kinda mmo... more interested in the upcoming parts of ff7r.
I'd kill for a turn based RPG with Final Fantasy's budget again. A man can dream.
I kind of like it. It’s different.
Need to see more.
Game not like Final Fantasy at all. FFXV fight was better than this. This gameplay have just action like Devil May Cry even Bayonetta.
This is definitly not a Final Fantasy game. FFXV wasn`t and this one too. I`m huge FF fan by the way. After FFXIII still company going wrong direction on Final Fantasy brand.
