I finally decided to dabble in some Final Fantasy XV. I have beaten the game once already so this is a New Game+ of sorts, as my weapons from my previous playthrough have carried over. It makes for having some extra gear to sell, if nothing else. ^^;;

My only concern with this game is the amount of side quests vs the amount of plot. I'll try to balance plot and side content, but there may be a few streams where I do mostly side quests.

Like many other gamers I have issues with the plot and storytelling in this game, but I love the music, the relationship between our four main characters, and the big open world they live in. Chocobo riding and fishing are also a lot of fun, and I like letting Ignis drive while I go gaga over the beautiful scenery.

If I have one major issue with the game, as someone who plays FF games in a foreign language and relies on the subtitles, I wish the subtitles were more prolific. There are many lines of dialogue, often in or around battles, that don't have subtitles because of whatever reasons Squenix didn't add them. I have some basic knowledge of Japanese, so I can usually pick out words or phrases I understand, but still. I wish they'd just been translated and included.

That being said, I still enjoyed this game. I don't think there's a "bad" Final Fantasy game in the series that I've played, just games I've enjoyed to different degrees. I always try to give credit where credit is due and even if I don't absolutely love a game, I'm not going to shit all over it. Squenix will always get credit from me for trying new ideas and concepts, even if they end up not being very successful for some players.

ANYWAYS. This video kicks off a new series: Final Fantasy Friday! I will play part of a different Final Fantasy every Friday. I work nights and my partner works during the day, so streaming will typically start between 11:30pm and midnight PST of the Friday.

Maybe I'll play one game continuously, maybe I'll jump between games - who knows! I have everything between FF7 and 15 except for the online games and Tactics, so lots to choose from.
